Перевести и зд сделать waves for a shilling many years ago the london theatre gave a play in which there was a great storm at sea. in those days theatres had no machines. therefore the director engaged several boys to make waves on the sea. the boys jumped up and down under a big piece of sea-green cloth. "the waves" received one shilling a night for their work. they worked for several weeks, but then the director decided to pay them only a sixpence a night. the boys went on strike. so when the storm began, when the wind blew and it rained, the sea was quiet, there were no waves on it. the angry director lifted a corner on the "sea" and said to the boys: "make waves, boys". "do you want waves for a shilling or of a sixpence? " - asked one of them in a loud voice. "oh, for a shilling," - said the director. the boys began to jump up and down again so well that the storm was a great success. 1. answer the questions 1. what kind of play did a london theatre give many years ago? 2. did theatre have machines in those days? 3. who made waves on the sea? 4. what was the pay? 5. what did the director decidd to do? 6. did the boys agree to get, a sixpence a night? 7. they went on strike, didn`t they? 8. what happened during the performance? 9. what did the director ordet the boys to do? 10. what was the boy`s question? 11. what was the director`s answer? 12. were the waves a great success?
