6 hold one's nose to the grindstone

(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.

(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 quarterI'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.

[casilla de ajedrez, damas] squareCASA ROSADACasa Rosada (the “pink house”) in Buenos Aires, is the name of the Argentinian Presidential Palace. Its pink colour was originally chosen (for an earlier building) by president Domingo Sarmiento (1868-74) to represent a combination between the two feuding political traditions of nineteenth century Argentina – red for the Federalists and white for the Unitarians. Argentina's presidents have addressed the people from the balcony of the palace, but the most famous orator to use it was Evita Peron, so there was a huge controversy when film director Alan Parker obtained permission to use the balcony when filming his musical “Evita” in 1997, with Madonna in the title role.* * *f1 house;como una casa fam huge fam ;comenzar la casa por el tejado fig put the cart before the horse;echar otirar la casa por la ventana spare no expense;se me cayó la casa encima fig the bottom fell out of my world2 DEP:jugar en casa play at home;jugar fuera de casa play away, play on the road3 ( hogar) home;en casa at home;estás en tu casa make yourself at home;llevar la casa run the home;ser muy de su casa be a real home-lover;todo queda en casa everything stays in the family* * *casa nf1) : house, building2) hogar: home3) : household, family4) : company, firm5)echar la casa por la ventana : to spare no expense* * *casa n1.
