i’d like to tell you about a book by a russian novelist, nikolai gogol. it’s called “the government inspector”. it’s a satirical play. i’ve recently read this book in my literature lessons.
let me tell you a bit about this book. the action takes place in a small provincial town. the main character is khlestakov. he’s a young man who is silly and broke. but he’s a very self-loving man. he tells lies with pleasure. khlestakov has careless a fantasy. he arrives in the town and is mistaken for the government inspector.
as you can imagine, the plot is very interesting and funny. the comedy shows human stupidity and greed. also the problems of society are shown there.
1.The weather was not good.The sky was full of dark clouds and soon it started raining heavily.
2.While he was driving to the airport, the storm got worse. Suddenly, a huge flash of lightning struck a tree. It came crashing down just metres in front of his car. The fallen tree completely blocked the road, so he was stuck. He tried to call the emergency services on his mobile, but the line was dead.
3.He was positive that he would miss his plane, so he turned on the radio and tried to get used to the idea.
4. There was a loud knock at the window, it was a young man in leather clothes. The yound man grabbed his bags, climbed carefully onto the motorcycle and shouted urgently, “To the airport, please!”
It was his first time on a motorcycle so he was terrified. The young man drove so fast that autor kept my eyes tightly shut all the way. “We are here!” he said.He looked at my watch and saw that I was just in time for my flight.
5.As soon as his plane took off, he breathed a huge sigh of relief. He could now relax and enjoy his holiday.
