Answer 2

Answer in detail. Choose the correct translation into English of the fragment given in brackets I wouldn't want (никто) of my parents to know I have a boyfriend. A) either B) nobody C) one D) it

The correct translation into English of the fragment given in brackets is A) either. This is because the word "никто" in Russian means "no one" or "nobody" in English, and it is used with a negative verb to express the absence of any person. However, in English, when we have a negative verb and a choice between two or more alternatives, we use the word "either" to mean "any of them". For example:

- I don't like either of them. (Я не люблю никого из них.) - She wouldn't tell either of us the truth. (Она не сказала бы никому из нас правду.)

Therefore, the complete sentence in English would be:

- I wouldn't want either of my parents to know I have a boyfriend. (Я не хотела бы, чтобы кто-нибудь из моих родителей знал, что у меня есть парень.)
