1. At last the librarian (gave) me the book which I (had been waiting) for during two months. I was very glad. I (went) home and (began) reading it at once. 2. Don’t speak to him: he (is) very busy, he (is doing) some very urgent work. 3. I did not want him to go there: I (was) afraid that something (would happen). 4. I did not notice that my watch (had stopped), and when I (arrived) at the station, my train (had left) and I (had) to ask when the next train (would come). 5. He (had been waiting) for fifteen minutes when at last he (saw) her at the end of the platform. 6. By the end of the year he (had read) about two hundred pages. 7. We were happy when the sun (rose), for the night (had been) very cold. 8. Where have you (put) my dictionary? I cannot find it anywhere. 9. I (had not yet fallen) asleep when the telephone (rang). 10. What were you (doing) from six till nine yesterday?
"The Birth of Venus" - Bottocelli's masterpiece. Here it is, Sandro Botticelli's "The Birth of Venus". This painting is one of the most famous paintings in the world. In The Birth of Venus we see the wind Gods, Zephyr and Aura, blowing Venus to shore after she rises from the sea triumphantly. Here we see the handmaid, Ora, wait for Venus to come closer to shore so she can dress the goddess to transform her into a mother and saint. Venus heavenly stands on the big seashell, her sight is on the distance so she looks so thoughtful. Wind is blowing her long and gold hair, making it look more insanely beautiful. Zephyr, hugging his love, Aura, looks so brave and confident. He blows Venus and the flowers, flying in the air.
