PART IV

 

And what about Vasya? Did Natasha introduce him to her American boyfriend? Yes, she did. When poor Jack woke up in the morning he entered the kitchen and saw Natasha and Vasya there. They were drinking coffee.

"This is my distant relative Jack from America," Natasha said and kissed Jack on the cheek.

"Jack, meet my cousin Vasya from Otradnoe," she continued and kissed Vasya on the nose.

As Jack didn't speak Russian and Vasya didn't know a word in English, the young men smiled, greeted each other cheerfully and shook hands.

She took two cold Jaguars out of the fridge.

-Oh no, not again! - Jack moaned.

Vasya gently patted Natasha on her hip.

"Hm...what interesting relations between a brother and a sister" Jack thought.

[Lady LG 4 159]

Splendid, victorian! Your verse is amazing indeed, I can't help admiring you!

You have a natural talent for writing poetry.

 

Самира, no doubt you're right! "$1 PAY AS YOU ENTER"

 

Dear friends, you can find some interesting tasks on page 41, 17.31, No 1-5 and our story isn't finished yet.

 

See you soon!

"Well well well it will be our wedding and honeymoon quite soon and she will see real Jack and forget about everything!" he thought. Oh poor Jack, how naive he was

The very next day Jack started looking for a job. He tried some grilled-chicken stalls and found himself in Chekhov Street where the owner, a Gipsy-looking stout woman with golden teeth offered him a job. Jack wasn't even asked for his passport or medical certificate. He put on an apron and set to work immediately. When the young man first saw thin pale blue chickens piled in the cardboard box he could hardly overcome sickness. The chickens looked as if they had died their natural death...

Serdar:

 

"Эх, лапти мои, четыре оборки,

Хочу — дома заночую, хочу — у Егорки."

 

Предлагаю попытаться зарифмовать по-английски.

 

"Oh, my boots, two pairs of laces,

You have been to many places!

Tell me, will it be all right

If I spend with George the night?"

 

See you soon!

Excellent !

[Serdar 2]

My version:

 

My beauty shoes

Four sides inside

I want to use

All time tonight

 

I’ve never time

And life is lost

My home is fine

But Jorge's (is) closed

The chickens looked as if they had died their natural death...

Once upon time (in USSR) there was blue bird of happiness.

Everybody wanted to get it.

[Lady LG 4 159]

victorian, Serdar, I'm grateful to you for your kind words. I did my best. You see, it depends on inspiration.

 

Serdar, your translation is quite good too but I'd say "My old bast shoes.."

(bast shoes - лапти, I looked it up in the dictionary)

 

A bluebird of happiness... But why in the USSR? It has always been in the sky but we're often blind and don't notice it or we're too lazy to follow it...

 

Ladies and gentlemen, you can find some interesting tasks if you open p.41, 17.31, № 1-5

 

Have a nice weekend! See you!

[Serdar 2]

4. One more riddle:" What kind of dog has no tail?"

I guess, bobtail.

No, Serdar, don't forget: it's a RIDDLE and most riddles are SILLY!

But two hours later they looked and smelled so delicious as if they had specially been cooked for the dinner party in honour of the royal family. Jack was starving. His mouth watered. He took a piece of chicken and began eating.

- No!!! Spit it out, now! Bad boy, bad boy!

The woman put her big fingers in his mouth and took the chicken out of it as if he were a puppy.

- If you eat this, you will turn into a goat...oh...no, i wanted to say...the chickens are very tasty, but they are only for our dear russians", said the woman.

It was a real riddle for Jack - "Maybe Russians like this kind of food? I`ll ask Natashka about it. By the way, what`s about salary?" "Salary? Are you kidding!?", the woman shouted, "You`ll work for food and must be grateful me!". "Oh no!", Jack exclaimed and run away.

When he arrived home, it was empty there. He found a note on the table - "Dear, I went to the beach with Vasya, please cook dinner and tidy the flat. I kiss you my puppy. Your Nataly." Jack cried and started to cook chicken. At this moment someone knocked at the door. It was Iren, their neighbor. She was wearing supermini and smelled like rose. "Oh Jack, I`d like to treat you with my strawberry cake, I cooked it myself specially for you. Well Jack could you help me? I have a dream to learn English, please would you mind to be my teacher? I`ll be very very good student." "OK", Jack said, "You`ll speak like Merlin Monro in a year. Let`s start right now." "Oh sure!", Iren said, "But it`s quite hot here in the kitchen, let`s go to the bedroom. Oh Jack, you are so handsome and your hands, they are so strong and...". She gently touched his cheek with her manicured fingers and Jack hugged her hard and.......... Natasha came at this moment.
