"'Goldstein!' bellowed the boy as the door closed on him. But what most struck Winston was the look of helpless fright on the woman's grayish face." (Orwell 24).
Winston, along with the woman in this passage, is afraid of the children in the 1984 of Big Brother. They are, like these children, being turned into strong supporters of Big Brother and ThoughtPolice. The children are the future of the society, and Winston sees that they are turning more and more to Big Brother, each generation becoming more loyal to him and to the Party. This means he is afraid for the future of the society and its sanity.
