✾ Book 'The Time Machine' Wells 'La Machine à explorer le temps'

ⓘ I may be some time Ce sont les mots ("je risque d'en avoir pour un certain temps") qu'aurait prononcés le capitaine Oates lorsqu'il sortit de la tente qu'il occupait avec le capitaine Scott au cours de leur expédition de 1912 au pôle sud. Oates souffrait de gelures multiples et afin de ne pas ralentir la progression de ses camarades, il décida de se sacrifier en disparaissant dans la tourmente. Cet épisode est censé symboliser les qualités d'héroïsme et d'abnégation associées au caractère britannique. Aujourd'hui, on emploie cette formule par allusion à Oates sur le mode humoristique lorsque l'on sort d'une pièce ou bien lorsqu'on va aux toilettes.

Сочетание to pass the time указывает на период времени, который чем-либо заполнен в ожидании какого-то другого действия или события: There was an hour before the train so I passed the time reading newspapers. До поезда остался час, и я занялся чтением газет. Русскому сочетанию хорошо провести время соответствует английское сочетание to have a good time. (2.)

18 Time conjunctions

Временные союзы

↑ Subordinating conjunctions

↑ Adverbial clause of time

Союзы, вводящие временные придаточные предложения: when, after, as, as long as, as soon as, before, by the time (that), during the time (that), now (that), once, since, until/ till, whenever, while.

Некоторые особенности употребления временных союзов:

1)

а) as, when, while.

Союзы as, when и while ("когда")могут употребляться при описании "фоновой" ситуации, то есть такой ситуации, которая уже имела место раньше и продолжала иметь место, когда произошло событие, о котором говорится в главном предложении. В придаточных предложениях, вводимых этими союзами, используется обычно прошедшее продолженное время (Past continuous), но при while, as возможно также простое прошедшее (Past simple). Союз as обычно вводит не очень важную информацию; придаточное с as стоит в начале предложения.

But while people talked the wedding-day arrived. — Но пока шли разговоры, настал день свадьбы.

And then as I was hurrying off I heard him say, quite loudly, to the doctor: "I'll have no favourites on my ship". — А потом, когда я поспешно убегал оттуда, я услышал, как он довольно громко сказал доктору: "Я не потерплю любимчиков на корабле".

б) while.

Союз while употребляется, если речь идет об одновременных длительных действиях.

There was silence while one might count ten - the master was gathering his wrath. — Пауза длилась столько, что можно было досчитать до десяти - гнев хозяина нарастал.

в) as, when.

Союзы ( just) as и ( just) when употребляются при описании коротких одновременных действий.

And just as he was telling himself that, there came to the door a loud knock. — И как раз когда он говорил себе это, раздался громкий стук в дверь.

2) before, until, as long as.

а) Предложение с союзом before ("прежде чем") предполагает, что действие, о котором идет речь в придаточном предложении, имело место раньше, чем основное действие.

Before reaching the town the hunter branched away into a narrow footpath which led to the mountains. — Не доходя до города, охотник свернул на узкую тропинку, ведущую в горы.

б) Предложение с союзом until ("пока не") предполагает, что действие, о котором речь в придаточном предложении, продолжалось вплоть до основного события. Союз until имеет отрицательное значение, поэтому на русский язык переводится с отрицанием.

When the alarm was raised, she had had no time to get up-stairs: she hid in the west wing until every one was down on the lower floor. — Когда объявили тревогу, у нее не было времени подняться наверх: она пряталась в западном крыле, пока все не спустились на нижний этаж.

в) Если предложение введено союзом as long as ("пока"), то действие, о котором идет речь в главном предложении протекало параллельно с тем действием, о котором речь в придаточном, до окончания последнего.

You'll never be a painter as long as you live. — Ты никогда в жизни не станешь художником.

3) ... hardly... when/ before;... scarcely... when/ before;... no sooner... than.

а) Перечисленные конструкции употребляются (часто в сочетании с прошедшим совершенным (Past perfect)) для описания двух действий, одно из которых произошло сразу после другого.

This answer no sooner reached Britain, than the whole nation were transported with joy. — Как только эта новость достигла Британии, население возликовало.

I had hardly walked half-way towards the house when Sir Percival, who had withdrawn in the opposite direction, suddenly stopped and called me back. — Не успел я пройти половину пути до дома, как сэр Персиваль, который шел в противоположном направлении, неожиданно остановился и окликнул меня.

б) В письменном языке при употреблении таких конструкций иногда используется обратный порядок слов (см. Inversion):

No sooner was she out of sight, than Emma exclaimed, 'What an exquisite possession a good picture of her would be!' — Не успела она скрыться из виду, как Эмма воскликнула: " Каким исключительным достоянием мог бы быть ее портрет!"

Scarcely had Daisy opened her lips when a loud ring echoed through the house. — Не успела Дейзи раскрыть рта, как по дому эхом разнесся громкий звонок.
