Эпитеты: молчаливый, недоверчивый мальчик Филька, позеленевшие потроны

Олицетворения: снег пел, воздух замерз, зашумела роща

Сравнения: снег пел под ногами, будто артель веселых пильщиков пилила под корень березовую рощу

Она светилась бы и мерцала, как маленькая звезда

Мельница стоит, как запаянная морозом навеки

На англ.
Epithets: the silent, suspicious Filka boy, the green-mown pots

Incarnations: the snow was singing, the air froze, the grove rustled

Comparisons: the snow sang underfoot, as if the gang of merry sawmakers sawed the birch grove under the root

She would shine and shimmer like a little star

The mill stands, as if seared by frost forever

When in Rome, do as the Romans do – that is an English proverb. However, is this proverb true? Should people act this proverb? I guess the question isn’t too difficult to be answered. You don’t have to “do as Romans do“ if you want to be disallowed and considered a stupid stranger. Of course, some nationalities are very tolerant, but some will just never accept customs and habits of other nations. It is the truth that I have never been to “Far East“ and I have never met any people from these countries, but I believe just these ones are those who are a little orthodox. They behave like this because of their religion. In some countries women aren’t almost considered “real people“ – can’t do anything without asking their husband, have to wear a “sheet“ over their face and so on. If you went to these countries, they the inhabitants would surely recognize you are a little different. You should act their habits especially in these countries. And of course not only in there.
For example, when you come to the Czech Republic, you should “do as the Czechs do“ at least a little. People will always try to accept you, but if you’ll seem to them to “unczech“, they might not like you. We appreciate all the foreigners who learn at least a few Czech words and phrases such as “Good morning!“ and those who behave at least a little politely and don’t insult our nation. In my opinion, Czechs are very a tolerant nation (we mostly see no problems in other religions worhiped in the world, homosexuality and other much discussed topics of today’s world). We do our best to better understand the other nations.
