“I called out on purpose that you might be prepared,” Pyotr Stepanovitch said hurriedly, with surprising naivete, running up to the table, and instantly staring at the corner of the letter, which peeped out from beneath the paper-weight.
- Я нарочно крикнул изо всей силы, чтобы вы успели приготовиться, - торопливо с удивительною наивностью прошептал Петр Степанович, подбегая к столу, и мигом уставился на преспапье и на угол письма.

It's not surprising that the adoption of the SQL2 standard in this area has been relatively slow compared to some other areas where implementation was much easier.
Поэтому неудивительно, что поддержка стандарта SQL2 в этой области внедрялась медленно.

Her face, like the face of Malachi Constant, was a one-of-a-kind, a surprising variation on a familiar theme - a variation that made observers think, Yes - that would be another very nice way for people to look.
У нее, как и у Малаки Константа, было единственное в своем роде лицо — поразительная вариация на избитую тему, — так что каждый собеседник невольно ловил себя на мысли: «Да, лицо не как у людей, а красота? Побольше бы таких!»

" This code is what is usually meant in the literature by the unqualified term "Gray code." We will show, usually without proof, how to do some basic operations in this representation of integers, and we will show a few surprising properties.
Именно этот код обычно имеется в виду, когда говорят о неконкретном "коде Грея". Покажем (как обычно, без доказательств), как выполняются основные операции при таком представлении целых чисел, и расскажем о некоторых интересных свойствах кода Грея.

The nuptials were prepared. There was surprising pomp and magnificence; there were fetes, carousals, continual opera bouffe; and all Italy composed sonnets in my praise, though not one of them was passable.
Все было готово к свадьбе; начались дни торжеств, неслыханно великолепных, — празднества, конные состязания, опера буфф, беспрерывные увеселения; со всех концов Италии я получала сонеты, из которых ни один не был сколько-нибудь сносным.

It is not surprising that in the verdict there is not a reference to a single expert, to a single witness who would confirm the drivel about the equivalency of the factual value of the oil in the field to the rice for oil in Western Europe.
Не удивительно, что в приговоре нет ссылки ни на одного эксперта, ни на одного свидетеля, который бы подтвердил чушь об эквивалентности фактической стоимости нефти на промысле цене на нефть в Западной Европе.
