Piglet thought that they ought to have a Reason for going to see everybody, like Looking for Small or Organizing an Expotition, if Pooh could think of something.

Pooh could.

"We'll go because it's Thursday (мы пойдем, потому что /сегодня/ Четверг)," he said (сказал он), "and we'll go to wish everybody a Very Happy Thursday (и мы пойдем, чтобы пожелать всем Очень Счастливого Четверга). Come on, Piglet (идем, Пятачок)."

They got up (они встали); and when Piglet had sat down again (и когда Пятачок снова сел), because he didn't know the wind was so strong (потому что он не знал, что ветер такой сильный), and had been helped up by Pooh (а Пух помог ему встать), they started off (они отправились в путь). They went to Pooh's house first (сначала они пошли в дом Пуха), and luckily Pooh was at home (и, к счастью, Пух оказался дома) just as they got there (как раз когда они добрались туда), so he asked them in (поэтому он пригласил их вовнутрь), and they had some (и они немного перекусили), and then they went on to Kanga's house (а потом они пошли дальше в дом Кенги), holding on to each other (держась друг за друга), and shouting (и крича), "Isn't it?" and "What?" and "I can't hear (не так ли? и что? и я не слышу)." By the time they got to Kanga's house (к тому времени, как они добрались до дома Кенги) they were so buffeted (их так потрепало) that they stayed to lunch (что они остались на обед). Just at first it seemed rather cold outside afterwards (как раз сперва потом /им/ показалось довольно холодно снаружи), so they pushed on to Rabbit's as quickly as they could (и они поспешили к Кролику /так/ быстро, как они могли = со всех ног; to push on — спешить).

Thursday ['TWzdI], luckily ['lAkIlI], buffet ['bAfIt]

"We'll go because it's Thursday," he said, "and we'll go to wish everybody a Very Happy Thursday. Come on, Piglet."

They got up; and when Piglet had sat down again, because he didn't know the wind was so strong, and had been helped up by Pooh, they started off. They went to Pooh's house first, and luckily Pooh was at home just as they got there, so he asked them in, and they had some, and then they went on to Kanga's house, holding on to each other, and shouting, "Isn't it?" and "What?" and "I can't hear." By the time they got to Kanga's house they were so buffeted that they stayed to lunch. Just at first it seemed rather cold outside afterwards, so they pushed on to Rabbit's as quickly as they could.

"We've come to wish you a Very Happy Thursday (мы пришли пожелать тебе Очень Счастливого Четверга)," said Pooh, when he had gone in and out once or twice (сказал Пух, когда он вошел и вышел раз или два) just to make sure that he could get out again (просто чтобы убедиться, что он может выйти снова[61]).

"Why, what's going to happen on Thursday (а что же произойдет в четверг)?" asked Rabbit (спросил Кролик), and when Pooh had explained (а когда Пух объяснил), and Rabbit, whose life was made up of Important Things, said (и Кролик, жизнь которого состояла из Важных Дел, сказал), "Oh, I thought you'd really come about something (а я думал, что вы действительно пришли из-за чего-то = по делу)," they sat down for a little (они сели перекусить: «для маленького /чего-то/»)... and by-and-by Pooh and Piglet went on again (и вскоре Пух и Пятачок пошли дальше опять). The wind was behind them now (теперь ветер был сзади них = дул им в спину), so they didn't have to shout (поэтому им не нужно было кричать).

sure [Suq], whose [hHz], shout [Saut]

"We've come to wish you a Very Happy Thursday," said Pooh, when he had gone in and out once or twice just to make sure that he could get out again.

"Why, what's going to happen on Thursday?" asked Rabbit, and when Pooh had explained, and Rabbit, whose life was made up of Important Things, said, "Oh, I thought you'd really come about something," they sat down for a little ... and by-and-by Pooh and Piglet went on again. The wind was behind them now, so they didn't have to shout.

"Rabbit's clever (Кролик умный)," said Pooh thoughtfully (сказал задумчиво Пух).

"Yes," said Piglet (да, — сказал Пятачок), "Rabbit's clever (Кролик умный)."

"And he has Brain (и у него есть Мозги)."

"Yes," said Piglet (да, — сказал Пятачок), "Rabbit has Brain (у Кролика есть Мозги)."

There was a long silence (последовало долгое молчание).

"I suppose," said Pooh (я полагаю, — сказал Пух), "that that's why he never understands anything (что именно поэтому он никогда ничего /не/ понимает)."

clever ['klevq], thoughtfully ['TLtfulI], silence ['saIlqns]

"Rabbit's clever," said Pooh thoughtfully.

"Yes," said Piglet, "Rabbit's clever."

"And he has Brain."

"Yes," said Piglet, "Rabbit has Brain."

There was a long silence.

"I suppose," said Pooh, "that that's why he never understands anything."

Christopher Robin was at home by this time (Кристофер Робин к этому времени был дома), because it was the afternoon (потому что было уже время после полудня / уже было за полдень), and he was so glad to see them (и он был так рад видеть их) that they stayed there until very nearly tea-time (что они оставались там = у него очень почти = почти-почти до времени чаепития), and then they had a Very Nearly tea (а потом они Почти-Почти попили чаю), which is one you forget about afterwards (который такой, что о нем потом /скоро/ забываешь), and hurried on to Pooh Corner (и поспешили дальше к Пуховому Углу), so as to see Eeyore (чтобы навестить Иа) before it was too late to have a Proper Tea with Owl (пока не слишком поздно Основательно Поужинать у Филина).

"Hallo, Eeyore (привет, Иа)," they called out cheerfully (радостно крикнули они).

nearly ['nIqlI], tea [tJ], proper ['prOpq]

Christopher Robin was at home by this time, because it was the afternoon, and he was so glad to see them that they stayed there until very nearly tea-time, and then they had a Very Nearly tea, which is one you forget about afterwards, and hurried on to Pooh Corner, so as to see Eeyore before it was too late to have a Proper Tea with Owl.

"Hallo, Eeyore," they called out cheerfully.

"Ah!" said Eeyore (а! — сказал Иа). "Lost your way (потеряли дорогу = заблудились; to lose — терять; to lose one’s way — потеряться, заблудиться)?"

"We just came to see you (мы просто пришли проведать тебя)," said Piglet (сказал Пятачок). "And to see how your house was (и узнать, как твой дом). Look, Pooh, it's still standing (смотри, Пух, он все еще стоит)!"

"I know," said Eeyore (я знаю, — сказал Иа). "Very odd (очень странно). Somebody ought to have come down and pushed it over (кому-то следовало забрести сюда и свалить его; to come down — приезжать из центра на окраину, приезжать из столицы на периферию; to push over — опрокинуть, свалить)."

"We wondered whether the wind would blow it down (нам было интересно, /не/ сдует ли его ветер)," said Pooh (сказал Пух).

"Ah, that's why nobody's bothered (ах, вот почему никто затруднил себя этим), I suppose (я полагаю). I thought perhaps they'd forgotten (я думал, может, /они/ /о нем/ забыли; to forget — забыть)."

blow [blqu], bother ['bODq], forgotten [fq'gOtn]

"Ah!" said Eeyore. "Lost your way?"

"We just came to see you," said Piglet. "And to see how your house was. Look, Pooh, it's still standing!"

"I know," said Eeyore. "Very odd. Somebody ought to have come down and pushed it over."

"We wondered whether the wind would blow it down," said Pooh.

"Ah, that's why nobody's bothered, I suppose. I thought perhaps they'd forgotten."

"Well, we're very glad to see you, Eeyore (ну, мы очень рады видеть тебя, Иа), and now we're going on to see Owl (а теперь мы идем дальше проведать Филина)."

"That's right (это правильно). You'll like Owl (вам понравится Филин). He flew past a day or two ago and noticed me (он пролетал мимо день или два назад и заметил меня; to fly — летать). He didn't actually say anything (он, собственно, ничего не сказал), mind you, but he knew it was me (заметьте, но он знал, что это я; mind you — заметьте, имейте в виду). Very friendly of him, I thought (очень дружелюбно с его стороны, подумал я). Encouraging (ободряюще; courage — отвага; to encourage — ободрять)."

Pooh and Piglet shuffled about a little and said (Пух и Пятачок немного пошаркали / поерзали и сказали; to shuffle — откладывать в сторону; перемещать; волочить ноги; шаркать; ерзать, вертеться), "Well, good-bye, Eeyore (ну, до свидания, Иа)," as lingeringly as they could (/так/ медлительно, как /только они/ могли; to linger — засиживаться, задерживаться; колебаться, медлить), but they had a long way to go (но им предстоял долгий путь), and wanted to be getting on (и они хотели поспешить; to get on — спешить с чем-то).

flew [flH], past [pRst], lingeringly ['lINgqrINlI]

"Well, we're very glad to see you, Eeyore, and now we're going on to see Owl."

"That's right. You'll like Owl. He flew past a day or two ago and noticed me. He didn't actually say anything, mind you, but he knew it was me. Very friendly of him, I thought. Encouraging."

Pooh and Piglet shuffled about a little and said, "Well, good-bye, Eeyore," as lingeringly as they could, but they had a long way to go, and wanted to be getting on.

"Good-bye," said Eeyore (до свидания, — сказал Иа). "Mind you don't get blown away, little Piglet (берегись, не будь унесенным ветром = чтоб тебя не унесло ветром, маленький Пятачок; to blow away — сдувать, уносить ветром). You'd be missed (о тебе бы скучали). People would say (люди = все говорили бы) 'Where's little Piglet been blown to (куда задуло = занесло ветром маленького Пятачка)?' — really wanting to know (действительно желая знать /это/). Well, good-bye (ну, до свидания). And thank you for happening to pass me (и спасибо за то, что случайно проходили мимо меня)."

"Good-bye (до свидания)," said Pooh and Piglet for the last time (сказали Пух и Пятачок в последний раз), and they pushed on to Owl's house (и они поспешили к дому Филина).

blown [blqun], pass [pRs], last [lRst]

"Good-bye," said Eeyore. "Mind you don't get blown away, little Piglet. You'd be missed. People would say 'Where's little Piglet been blown to?' — really wanting to know. Well, good-bye. And thank you for happening to pass me."

"Good-bye," said Pooh and Piglet for the last time, and they pushed on to Owl's house.

The wind was against them now (теперь ветер был им навстречу), and Piglet's ears streamed behind him like banners (и ушки Пятачка развевались позади него, как флажки) as he fought his way along (в то время, как он с трудом продвигался вперед; to fight one’s way along — прокладывать себе дорогу вперед; пробиваться с трудом вперед), and it seemed hours (и, казалось, /прошли/ часы) before he got them into the shelter of the Hundred Acre Wood (прежде чем он привел их в убежище Сто-Акрового Леса) and they stood up straight again (и они снова стали торчком), to listen, a little nervously, to the roaring of the gale among the treetops (чтобы прислушаться, немного нервно, к реву бури среди вершин деревьев).
