She rarely plucked up courage to enter his room, though he behaved courteously to her, but dryly, and only talked to her of what was necessary.
В комнату к нему она осмеливалась входить редко, хотя он обращался с нею вежливо, впрочем сухо, и говорил с нею только по какой-нибудь надобности.

Pretending to gather some "American fruit" from a tree, Lubotshka suddenly plucked a leaf upon which was a huge caterpillar, and throwing the insect with horror to the ground, lifted her hands and sprang away as though afraid it would spit at her.
Представляя, что она рвет с дерева какие-то американские фрукты, Любочка сорвала на одном листке огромной величины червяка, с ужасом бросила его на землю, подняла руки кверху и отскочила, как будто боясь, чтобы из него не брызнуло чего-нибудь.

She was sitting opposite me, chattering away, ordering a rocket salad with her Dover sole, while a string quartet in Austrian national costume plucked and fiddled some Mozart in the lobby behind us.
Она сидела напротив, трещала как сорока, заказывала дуврскую камбалу с салатом «роке», пока струнный квартет в национальных тирольских костюмах пощипывал и попиливал что-то из Моцарта в холле позади нас.

In front of me to the right of the road I saw some kind of little clump, and drawing nearer I found it was the same kind of thistle as that which I had vainly plucked and thrown away.
Впереди меня, вправо от дороги, виднелся какой-то кустик. Когда я подошел ближе, я узнал в кустике такого же "татарина", которого цветок я напрасно сорвал и бросил.

Oh, Ahab! What shall be grand in thee, it must needs be plucked at from the skies, and dived for in the deep, and featured in the unbodied air!
О Ахав! Все величие твое лишь в том, что сорвано с небес, поднято из глубин, вылеплено из бесплотного воздуха!

Being afraid of her husband, and having no means of paying, she plucked up the courage of former days and ventured on the sly to ask for a loan, on the spot, at the party, from the son of our mayor, a very nasty youth, precociously vicious.
Боясь мужа и не имея чем заплатить, она, припомнив прежнюю смелость, решилась потихоньку попросить взаймы, тут же на вечеринке, у сына нашего городского головы, прескверного мальчишки, истаскавшегося не по летам.

"Your father," she said in her fashionably appointed voice, while her fingers plucked rather pitifully at sea-green brocade, "your father, my dear boy, has--is not at Newmarket; he's on his way to South America. He--he's left us."
— Твой отец, — начала она своим отчётливым светским голосом, в то время как пальцы её беспомощно теребили зелёную вышивку на платье, твой отец, мой милый мальчик, он не в Ньюмаркете; он отправился в Южную Америку, он… он уехал от нас.

I have only one soul, I used to think; what if I lose it, I shan't be able to find another; but, afterwards, I plucked up heart, 'After all,' I thought, 'they are not gods but just the same as we are, men of like passions with ourselves.'
Душа во мне, мыслю, едина; ежели ее погублю, то сыскать другой не могу; ну а потом ободрился: "Что же, думаю, не боги же они, а такие, как и мы, подобострастные нам, человеки".

И ловко ухватил это что-то: Роланд его движения не заметил.
