Writer who made important contributions to literature, education and science. Among his discoveries was the atmosphere ['ætmasfra] of Venus ['vi:nas]. His interests lay in chemistry, physics, optics, geography, history and art. His poetry helped to develop the modern Russian language. Lomonosov was born in the village of Denisovka (now Lomonosovo) near Kholmogory in the far north of Russia. His father, a fisherman, eventually bought a ship and began transporting things from Arkhangelsk to other places. When Mikhail was ten, his father decided that the boy was old enough to help him. 69 However, young Lomonosov was not interested in the family business. Learning was what he wanted. His neighbour had taught him to read and he spent as much time as he could with Lomonosov in Germany books, among which there was a grammar book and a book of arithmetic [ə'r10mətik]. The knowledge he got at home was not enough for Lomonosov and in 1730, at nineteen, he left the village and joined a caravan ['kæravan] travelling to Moscow. Here he entered the Slavic Greek Latin Academy [a'kædəmi] and lived on bread and water for quite a long time but made rapid progress ['praugres] as a student. He completed a twelve-year study course [ko:s] in only five years and graduated from the Academy with brilliant results. A fantastic student, he was given an opportunity to go to Saint Petersburg University and later to the University of Marburg in Germany. The latter was among Europe's most important universities in the 18th century. Lomonosov quickly learned German and developed an interest in German literature and philosophy. He studied chemistry and began writing poetry. Lomonosov got married in Germany. The money he got from the Russian Academy of Sciences was not enough for his growing family and he decided to return to St Petersburg. выписать 5 сущ на английском языке с переводом,поставить сущ во мн ч, 5 прил и сделать три степени сравнения прил
