Английский язык с А. А. Милном. Винни-Пух. Часть 2

"I'm looking down," cried Piglet loudly (я смотрю вниз, — крикнул громко Пятачок), so as the Jagular shouldn't do the wrong thing by accident (/с тем/ чтобы Агуяр случайно не совершил неверный поступок / сделал не то; wrong — неверный, неправильный, не тот).

mistake [mIs'teIk], wrong [rON], accident ['xksIdqnt]

Piglet still felt that to be underneath a Very Good Dropper would be a Mistake, and he was just going to hurry back for something which he had forgotten when the Jagular called out to them.

"Help! Help!" it called.

"That's what Jagulars always do," said Pooh, much interested. "They call 'Help! Help!' and then when you look up, they drop on you."

"I'm looking down," cried Piglet loudly, so as the Jagular shouldn't do the wrong thing by accident.

Something very excited next to the Jagular heard him, and squeaked (нечто очень возбужденное рядом с Агуяром услышало его и запищало):

"Pooh and Piglet (Пух и Пятачок)! Pooh and Piglet (Пух и Пятачок)!"

All of a sudden Piglet felt (внезапно Пятачок почувствовал) that it was a much nicer day than he had thought it was (что это гораздо более милый денек, чем он думал). All warm and sunny (исключительно теплый и солнечный) —

"Pooh!" he cried (Пух! — воскликнул он). "I believe it's Tigger and Roo (я думаю, это Тигер и Ру)!"

"So it is," said Pooh (так и есть, — сказал Пух). "I thought it was a Jagular and another Jagular (/а/ я думал, что это Агуяр и еще один Агуяр)."

"Hallo, Roo!" called Piglet (привет, Ру! — позвал Пятачок). "What are you doing (что ты делаешь)?"

squeak [skwJk], thought [TLt], sunny ['sAnI]

Something very excited next to the Jagular heard him, and squeaked:

"Pooh and Piglet! Pooh and Piglet!"

All of a sudden Piglet felt that it was a much nicer day than he had thought it was. All warm and sunny —

"Pooh!" he cried. "I believe it's Tigger and Roo!"

"So it is," said Pooh. "I thought it was a Jagular and another Jagular."

"Hallo, Roo!" called Piglet. "What are you doing?"

"We can't get down, we can't get down!" cried Roo (мы не можем спуститься, мы не можем спуститься! — закричал Ру). "Isn't it fun (разве это не забавно)? Pooh, isn't it fun (Пух, разве это не забавно), Tigger and I are living in a tree, like Owl (Тигер и я = мы с Тигером живем на дереве, как Филин), and we're going to stay here for ever and ever (и мы останемся здесь навсегда-навсегда). I can see Piglet's house (я вижу дом Пятачка). Piglet, I can see your house from here (Пятачок, я вижу отсюда твой дом). Aren't we high (разве мы не высоко)? Is Owl's house as high up as this (дом Филина так же высоко, как этот = мы)?"

"How did you get there, Roo?" asked Piglet (как ты забрался туда Ру? — спросил Пятачок).

"On Tigger's back (у Тигера на спине = верхом на Тигере)! And Tiggers can't climb downwards (а Тигеры не умеют слезать вниз), because their tails get in the way (потому что их хвосты путаются под ногами; to get in the way — мешаться, перекрывать дорогу), only upwards (только /залезать/ вверх), and Tigger forgot about that when we started (а Тигер забыл об этом, когда мы пустились в путь), and he's only just remembered (и он вспомнил только что). So we've got to stay here for ever and ever — unless we go higher (поэтому нам придется остаться здесь навсегда-навсегда — если мы не полезем выше). What did you say, Tigger (что ты сказал, Тигер)? Oh, Tigger says if we go higher (а, Тигер говорит, если мы полезем выше) we shan't be able to see Piglet's house so well (мы не сможем видеть так хорошо дом Пятачка), so we're going to stop here (поэтому мы остановимся здесь)."

high [haI], unless [qn'les], says [sez]

"We can't get down, we can't get down!" cried Roo. "Isn't it fun? Pooh, isn't it fun, Tigger and I are living in a tree, like Owl, and we're going to stay here for ever and ever. I can see Piglet's house. Piglet, I can see your house from here. Aren't we high? Is Owl's house as high up as this?"

"How did you get there, Roo?" asked Piglet.

"On Tigger's back! And Tiggers can't climb downwards, because their tails get in the way, only upwards, and Tigger forgot about that when we started, and he's only just remembered. So we've got to stay here for ever and ever — unless we go higher. What did you say, Tigger? Oh, Tigger says if we go higher we shan't be able to see Piglet's house so well, so we're going to stop here."

"Piglet," said Pooh solemnly (Пятачок, — сказал торжественно Пух), when he had heard all this (когда он услышал все это), "what shall we do (что будем делать)?" And he began to eat Tigger's sandwiches (и он начал есть бутерброды Тигера).

"Are they stuck (они застряли)?" asked Piglet anxiously (спросил встревоженно Пятачок).

Pooh nodded (Пух кивнул).

"Couldn't you climb up to them (ты не мог бы залезть к ним)?"
