Английские соответствия различают многократность и однократность действия и поэтому они эквивалентны не только глаголу бить, но и глаголам ударять/ударить и стучать/стукнуть. Кроме этого английские глаголы указывают и на то, как и чем наносятся удары.1. to beat — бить, биться, колотить, ударять, избить (подчеркивается многократность действия; разный характер ударов в русском языке может передаваться разными приставками, как, например, побить, избить и распространенными словосочетаниями; в английском языке в таких случаях используются послелоги или другие глаголы): to beat a carpet — выколачивать ковер; to beat a rug — вытряхивать половик; to beat the dust out of the rug — выбивать пыль из ковра; to beat a drum — бить в барабан; to beat time — отбивать такт; to beat eggs — взбивать яйца; to beat meat — отбивать мясо; to beat smb (up) — бить кого-либо/избивать кого-либо; to beat smb cruelly (to death) — жестоко (до смерти) избить кого-либо; to beat smb with a stick — избивать кого-либо палкой/бить кого-либо папкой; to beat smb for stealing (for lying) — побить кого-либо за воровство (за вранье); one's heart beats — сердце бьется.

The rain beats against the roof. — Дождь бьет по крыше./Дождь стучит по крыше.2. to strike — ударять, ударить, стукнуть, нанести удар (упот- ребляется в официа.1ьной речи, описывает удар по какой-либо части тела): The evidence showed that the victim had been struck over the head with an iron bar. — Свидетельские показания указывают на то, что пострадавшему/жертве был нанесен удар по голове железным прутом.

The lightning struck the tree. — Молния ударила в дерево./Молния попала в дерево.3. to hit — ударить, ударять, стукнуть (употребляется в обыденных ситуациях, чаще, чем to strike и обычно подразумевает одушевленное существительное в качестве подлежащего): to hit smb with smth — ударить кого-либо чем-либо (тем, что держат в руке) Peter keeps hitting me. — Петр постоянно меня бьет./Петр все время дает мне подзатыльники.

The human indexer works mechanically and rapidly; he should require no insight into the document content.Ex. A focus conveys the key or principal notion of a concept.Ex. It is easy to see that users and separate pieces of literature may hold different perspectives on one subject.Ex. Parts of the abstract are written in the informative style, whilst those points which are of less significance are treated indicatively.Ex. Amongst these are numbered: some specific legal and governmental works, such as laws, decrees, treaties; works that record the collective thought of a body, for example, reports of commissions and committees; and various cartographic materials.Ex. Different conceptions of what subject indexing means are described.Ex. A model of how librarians may actually go about book selection is presented in three ways: rationality; tacit knowledge; and symbolic content.Ex. Her experience with many children has shown that often they can repeat sentences and read quite well without any inkling of what they are saying.Ex.

Ex: The human indexer works mechanically and rapidly; he should require no insight into the document content.Ex: A focus conveys the key or principal notion of a concept.Ex: It is easy to see that users and separate pieces of literature may hold different perspectives on one subject.Ex: Parts of the abstract are written in the informative style, whilst those points which are of less significance are treated indicatively.Ex: Amongst these are numbered: some specific legal and governmental works, such as laws, decrees, treaties; works that record the collective thought of a body, for example, reports of commissions and committees; and various cartographic materials.Ex: Different conceptions of what subject indexing means are described.Ex: A model of how librarians may actually go about book selection is presented in three ways: rationality; tacit knowledge; and symbolic content.Ex: Her experience with many children has shown that often they can repeat sentences and read quite well without any inkling of what they are saying.Ex: Nevertheless, citation indexes do seek to link documents according to their content (or at least the perception of their content held by the
