4 Read the next part of the text. Who do you think the stranger is? How do you think Watson feels when he finds out?

E Outside the sun was getting low. In the west the sky was brilliant with red and gold, and these colours were shining from pools of water on the moor. I could see the two towers of Baskerville Hall, and far away a curl of smoke came from the village of Grimpen. All was quiet and lovely in the golden evening light. But I could not enjoy this beauty. I was thinking only of my meeting with the stranger. Every minute was bringing it closer. Cold and alone, I sat in the dark corner of the hut and waited for the man to come. 20

F And then finally I heard him. Far away came the clink of a boot hitting a stone. Then another and yet another, slowly coming nearer and nearer. I pushed myself back into the darkest corner and took out the gun from my pocket. I knew I must not show myself until I could see this man. For a few moments there was no sound and I knew he had stopped. Then once more the footsteps came towards me and a shadow fell across the opening of the hut. 25

G 'It's a lovely evening, my dear Watson,' said a well-known voice. 'I really think you will be more comfortable out here than inside.'

4. Прочитайте следующую часть текста. Как вы думаете, кто этот незнакомец? Как, по-вашему, чувствует себя Ватсон, когда он это выясняет?

Ответ:

I think the stranger is Sherlock Holmes. The text says it was a 'well-known voice' and it called him 'my dear Watson'. That's what Holmes calls him.

Я думаю, что незнакомец — это Шерлок Холмс. В тексте говорится, что это был «хорошо знакомый голос», и он назвал его «мой дорогой Ватсон». Холмс так его называет.

I think Watson feels very surprised and relieved. He was scared and had his gun out, but then he sees it's just his best friend, Sherlock.

Я думаю, Ватсон чувствует себя очень удивлённым и испытавшим облегчение. Он был напуган и достал пистолет, но потом увидел, что это всего лишь его лучший друг, Шерлок.
