“Гэ́лечцы да́лі гра́мату. Там, на сцэ́не, яна́ ўсміха́лася сваёю чароўнаю белазу́баю ўсме́шкаю, кры́шку мане́рна, нібы́ арты́стка ківа́ла галавою, дзя́куючы за воплескі. Ах, вялі́кая арты́стка! А ў се́ктары яна́ шпурну́ла гра́мату, гэ́ту — як яна́ назва́ла — «нікчэ́мную папе́рку», разрыда́лася: «другі́м па тры́ццаць рублёў да́лі, а мне гэ́ту нікчэ́мную папе́рку, хай возьме яе сабе́, бу́дзе што за труною не́сці».”

Helečka was given an honorary paper certificate. There, on the stage, she was smiling her charming white-toothed smile, nodding her head with a bit of mannerism like an actress, thanking everyone for the applause. Such a great performer! But back at her department she hurled the certificate away, calling it a "worthless piece of paper", and burst into tears: "the others were given thirty rubles each, but I got this worthless piece of paper, he'd better take it for himself, at least that'd be something to show off at his funeral."

“У бягу́чым годзе прэ́міямі адзна́чаны 35 студэ́нтаў, акрамя́ таго, многія атрыма́лі гра́маты і падзя́кі.”

In the current year, 35 students have been honored with monetary awards, besides that, many received honorary paper certificates and words of gratitude.
