“
Mr Lorry knew Miss Pross to be very jealous, but he also knew her by this time to be, beneath the surface of her eccentricity, one of those unselfish creatures—found only among women—who will, for pure love and admiration, bind themselves willing slaves, to youth when they have lost it, to beauty that they never had, to accomplishments that they were never fortunate enough to gain, to bright hopes that never shone upon their own sombre lives 去书内

    On Sunday afternoon Mr. Lorry was to have dinner with Dr. Manette. When Mr. Lorry arrived, the only person in the house is Miss Pross. Then they started talking. Before the context, Miss Pross said, “ Manette is not worthy of such a daughter, which is no imputation on him, and multitudes of people turning up after him (I could have forgiven circumstances. But it really is doubly and trebly hard to have crowds enough; not that I have any fault to him), to take Ladybird's affections away from me.” We can see that Miss Pross was very jealous. She didn't want anyone to take Miss Lucy away from her and take away their relationship. But Mr. Lorry knew she was selfless and knew that there is nothing in it better than the faithful service of the heart. Miss Pross bowed to her duty and was devoted to Lucy. The context was Mr.Lorry’s praise to her. In my opinion, jealousy is not always bad. Like Miss Pross, her jealousy comes entirely from her love for Lucy, she doesn't want to leave her. Positive jealousy comes from love and care, an emotion that reflects love. But we also need to grasp the right degree, not to make jealousy towards the bad side.
