Метод Франка - Milne. Winnie-the-Pooh

Roo jumped up and down in his seat for a little while and then began again.

“Hallo, Piglet!” he squeaked.

Piglet waved a paw at him, being too busy to say anything.

“Hallo, Eeyore!” said Roo.

Eeyore nodded gloomily at him (Иа мрачно посмотрел на него). “It will rain soon, you see if it doesn't,” he said (скоро пойдет дождь, видишь ли, если /уже/ не идет, — сказал он).

Roo looked to see if it didn't (Ру посмотрел, чтобы увидеть, не идет ли дождь), and it didn't (и он не шел), so he said “Hallo, Owl (поэтому он сказал: привет, Филин)!”—and Owl said “Hallo, my little fellow,” in a kindly way (а Филин любезно сказал: привет, мой малыш; kind — добрый, любезный, сердечный ), and went on telling Christopher Robin about an accident (и продолжил рассказывать Кристоферу Робину о несчастном случае) which had nearly happened to a friend of his (который чуть /не/ случился с одним его другом) whom Christopher Robin didn't know (которого Кристофер Робин не знал), and Kanga said to Roo (а Кенга сказала Ру), “Drink up your milk first, dear, and talk afterwards (выпей сначала свое молоко, дорогой, а потом поговоришь).” So Roo, who was drinking his milk (поэтому Ру, который пил /свое/ молоко), tried to say that he could do both at once (попытался сказать, что он может делать и то и другое сразу)... and had to be patted on the back (и его пришлось похлопать по спинке) and dried for quite a long time afterwards (а потом весьма долго вытирать).

Eeyore nodded gloomily at him. “It will rain soon, you see if it doesn't,” he said.

Roo looked to see if it didn't, and it didn't, so he said “Hallo, Owl!”—and Owl said “Hallo, my little fellow,” in a kindly way, and went on telling Christopher Robin about an accident which had nearly happened to a friend of his whom Christopher Robin didn't know, and Kanga said to Roo, “Drink up your milk first, dear, and talk afterwards.” So Roo, who was drinking his milk, tried to say that he could do both at once... and had to be patted on the back and dried for quite a long time afterwards.

When they had all nearly eaten enough (когда они все съели почти достаточно), Christopher Robin banged on the table with his spoon (Кристофер Робин постучал по столу своей ложкой), and everybody stopped talking and was very silent (и все прекратили говорить и /очень/ замолчали), except Roo who was just finishing a loud attack of hiccups (кроме Ру, у которого как раз заканчивался долгий приступ икоты) and trying to look as if it was one of Rabbit's relations (и /он/ пытался сделать вид, как будто это /икает/ один из родственников Кролика).

“This party,” said Christopher Robin (эта вечеринка, — сказал Кристофер Робин), “is a party because of what someone did (вечеринка в честь того, что сделал кое-кто), and we all know who it was (и мы все знаем, кто это был), and it's his party, because of what he did (и это его вечеринка благодаря тому, что он сделал), and I've got a present for him and here it is (а у меня есть подарок для него, и вот он).” Then he felt about a little and whispered (потом он пошарил немного и прошептал; to feel — ощупывать, осязать, трогать, прикасаться; чувствовать, ощущать ), “Where is it (где он)?”

While he was looking (пока он искал), Eeyore coughed in an impressive way and began to speak (Иа впечатляюще откашлялся и начал говорить).

enough [I'nAf], hiccup ['hIkAp], impressive [Im'presIv]

When they had all nearly eaten enough, Christopher Robin banged on the table with his spoon, and everybody stopped talking and was very silent, except Roo who was just finishing a loud attack of hiccups and trying to look as if it was one of Rabbit's relations.

“This party,” said Christopher Robin, “is a party because of what someone did, and we all know who it was, and it's his party, because of what he did, and I've got a present for him and here it is.” Then he felt about a little and whispered, “Where is it?”

While he was looking, Eeyore coughed in an impressive way and began to speak.

“Friends,” he said (друзья, — сказал он), “including oddments, it is a great pleasure (включая остатки, это большое удовольствие; to include — включать / в себя / ), or perhaps I had better say it has been a pleasure so far (или, может быть, мне лучше сказать, что это было удовольствием до сих пор), to see you at my party (видеть вас на моей вечеринке). What I did was nothing (то, что я сделал, это ничего = это мелочь / пустяк ). Any of you—except Rabbit and Owl and Kanga—would have done the same (любой из вас, за исключением Кролика и Филина и Кенги, — сделал бы то же самое). Oh, and Pooh (а, и Пуха). My remarks do not, of course, apply to Piglet and Roo, because they are too small (мои ремарки, разумеется, не касаются Пятачка и Ру, потому что они слишком маленькие). Any of you would have done the same (любой из вас сделал бы то же самое). But it just happened to be Me (но просто случилось так, что это оказался Я). It was not, I need hardly say (это случилось, едва ли мне нужно говорить), with an idea of getting what Christopher Robin is looking for now (не с намерением получить то, что сейчас ищет Кристофер Робин)”—and he put his front leg to his mouth (и он приложил свою переднюю ногу ко /своему/ рту) and said in a loud whisper (и сказал громким шепотом), “Try under the table (попробуй /поискать/ под столом)”—“that I did what I did (что я сделал то, что /я/ сделал) —but because I feel that we should all do what we can to help (а потому что я чувствую, что нам всем следует делать то, что мы можем = что в наших силах , /чтобы/ помочь). I feel that we should all— (я считаю, что нам всем следует)”

including [In'klHdIN], pleasure ['pleZq], apply [q'plaI]

“Friends,” he said, “including oddments, it is a great pleasure, or perhaps I had better say it has been a pleasure so far, to see you at my party. What I did was nothing. Any of you—except Rabbit and Owl and Kanga—would have done the same. Oh, and Pooh. My remarks do not, of course, apply to Piglet and Roo, because they are too small. Any of you would have done the same. But it just happened to be Me. It was not, I need hardly say, with an idea of getting what Christopher Robin is looking for now”—and he put his front leg to his mouth and said in a loud whisper, “Try under the table”—“that I did what I did—but because I feel that we should all do what we can to help. I feel that we should all—”

“H—hup!” said Roo accidentally (ик! — сказал нечаянно Ру).

“Roo, dear!” said Kanga reproachfully (Ру, дорогой! — сказала укоризненно Кенга).

“Was it me?” asked Roo (разве это был я? — спросил Ру), a little surprised (немного удивленный).

“What's Eeyore talking about (о чем говорит Иа)?” Piglet whispered to Pooh (прошептал Пятачок Пуху).

“I don't know (я не знаю),” said Pooh rather dolefully (сказал Пух довольно уныло).

“I thought this was your party (я думал, это твоя вечеринка).”

“I thought it was once (я думал когда-то, что моя). But I suppose it isn't (но /я/ полагаю, что это не так).”

“I'd sooner it was yours than Eeyore's,” said Piglet (я предпочел бы, чтобы она была твоей, нежели Иа, — сказал Пятачок).

“So would I,” said Pooh (я тоже, — сказал Пух).

reproachfully [rI'prquCfulI], dolefully ['dqulfulI], yours [jLz]

“H—hup!” said Roo accidentally.

“Roo, dear!” said Kanga reproachfully.

“Was it me?” asked Roo, a little surprised.

“What's Eeyore talking about?” Piglet whispered to Pooh.

“I don't know,” said Pooh rather dolefully.

“I thought this was your party.”

“I thought it was once . But I suppose it isn't.”

“I'd sooner it was yours than Eeyore's,” said Piglet.

“So would I,” said Pooh.

“H—hup!” said Roo again (ик! — сказал Ру снова).

“AS—I—WAS—SAYING (КАК Я ГОВОРИЛ),” said Eeyore loudly and sternly (сказал Иа громко и строго), “as I was saying when I was interrupted by various Loud Sounds (как я говорил, когда меня перебили разные Громкие Звуки), I feel that— (я считаю, что)”

“Here it is!” cried Christopher Robin excitedly (вот он! — крикнул взволнованно Кристофер Робин). “Pass it down to silly old Pooh (передайте его дальше глупому старому Пуху). It's for Pooh (это для Пуха).”

“For Pooh?” said Eeyore (для Пуха? — спросил Иа).

“Of course it is (конечно, для него). The best bear in all the world (/для/ лучшего медведя во всем мире / на всем белом свете).”

sternly [stWnlI], interrupt ["Intq'rApt], various ['vFqrIqs]

“H—hup!” said Roo again.

“AS—I—WAS—SAYING,” said Eeyore loudly and sternly, “as I was saying when I was interrupted by various Loud Sounds, I feel that—”

“Here it is!” cried Christopher Robin excitedly. “Pass it down to silly old Pooh. It's for Pooh.”

“For Pooh?” said Eeyore.

“Of course it is. The best bear in all the world.”

“I might have known,” said Eeyore (я мог бы знать = догадаться , — сказал Иа). “After all, one can't complain (в конце концов, нечего жаловаться). I have my friends (у меня есть /мои/ друзья). Somebody spoke to me only yesterday (кто-то говорил со мной только вчера). And was it last week or the week before (и это было на прошлой неделе, или неделей раньше) that Rabbit bumped into me and said 'Bother (когда Кролик налетел на / врезался в меня и сказал: тьфу-ты)!' The Social Round (Социальное Окружение[56]). Always something going on (всегда что-то происходит).”
