тон, хорошие манеры). You should just go to a first night (тебе просто
необходимо посетить премьеру; first night — первое представление) and see
the society people (и посмотреть на светских людей) how they mob the
photographers (как они окружают фотографов; to mob — толпиться,
нападать толпой), cabinet ministers (министры, члена кабинета) and judges (и
судьи) and everyone (и все: «каждый»). They may pretend (они могут
притворяться) they don't like it (что им не нравится), but just see them posing
(но только посмотри, как они позируют) when they think (когда /они/ думают,
что) the camera-man's got his eye on them (/что/ фотограф навел свой объектив:
«глаз» на них)."

настойчивый, упорный, неподдающийся).

могла она). She had her clothes made in Paris (она шила свою одежду в
Париже), both for the stage (как для сцены; both — оба, и тот и другой, тоже)

Julia came across a photograph of herself as Beatrice. It was the only
Shakespearean part she had ever played. She knew that she didn't look well in
costume; she could never understand why, because no one could wear modern
clothes as well as she could. She had her clothes made in Paris, both for the
stage and for private life, and the dressmakers said that no one brought them
more orders. She had a lovely figure, everyone admitted that; she was fairly
tall for a woman, and she had long legs.
It was a pity (как жалко; pity — жалость, сожаление, печальный факт) she
had never had a chance (что ей никогда не выпал шанс: «не было шанса») of
playing Rosalind (сыграть Розалинду), she would have looked all right (она бы
замечательно выглядела) in boy's clothes (одетая в мужскую одежду: «в
одежде юноши»), of course it was too late now (конечно, сейчас было уже
слишком поздно), but perhaps (но возможно) it was just as well (это было даже
и к лучшему) she hadn't risked it (что она не отважилась на это; to risk —
рисковать, отважиться). Though you would have thought (хотя, можно было
бы подумать), with her brilliance (с ее способностями; brilliance — яркость,

великолепие, блеск), her roguishness (ее шаловливостью), her sense of comedy
(ее чувством комедийного: «комедии») she would have been perfect (она
должна была быть совершенной). The critics hadn't really liked her Beatrice
(критикам на самом деле не понравилась ее Беатриче). It was that damned
blank verse (все из-за того чертового белого стиха; verse — стихотворная
строка, стих, строфа). Her voice (ее голос), her rather low rich voice (ее
достаточно низкий глубокий грудной голос), with that effective hoarseness (с
той эффектной хрипотцой; effective — действенный, эффективный,
впечатляющий), which wrung your heart (который терзал /ваше/ сердце; to
wring (wrung, wrung) — скручивать, выжимать, причинять страдания) in an
emotional passage (в /особенно/ эмоциональном месте; passage —
прохождение, переезд, место, отрывок в книге и т.п.) or gave so much
humour to a comedy line (или придавал так много юмора комедийной реплике:
«строчке»), seemed to sound all wrong (казалось, звучал совершенно неверно)
when she spoke it (когда она произносила его /белый стих/).
