TRANSLATE THE FOLLOWING WORD-COMBINATIONS INTO RUSSIAN, AND REPRODUCE THE CONTEXTS IN WHICH THEY OCCUR:
on a larger scale = больше, выше
Miss Darcy was tall, and on a larger scale than Elizabeth; and, though little more than sixteen, her figure was formed, and her appearance womanly and graceful.
to do away = проходить
to stand ground = держаться стойко, не сдавать своих позиций
All Elizabeth's anger against Mr. Bingley had been long done away; but had she still felt any, it could hardly have stood its ground against the unaffected cordiality with which he expressed himself on seeing her again.
diffidence = застенчивость
Mr. Darcy called on his sister to join him in expressing their wish of seeing Mr. and Mrs. Gardiner, and Miss Bennet, to dinner at Pemberley, before they left the country. Miss Darcy, though with a diffidence which marked her little in the habit of giving invitations, readily obeyed.
to engage for = пообещать, гарантировать
Mrs. Gardiner seeing in her husband, who was fond of society, a perfect willingness to accept the invitation, she ventured to engage for her attendance, and the day after the next was fixed on.
chief of concerns = причина разлада в отношениях
With respect to Wickham, the travellers soon found that he was not held there in much estimation; for though the chief of his concerns with the son of his patron were imperfectly understood, it was yet a well-known fact that, on his quitting Derbyshire, he had left many debts behind him, which Mr. Darcy afterwards discharged.
to make out = понять, разобрать
As for Elizabeth, her thoughts were at Pemberley this evening more than the last; and the evening, though as it passed it seemed long, was not long enough to determine her feelings towards one in that mansion; and she lay awake two whole hours endeavouring to make them out.
acrimony = желчность, едкость
Elizabeth felt grateful to Mr. Darcy; she felt grateful not merely for having once loved her, but for loving her still well enough to forgive all the acrimony of her manner in rejecting him
to venture smth. = рисковать
Mrs. Annesley talked to Elizabeth and Mrs. Gardiner. Miss Darcy looked as if she wished to have enough courage to join in it; and sometimes did venture a short sentence when there was least danger of its being heard.
to be uppermost = преобладающий
Miss Bingley asked Elizabeth about the officers. In Darcy's presence she dared not mention Wickham's name; but Elizabeth instantly comprehended that he was uppermost in her thoughts;
a shrewish look = злобный взгляд
Miss bingley said that Elizabeth’s teeth were tolerable, but not out of the common way; and as for her eyes, which had sometimes been called so fine, she could never see anything extraordinary in them. They had a sharp, shrewish look, which she didn't like at all;
