    ✾ Book ✾ Film 'You only live twice' Fleming, Gilbert 'On ne vit que deux fois'
    To live fast, die young and leave a beautiful corpse À l'origine, cette phrase provient du titre d'un film de 1949 mis en scène par Nicholas Ray intitulé Knock on Any Door ("Les Ruelles du malheur"), dont le personnage principal, un marginal joué par John Derek, voulait "vivre vite, mourir jeune et laisser un beau cadavre". Aujourd'hui cette formule est davantage associée aux personnages de rebelles qu'incarnaient James Dean et d'autres jeunes acteurs des années 50 et 60, et à la vie trépidante qu'ils menaient dans la réalité. Cette formule est généralement utilisée dans sa version tronquée ( live fast and die young) pour faire référence à un style de vie débridé. On dira par exemple I don't like these modern pop stars and their live fast, die young attitude ("je n'aime pas les vedettes de la musique pop d'aujourd'hui qui ne pensent qu'à s'amuser sans jamais penser aux conséquences").

    CHOICE OF WORDS:
    Русские прилагательные голый, обнаженный передаются английскими прилагательными bare и naked. Оба прилагательные употребляются с существительными, обозначающими человеческое тело и его части, части помещения и отдельные его элементы, ландшафт и его компоненты. Bare и naked различаются по степени и характеру непокрытости. Bare предполагает любое, как частичное, так и полное, отсутствие покрытия, одежды, растительности. Нередко использование прилагательного bare сопряжено со скудностью, недостатком, нуждой, лишением. В сочетаниях bare feet босые ноги; bare arms оголенные руки; bare shoulders (heads) обнаженные плечи (головы); bare hands голые, ничем не вооруженные руки; bare to the waist обнаженный до пояса, неявно предполагается, что обычно эти части тела прикрыты. Naked, в отличие от bare, как правило, предполагает полное отсутствие одежды, обстановки, убранства, растительности. Употребление naked не связано с подчеркиванием недостатков. Naked предполагает не просто обнаженность но и доступность для рассмотрения предмета или поверхности: a naked body (figure) голое тело (обнаженная фигура); a naked baby голенький ребенок - подчеркивают полное отсутствие покрытия и возможность видеть все тело: a bare room бедно/скудно обставленная комната; bare walls пустые/без убранства стены; bare floors (boards) ничем не покрытый пол (голые доски, голый пол) - эти выражения подчеркивают нужду, недостаток, в то время как сочетание naked room пустая комната, еще или уже не обставленная. Тоже имеет место при переносном употреблении этих слов: bare truth голая/ничем не приукрашенная правда, в то время как naked truth простая/всем ясная/понятная правда; bare style скупой стиль; naked style простой и ясный стиль, что определяет показательную непарность сочетаний: bare facts голые/без каких-либо деталей факты; to earn a bare living зарабатывать столько, что едва хватает на жизнь в отличие от naked dictatorship (exploitation) явное диктаторство (явная/неприкрытая эксплуатация); to see smth with one's naked eye видеть что-либо невооруженным глазом; naked flame открытое пламя
