Stealing the Hills
Josephine Feeney

CHARTER ONE
When I was thirteen they closed the coal mine in our village. steal [sti:l] - красть;
village ['vili] - деревня;
A lot of people from the village worked there. My Dad and my two brothers were miners. Every day they walked up the hill to work. They worked far down, where they dug out the coal. ''It's hard work, Susan,'' my Dad often said to me.
When the mine closed everybody was sad. For years the miners worked hard to dig out more coal. Then, one Friday, my Dad and my brothers came home with a letter from the boss of the mine.

 

letter - письмо;

Dear Sir,
Thank you for working hard over the years.
I'm sad to say that because we have no more money, the mine will close.

Good luck to you all,
Brian Overton.

 

money ['mni] - деньги;

good luck ... - удачи ...;
Brian ['brain] - Брайен;
Eight hundred people worked at the mine. They all lost their jobs. Without jobs, they didn't have much money, so some of the shops in the village closed down too. lose [lu:z] (lost) - терять;
without [wiaut] - без;
With hundreds of others, my Dad went and looked for work. He was unlucky. ''I'm too old,'' he said. ''I'll never find another job.'' find [faind] - найти;
unlucky - несчастливый;
My brothers went to Birmingham and looked for work there. My Mum and Dad were very unhappy about this.
All the young people started to leave the village. Mum and Dad were always sad. They never smiled. I felt unhappy too, so I liked to get away from it all. young [j] - молодой;
leave [li:v] - покидать;
My friend Julie and I went for walks in the Country Park. It is so beautiful there. It's a lovely place to go for a walk and get away from it all. lovely ['lvli] - прекрасный;
place [pleis] - место;
The Country Park is about a mile outside the village. If you walk up the hill in the park, you can look down over the village. You can also see for miles and miles. It's a lovely place to sit and talk and forget about the world. outside ['aut'said] - вне;
also ['lsu] - также;
talk [t:k] - разговаривать;
forget [f'get] - забывать;
After the mine closed, Julie and I went to the Country Park every day. We walked slowly up the big hill and then sat up there. We looked down at the village. after [a:ft] - после;
slowly ['sluli] - медленно;
''Everybody's very sad,'' Julie said.
''I know. My Mum and Dad are unhappy bacause my brothers aren't here now''.
''My Dad has a lot of time at home now - he doesn't know what to do with it,'' Julie said.
''We want more jobs in the village,'' I said.
''Yes, jobs for everybody,'' Julie said.
Then suddenly, there were lots of new jobs. suddenly ['sdnli] - вдруг.

CHAPTER TWO

That was when Mr Beech arrived in the village. arrive ['raiv] - прибывать;
Mr Beech drove into the centre of the village in his big car. He walked into the post office and spoke to everybody there. drive [draiv] - ехать;
post office - почта;
After that he went next door to the bread shop where he spent a lot of money. Mrs Dale, the shop-assistant, put everything into a big box. bread [bred] - хлеб;
spend (spent) - тратить;
In the supermarket, Mr Beech spoke to all the workers and looked at the food. ''How are things?'' he asked when he paid. pay [pei] - платить;
''Not very good,'' one worker said. ''There's not much money round here. Not after...''
''The mine closed?'' Mr Beech asked. ''Don't worry,'' he said, and he put his things into another big box. ''Things will soon be different round here.'' worry ['wri] - беспокоиться;
soon - скоро;
I saw Mr Beech entered another shop. He bought a lot of meat and talked to people in there. Everybody smiled and laughed with Mr Beech. meat - мясо;
Later that day, I was up at the Country Park with Julie. I told her all about Mr Beech. ''There was a rich man in town today and he bought a lot of things.''
''That's good,'' Julie said. ''That will help some of the shops to stay open.'' stay [stei] - оставаться;
''Yes,'' I said. ''I love it up here in the summer. It's nice to look down over the village.''
''And the hills over there,'' Julie said. over there - вон там;
After that we forgot about Mr Beech, the man with lots of money. It was summer. Julie and I liked walking and walking. The sun was warm every day and we were very happy. forget [f'get] - забыть;
sun - солнце;
Then, one day, my mother opened the newspaper. She saw a picture of Mr Beech. ''Look,'' she said. ''There's that nice man, Mr Beech - he was in the supermarket two or three weeks ago, remember?'' ago ['gu] - (тому) назад;
remember [ri'memb] - помнить;
''Why is his picture in the newspaper?'' my Dad asked.
We all looked at the picture of Mr Beech. ''The paper says that Mr Beech - a rich man from London, is going to buy the old mine.'' my Mum said. ''There'll be jobs for everybody.''
''I don't know why he is buying the mine,'' Dad said. ''There's no more coal under there, I don't understand.'' understand [,nd'stnd] - понимать;
The next day everybody talked about Mr Beech. ''He's going to have a meeting'', Julie said. ''He wants to tell everybody about his plans for the village.''  

''Do you want to go?'' I asked.

''No. It won't be interesting!'' Julie said.

  
But I wanted to go. I wanted to know about Mr Beech's plans for our village. What did he want to do here?  

CHAPTER THREE

Mr Beech had the meeting in the big room next to the chirch. He stood at the door and smiled at everybody and said, ''Hello.'' Inside, in one corner, there was a big table with lovely food on it. chirch [:] - церковь;
When the meeting began, Mr Beech did not say anything. A young woman stood up at the front of the room. She was very pretty. As soon as she started to speak, everybody liked her. front [frnt] - передняя часть;
pretty ['priti] - привлекательный;
She talked about Mr Beech's plans for the old mine buildings. Then she said, ''Mr Beech now owns the supermarket too. There'll be more jobs there.'' building ['bildi] - здание;
own [un] - владеть;
It was already late. People began to look at the lovely food. They were tired. Mr Beech's plans were not very interesting for them. tired [taid] - уставший;
''One more thing,'' the young woman said. ''Mr Beech is going to buy the hill next to the Country Park.'' She began to put her things away. ''Thank you for listening,'' she said.
''What for?'' a man said from the back of the room. It was old Mr George. He was about ninety. George [:]
''I don't understand you,'' the young woman said. understand [,nd'stnd]
''Why is Mr Beech buying the hill next to the Country park?'' Mr George asked.
The young woman looked quite angry. She looked hard at Mr George. ''That's not your business,'' she said. quite [qwait] - довольно;
business ['biznis] - дело;
''Oh, yes it is my business,'' Mr George said.
People wanted to leave. They were hungry. They wanted old Mr George to be quiet. They wanted to eat all the lovely food and go home. quiet [qwait] - молчаливый;
The young woman looked at Mr Beech. He stood up and moved about. ''We're going to look for more coal there,'' he said.
''There's no coal under there!'' Mr George said angrily.
There is coal,'' Mr Beech said. ''And it isn't far down - we can dig for it easily.'' easily ['i:zili] - легко;
''What about our lovely Country Park?'' Mr George asked. ''This will ruin our park and the hill!''
''No, it won't,'' Mr Beech said. ''There'll be jobs for everybody too.''
''Somebody must stop you from buying that hill,'' Mr George said.
''It's too late. I have already bought the hill!'' Mr Beech said.
Mr George did not say any more. Everybody moved to the food table. Mr Beech and the young woman walked round the room. They smiled and talked to everybody.
''Are you hungry?'' I asked Julie.
''No,'' she said. ''Let's go and talk to Mr George. I'm sorry for him, he's over there.''
Mr George stayed in his place. He did not eat any of the food. ''He's trying to bribe everybody in the village,'' he said. He was angry. stay [stei] - находиться;
place [pleis] - место;
try [trai] - пытаться;
''What are you saying about the Country Park?'' Julie asked.
''That man's going to take everything good away from this village. Then, when he has all his money, he'll leave,'' Mr George said sadly.
''I don't understand you,'' Julie said.
''There will be big lorries all over the village. They'll ruin our Country Park,'' Mr George said. lorry ['lri] - грузовик;
''We can't have that!'' I said.
''Who can stop him?'' Mr George asked. ''He's buying everything and everybody and I'm too old to do anything.''
''We can stop him,'' Julie said. ''Mr Beech won't ruin our Country Park.''
''Good for you. I'm too old for him but perhaps you young people can do something.'' perhaps [p'hps] - возможно.
''We're going to stop Mr Beech,'' I said. ''We shall do it!''

That's all.
