CHOICE OF WORDS:(1.) Русское существительное "игра" соответствует двум группам существительных в английском языке: game и play, с одной стороны (см. USAGE game), и acting и performance, с другой. Оба существительных второй группы относятся к сценическому искусству, но различаются по значению и сфере употребления. Существительное acting относится только к сценической деятельности и обозначает актерское мастерство, искусство, умение актера исполнять разные роли в театре, на сцене или в кино: his acting in all the plays always moved the audience to tears его игра во всех пьесах всегда трогала зрителей до слез; I always admired his acting я всегда восхищался его игрой/я всегда восхищался его актерским мастерством; the success of the film is due mostly to the brilliant acting of the cast фильм обязан своим успехом главным образом блестящей игре актеров. Существительное performance обозначает конкретный акт исполнения, выступления или действия и относится не только к актерам сцены, но и к музыкантам, танцорам, певцам, спортсменам и т. д.: the policeman died in the performance of his duty полицейский погиб при исполнении своих обязанностей; his performance of Chopin's music музыка Шопена в его исполнении; Ulanova's performance of Juliet исполнение роли Джульетты Улановой; his performance as goalkeeper attracted the jury's attention его игра в качестве вратаря обратила на себя внимание жюри; our football team's performance has been excellent this year наша футбольная команда в этом году выступила прекрасно; it was the best performance of Othello это лучшее исполнение роли Отелло.

Antes, cuando todavía es un proyecto de ley ( bill), puede ser modificado tanto por la Cámara de los Comunes como por la de los Lores. Si ambas cámaras lo aprueban, se envía al monarca para que dé su aprobación ( Royal Assent), aunque esto es una mera formalidad. Tras ello la ley ya es oficialmente un Act of Parliament, y pasa a formar parte de la legislación británica, reemplazando cualquier ley consuetudinaria ( common law) que hubiera sobre ese asunto.See:see cultural note COMMON LAW in common* * *noun = American College Test
