разг.совершенно, крайне, в высшей степениHe smiled at me as cheery as you please, and I dared not stir my lips for fear I would break out into a shivering fit. (J. Conrad, ‘Lord Jim’, ch.

And the story was a good little story; it had all the right elements in it, the good-looking boy, the mysterious beautiful woman, the wild nights at the flat, the last fatal scene, the subsequent revelations and the moral of it all; it was as neat as you please. (J. B. Priestley, ‘Wonder Hero’, ch. II) — Сама по себе эта маленькая трагедия была очень неплоха. Она содержала все необходимые компоненты: молодого человека приятной наружности, таинственную красавицу, безумные ночи в ее доме, заключительную роковую сцену, дальнейшие разоблачения и вытекающую из всего этого мораль, - лучшего и желать нечего.
