    Cars are very important in the life of the Americans. ⑴Without a car, most American people would feel that they are poor. And even if a person is poor, he doesn't really feel poor when he has a car. ⑵Henry Ford was the man who started making cars in large numbers. He probably didn't know how much cars would affect the American culture. Cars have made the United States a nation on wheels. And ⑶it has helped to make the United States what it is today.

    Walking through the winter park, I noticed the trees stand cold and bare. The winter has shaken their yellow leaves to the ground. As I keep walking, a noise in the background is becoming louder and clearer. Now, 100 meters ahead, a group of Chinese women gathered at the side of a path. In the cold breeze of winter, they're moving their arms and legs to a rhythm(节奏).They are, of course, the dancing aunties. It seems that if you go to any public place around China, you're likely to see these dancing aunties. When I first came to China, it was one of the things that surprised me. That's because in Britain, dancing in public is not a cultural habit. You won't see any age group swinging their arms and trapping their feet in a park. Usually, they just take a walk for exercise. Now and again the dancing aunties have hit the headlines. Some people find them annoying. But others respect their rights to dance in public. With most of them middle-aged, they finally have some free time to do whatever they like. There is no more work, and their kids have left. Personally, I like seeing these women enjoying themselves. They remind us of the importance of exercise as we get older. Besides, most of them have raised the whole family. Now it is time for them to have fun and enjoy some peace.

    One of the most famous child stars in the history of films in the United States was the great Shirley Temple. Born on April 23, 1928 in Santa Monica, California, Temple was encouraged by her mother to develop her interest in singing, acting, and dancing. She enrolled young Shirley into a dance school at the age of 3.

    Her first acting experience came while she was still in the dancing school at a very young age. She appeared in a series of short films where child actors were used to play adults. Temple gained valuable acting experience. A Fox Film songwriter's attention was very attracted by the young star, and he introduced her to studio executives. She was signed to do her first film in 1933 at the age of 5. The film Stand Up and Cheer was a big success, and Temple's career began.

    Her career is one of the most remarkable in Hollywood history. She played lots of successful roles as a child actress. She was very mature (成熟的), and talented for someone so young, but by 1942, her films began to flop. Her career was seemingly over by her teen years, and she announced her retirement(退休) in 1950. This did not stop Temple though, as she began a second career as a public servant. In 1967, she was noticed by U.S. Secretary of State, Henry Kissinger, he offered her a diplomatic (外交的) position, and she accepted. On February 10, 2014, Shirley Temple passed away at home.
