Английский язык с Э. Хемингуэем. Старик и море

Франк Илья

They walked up the road together to the old man's shack (они поднялись по дороге к хижине старика; shack — лачуга, хижина) and went in through its open door (и вошли внутрь через ее открытые двери). The old man leaned the mast with its wrapped sail against the wall (старик прислонил мачту с обмотанным вокруг нее парусом к стене) and the boy put the box and the other gear beside it (а мальчик положил ящик и другое оборудование =снасти рядом /с мачтой/). The mast was nearly as long as the one room of the shack (мачта была практически такой же длины, что и комната лачуги). The shack was made of the tough bud shields of the royal palm which are called guano (хижина

была сделана из крепких листьев королевской пальмы, которая называется гуано; bud — почка) and in it there was a bed (и внутри была кровать), a table (стол), one chair (один стул), and a place on the dirt floor to cook with charcoal (и место = выемка на грязном полу, где готовилась еда на древесном угле). On the brown walls of the flattened, overlapping leaves of the sturdy fibered guano (на коричневых стенах из сплющенных заходящих один на другой листьев прочных волокон гуано; flattened — сплющенный; sturdy — прочный, крепкий; fiber — древесное волокно) there was a picture in color of the Sacred Heart of Jesus (висела: «была» цветная картина Священного Сердца Иисуса = Сердца Господня) and another of the Virgin of Cobre (и другая — /Святая/ Дева из Кобре). These were relics of his wife (они принадлежали его жене; relic — след, остаток). Once there had been a tinted photograph of his wife on the wall (раньше на стене еще висела раскрашенная фотография его жены; to tint — окрашивать) but he had taken it down because it made him too lonely to see it (но он ее снял, потому что смотреть на нее было слишком одиноко = тоскливо; to take down) and it was on the shelf in the corner under his clean shirt (и она теперь была на полке в углу под его чистой рубашкой).

"What do you have to eat (что у тебя есть поесть)?" the boy asked.

"A pot of yellow rice with fish (чашка желтого риса с рыбой). Do you want some (хочешь немного)?"

"No. I will eat at home (я поем дома). Do you want me to make the fire (хочешь, я разведу огонь)?"

"No. I will make it later on (я разведу его позже). Or I may eat the rice cold (или же я могу съесть рис холодным)."

"May I take the cast net (можно взять сеть)?"

"Of course (конечно)."

There was no cast net and the boy remembered when they had sold it (никакой сети не было, и мальчик помнил, когда они ее продали). But they went through this fiction every day (но они проходили через эту выдумку каждый день). There was no pot of yellow rice and fish and the boy knew this too (не было чашки с желтым рисом и рыбой, и мальчик об этом тоже знал).

"Eighty-five is a lucky number (восемьдесят

пять — счастливое число)," the old man said. "How would you like to see me bring one in that dressed out over a thousand pounds (как тебе понравится увидеть меня с выпотрошенной рыбой весом более тысячи фунтов)?"

"I'll get the cast net and go for sardines (я возьму сеть и пойду за сардинами). Will you sit in the sun in the doorway (ты посидишь на солнце на пороге)?"

"Yes. I have yesterday's paper (у меня есть вчерашняя газета) and I will read the baseball (и я почитаю о бейсболе)."

The boy did not know whether yesterday's paper was a fiction too (мальчик не знал, была ли вчерашняя газета тоже выдумкой). But the old man brought it out from under the bed (но старик достал ее из-под кровати).

"Perico gave it to me at the bodega (Перико дал мне ее в винной лавке; bodega — исп. винный погребок)," he explained (объяснил он).

"I'll be back when I have the sardines (я вернусь, когда наловлю сардин). I'll keep yours and mine together on ice (я положу твои и мои вместе на лед: «я буду хранить…») and we can share them in the morning (и мы сможем поделиться ими утром = съесть их вместе; to share — делиться; использовать совместно). When I come back you can tell me about the baseball (когда я вернусь, ты расскажешь мне о бейсболе)."

"The Yankees cannot lose («Янки» не могут проиграть)."

"But I fear the Indians of Cleveland (но я боюсь «Индейцев» из Кливленда)."

"Have faith in the Yankees my son (верь в «Янки», сынок). Think of the great DiMaggio (думай о великом Ди Маджо)."

"I fear both the Tigers of Detroit and the Indians of Cleveland (я боюсь двух /команд/: «Тигров» из Детройта и «Индейцев» из Кливленда)."

"Be careful or you will fear even the Reds of Cincinnati and the White Sax of Chicago (будь осторожен, иначе будешь бояться даже «Краснокожих» из Цинциннати и «Белых Чулок» из Чикаго).”

"You study it and tell me when I come back (ты изучи это и расскажешь мне, когда я вернусь)."

share [SFq], Cleveland ['klJvlqnd], Cincinnati [sInsI'nxtI]
