Exercise 3.

Every country has its customs. That’s perfectly true. When I first came to a tiny Italian village I was shocked: everyone was smiling and waving at me. The laws of hospitality prescribe local people to protect the foreigners from any trouble. In daylight and even at night you can go out without fear of being kidnapped or robbed. Though the Italian laws are imperfect  like all the laws, in the country you can rely on open-heartedness and every possible support of the natives. The law of the jungle is for huge industrial cities.

Перевод:

У каждой страны есть свои обычаи. Это совершенная правда. Когда я впервые приехал в крошечную итальянскую деревушку, я был шокирован: все улыбались и махали мне. Законы гостеприимства предписывают местным жителям защищать иностранцев от любых неприятностей. При дневном свете и даже ночью вы можете выходить на улицу без страха быть похищенным или ограбленным. Хотя итальянские законы несовершенны
, как и все законы, в этой стране можно рассчитывать на открытость и всевозможную поддержку местных жителей. Закон джунглей — для огромных промышленных городов.

Exercise 4.

1. We don’t need laws because no country can provide its citizens with perfect laws.

I disagree with this statement because even our imperfect laws protect our safety and ensure our rights as citizens against abuse by other people. Laws protect us from chaos and anarchy that would inevitably arise in our society if there were no strict rules.

Перевод:

1. Нам не нужны законы, потому что ни одна страна не может предоставить своим гражданам совершенные/идеальные законы.

Я не согласен с этим утверждением, потому что даже наши несовершенные законы защищают нашу безопасность и наши права как граждан от злоупотреблений со стороны других людей. Законы защищают нас от хаоса и анархии, которые неизбежно возникли бы в нашем обществе, если бы не было строгих правил.

2. Without laws and customs people would live like predators.

I agree with this. Without laws and customs people would do whatever they want and there would be no means of punishing them. Without laws or rules anyone would be able to take or destroy other people’s possessions without having to pay for the damage or be punished for hurting others.

Перевод:

2. Без законов и обычаев люди жили бы как хищники.

Я согласен с этим. Без законов и обычаев люди будут делать все, что захотят, и не будет никакого способа их наказать. Без законов или правил любой человек сможет захватить или уничтожить чужое имущество, и ему не придется платить за ущерб или нести наказание за причинение вреда другим.
