War Office (был важной персоной в военном министерстве; Office —
ведомство, министерство, управление), he very soon got a commission (он
очень скоро получил офицерское звание; commission — полномочия,
комиссия, зд. — офицерское звание, патент офицера). When he went out to
France (когда он отправился во Францию) Julia bitterly regretted the reproaches
(Джулия горько сожалела об упреках) she had so often heaped upon him
(/которыми/ она так часто осыпала его; to heap — сваливать в кучу,
наваливать), and made up her mind (и решила для себя; to make up one's mind
— принять решение, решиться, mind — ум, рассудок) that if he were killed
(что если он будет убит) she would commit suicide (она покончит с собой;
suicide — самоубийство, суицид). She wanted to become a nurse (она хотела
стать медсестрой) so that she could go out to France too (так, что она смогла бы
отправится во Францию тоже) and at least be on the same soil as he (и, по
крайней мере, быть на той же земле: «почве» что и он), but he made her
understand (но он заставил ее понять) that patriotism demanded that she should
go on acting (что патриотизм требовал, чтобы она продолжала играть), and she
could not resist (и она не могла противиться: «сопротивляться») what might
very well be his dying request (/тому/, что могло на самом деле оказаться его
последней просьбой: «очень хорошо быть его предсмертной просьбой»).
