1 keep up appearances
соблюдать приличия, делать вид, что ничего не произошло, не случилосьAt home, where you were so little known, it was still possible to keep up appearances; that would be quite vain in this province... (R. L. Stevenson, ‘The Master of Ballantrae’, ch. X) — Дома, где вас так мало знали, еще возможно было делать вид, что всё хорошо; здесь это будет совершенно бесполезно...
Is it wonderful that the boy, though always trying to keep up appearances as though he were cheerful and contented... wore often an anxious, jaded look when he thought none were looking, which told of an almost incessant conflict within? (S. Butler, ‘The Way of All Flesh’, ch. XLIV) — И не удивительно, что этот мальчик, хотя он всегда старается быть веселым и всем довольным, в те минуты, когда ему кажется, что никто на него не смотрит, выглядит таким озабоченным и измученным; все это говорит о его тяжелых душевных переживаниях.
