Listen to the dialogue. who's adam looking at​

помнишь старика? он проходил закрытым рынком,

и пинал газету своим старым башмаком?

взгляд его погасший? и башмак, что просит каши?

старые газеты не жалеют ни о ком.

ты плачешься, что одиноко,

что солнца нет, что рветься нить?

дай мне руку. мы с тобой,

пройдем по улицам весь лондон,

чтобы ты смогла все это переоценить.

знаешь ли ты эту девочку-старушку 

с головой , обернутой тряпьем?

говорить ей некогда, она уходит в никуда,

пора чемоданов - и кров ее, и дом.

а в ночном кафе уже одиннадцать пятнадцать.

и сидит у стойки человек немолодой.

смотрит в мир, скучая за остывшей чашкой чая.

а потом один, как перст, он побредет домой. 

старенький вояка рядом с флотской богадельней.

память и , медали, ордена.

город зимний мрачен, и дождь картинно плачет.

но седой герой не нужен миру.

это настоящий перевод песни. не знаю, подойдет ли тебе. но все же.

3. who is he?

4. where does he live?

1)how long have you been saving for christmas  and new year presents? - как долго ты копил на рождественские и новогодние подарки?

2)did you save enough money fоr the new year party? - ты накопил достаточно денег для новогодней вечеринки?

remember the old days, when  lebron james  had championship aspirations with the  cleveland cavaliers? before  the decision  and before dan gilbert's angry letter written in comic sans?

lebron's dominance was at a level where he actually had people believing that antawn jamison could be the missing piece to a championship team. the akron hammer got mo williams into an all-star game. oh yeah, and by playing with james, anderson varejao is now considered "untouchable." no wonder lebron took his talents to south beach.

anyone who watches the  nba, or even listens to what some of the announcers have to say, can tell you the impact that an elite player can have on his team.

prime example—lebron turned a team full of average role players into a no. 1 seed and title contenders. as soon as he leaves town, they're a team struggling to even compete on a nightly basis, landing the top pick in the nba draft. and as soon as people saw this, we all understood why lebron left.

these special players are at a premium, even in today's superstar league. and with the recent alignment of star players, very few are left on their own the way lebron was in cleveland. one of these players is due for free agency in one year. you may have heard of him:   dwight howard.

howard is an absolute monster on both ends of the floor who is as capable of taking over a game as anyone in the league. opposing teams guard him with at least two players at all times, usually with very little success. teams have resorted to recycling defenders who simply foul d12 in hopes that he won't make his free throws. given the shortage of quality big men in the league, howard's ability is even more valuable considering he gets to exhibit it against many low-quality big men.
