Странная формулировка темы. я ее понял так:   вас время от времени отправляют в командировки по разным странам, в том числе в россию. и вам там больше всего   ах да, это же сочинение от имени . наверное, он служит в разведке. в россии ему больше всего нравится, потому что там легко найти себе : каждый чиновник готов за деньги продаться. и милиция, и сотрудники фсб и министерств всех отраслей. да что сотрудники - бери выше! полное раздолье для шпиона! strange wording theme. i understood it like this: you from time to time sent on missions to different countries, including russia. and there you are like most oh yeah, it's an essay on behalf of the englishman. perhaps he is in the british intelligence. in russia he loves most, because there are easy to find yourself assistants: every official is ready to sell for money. and the police and the fsb and ministries all industries. yes the staff - take it higher! full freedom for a spy!

Put in the right words.

I like this because it means I can read a book or a newspaper. On the Continent, everybody wants to tell you his life story. Some years ago I travelled by train from London to Paris. It was my first visit to Paris so I made up my mind to tour round France for my holidays. As I was going on a long journey I took a lot of books with me. There was an Englishman in the compartment with me and, in a typically English way, he did not speak a word during our journey through the English countryside or while crossing the Channel. But the minute we were in France he said, “Ah, now we are in France, we can talk.” And for the rest of the trip to Paris he told me his life story.
