Question

Помогите пожалуйста люди добрые нужен пересказ текста на английском языке Robert Shannon will be able to continue his studies only if he gets the scholarship founded by Sir John Marshall, but his best friend Gavin becomes his rival. It was the first day of the Easter Holidays. I was going fishing with Gavin. The last pleasure I allowed myself before beginning to prepare for the Marshall. We met early in the morning. Gavin was waiting for me. Impossible to describe the silent joy of our meeting... We walked side by side through the quiet village to the lake. “No fishing until evening, I am afraid”, Gavin murmured. “No wind and the day is too bright”. Until the sun went down, Gavin and I sat on an upturned boat, outside his father's fishing hut. We spoke very little. At seven o'clock, after Mrs. Glen, the woman of the cottage had given us some tea and boiled eggs and milk, we pushed the boat into the water. I took the oars. When we were far from the shore, Gavin spoke, hidden by the growing darkness. “I understand you are sitting the Marshall, Robie?” I was greatly surprised. “Yes… How did you know?” “Mrs. Keith told my sister”, Gavin paused, breathing heavily. “I am trying for it too”. I looked at him in silence. I was shocked and confused. “But Gavin… You do not need the money!” Gavin frowned. "You'll be surprised." He spoke slowly. "My father has had trouble in the business". He paused. "He has done so much for me... now then he is worried, I would like to do something for him." I was silent. I knew that Gavin adored his father; and I had heard whispers that all was not well with the Mayor's business. Yet his words came as an unexpected blow. "All the cleverest boys in the country are competing," he continued. "One more won't make much difference. Besides there is the honour of the town. It is twelve years since a Levenford boy took the scholarship." He drew a deep breath. “One of us must win it”. “You may be the one, Gavin”, I said in a low voice; I knew he was a fine scholar. Gavin replied slowly. “I would like to win for my father’s sake. But I think you have a better chance”. He paused. “If you win, will you go on to be a doctor?” Gavin was the only person on earth to whom I could tell the truth. I said: “I wish with all my heart to be a medical biologist, you know, a doctor who does research”. There was a long pause. “Yes”, Gavin said thoughtfully. “It is bad that we have to fight each other over the scholarship. But, it will not affect our friendship, of course”. Yet I felt a sudden sadness in my heart. I thought: “Gavin and I… One of us must be defeated”. ,,

Answer 2

Robert Shannon and his best friend Gavin are preparing to compete for a scholarship founded by Sir John Marshall. Robert's future studies depend on receiving this scholarship. On the first day of the Easter Holidays, Robert and Gavin decide to go fishing together as a last leisure activity before focusing on their preparations. They meet early in the morning and walk together through the quiet village towards the lake.

Gavin informs Robert that they won't be able to fish until evening because the weather conditions are unfavorable. As they wait for the sun to go down, they sit on an upturned boat outside Gavin's father's fishing hut. They spend the time in silence, reflecting on their upcoming competition. Later in the evening, after being offered tea, boiled eggs, and milk by Mrs. Glen, they push the boat into the water. Robert takes the oars, and as they move farther from the shore, Gavin reveals that he is also competing for the Marshall scholarship.

Robert is surprised by this revelation and questions Gavin's motive since he doesn't seem to need the scholarship. Gavin explains that his father has encountered business troubles, and he wants to help him by winning the scholarship. Although Robert is taken aback, he realizes how much Gavin cares for his father. Gavin mentions that many talented boys are competing for the scholarship, but he believes one more competitor won't make much difference. He emphasizes the importance of bringing honor to their town, as it has been twelve years since a student from Levenford won the scholarship.

Robert admits that Gavin might have a better chance of winning due to his scholarly abilities. Gavin then asks if Robert intends to pursue a medical career if he wins the scholarship. Robert confides in Gavin, expressing his deep desire to become a medical biologist and engage in research. They both acknowledge the unfortunate situation of having to compete against each other for the scholarship but assure each other that it won't affect their friendship.

However, Robert feels a sense of sadness, realizing that either he or Gavin will ultimately be defeated in their pursuit of the scholarship.
