5 have the run of smth.

иметь право распоряжаться чем-л.; свободно, беспрепятственно пользоваться чем-л., иметь свободный доступ к чему-л.

It wasn't long before they were calling each other by their first names, and he had the run of the château. (U. Sinclair, ‘Between Two Worlds’, ch. 33) — Они называли уже друг друга по имени, и Ланни бывал в "шато" запросто.

The maids were generally in their bedrooms changing during the afternoon. Mrs. Danvers would have the run of the place. (D. du Maurier, ‘Rebecca’, ch. XIII) — В полдень, когда служанки переодевались в своих комнатах, дом был в полном распоряжении миссис Дэнверс.

Large English-Russian phrasebook > have the run of smth.
6 hold one's nose to the grindstone

(hold (keep или put) one's (или smb.'s) nose to the grindstone)

не давать себе (или кому-л.) ни отдыху ни сроку, заставлять себя (или кого-л.) работать без отдыха, без передышки; см. тж. with one's nose at the grindstone

I can see as far into a grindstone as another man; further than a good many, perhaps, because I had my nose well kept to it when I was young. (Ch. Dickens, ‘Hard Times’, book I, ch. XI) — Я вижу, чем тут пахнет, не хуже всякого другого, даже, может быть, лучше, чем многие, потому что мне самому достаточно доставалось в молодости.

Then, too, keeping your nose to the grindstone prevented other things from plaguing you. (K. S. Prichard, ‘Coonardoo’, ch. XXVIII) —...К тому же если заставляешь себя работать без отдыха, то это не дает всяким вздорным мыслям лезть в голову и терзать тебя.

Mr. Baker... kept all our noses to the grindstone, being - as he once remarked - paid for doing that very thing. (J. Conrad, ‘The Nigger of the Narcissus’, ch. II) — Мистер Бейкер... заставлял нас всех работать до изнеможения, так как ему, как он однажды выразился, именно за это и платили деньги.

Old hypocrite, muttered Tony to himself, don't think you'll succeed in keeping my nose to the grindstone. (R. Aldington, ‘All Men Are Enemies’, part III, ch. III) — - Старый ханжа, - пробормотал про себя Тони, - не воображай, что тебе удастся запрячь меня в ярмо.

Hullo, Bundle. Heard you'd got here. Been kept with my nose to the grindstone all the blessed afternoon or I'd have seen you before. (A. Christie, ‘The Seven Dials Mystery’, ch. XVI) — Приветствую вас, Бандл. Слышал о вашем приезде. Но так заработался сегодня, что не мог раньше с вами встретиться.

7 how the wind blows

(how (whence или where) the wind blows (или lies; тж. which way the wind blows))

откуда ( или куда) ветер дует; как обстоят дела; см. тж. the wind is in that quarter

I've expected it all along. You needn't worry about me. I know all about this. I've seen which way the wind is blowing, and I know how to trim my sails. (Th. Dreiser, ‘The Titan’, ch. XIII) — Я все время ждал чего-нибудь в этом роде. Напрасно вы обо мне беспокоитесь. Все это для меня не ново, я знаю, откуда ветер дует, и знаю, как надо ставить паруса.

He likes to know how to the wind's blowing before he commits himself. (F. Knebel and Ch. Bailey, ‘Seven Days in May’, ‘Tuesday Afternoon’) — Прежде чем принять решение, Барнсуэл обычно старается определить, в какую сторону дует ветер.
