Перевод на англ. яз рассказа Е. Шатько 12децибелов

 A scientist Mylnikov who didn't avoid any idea in fish-breeding decided fo finish his scientific report in the quiet atmosphere of home cosiness.
Early in the morning he sat at the table.He hardly managed to write down some words:
"fish is seeking where is deeper..."as astrong knock cracked over his head.They were knocking without cease.Mylnikov began counting knocks.
He thought after thirty thirdth knock:
-They are stiching weedings.
He changed his mind after the sixtyeigth knock:
-They are repairing some fundamental thing-the armchairs,for exampele, or TV set...
When the third hundred was coming to end he took aut a blister.Drop by drop he went on counting knocks:
Two hundred and ninety eight,two hundered and ninety nine,three hundred...
  A thunderlike knock sounded just af the moment so after words "...fish is seeking where is deeper... "he added hurriedly:
-theree hundred and twenty one,pip."#
Having gasped he thought angerily:
-Well then,the man is knocking measuring his strength as an abstinent,maybe hehas holidays to repair the furniture,maybe it is his hobby to
stretch matrasses again,but you are injuring him,yuo squabbler,dictator!
But still when the heighbour's door was open he cried in a hysterical voice:
-Look!You!Elizaveta Semjonovna!-then finishing in a weaktone:
Do you have some salt,please?To do fish right well...
Mylnikov gripped salf,came back and meditated with the fish report again.
  They began jabling and hacking on some iron things above him
-They are forging...-Mylnikov thought.-Strike while the iron is hot.Oh!Maube the tap is out of order and they are too shy...


#321-The final score in a cardgame,pip.
