translation.en: He worked nights at Vauxhall Motors in Luton and demanded total silence throughout the house, so that when we came home from school at 3:30 in the afternoon, we would huddle beside the TV, and rather like safe-crackers, we would twiddle with the volume control knob on the TV so it was almost inaudible.
translation.zh: 他在卢顿的沃克斯豪尔公司上夜班， 因此他要求在白天房子里要绝对安静。 这就使得，当我们下午三点 放学回家后，会挤在电视旁， 像破解保险箱的窃贼似的， 我们会转动电视上的声音调节钮， 来让它的声音几乎听不见。
