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.
In my free time I like to go the park to meet up with my friends. It is not far from our school so we go there after our classes. The park is a quiet place with lots of trees and there are benches there. We usually listen to music and dance there. Sometimes we go roller-skating there or just sit in the local cafe having milkshakes or ice-cream. I enjoy spending my time there, it is really relaxing.
Перевод:
В свободное время я люблю ходить в парк, чтобы встретиться с друзьями. Он находится недалеко от нашей школы, поэтому мы ходим туда после уроков. Парк — тихое место с множеством деревьев и скамейками. Там мы обычно слушаем музыку и танцуем. Иногда мы катаемся на роликах или просто сидим в местном кафе. заказав молочные коктейли или мороженое. Мне нравится проводить там время, это действительно расслабляет.
