No one gave any thought to Mount Vesuvius, a 2 close to Pompeii.Vesuvius had been inactive for years. The 3 in that area was good for agriculture. The people of Pompeii had no reason to fear the volcano. But the sleeping mountain was about to wake up...
The 4 when it happened, was unlike anything 5 before. A huge cloud of hot ash and rock rose into the air, covering the 6 area. Pompeii was left in total darkness.
A young man, watching from a distance, recorded how the thick dark cloud 7 everywhere. He described how people were 8 by the sudden disaster.They took what they could as they tried to get away from the city. But many were trapped by falling buildings.
Suddenly, there was a powerful flow of gas, ash and rock. It moved down Vesuvius at a speed of about 9 kilometres an hour. When it reached Pompeii,it 10 killed anyone in its path. The city was covered by up to six metres of ash. Pompeii became a city frozen in time.
