B. Translation of the Passage (p. 196, titre, l. 1 - p. 197, l. 15):

"Lame Dennis"

In summer, it was happier for Dennis., easier too. He would spend his days seated outside, on his chair on the grass, right under the broad apple tree, which always gave shade, so long and leafy were its arms. Then Dennis would find himself included in the game. Without taking part, without ever running on romping about like everybody. But they would play around him and, sometimes, almost with him.
It was strange. No one would have wanted to recognize that Dennis was crippled, with twisted legs, that he oculdn't even get up off that seat that had become his world and his boundaries. They would stay near him wouthout ever needing to be reminded. If they played some game, Dennis was always either the referee or the blind one with his eyes covered or the frantic and extremely interested spectator. There were always at least twelve who would play on that play area. Dennis's brothers and sisters and also some little neighbors. From eight o'clock in the morning and until sundown at seven or eight o'clock in the evening. A wild, perpetual, noisy, sometimes thundering round. A symphony of shouts, laughter, tears, quarrels, reconciliations. Girls, boys, all full of energy and exuberance. And yet never a mean word toward Dennis, never a laugh at seeing him sometimes grimacing under the effort to get up.
He had become such a normal part of everyone's life that no one dreamed of hurting him, even with words.
