5 Listen, (35), and read the text. Think of how this story could develop. Or, maybe, you know the true ending of this comedy by Shakespeare?

William Shakespeare wrote his famous comedy “The Twelfth Night, or What You Will” in 1600. Two centuries later Charles and Mary Lamb told the play in the form of a story for children. You are going to read the beginning of this story.

Sebastian and his sister Viola were twins, and from their birth they were so much alike, that only the difference in their dress allowed people to know who was who. They were both born in one hour, and in one hour they were both in danger of dying when the ship on which they were making a sea voyage struck on a rock near the coast of Illyria. There was a terrible storm, and a very small number of the ship’s crew survived. The captain ['kæptin] of the ship, with a few of his sailors got to the land in a small boat, and with them they brought Viola safe on shore, where she, poor lady, began to cry because she thought that she had lost her brother. The captain, however¹, explained to her that he had seen her brother when Sebastian was holding on to a strong mast and so he hoped that the young man had survived.

After the captain’s words Viola felt a little better as he had given her some hope, and now considered what she could do in a foreign country, so far from home; and she asked the captain if he knew anything of Illyria. “Ay, very well, madam,” replied the captain, “as I was born not far from this place.” – “Who governs² here?” wondered Viola. The captain told her that it was Duke³ Orsino, a man of noble nature. Viola said she had heard about Orsino from her father, and that he was unmarried then. “And he is so now,” said the captain. He added that many people thought Orsino was in love with fair Olivia. But Olivia, whose father and brother had died not long before, didn’t want to hear about Orsino’s love.

Viola asked the captain to introduce her to Lady Olivia saying she could be helpful to her. But he replied it was impossible because Olivia refused to receive anybody in her house after her brother’s death. Then Viola made another plan. She decided to become Duke Orsino’s page. It was an unusual idea for a young lady to put on men’s clothes and try to look like a boy. But Viola, who was young and of uncommon beauty, alone and in a foreign land, thought that men’s clothes could protect her.

Решение 2.

Подумайте, как может развиваться эта история. Или, может быть, вы знаете истинную концовку этой комедии Шекспира?

Ответ:

I know the ending of this play! Viola will disguise herself as a young man named Cesario and start working for Duke Orsino. She will fall in love with the Duke, but he is in love with Lady Olivia. He sends Cesario (Viola) to deliver his love messages to Olivia, but Olivia falls in love with Cesario instead! Meanwhile, Viola's brother, Sebastian, is actually alive and also in Illyria. There is a lot of funny confusion because they look identical. In the end, Olivia marries Sebastian, thinking he is Cesario. Then everyone sees the twins together, the truth is revealed, and Duke Orsino realizes he loves Viola, and they get married too. So everyone is happy.

Я знаю концовку этой пьесы! Виола переоденется в юношу по имени Цезарио и начнет работать на герцога Орсино. Она влюбится в герцога, но он влюблен в леди Оливию. Он посылает Цезарио (Виолу) передавать его любовные послания Оливии, но Оливия вместо этого влюбляется в Цезарио! Тем временем брат Виолы, Себастьян, на самом деле жив и тоже находится в Иллирии. Происходит много забавной путаницы, потому что они выглядят одинаково. В конце концов, Оливия выходит замуж за Себастьяна, думая, что он Цезарио. Затем все видят близнецов вместе, правда раскрывается, и герцог Орсино понимает, что любит Виолу, и они тоже женятся. Так что все счастливы.
