Napisałam opowiadanie zaczynające się od słów: "I was alone in the house reading..." Bardzo proszę o sprawdzenie, bo myślę, że błędów może być sporo :( Ponadto nie umiałam przetłumaczyć kilku zwrotów (są w nawiasach). Byłabym także dozgonnie wdzięczna za wzbogacenie języka, podniesienie jego poziomu. Proszę o pomoc!
I was alone in the house reading “Perfume: The Story of Murder” – a novel by Patrick Suskind. It was completely silently. I heard only the rain struck the roof. Streetlights didn’t work despite of the fact that it was the lat hour of a night. The darkness reigns outdoors. I can spot only the raindrops twinkled in the light of the Moon. I was sitting in the armchair. Wrapped in a blanket, I delved into the lecture.
The hero of the novel, Grenouille, had a incredibly expanded he sense of smell. He could recognize people (po zapachu). At the moment he was following young beautiful woman who had exceptionally nice scent. Without any word, he were going quietly and observing her.
Than, I heard gentle knocking on the stairs. It seemed to me that somebody had creeped up to my room. “What a preposterous idea!” I thought and returned to the lecture.
I knew that the woman observed would be the first victim of the murder and I was scared of reading about her death. I rose my eyesight from the book. Than I saw a pair of glittering eyes. Somebody were staying in the depth of my room and peering at me. “Aaaaa!” I shrieked automatically. Somebody jumped on me and I felt a wet tongue on my cheek. That was only my dog, which I forgot about. He came to remind about his existence.
"(Nigdy więcej) horror stories when I am alone in the house," I swore and went to bed sighting with relief.
