Examples from texts

The interview had done so little to remove the mystery in which Tom's new engagement was involved, and had done so much to thicken it, that neither could help smiling at the puzzled looks of the other.
Это свидание так мало рассеяло тайну, которой было облечено новое занятие Тома, и, наоборот, так сильно ее сгустило, что каждый из друзей мог только улыбнуться изумленному виду другого.

A rare cold front had come through while they were dining, and, while it was still warm by Griffen’s standards, they walked out of the restaurant into a light fog that thickened slowly as they made their way down Chartres Street to Jackson Square.
Пока они ужинали, на город надвинулся редкий холодный фронт, хотя, по меркам Гриффена, было тепло. Прямо из ресторана вся компания отправилась к площади по улице Шартр. Легкий туман постепенно сгущался.
