1 For a week after this, life was like a restless dream.
2 A week had gone by since she had first approached him.
3 About twenty or thirty of them a week were falling on London at present.
4 I do voluntary work three evenings a week for the Junior Anti-Sex League.
5 So the performance continued to happen, once a week quite regularly, whenever it was not impossible.
6 And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be REDUCED to twenty grammes a week.
7 He told her about the frigid little ceremony that Katharine had forced him to go through on the same night every week.
8 It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grammes a week.
9 Actually, as Winston was aware, the chocolate ration was to be reduced from thirty grammes to twenty at the end of the present week.
10 The thought flitted through Winston's mind that it would probably be quite easy to rent the room for a few dollars a week, if he dared to take the risk.
11 Winston's working week was sixty hours, Julia's was even longer, and their free days varied according to the pressure of work and did not often coincide.
12 To hang on from day to day and from week to week, spinning out a present that had no future, seemed an unconquerable instinct, just as one's lungs will always draw the next breath so long as there is air available.
13 The eyeless creature at the other table swallowed it fanatically, passionately, with a furious desire to track down, denounce, and vaporize anyone who should suggest that last week the ration had been thirty grammes.
14 Although no directive was ever issued, it was known that the chiefs of the Department intended that within one week no reference to the war with Eurasia, or the alliance with Eastasia, should remain in existence anywhere.
15 And sure enough, following on a gory description of the annihilation of a Eurasian army, with stupendous figures of killed and prisoners, came the announcement that, as from next week, the chocolate ration would be reduced from thirty grammes to twenty.
16 So, one evening every week, Winston spent four hours of paralysing boredom, screwing together small bits of metal which were probably parts of bomb fuses, in a draughty, ill-lit workshop where the knocking of hammers mingled drearily with the music of the telescreens.
17 And with good reason, for hardly a week passed in which 'The Times' did not carry a paragraph describing how some eavesdropping little sneak--'child hero' was the phrase generally used--had overheard some compromising remark and denounced its parents to the Thought Police.
