    USAGE:
    (1.) Глагол to look в значении "выглядеть как-либо, иметь какой-либо вид" 2. употребляется с последующим прилагательным: to look ill (young, happy). B сочетании хорошо выглядеть (о внешности) глагол to look употребляется с прилагательным well: she looks well она выглядит хорошо/у нее здоровый вид. Сочетание to look good обозначает быть на вид хорошего качества: the meat looks good мясо на вид свежее/хорошее/неиспорченное. (2.) Русское предложение Как он выглядит? имеет разные английские соответствия: в случае, если имеется в виду человек незнакомый (и предложение соответственно обозначает Каков он из себя?), то употребляется What does he look like? B том случае, если человек знакомый (и предложение обозначает Как он себя чувствует?), эта фраза соответствует How does he look? (3.) Выражение to look like smth соответствует русскому похоже: it looks like rain (snow, storm) похоже, что будет дождь (снег, гроза).
    WAYS OF DOING THINGS:
    Глагол to look даёт общее, нейтральное название действия "смотрения", не конкретизируя его характера. Характер этого действия находит выражение в ряде других глаголов, таких как to glance и to give a glance, to gaze, to stare, to gape, to glimpse, to scowl, to squint.
    To squint - "посмотреть искоса, пристально, прищурившись; смотреть на что-либо, кого-либо, чтобы лучше разглядеть": she squinted at the paper but it was imposible to read what was written there она прищурившись посмотрела на документ, но прочитать то, что там было написано было невозможно; squinting through the frosted glass window I could just make out my sister's car in the distance вглядываясь через замёрзшее стекло окна, я мог только рассмотреть вдали машину моей сестры.
    To glance, to give a glance - "бросить беглый взгляд; посмотреть бегло, скользя глазами вверх и вниз": during the meal he kept glancing at the door, obviously expecting someone to walk in за едой он всё время посматривал на дверь, явно ожидая, что кто-то войдёт; I saw them glancing at each other as if they knew something I did not я видел, как они бросали друг другу быстрые взгляды, как будто знали что-то, чего я не знал; glancing into the kitchen she realized no one was home заглянув в кухню, она поняла, что никого дома не было; Greg glanced sideways at his friend, trying to catch his eye Грэг искоса взглянул на друга, стараясь поймать его взгляд; a glance at my watch told one it was nearly five o'clock взглянув на часы, я увидел, что было уже пять часов.
    To shoot/cast/throw a glance - "бросить быстрый взгляд, посмотреть вверх и вниз": she shot a quick glance over her shoulder to see who was following her она быстро взглянула через плечо, чтобы увидеть, кто за ней шел; she cast a glance around the room, taking in her surrounding она быстро окинула комнату взглядом, чтобы понять, кто её окружает.
    To gape - "глазеть; смотреть на что-либо, разинув рот от удивления": she stood there gaping at me too shocked to speak она в изумлении уставилась на меня, не в состоянии сказать что-либо; Jim gaped, open-mouthed, trying to take in what they had told him Джим (обалдело) смотрел на них, широко разинув рот, пытаясь понять, что они ему сказали; I could only gape in astonishment as he picked up the gun and pointed it at me в изумлении я уставился на него, видя как он схватил пистолет и направил его на меня.
    To peep, to have a peep - "украдкой, быстро бросить взгляд, особенно через узкое и маленькое отверстие": the house seemed empty, but I peeped in through the window to see if anyone was there дом, казалось, был пуст, но я заглянул внутрь через окно, чтобы убедиться, что там никого нет; close your eyes, I have a surprise for you; no peeping! закрой глаза и не подсматривай, у меня для тебя сюрприз; she felt tempted to have a peep at her neighbours' garden у нее был большой соблазн украдкой заглянуть в сад соседей; the children could never attend their parents' parties, but they were allowed to peep through the door дети не имели права участвовать, когда у родителей были гости, но им разрешалось заглянуть в дверь.
    To stare - "смотреть, вглядываться во что-либо, смотреть долгое время не сводя глаз": don't stare at people, it is very rude нельзя, уставившись, смотреть на людей - это очень невежливо; as the fire destroyed the house we just stood and stared in disbelief пока огонь пожирал наш дом, мы просто стояли и не сводили с него глаз, не веря тому, что происходит; every night it is the same, staring up at the ceiling, unable to sleep каждую ночь повторяется одно и то же, я лежу, устремив глаза в потолок, будучи не в состоянии заснуть.
    To gaze - "пристально, продолжительно разглядывать что-либо, не отводя взгляда, особенно потому, что объект вызывает гнев, раздражение или большой интерес, разглядывать, уставиться, устремить взгляд": they lay down and gazed at the clouds floating overhead они лежали и бездумно смотрели на проплывающие над ними облака; Amy gazed steadily at the singer unable to believe she was so close to him Эми пристально смотрела на певца, не веря, что он стоит рядом с ней; she sat and gazed into the distance lost in thought она сидела глубоко задумавшись, всматриваясь в даль; I could see from the difrection of his gaze that he was looking at my new car по направлению его пристального взгляда я понимал, что он разглядывал мою новую машину.
    To peer - "с трудом разглядывать что-либо, особенно, если вы не очень хорошо видите или если недостаточно света": Tom peered into the dark corridor to see what was making the noise Том всматривался в темный корридор, чтобы разглядеть откуда исходил шум; Jane peered at the writing under the picture Джейн старалась рассмотреть надпись под картиной.
    To scowl - "злобно смотреть на что-либо, кого-либо; недовольно хмуриться": he scowled and told John to get out он злобно/сердито нахмурился и выгнал Джона; "Oh, what do you want? " said the old man scowling "Что вам нужно?

    To glare - "сердито и долго, не отрывая глаз, смотреть на кого-либо, что-либо": she didn't say anything, but just sat there glaring at me она ничего не сказала, просто сидела и сердито смотрела на меня; she sat down and glared fiercely, knowing that the witness I had beaten her она села и свирепо посмотрела на свидетеля, зная, что это он побил ее; as soon as he heard this, he glared fiercely in our direction как только он это услышал, он свирепо посмотрел на нас

  • 87 не твоя печаль

    прост.
    it is not your concern (business); that's no concern of yours; that's naught for you to fret over

    - Как ты одна жить будешь? - Катя их обрезала: - Не ваша печаль. Никакого мне вашего жениха не надо. (П. Бажов, Малахитовая шкатулка) — 'You can't live here all alone.' But Katya cut them short. 'That's naught for you to fret over. I want none of your suitors.'

    Было обидно, что приезжая гордячка так легко отказалась от даровой роскоши, ни о чём не просила, всё вышвырнула. - Спать-то на чём будете? - спросила Ольга Матвеевна. - А это уж не ваша печаль, - ответила Анна Ивановна. (В. Панова, Кружилиха) — There was something humiliating in the way this proud lodger had scorned all this free luxury, thrown everything out of the room, and asked for nothing. 'What will you sleep on?' she asked. 'That's no concern of yours,' answered Anna Ivanovna.

  • 88 McKay, Donald

    SUBJECT AREA: Ports and shipping
    [br]
    b. 4 September 1810 Shelburne, Nova Scotia, Canada
    d. 20 September 1880 Hamilton, Massachusetts, USA
    [br]
    American shipbuilder of Western Ocean packets and clippers.
    [br]
    Of Scottish stock, McKay was the son of a farmer and the grandson of a loyalist officer who had left the United States after the War of Independence. After some elementary shipwright training in Nova Scotia, McKay travelled to New York to apprentice to the great American shipbuilder Isaac Webb, then building some of the outstanding ships of the nineteenth century. At the age of 21 and a fully fledged journeyman, McKay again set out and worked in various shipyards before joining William Currier in 1841 to establish a yard in Newburyport, Massachusetts. He moved on again in 1843 to form another venture, the yard of McKay and Pickett in the same locality.
    In 1844 McKay came to know Enoch Train of Boston, then proprietor of a fleet of fast clipper ships on the US A-to-Liverpool run. He persuaded McKay to set out on his own and promised to support him with orders for ships. The partnership with Pickett was dissolved amicably and Donald McKay opened the yard in East Boston, from which some of the world's fastest ships were to be launched. McKay's natural ability as a shipwright had been enhanced by the study of mathematics and engineering drawing, something he had learned from his wife Albenia Boole, the daughter of another shipbuilder. He was not too proud to learn from other masters on the East Coast such as William H.Webb and John Willis Griffiths. The first ships from East Boston included the Washington Irvine of 1845 and the Anglo Saxon of 1846; they were well built and had especially comfortable emigrant accommodation. However, faster ships were to follow, almost all three-masted, fully rigged ships with very fine or "extreme" lines, including the Flying Cloud for the Californian gold rush of 1851, the four-masted barque Great Republic; then, c. 1854, the Lightning was ordered by James Baines of Liverpool for his Black Ball Line. The Lightning holds to this day the speed record for a square-rigged ship's daily run. As the years passed the shipbuilding scene changed, and while McKay's did build some iron ships for the US Navy, they became much less profitable and in 1875 the yard closed down, with McKay retiring to take up farming.
