    I love my home town．It's always with me，wherever I am．

    My hometown is in the southeast of England. Since I was a child, my family has taken a summer holiday each year in Devon, which is in the southwest of England. It {#blank#}1{#/blank#} takes a three - hour drive from my home to Devon. Devon is a really great place to {#blank#}2{#/blank#} a holiday in England, and today I will tell you why.

    First of all, it's on the coast. This means you can spend plenty of time on the beach, which is fantastic {#blank#}3{#/blank#} it is sunny. Of course, you should take an umbrella to the beach because it might rain. But even if it's raining, there's {#blank#}4{#/blank#} a lot to do in Devon. There are lots of very pretty {#blank#}5{#/blank#}. You can easily spend a day looking at the shops, finding a place to eat some local fish and chips and {#blank#}6{#/blank#} an ice cream at the end of your day.

    If you're {#blank#}7{#/blank#} in history, you will find plenty of castles (城堡) and old houses to visit. Ancient kings and queens once {#blank#}8{#/blank#} there. If geology(地质学) is your thing, you will love Devon because it's famous for {#blank#}9{#/blank#} "Jurassic Coast". This is an area by the sea where the cliffs(峭壁) have a special naturally red colour. Many people come to spend a day studying the rocks. If you are {#blank#}10{#/blank#}, you can find fossils (化石) of animals in the rocks. Isn't that amazing?

    All in all, I think Devon is a great place for a holiday. There is always plenty to do, no matter what age you are.

— No, there isn't.
