I haven't seen Cathy since then. Once I went to the Heights to visit her, but I was not allowed to see her. About six weeks ago I had a long conversation with Zillah, the housekeeper, who gave me news of Cathy. It appeared that, when she arrived at the Heights, she did her best to look after her sick husband. He was obviously dying, although Heathcliff refused to call the doctor. Only a few weeks after her arrival, Linton died in the night, with only Cathy by his bedside. Heathcliff inherited all of Linton's, and what had been Cathy's, fortune, so Cathy is now very poor. 去书内

    “Once I went to the Heights to visit her, but I was not allowed to see her.” ​  once  表示“曾经”,引出一次失败的探望经历;被动语态  was not allowed  突出呼啸山庄的封闭与对外界的排斥,暗示凯西失去了人身自由。 “It appeared that, when she arrived...” ​  It appeared that  引导的从句表明信息来源是间接的,增加了叙事的悬念,暗示凯西刚到山庄时发生了不为人知的事情。
