Performance of her career. With the cast he was at once conciliatory andExacting. When tempers were frayed his good humour, his real kindliness, Smoothed things over. After that there was no question but that he should Continue to direct their plays.
Authors liked him (авторы любили его) because, being unimaginative (так как, из-за того, что он был лишен воображения), he was forced to let the plays speak for themselves (он был вынужден разрешить пьесам говорить самим за себя) and often not being quite sure what they meant (и часто, будучи не совсем уверенным в том, что они /авторы/ имели в виду) he was obliged to listen to them (он был вынужден слушать их). Julia was now a rich woman (Джулия была теперь богатой женщиной). She could not but admit (она не могла не признать) that Michael was as careful of her money as of his own (что Майкл был также заботлив в отношении ее денег, как и своих собственных). He watched her investments (он следил за ее вложениями) and was as pleased when he could sell stocks at a profit on her account (и был так же рад, когда ему удавалось: «он мог» продать акции с прибылью для нее; on smb.'s account — ради кого-либо; account — счет) as if he had made the money for himself (так, как будто он сделал деньги для себя самого). He put her down for a very large salary (он назначил ей очень высокую зарплату), and was proud to be able to say (и гордился тем, что он мог сказать) that she was the most highly paid actress in London (что она была самой высоко оплачиваемой актрисой в Лондоне), but when he himself acted (но когда он играл сам) he never put himself down for a higher salary (он никогда не записывал себе большую зарплату) than he thought the part was worth (чем он думал, стоит та или иная роль).
unimaginative ["AnI'mxdZInqtIv] obliged [q'blaIdZd] investment [In'vestmqnt]
Authors liked him because, being unimaginative, he was forced to let the plays Speak for themselves and often not being quite sure what they meant he was Obliged to listen to them. Julia was now a rich woman. She could not but admit that Michael was as Careful of her money as of his own. He watched her investments and was as Pleased when he could sell stocks at a profit on her account as if he had made The money for himself. He put her down for a very large salary, and was Proud to be able to say that she was the most highly paid actress in London, But when he himself acted he never put himself down for a higher salary than He thought the part was worth.
When he directed a play (когда он режиссировал постановку) he put down on the expense account (он относил на расход; to put it on the expense account — отнести расход за счет фирмы) the fee that a director of the second rank would have received (гонорар, который получил бы второсортный режиссер). They shared the expenses of the house (они совместно оплачивали затраты на дом; to share the expenses — делить расходы, принять участие в расходах) and the cost of Roger's education (и стоимость обучения: «образования» Роджера). Roger had been entered for Eton (Роджер был записан в Итон; to enter — входить, вступать, записывать куда-либо) within a week of his birth (в течение недели с момента его рождения). It was impossible to deny (невозможно было отрицать /тот факт/) that Michael was scrupulously fair and honest (что Майкл бы безупречно справедливым и честным). When Julia realized how much richer she was than he (когда Джулия поняла, насколько богаче она была, чем он) she wanted to pay all these expenses herself (она захотела оплачивать все расходы сама). "There's no reason why you should (нет никакой причины, чтобы ты /поступала
так/)," said Michael. "As long as I can pay my whack (пока я могу оплачивать свою долю) I'll pay it (я буду оплачивать ее). You earn more than I do (ты зарабатываешь больше, чем я) because you're worth more (потому, что ты стоишь большего). I put you down for a good salary (я плачу тебе: «положил тебе» хорошую зарплату) because you draw it (потому, что ты ее зарабатываешь; to draw — тащить, волочить, зд. получать зарплату, проценты)."

When he directed a play he put down on the expense account the fee that a Director of the second rank would have received. They shared the expenses of The house and the cost of Roger's education. Roger had been entered for Eton Within a week of his birth. It was impossible to deny that Michael was Scrupulously fair and honest. When Julia realized how much richer she was Than he she wanted to pay all these expenses herself. "There's no reason why you should," said Michael. "As long as I can pay my Whack I'll pay it. You earn more than I do because you're worth more. I put you down for a good salary because you draw it."
No one could do other than admire the self-abnegation (невозможно было не восхищаться тем самоотречением: «никто не мог поступить иначе, кроме как восхищаться его самоотречением») with which he sacrificed himself for her sake (с которым он принес себя в жертву ради нее; to sacrifice — жертвовать, приносить в жертву). Any ambition he may have had for himself (и честолюбивые помыслы, которые он мог иметь бы /относительно себя/) he had abandoned in order to foster her career (он забросил, только чтобы лелеять ее карьеру). Even Dolly, who did not like him (даже Долли, которой он не нравился), acknowledged his unselfishness (признавала его бескорыстие: «не эгоистичность»). A sort of modesty (некоторая особая скромность) had always
prevented Julia (не позволяла Джулии) from discussing him with Dolly (обсуждать его с Долли), but Dolly, with her shrewdness (но Долли, благодаря своей проницательности), had long seen (уже долгое время наблюдала) how intensely Michael exasperated his wife (как чрезвычайно Майкл раздражал свою жену), and now and then (и, время от времени) took the trouble to point out (брала на себя труд указать ей) how useful he was to her (как полезен он был для нее). Everybody praised him (все восхваляли его). A perfect husband (идеальный: «совершеннейший» муж). It seemed to her that none but she knew (ей казалось, что никто, кроме нее, не знает) what it was like to live with a man (каково это — жить с человеком) who was such a monster of vanity (который был просто чудовищно тщеславен: «был монстром тщеславия»).
