22 cross questions and crooked answers
1) игра в вопросы и ответы, в которой ответы не соответствуют вопросамThe examination of Mrs. Thipps provided more entertainment than enlightenment, affording as it did an excellent example of the game called "cross questions and crooked answers". (D. L. Sayers, ‘Whose Body?’, ch. VI) — Допрос миссис Типпс скорее позабавил всех, чем послужил выяснению истины. Он очень походил на игру "спрашивай - отвечаем", где ответы и вопросы не имеют друг с другом ничего общего.
To Cornelia Thornwell, watching this scene, listening to these interminable wrangles, this was not a real procedure in a court; this was some kind of crazy dream, a world of cross questions and crooked answers, another Alice in Wonderland. (U. Sinclair, ‘Boston’, ch. XIV) — Корнелии Торнуэлл, наблюдавшей эту сцену и прислушивавшейся к нескончаемым пререканиям, не верилось, что она присутствует на судебном процессе. Это было похоже на какой-то нелепый, бессмысленный сон, на игру "разговор глухих", точно она, подобно Алисе, очутилась вдруг в Стране чудес.
