Examples from texts

They hurried forward through the new light and receding shadow, following the moor cat as he guided them along the twist of the foothills to where the Ravenshorn bent north.
Они поспешили вперед, сквозь набирающий силу свет и отступающий сумрак, — громадный кот вел путешественников вдоль холмов прямо к изгибу Вороньего Среза.

Suddenly, the roar subsided from all around me, like a tide receding. I thought I was passing out.
И тут я почувствовал, что оглушительный рев вокруг резко стих - так, будто вода в реке моментально ушла.

The land below us was in twilight and vague, but westward the vast gray stretches of the Atlantic shone like molten silver under the receding day.

Glaciers have been receding for several centuries, accumulation rates have dropped since 1840 due to a change in the Pacific trade winds, and even bold and quick CO2 cuts will change this very little.
Ледники таяли в течение нескольких столетий, скорость их роста снизилась с 1840 года вследствие изменения направления тихоокеанских пассатов, и даже стремительное сокращение выбросов СО2 мало что изменит в этой ситуации.

После этого стукнула стеклянная дверь, ушли ввысь замирающие шаги, и все стихло.
