    CHOICE OF WORDS:
    (1.) Русскому прилагательному быстрый в английском языке соответствует несколько эквивалентов: fast, swift, rapid, quick. Fast, swift и rapid характеризуют темп движения. Прилагательное fast чаще сочетается с существительными, обозначающими движущиеся объекты: a fast train (boat, car) скорый поезд (скоростная лодка, машина); the watch is 10 minutes fast часы спешат на десять минут. В отличие от fast прилагательные rapid и swift характеризуют само движение; rapid - нередко предполагает завершение действия в очень небольшой период времени или неожиданно быстрый темп развития: rapid growth (progress, recovery, thinking) быстрый рост (быстрое продвижение вперед, выздоровление, быстрая сообразительность, быстрый ум). Прилагательное quick, в отличие от fast, swift и rapid, характеризует не столько темп движения или действия, сколько их безотлагательность и кратковременность; нередко оно подразумевают готовность к действию: quick service быстрое/немедленное обслуживание; quick hands проворные руки; to be quick to find it out быстро выяснить это; the medicine had a quick effect лекарство быстро подействовало.
