اكسير الحياة، ملك الاستنتاج شكرا على الشرح الوافي ~

لدي جمل اخرى لما تستطع فهمها -وعذرا على الازعاج -


- His cold and proud nature was always averse, however, to anything in the shape of public applause.

ما معنى to anything in the shape of public applause وما علاقته بطبيعة الرجل ؟


“It strikes me, as being just a trifle too obvious

هل معنى a trifle too obvious انه: واضح جدا لحد التفاهة ؟


- He made his preparations for the day’s work with the alert air of a man who has a congenial task before him.

- مالمقصود ب air هنا؟ وما معنى alert air ؟


- I fear that the Disappearance Case will not figure in that chronicle of our successes which I foresee that a patient public will sooner or later have to endure. ماذا تعني الجملة كاملة؟


- "the man’s appearance would go far with any jury?”

- مالمقصود ب go far with jury؟ وأعتقد ان jury في هذه الجملة لا تعني هيئة محلفين


- You remember that terrible murderer, who wanted us to get him off in ’87? Was there ever a more mild-mannered, Sunday-school young man?”

ماذا يعني get him off؟ ومالقصود بالرقم هنا؟ ممكن يكون سنة تاريخية مثلا؟

ما علاقة Failing ب indication هنا ؟
