charcoal ['CRkqul], sturdy ['stWdI], relic ['relIk]

They walked up the road together to the old man's shack and went in through its open door. The old man leaned the mast with its wrapped sail against the wall and the boy put the box and the other gear beside it. The mast was nearly as long as the one room of the shack. The shack was made of the tough bud shields of the royal palm which are called guano and in it there was a bed, a table, one chair, and a place on the dirt floor to cook with charcoal. On the brown walls of the flattened, overlapping leaves of the sturdy fibered guano there was a picture in color of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and another of the Virgin of Cobre. These were relics of his wife. Once there had been a tinted photograph of his wife on the wall but he had taken it down because it made him too lonely to see it and it was on the shelf in the corner under his clean shirt.

"What do you have to eat (что у тебя есть поесть)?" the boy asked.

"A pot of yellow rice with fish (чашка желтого риса с рыбой). Do you want some (хочешь немного)?"

"No. I will eat at home (я поем дома). Do you want me to make the fire (хочешь, я разведу огонь)?"

"No. I will make it later on (я разведу его позже). Or I may eat the rice cold (или же я могу съесть рис холодным)."

"May I take the cast net (можно взять сеть)?"

"Of course (конечно)."

There was no cast net and the boy remembered when they had sold it (никакой сети не было, и мальчик помнил, когда они ее продали). But they went through this fiction every day (но они проходили через эту выдумку каждый день). There was no pot of yellow rice and fish and the boy knew this too (не было чашки с желтым рисом и рыбой, и мальчик об этом тоже знал).

through [Tru:], fiction [fIkSn], yellow ['jelqu]

"Eighty-five is a lucky number (восемьдесят пять — счастливое число)," the old man said. "How would you like to see me bring one in that dressed out over a thousand pounds (как тебе понравится увидеть меня с выпотрошенной рыбой весом более тысячи фунтов)?"

"I'll get the cast net and go for sardines (я возьму сеть и пойду за сардинами). Will you sit in the sun in the doorway (ты посидишь на солнце на пороге)?"

"Yes. I have yesterday's paper (у меня есть вчерашняя газета) and I will read the baseball (и я почитаю о бейсболе)."

The boy did not know whether yesterday's paper was a fiction too (мальчик не знал, была ли вчерашняя газета тоже выдумкой). But the old man brought it out from under the bed (но старик достал ее из-под кровати).

"Perico gave it to me at the bodega (Перико дал мне ее в винной лавке; bodega — исп. винный погребок)," he explained (объяснил он).

"Perico gave it to me at the bodega," he explained.

"I'll be back when I have the sardines (я вернусь, когда наловлю сардин). I'll keep yours and mine together on ice (я положу твои и мои вместе на лед: «я буду хранить…») and we can share them in the morning (и мы сможем поделиться ими утром = съесть их вместе; to share — делиться; использовать совместно). When I come back you can tell me about the baseball (когда я вернусь, ты расскажешь мне о бейсболе)."

"The Yankees cannot lose («Янки» не могут проиграть)."

"But I fear the Indians of Cleveland (но я боюсь «Индейцев» из Кливленда)."

"Have faith in the Yankees my son (верь в «Янки», сынок). Think of the great DiMaggio (думай о великом Ди Маджо)."

"I fear both the Tigers of Detroit and the Indians of Cleveland (я боюсь двух /команд/: «Тигров» из Детройта и «Индейцев» из Кливленда)."

"Be careful or you will fear even the Reds of Cincinnati and the White Sax of Chicago (будь осторожен, иначе будешь бояться даже «Краснокожих» из Цинциннати и «Белых Чулок» из Чикаго).”

"You study it and tell me when I come back (ты изучи это и расскажешь мне, когда я вернусь)."

share [SFq], Cleveland ['klJvlqnd], Cincinnati [sInsI'nxtI]

"Do you think we should buy a terminal of the lottery with an eighty-five (думаешь, нам следует купить лотерейный билет с цифрой 85)? Tomorrow is the eighty-fifth day (завтра восемьдесят пятый день)."

"We can do that (мы можем это сделать = почему бы и нет)," the boy said. "But what about the eighty-seven of your great record (а что насчет восьмидесяти семи — твой прошлый великий рекорд)?"

"It could not happen twice (это не может произойти дважды). Do you think you can find an eighty-five (думаешь, сможешь найти с цифрой 85)?"

"I can order one (я могу заказать один = закажу).”

"One sheet (один билет: «листок»). That's two dollars and a half (это два с половиной доллара). Who can we borrow that from (у кого мы можем их занять)?"

"That's easy (это просто). I can always borrow two dollars and a half (я всегда могу занять два с половиной доллара)."

"I think perhaps I can too (думаю, возможно, я тоже). But I try not to borrow (но я стараюсь не занимать). First you borrow (сначала ты занимаешь). Then you beg (затем — умоляешь = просишь милостыню)."

"Keep warm old man (сохраняй тепло = не простудись, старик)," the boy said. "Remember we are in September (помни, мы в сентябре = на дворе сентябрь)."

"The month when the great fish come (месяц, когда приходит крупная рыба)," the old man said. "Anyone can be a fisherman in May (любой может быть рыбаком в мае)."

"I go now for the sardines (я пошел за сардинами)," the boy said.

When the boy came back the old man was asleep in the chair (когда мальчик вернулся, старик спал на стуле) and the sun was down (а солнце зашло). The boy took the old army blanket off the bed (мальчик снял старое солдатское одеяло с кровати) and spread it over the back of the chair and over the old man's shoulders (и укрыл им спинку стула и плечи старика; to spread — расстилать; покрывать). They were strange shoulders (это были странные плечи), still powerful although very old (все еще крепкие/могучие, хотя очень старые), and the neck was still strong too (и шея была тоже все еще сильная) and the creases did not show so much when the old man was asleep and his head fallen forward (и морщины не были сильно видны, когда старик спал, уронив голову на грудь: «его голова упала вперед»; to fall). His shirt had been patched so many times that it was like the sail (его рубашка была залатана так много раз, что походила на парус) and the patches were faded to many different shades by the sun (и заплаты выцвели до разных оттенков под солнцем; to fade — выгорать, выцветать, блекнуть). The old man's head was very old though (однако, лицо: «голова» старика было очень старым) and with his eyes closed there was no life in his face (и с закрытыми глазами/когда его глаза были закрыты, не было жизни в его лице = оно казалось неживым). The newspaper lay across his knees (газета лежала на его коленях; across — поперек) and the weight of his arm held it there in the evening breeze (и вес его руки удерживал ее на вечернем ветерке). He was barefooted (он был босиком = ноги были босы).

The boy left him there and when he came back the old man was still asleep (мальчик оставил его там, и когда он вернулся, старик все еще спал).

"Wake up old man (просыпайся, старик)," the boy said and put his hand on one of the old man's knees (сказал мальчик и положил свою руку на одно из колен старика).

The old man opened his eyes (старик открыл глаза) and for a moment he was coming back from a long way away (и несколько мгновений он возвращался откуда-то издалека). Then he smiled (затем он улыбнулся).

"What have you got (что у тебя есть = что ты принес)?" he asked.

"Supper (ужин)," said the boy. "We're going to have supper (мы будем ужинать)."

"I'm not very hungry (я не очень голоден)."

"Come on and eat (давай есть). You can't fish and not eat (ты не можешь рыбачить и не есть)."

"I have (такое бывало)," the old man said getting up and taking the newspaper and folding it (сказал старик, вставая, беря газету и складывая ее). Then he started to fold the blanket (затем он начал складывать одеяло).

"Keep the blanket around you (оставь одеяло вокруг себя = не снимай одеяло)," the boy said. "You'll not fish without eating while I'm alive (ты не будешь рыбачишь не евши, пока я жив)."

"Then live a long time and take care of yourself (тогда живи долго и заботься о себе = береги себя)," the old man said. "What are we eating (что мы будем есть)?"

"Black beans and rice (черную фасоль и рис), fried bananas (жареные бананы), and some stew (и немного тушенного мяса; stew — блюдо из тушёного мяса или рыбы / обыкн. с овощами, рисом и т. п./).

supper ['sApq], stew [stju:], bean [bJn]
