On its banks, in Stradford-on-Avon, the greatest English poet William Shakespeare (1564 -1616) was born and spent his youth. [65] Nowadays there is little industry in London as heavy engineering plants have been moved to the nearest manufacturing towns. [66] hedge: a row of bushes or low trees which are forming a kind of barrier. [67] Trinidad; an island in the Atlantic, to the north-east of South America [68] Tahiti: an island in the Pacific [69]Max Beerbohm (1872-1956): an English essayist, critic and caricaturist [70] Euston: a railway-station in London [71] boat-train: the train that takes passengers to a ship [72] coach: along-distance bus [73] music-hall: a hall or theatre used for variety entertainment: songs, dancing, acrobatic performances, juggling. (Note: " music-hall" must not be confused with " concert-hall".) [74] the doors for the second house were just opening: the second performance was about to begin. In music-halls and in circuses two or more performances with the same programme are given every day. The same term is used with reference to cinemas: the first (second, third) house первый (второй, третий) сеанс. [75] picture theatre(colloq.): a cinema [76] turns: (here) actors taking part in the programme. Turn — a short performance on the stage of a music-hall or a variety theatre (номер программы). The programme of a variety perfomance usually consists of various turns. [77] little people: (here) fairies, elves, and gnomes of folklore [78] i. e. buildings meant for the performance of plays by professional companies. [79] In England (including London) only a few theatres have their own permanent company (they are called repertory theatres). Theatrical companies are usually formed for a season, sometimes staging only one play for either a long or a short run, their managements having previously rented a theatre for them to perform in (the so-called non-repertory theatres). [80] The part of the theatre which has a stage and seats for the audience is called auditorium or house (also: theatre-house). The long rows of chairs situated on the ground floor of the auditorium in. front of the stage are called the stalls (front rows) and the pit (back rows). The stalls and the pit are surrounded by boxes. There are also some balconies encircling the auditorium on three sides. The lowest of them (coming immediately above the boxes) is called the dress-circle and the highest (somewhere near the ceiling of the house) is known as the gallery. In most theatres the seats for the audience are separated from the stage by the orchestra-pit. In some theatres, however, there is no orchestra-pit, and the musicians are placed behind the scenes (back-stage). The sides of the stage and the scenery placed there are called wings. [81] It takes quite a number of people to put on a play. The treatment of a play, the style of the production, the training of the performers depend on the director (also called by some people producer in Great Britain). The stage-manager is the person in charge of the technical part of the production of a play. There are also make-up artists, people who make the costumes, those who design the props and scenery, and finally, stage hands. The actors taking part in the play are called the cast (cf. the Russian «состав исполнителей»). [82] The tests of the stories and dialogues recorded on the tape see on p. 426. [83] The High Rise and the High Head + the High Rise belong to the same pattern since they have no difference in attitudes. [84] Before studying modal verbs the students must learn all the forms of the infinitive. [85] Subordinate clauses with that.„ should can be used as an alternative to the more usual infinitive constructions: They decided that the strike should continue, instead of They decided to continue the strike.
