Based on an episode from Vanity Fair by W. Thackeray.

1. Мать Бекки была француженка, и девушка говорила по-французски так, словно она всю жизнь прожила в Париже. 2. Когда Бекки было шестнадцать лет, друзья ее отца обращались с ней, как со взрослой женщиной (как если бы она была взрослой женщиной), и часто отказывались (to give up) от самых веселых балов и пирушек (parties), чтобы провести с ней ветер. 3. После смерти отца Бекки переехала в Чизик (Chiswick), в пансион мисс Пинкертон, которая взяла девушку для того, чтобы она говорила по-французски с ее ученицами. 4. Когда мисс Пинкертон услышала, как Бекки играет на рояле, она подумала, что было бы желательно, чтобы девушка учила ее воспитанниц также и музыке. 5. Мисс Пинкертон никогда не была добра к Бекки и всячески (in every way possible) старалась оскорбить и унизить ее. Она бы иначе относилась к девушке, если бы та была дочерью богатых родителей. 6. «Что бы Эмилия ни говорила,—думала Бекки, —я знаю, что мисс Пинкертон ненавидит меня. Она никогда не взяла бы меня, если бы моя работа не была для нее выгодна». 7. Бекки тоже ненавидела мисс Пинкертон и относилась к ней, как к своему злейшему врагу (worst enemy). 8. Бекки уехала бы из Чизика, но она прекрасно понимала, что для нее очень важно получить хорошее образование. «Какой бы несчастной я себя ни чувствовала у мисс Пинкертон, мне придется некоторое время здесь оставаться»,—думала Бекки. 9. Как ни выгодна была для мисс Пинкертон работа Бекки, она решила, наконец, что будет лучше, если девушка уедет из Чизика. Она понимала, что для того, чтобы Бекки не оказала плохого влияния на ее учениц, им лучше расстаться. 10. Когда Бекки выразила желание, чтобы мисс Пинкертон нашла ей место гувернантки, та немедленно нашла такое место н таким образом избавилась от девушки.
