6 keep out of the picture
держаться подальше (от чего-л.); ≈ держаться в тениBelieve me, Mr. Selby, you'll never know the temptation I had to fight - the temptation to simply drop this purse somewhere in the park where it could be found and try and keep myself entirely out of the picture. (E. S. Gardner, ‘The D. A. Breaks an Egg’, ch. 7) — Я боролась с искушением бросить этот кошелек где-нибудь в парке - пусть его кто-нибудь подберет, - а самой держаться подальше от всей этой истории. Поверьте мне, мистер Селби, вряд ли вы когда-нибудь испытаете нечто подобное.
He said to tell me that circumstances which he couldn't explain at the present time necessitated that he keep out of the picture for a while... (E. S. Gardner, ‘The Case of the Amorous Aunt’, ch. 13) — Джордж Латти просил передать мне, что обстоятельства, о которых он сейчас не мог рассказать, заставили его некоторое время держаться в тени.

8 fight
I n борьба, бой, драка (1). Существительное fight употребляется в предложных конструкциях a fight with smb, a fight between smb, a fight against smb; глагол to fight используется в предложных и беспредложных конструкциях типа to fight smb/against smb/with smb. (2). Русским борьба, бороться, драка, драться в английском языке соответствуют a fight, to fight, a struggle, to struggle, a battle, которые обозначают действия: а) направленные на одушевленные и неодушевленные объекты; б) связанные с применением силы, энергии, усилий. Действия, обозначаемые этими словами, различаются формой проявления усилий: объект обозначаемого действия может быть человеком или животным, а само действие направлено на физическое подавление противника и нанесение ему физического ущерба; существительное и глагол to fight соответствует русским драться, бороться, драка и предполагают использование физической силы, ловкости, различных орудий борьбы (камней, палок, оружия):I don't remember how many fights I was (got) in — Не помню, в скольких я перебывал драках.
The argument ended in a fight — Спор окончился дракой.
The dogs were fighting over a bone — Собаки дрались из-за кости.
То fight в этом значении обычно предполагает небольшое число участников. В отличие от fight, существительное battle предполагает столкновение двух больших групп людей с применением оружия:a battle between the police and the students — столкновение между полицией и студентами.
Английские a struggle, to struggle, в отличие от a fight и a battle, не предполагают обоюдных активных действий. Подчеркивается решимость использовать все интеллектуальные и физические ресурсы, чтобы добиться результата, цели: The boy struggled to free himself from the policeman who was holding him — Мальчик сопротивлялся, пытаясь вырваться из рук державшего его полицейского.She obviously struggled against her attacker — Она, несомненно, боролась с нападавшим на нее человеком.
She struggled for the right words to express her feeling — Она старалась найти нужные слова, чтобы выразить свои чувства.
He struggled to reach the shore — Он прилагал все свои силы и волю, пытаясь достичь берега.
He took any job in his struggle to keep his family on his low income — Он брался за любую работу, стараясь содержать семью на свой маленький заработок.
В тех случаях, когда действие направлено на неодушевленный объект, соответствующие слова предполагают активную деятельность по защите убеждений, социальных и экономических явлений. Выражение (to) fight for/against smth (to fight smth) подразумевает активную деятельность с использованием различных средств борьбы:to fight for freedom (for human rights, for freedom of speech, for better working conditions) — бороться за свободу (за права человека, за свободу слова, за лучшие условия труда);
(to) fight against racism (against crime, against unemployment) — бороться (борьба) с расизмом (с преступностью, с безработицей).
Использование слова (to) struggle подчеркивает длительность этой деятельности, трудность достижения успеха, необходимость собрать все силы и волю, чтобы добиться цели:Life for small farmers is a constant struggle against poverty — Жизнь для мелких фермеров — это постоянная борьба с бедностью (с нищетой).
He led his people in their long struggle for independence — Он руководил своим народом в его долгой борьбе за независимость.
Battle, как и struggle, подчеркивает длительность и трудность борьбы, которая чаще направлена на достижение целей в социальной, экономической и политической сферах:the battle against inflation — борьба с инфляцией;
the battle against drug business — борьба с наркобизнесом;
to win the battle against malaria — выиграть борьбу с малярией.
Русскому сочетанию борьба (бороться) за мир в английском соответствуют to stand for peace, to work for peace, to safeguard peace. II v бороться, сражаться, воевать, драться: to fight smth — бороться с чем-либо; to fight hard — упорно сражаться; to fight (with) smb over smth — драться с кем-либо из-за чего-либо; to fight against smb — сражаться с кем-либо, оказывать сопротивление кому-либо, to fight for smth — бороться за что-либо See fight, n. -
