He
удивительно, что главными человеческими
достоинствами в супружеской жизни
три четверти опрошенных англичан
назвали взаимопонимание, тактичность,
предупредительность, а главной помехой
для нее свыше половины опрошенных
сочли плохой характер.
Эти
данные, основанные на результатах
авторитетного социологического
исследования, приводит автор книги
“Английский характер” Джеффри То-
рер. При всей относительности любых
анкетных опросов, результаты их во
многом показательны. Торер, в частности,
обобщил мнение тысяч опрошенных о
том, какие качества они ценят в своих
супругах выше всего. Отвечая на вопрос
о мужьях, 33 % английских жен назвали
понимание, 28 — заботливость, 24 —
юмор, 23 — честность, 21 — верность, 19 —
щедрость, 17 — любовь, 14 — терпимость.
По мнению английских мужей, жена прежде
всего должна быть хорошей хозяйкой
(29%), затем непосредственно следуют
такие качества, как уживчивый характер
(26), взаимопонимание (23), любовь (22),
верность (21), внешность (21), умение
готовить (20), ум (18).
С
другой стороны, английские мужья больше
всего осуждают в своих женах такие
черты, как сварливость (29 %), глупость
(24), сплетничество (21), мотовство (17),
эгоизм (16). Жены же считают наиболее
нетерпимыми недостатками своих
мужей эгоизм (56%), недостаток ума (20),
инертность, нежелание помогать по
дому (18), неопрятность (17), нечестность
(16).

WAYS
OF HOLIDAY-MAKING
If
you are tired of your usual holiday routine, there are many things
you can do to vary it. Some take a certain amount of physical
energy, but think of the good it will do you.
People
say there’s nothing to compare with a camping holiday. Personally
I think it’s only for the young, and will make them appreciate
home comforts. Be prepared for damp, mosquitoes, beetles and cow
dung, which is never noticed until the following morning. This
sort of holiday teaches the young how to survive, and strangely
enough they seem to enjoy it, finding great pleasure in making
bonfires and cooking barbecues.
Bicycle
holidays are an excellent way of taking exercise. Bear in mind that
you are not a professional, and don’t try to do more than 30 or 40
miles a day. Keep to side roads wherever possible, and don’t
overtire yourself.
A
walking holiday, in good weather with a pleasant companion or two,
will do you more good than any other. Select your shoes carefully.
Your rucksack should contain a change of everything, but nothing
that is not absolutely essential.
The
seaside is good for most people, but definitely bad for some. Take
the sun and the sea gradually, and don’t stay on the beach for too
long. In fact, short holidays taken often probably do you more good
than an annual long one. After the first week or two, you begin to
get bored, sunburnt, and lazy.
It’s
a good idea to have a hobby or interest at the seaside. Take a skin
diving mask and see how many sorts of fish you can find. Walk
along the beach collecting shells or interesting pebbles.
