    There are four great places to have fun in Sunshine Town.

    Being outgoing is good for your life. Those people who are more outgoing like to meet lots of people and have more fun in life. In fact, being outgoing is not so hard as you think. Even shy people can be outgoing.

    You can start to become outgoing with your best friends or a group of friends. But the real challenge comes when you meet strangers or new friends. Smile more and usually they will reply to your smile. In this way, you may have some talks.

    Start a talk. Just a simple "Hello." or "How is it going?" is a good start. If you want to make interesting I talks, you can read news in newspapers and prepare your views, or surf the Internet for new information and then keep that in mind.

    The easiest way to become more outgoing is to go out. This is also the most important step. Go to a park, beach, club, party or any other place that you think can be fun, and you may make new friends there.

    I like traveling (旅行) to interesting places Taking a train is now my favorite way of traveling.

    Traveling by plane is the fastest way. However, I don't want to spend too much on the ticket. Traveling by bus is usually the cheapest, but it's really too slow.

    Last year, I had a train trip from Beijing to Guangzhou. I bought a Train G69 ticket and started my trip. It's high-speed- train (高铁). Later learned Beijing-Guangzhou- High-Speed Railway is now the longest high-speed railway in the world. It is about 2,298 kilometers long. The train travels at about 350km/h, much faster than the trains in the past.

    I had a wonderful time on the train. It was the most comfortable trip for me. Train G69 has more comfortable seats and much bigger room (空间). It was easy for me to find something to eat in the restaurant car.

    From this trip, I found that traveling by train was the best way for me. I would enjoy train trips after that.

    The first cartoons came out in newspapers. They told stories by using pictures. In this movie, an artist drew pictures of two faces on a blackboard. The faces came to life. There were lot of animals in early cartoons. One well-known early cartoon character was Felix the Cat. Walt Disney started to make cartoons in the 1920s. But in Disney's cartoon, it was called Alice in Cartoon Land. Walt Disney's most famous cartoon character was Mickey Mouse. It was made in 1928, first in a black-and-white movie without sound, then very soon after that in a talking movie and later in color.

    Today, over a hundred years later, cartoons are still popular with people. Because they are so special. Who is more popular than cartoons with both kids and adults?

    I come from London- very big city in England. Over 8 million (百万) people 1 here, so it's always 2. So moving to a town 3 only, 5,000 people was a big change for 4. There are some differences between the two 5.

    The town I am living in now is 6, so everyone knows each other. At home in London, I don't 7 know my neighbors. Also the air in town is 8. I like nature, and it's interesting to see 9 the trees change in different seasons. My favorite thing about living in town is that can see many 10 at night. can hardly see any in London. Here 11 is dark at night and the stars twinkle (闪烁) in the sky.

    However, it's easy to go around in London. I can 12 buses or trains almost 13. Another good thing is that there are lots of 14 in London, so I can buy what I need easily.

    I always 15 I was a city girl, but now I like the town, too. They are like two different worlds, but both are interesting.
