A Missing Street

Mark had worked in the Сity Hall for more than twenty years.

He registered the files with the names of all the streets in Montreal.

Mark lived near the City Hall and rarely walked round the city, but he knew the location of the streets very well.

He knew Montreal better than the policemen or taxi drivers.

His job was pretty dull and monotonous, but Mark preferred the office to his flat in Oven Street anyway.

His neighbours were noisy and unpleasant.

Every time he tried to explain the importance of his work, they looked down on him as a low - level clerk.

They failed to understand that they got their mail only because Oven Street had its postal index in one of the files in the City Hall.

Once Mark’s peaceful life was disturbed.

He opened one of the drawers in his study and found an index card stuck at the back.

He drew it out carefully.

Green Bottle Street it said.

Mark stared at it in wonder.

He could not remember any street with that name.

He searched all the files but could not find anything.

It was not on the list.

Mark examined the card once more.

There was no mistake.

The paper was old and yellow.

The last inspection date marked on the card was more than fifteen years before.

Mark was frozen with horror.

It was a lost, forgotten street!

For so many years it had existed a mile away from the Hall, and nobody knew about it.

Deep in his heart, Mark sometimes had thought of such a possibility.

There were so many winding streets in the city that it looked like a labyrinth.

But with all these files it simply could not happen.

Vaguely he remembered that at the beginning of his career his office had moved to another floor and all the cards were made afresh.

Maybe at that time one of the cards had got stuck in the drawer.

Mark slept badly that night.

In the morning he put the card in his pocket and went looking for Green Bottle Street.

Though he knew its location, he passed it twice.

Finally, he came up to a wooden door, behind which a narrow street started.

He opened the door and stepped inside.

Green Bottle Street lay before him.

It was named after its shape.

On either side of the street there were three well - kept houses with nice, small gardens in front.

At the end of the street there was a brick wall, which separated it from the rest of the world.

Everything there was quiet and safe.

An old woman was watering roses in one of the gardens.

She told Mark that they used to pay taxes and get the mail until they were forgotten.

Then they built a wooden door with a lock to protect their tiny peaceful area from passers - by and officials.

They helped people who got tired of the busy city and wanted to take a break for a while.

Some rooms in the houses were for rent.

Mark understood that the yellow card he had found in the drawer could break people’s peaceful but fragile world.

He sighed and tore the card to pieces.

For all he cared, Green Bottle Street could remain lost forever.

Mark’s responsibility was to invent names for the city’s streets.

Пожалуйста, можно перевод 5 - й главы Питера Пэна.

Peter and the children flew over the city and over fields and trees.

They flew over the sea, and

under the moon many times.

Suddenly, Peter pointed and called to the others.

“Look!

" he cried.

“There it is!

There's the Neverland!

The children knew at once, because it was the same as it was in their dreams.

They felt as if

they were coming home.

Peter turned to the others.

“Do you want an adventure?

” he asked.

“Or do you want tea first?

“Tea first, ” said Wendy quickly.

Michael held her hand tightly, nodding his head.

“What kind of adventure?

” asked John.

“There is a terrible pirate down there, ” said Peter.

“Let’s go down and get him!

“A pirate?

” asked John.

“A real one?

“Yes, " said Peter.

“His name is Hook, and he is the worst of all pirates.

“Is he big?

” asked John.

“Not as big as he was, ” said Peter.

“I cut his hand off, you see!

“So, he can't fight?

” asked John.

“oh, he can fight!

" said Peter.

“He has a sharp hook on the end of his arm.

"

The children looked down at the Neverland and saw that the whole island was full of life.

The

Lost Boys were looking for Peter.

The pirates were looking for the Lost Boys.

The Indians were

looking for the pirates, and the animals were looking for the Indians.

They all walked round and

round the island, but they did not meet because they were all walking at the same speed.

The first to stop moving were the boys.

They were tired, and they sat down on the ground near

their underground home.

Only the Lost Boys knew where the underground house was.

The

entrances were seven trees with holes in their trunks.

There was one hole for each Lost Boy (Nibs,

Tootles, Slightly, Curly and the Twins), and one for Peter Pan.

“Where is Peter?

” asked Nibs.

“I want him to come back and fight the pirates, " said Tootles.

“I am not afraid of the pirates, " said Slightly, but the other boys knew that this was not true.

Everyone was afraid of Hook and his men.

Just then, there was a sound.

“Quick!

The pirates are coming!

” cried Nibs.

The boys disappeared into their underground home like rabbits just before the pirates arrived.

The Open Window Mr?

The Open Window Mr.

Nuttel, a young gentleman, came to live in the country.

The doctors said a quiet place like that and complete rest could help cure his nerves.

He didn’t know anyone round there and was too shy to make new acquaintances.

That’s why his sister gave him letters of introduction to some nice people she knew.

One of the letters was to Mrs.

Sappleton.

When Mr.

Nuttel visited her, Mrs Sappleton was busy and he was asked to wait for several minutes.

The servant invited Mr.

Nuttel into a room.

There Mr.

Nuttel met Mrs.

Sappleton’s niece, a very self - confident young lady of fifteen.

The young gentleman was very shy and he didn’t know how to start the conversation.

The young lady broke the silence and asked him what he knew about her aunt.

Mr. Nuttel knew nothing except Mrs.

Sappleton’s name and address.

Mr. Nuttel looked around.

There was something about the room that told him there were other people living in the house.

So he was wondering if Mrs.

Sappleton was married.

Suddenly the girl got sad and told a story of Mrs.

Sappleton’s tragedy.

Mr. Nuttel was greatly surprised because his sister hadn’t told him anything about it.

The tragedy was very unusual for that peaceful place.

The girl pointed at the French window, which opened on to the lawn and said that Mrs.

Sappleton always kept it open.

Mr. Nuttel stated that it was natural to keep the window open because the weather was quite warm.

But the girl sighed and explained that her poor aunt always kept the window open in the evenings because she was waiting for her husband and sons to return.

Three years ago they had gone hunting and never came back.

The story caught Mr.

Nuttel’s imagination deeply.

He felt very upset.

He felt a little better only when Mrs.

Sappleton finally appeared in the room.

She apologized for being late and asked if he minded the open window.

She said her husband and sons would soon be home from hunting.

They always came in that way.

Then, she continued talking cheerfully about hunting ducks.

But Mr.

Nuttel felt terrible.

He made an attempt to change the topic and told her about the reasons why he had come to the country.

But Mrs.

Sappleton didn’t seem to notice.

She was constantly looking at the open window.

Mr. Nuttel felt uncomfortable.

He understood that he had chosen the wrong moment to visit her.

Suddenly Mrs.

Sappleton cried happily pointing at the window, “Here they are at last, just in time for tea!

” Three male figures were walking across the lawn towards the window.

They carried guns and a dog followed them.

Shocked and afraid, Mr.

Nuttel grabbed his stick and hat and rushed out of the house.

Mrs. Sappleton was extremely surprised at the extraordinary man who had left the house so quickly without a word.

Her niece suggested that it was because of the dog.

She said that Mr.

Nuttel had been afraid of them since childhood – once, a dog had seriously bitten him.

This was enough to make the young man lose his nerve.

The young lady was so good at making up stories!

Mr. Nuttel came to the village to improve his health.

Honesty lessonJosh Ferrin worked as an artist for the Deseret News in Salt Lake City, Utah?

Honesty lesson

Josh Ferrin worked as an artist for the Deseret News in Salt Lake City, Utah.

The newspaper has the longest history in the state and the biggest Sunday circulation.

Fresh and original images are definitely an important part of the newspaper’s policy.

So, Josh had a lot of work and hoped that in several years he could save up for a house of his own.

Josh adored his wife and two children.

They spent holidays together travelling in their old car that broke down regularly.

At weekends in winter, they watched their favourite movies in a rented flat that seemed smaller and smaller as the children were growing.

But neither the tiny flat nor the old car could ruin their happiness and mutual understanding.

Once Josh and his wife were watching a TV program about children who lived in an orphanage and needed parents.

They were so deeply moved by the children’s sad life stories that they decided to adopt a child.

The only thing that could stop them was the small flat.

That was the moment Josh started looking for a new house.

Finding a proper house was not an easy thing to do.

They wanted it to be not very expensive, big enough and have some history.

Finally, Josh brought his wife to look at an outdated two - storey house with a large attic.

Though the house

needed repair, there was something about it that made Josh and his wife like it.

The real estate agent told them the story of the previous owner.

He had six children but lived a lonely life in that house and died several years ago.

His children decided to sell the old house and share the money.

When they moved in, they went on exploring the house.

The massive staircases, cosy bedrooms, a large kitchen and an airy living - room were all they could dream of.

The children were running about the house crying out with joy.

The only door that was closed led to the attic below the roof.

The next day when his wife and children were away, Josh managed to unlock the door and decided to inspect the attic.

The dark space was empty, with spiders’ webs hanging in the corners.

Josh turned on the light and noticed a pile of boxes and tins in one of the corners.

A small, broken bike lay nearby.

Josh thought the room would be ideal for his art studio and started cleaning it up.

He threw away several empty boxes when he suddenly found out that all the rest were stuffed with old books.

Josh drew out several books from one of the boxes and found a thick pile of banknotes at the bottom.

When the family returned, Josh called his wife and told her about the treasure he had found.

He also showed her a short notice he had found in the same box.

The message, ‘to my children’, was written on a piece of yellowish paper.

The sum was enough to buy a new car and repair the house for their own growing family and the child the Ferrins wanted to adopt.

The temptation to keep the money was great, but Josh and his wife understood it was not their money.

The next week Josh found the previous owner’s family and handed them the money and the note.

Josh was happy with his career at the newspaper.

A Model MillionaireHugh Erskine was a charming young man, with brown hair and a clear - cut profile?

A Model Millionaire

Hugh Erskine was a charming young man, with brown hair and a clear - cut profile.

After his father’s death, he inherited only an old cavalry sword and fifteen war books.

To earn his living, Hugh had tried selling tea, then working at the stock exchange, but hadn’t succeeded.

He had to live on the little money he managed to earn.

It was no more than a few hundred pounds.

To make matters worse he fell in love with Laura Merton.

Hugh won Laura’s affection and they were the nicest couple in London.

Laura’s father was very fond of Hugh, however, he said he could only let his daughter marry Hugh when the young man got ten thousand pounds.

It was an enormous sum for Hugh.

One morning, on his way to Laura’s house, Hugh dropped in to see a great friend of his, Alan Trevor.

Alan was a brilliant artist : a real master.

His paintings were wonderful and sold very successfully.

When Hugh came in, he found Trevor finishing a life - size picture of a beggar - man.

The beggar himself was standing on a platform in the corner of the studio.

He was an elderly person, with a miserable expression on his face and poor, torn clothes over his body.

He was an amazing model, absolutely different from Alan’s other models!

Trevor told Hugh that he paid the model a shilling an hour.

Hugh said that the pay was unfair because the painter would get at least a thousand pounds for the picture.

Hugh was sure that the model should be paid more for standing all day long in the studio.

But Alan only smiled back.

When Trevor went out for a moment, Hugh gave the beggar the only sovereign he had in his pocket.

The old man smiled mysteriously and thanked Hugh.

The next day Hugh met Alan Trevor in the club.

Trevor confessed that the beggar was Baron Hausberg, the richest man in London, and Trevor’s great friend.

He bought many of his pictures and that day he had asked to paint him in beggar’s clothes.

Trevor also said that he had told Baron about Hugh’s love and money problems.

“And I gave him a sovereign!

” Hugh cried out, red with shame.

Trevor continued laughing loudly.

He added that Baron Hausberg was in high spirits after Hugh had left and was rubbing his hands together.

Nevertheless, Hugh was so unhappy that he asked Trevor not to tell the story to anyone else and left the club.

The next morning the servant brought Hugh a visiting card.

The visitor, an old man in golden spectacles, was from Baron Hausberg.

As he came into the room, Hugh expressed sincere apologies to the Baron.

Instead the man handed Hugh an envelope.

On the outside it was written, ‘A wedding present to Hugh Erskine and Laura Merton, from an old beggar’.

Hugh opened the envelope.

Inside, there was a cheque for ten thousand pounds.
