& 14. Reading.

Read the extracts from English literature and translate with the dictionary.

1. “She had fair hair and delicate features. There was very little make up on her face. The woman was dressed in a small frock of dark green high to the neck.” (A.Christie)

2. “ “ He was a man of medium height with a heavy definite personality; clean shaven, with the mobile mouth of an actor, and the slightly prominent eyes that so often go with the gift of oratory. He was good-looking in a quiet well-bred way. Though looking pale and somehow distressed, his manner was perfectly formal and composed.” (A.Christie)

3. Lord Henry looked at him. Yes, he was certainly wonderfully handsome, with his finely-curved scarlet lips, his frank blue eyes, his crisp golden hair. There was something in his face that made one trust him at once. All the candour of youth was there, as well as all passionate purity. One felt that he had kept himself unspotted from the world.” (O. Wild)

4. “He was a slender little creature, more like an Italian in a 16-centure portrait than a middle class English lad of the 30s. From the long eyebrows and sensitive mouth to the small hands and feet, everything about him was chiselled, overdelicate. Sitting still, he might have been taken for a very pretty girl masquerading in male attire; but when he moved, lithe agility suggested a tame panther without the claws.” (E.L.Voynich)

5. “His appearance … is too remarkable, but no one can pass him without observing him. A shock of orange hair, a pale face disfigured by a horrible scar, which, by its contraction, has turned up the outer edge of his upper lip, a bulldog chin, a pair of very penetrating dark eyes, which present a singular contrast to the colour of his hair…” (A.Conan Doyle)

6. “There was in Dr. Audline’s appearance nothing to attract attention. He was tall and spare, with narrow shoulders and something of a stoop; his hair was gray and thin; his long sallow face deeply lined. He was not more than 50, but he looked older. His eyes, pale blue and rather large, were weary. When you had been with him for a while you noticed that they moved very little; they remained fixed on your face, but so empty of expression were they that it was not discomfort. They seldom lit up. They gave no clue to his thoughts, nor changed with the words he spoke… his hands were of the large size, with long tapering fingers, they were soft, but firm, cool but not clammy. You could never have said what Dr. Audline wore unless you have made a point of looking. His clothes were dark, his tie was black. His dress made his sallow lined face paler and his pale eyes more wan. He gave you the impression of a very sick man.” (S.Maugham)

7. “ Mr. Forestier was a very nice woman … Mr. Forestier was neither charming, beautiful nor intelligent; on the contrary she was absurd, homely and foolish; yet the more you knew her, the more you liked her… She was as tall as average man; she had a large mouth and a great hooked nose, pale-blue short-sight eyes and big ugly hands. Her skin was lined and weather-beaten, but she made up heavily, and her hair, which she wore long, was died golden … She did everything she could to counteract the aggressive masculinity of her appearance, and she succeeded only in looking like a vaudeville artist doing a female impression. Her voice was a woman’s voice, but you were always expecting her … to break into a deep bass, and rearing off that golden wig, discover a man’s bold pate … Her movements were awkward and her gestures clumsy.” (S.Maugham)
