Метод Франка - Дом на Пуховом углу
"An A," said Rabbit (А, — сказал Кролик), "but not a very good one (но не очень удачная). Well, I must get back and tell the others (ну, мне нужно вернуться и рассказать остальным)."
Eeyore looked at his sticks (Иа посмотрел на свои палочки) and then he looked at Piglet (а затем /он/ посмотрел на Пятачка).

"Three sticks," said Rabbit promptly.
"You see?" said Eeyore to Piglet. He turned to Rabbit. "I will now answer your question," he said solemnly.
"Thank you," said Rabbit.
"What does Christopher Robin do in the mornings? He learns. He becomes Educated. He instigorates — I think that is the word he mentioned, but I may be referring to something else — he instigorates Knowledge. In my small way I also, if I have the word right, am — am doing what he does. That, for instance, is — "
"An A," said Rabbit, "but not a very good one. Well, I must get back and tell the others."
Eeyore looked at his sticks and then he looked at Piglet.
"What did Rabbit say it was (что, Кролик сказал, это)?" he asked (спросил он).
"An A," said Piglet (А, — сказал Пятачок).
"Did you tell him (ты сказал ему)?"
"No, Eeyore, I didn't (нет, Иа, я не говорил). I expect he just knew (я полагаю, он просто знал)."
"He knew (он знал)? You mean this A thing is a thing Rabbit knew (ты хочешь сказать, что эта А — штука, которая была известна Кролику)?"
"Yes, Eeyore (да, Иа). He's clever, Rabbit is (Кролик, он умный)."
"Clever!" said Eeyore scornfully (умный! — презрительно сказал Иа; scorn — презрение; насмешка), putting a foot heavily on his three sticks (тяжело = со всей тяжестью ставя ногу на свои три палочки). "Education (Образование)!" said Eeyore bitterly (горько сказал Иа), jumping on his six sticks (прыгая на свои шесть палочек). "What is Learning (что такое Учение)?" asked Eeyore as he kicked his twelve sticks into the air (спросил Иа, подбрасывая ногой = копытом свои двенадцать палочек в воздух). "A thing Rabbit knows (штука, которую знает Кролик = то, что известно Кролику)! Ha (ха)!"
knew [njH], scornfully ['skLnfulI], heavily ['hevIlI]
"What did Rabbit say it was?" he asked.
"An A," said Piglet.
"Did you tell him?"
"No, Eeyore, I didn't. I expect he just knew."
"He knew? You mean this A thing is a thing Rabbit knew?"
"Yes, Eeyore. He's clever, Rabbit is."
"Clever!" said Eeyore scornfully, putting a foot heavily on his three sticks. "Education!" said Eeyore bitterly, jumping on his six sticks. "What is Learning?" asked Eeyore as he kicked his twelve sticks into the air. "A thing Rabbit knows! Ha!"
"I think — " began Piglet nervously (я думаю, — начал нервно Пятачок).
"Don't," said Eeyore (не думай, — сказал Иа).
"I think Violets are rather nice," said Piglet (я думаю, что Фиалки довольно милые, — сказал Пятачок). And he laid his bunch in front of Eeyore and scampered off (и он положил свой букет перед Иа и резво убежал).
Next morning the notice on Christopher Robin's door said (на следующее утро записка на двери Кристофера Робина гласила):
GONE OUT (УШЁЛ)
BACK SOON (СКОРО ВЕРНУСЬ)
C. R. (К. Р.)
Which is why all the animals in the Forest (вот поэтому все животные в Лесу) — except, of course, the Spotted and Herbaceous Backson (за исключением, разумеется, Пятнистого и Травянистого Скоравирнуса) — now know what Christopher Robin does in the mornings (теперь знают, чем занимается Кристофер Робин по утрам).

Chapter VIIN WHICH POOH INVENTS A NEW GAME AND EEYORE JOINS IN
Глава 6В которой Пух изобретает новую игру, а Иа присоединяется к ней
By the time it came to the edge of the Forest the stream had grown up (к тому времени, как ручей добрался до опушки Леса, он вырос так), so that it was almost a river (что стал почти рекой), and, being grown-up (а будучи взрослым; grown-up — взрослый), it did not run and jump and sparkle along (он не бежал и /не/ скакал и /не/ резвился; to sparkle — играть, искриться /о вине/, быть оживленным) as it used to do (как /он делал это/ раньше) when it was younger (когда он был моложе), but moved more slowly (но двигался более медленно). For it knew now where it was going (потому что он знал теперь, куда он идет/направляется), and it said to itself (и говорил себе), "There is no hurry (нечего спешить). We shall get there some day (когда-нибудь мы все там будем[38])." But all the little streams higher up in the Forest went this way and that, quickly, eagerly (а все маленькие ручейки выше в Лесу сновали туда-сюда, быстро, энергично), having so much to find out before it was too late (им нужно было так много узнать, пока не будет слишком поздно).
edge [eG], slowly ['slqulI], eagerly ['JgqlI]
By the time it came to the edge of the Forest the stream had grown up, so that it was almost a river, and, being grown-up, it did not run and jump and sparkle along as it used to do when it was younger, but moved more slowly. For it knew now where it was going, and it said to itself, "There is no hurry. We shall get there some day." But all the little streams higher up in the Forest went this way and that, quickly, eagerly, having so much to find out before it was too late.
There was a broad track (была одна широкая тропа), almost as broad as a road (почти такая же широкая, как дорога), leading from the Outland to the Forest (ведущая из Внеземелья[39] в Лес), but before it could come to the Forest (но, прежде чем она могла попасть в Лес), it had to cross this river (ей предстояло пересечь эту реку). So, where it crossed, there was a wooden bridge (поэтому там, где она пересекала ее, был деревянный мост), almost as broad as a road (почти такой же широкий, как дорога), with wooden rails on each side of it (с деревянными перилами по обоим сторонам его). Christopher Robin could just get his chin on to the top rail (Кристофер Робин мог бы как раз положить свой подбородок на верхнюю часть перил), if he wanted to (если бы он захотел), but it was more fun to stand on the bottom rail (но /гораздо/ забавнее было стоять на нижней перекладине перил), so that he could lean right over (так чтобы он мог как раз свеситься / наклониться над ней), and watch the river slipping slowly away beneath him (и наблюдать за рекой, медленно ускользающей под ним; to slip away — ускользать, проноситься). Pooh could get his chin on to the bottom rail if he wanted to (Пух мог опереться /своим/ подбородком на нижнюю перекладину, если бы он захотел), but it was more fun to lie down and get his head under it (но /гораздо/ забавнее было лечь и просунуть /свою/ голову под ней), and watch the river slipping slowly away beneath him (и наблюдать за рекой, медленно ускользающей под ним). And this was the only way (и это был единственный способ) in which Piglet and Roo could watch the river at all (с помощью которого Пятачок и Ру вообще могли наблюдать за рекой), because they were too small to reach the bottom rail (потому что они были слишком малы, чтобы дотянуться до нижней перекладины). So they would lie down and watch it (поэтому они ложились и наблюдали за ней) ... and it slipped away very slowly (а она очень медленно скользила прочь), being in no hurry to get there (совершенно не спеша попасть туда / оказаться там).
wooden [wudn], bridge [brIG], each [JC]
There was a broad track, almost as broad as a road, leading from the Outland to the Forest, but before it could come to the Forest, it had to cross this river. So, where it crossed, there was a wooden bridge, almost as broad as a road, with wooden rails on each side of it. Christopher Robin could just get his chin on to the top rail, if he wanted to, but it was more fun to stand on the bottom rail, so that he could lean right over, and watch the river slipping slowly away beneath him. Pooh could get his chin on to the bottom rail if he wanted to, but it was more fun to lie down and get his head under it, and watch the river slipping slowly away beneath him. And this was the only way in which Piglet and Roo could watch the river at all, because they were too small to reach the bottom rail. So they would lie down and watch it ... and it slipped away very slowly, being in no hurry to get there.
One day, when Pooh was walking towards this bridge (однажды, когда Пух шел к мосту), he was trying to make up a piece of poetry about fir-cones (он пытался сочинить стихотворение о еловых шишках), because there they were, lying about on each side of him (потому что там они лежали повсюду, по обе стороны от него), and he felt singy (и он чувствовал себя песенно). So he picked a fir-cone up (поэтому он подобрал еловую шишку), and looked at it (и поглядел на нее), and said to himself (и сказал себе), "This is a very good fir-cone (это очень хорошая шишка), and something ought to rhyme to it (и что-то должно рифмоваться с ней)." But he couldn't think of anything (но он ничего не мог придумать). And then this came into his head suddenly (и тогда ему в голову пришло следующее / вот что):
Here is a myst'ry (вот тайна):
About a little fir-tree (о маленькой елке).
Owl says it's his tree (Филин говорит, это его дерево),
And Kanga says it's her tree[40] (а Кенга говорит, это ее дерево).

Вот тайна о маленькой ели.
Узнать вы ее бы хотели?
Взлетел на нее Филин еле,
А Кенге они надо-ели[41].
One day, when Pooh was walking towards this bridge, he was trying to make up a piece of poetry about fir-cones, because there they were, lying about on each side of him, and he felt singy. So he picked a fir-cone up, and looked at it, and said to himself, "This is a very good fir-cone, and something ought to rhyme to it." But he couldn't think of anything. And then this came into his head suddenly:
Here is a myst'ry:
About a little fir-tree.
Owl says it's his tree,
And Kanga says it's her tree.
"Which doesn't make sense," said Pooh (что = а это бессмысленно), "because Kanga doesn't live in a tree (потому что Кенга не живет в дереве[42])."
He had just come to the bridge (он как раз подошел к мосту); and not looking where he was going (и не глядя, куда он идет), he tripped over something (он обо что-то споткнулся), and the fir-cone jerked out of his paw into the river (и шишка выскочила из его лапы в речку).
"Bother," said Pooh (ах-ты, — сказал Пух), as it floated slowly under the bridge (когда она медленно уплыла под мост), and he went back to get another fir-cone which had a rhyme to it (и он пошел обратно за еще одной шишкой, которая /тоже/ имела рифму). But then he thought that he would just look at the river instead (но потом он подумал, что он просто посмотрит вместо этого на реку), because it was a peaceful sort of day (потому что это был такой спокойный день), so he lay down and looked at it (и он улегся и стал смотреть на нее), and it slipped slowly away beneath him (а она медленно ускользала прочь под ним)... and suddenly, there was his fir-cone slipping away too (и вдруг там была = показалась его еловая шишка, которая тоже ускользала прочь).
