France is wellknown for its fine art, tasty food and beautiful scenery(风景). So about 75 million visitors come here every year.
France is the largest country in Western Europe. It has a population of over 66 million. There are many famous places of interest in France, like the River Seine as well as the Eiffel Tower.
Many visitors also come for the country's art. If you visit France today, it is not a surprise to meet street artists in the city or come across a singer in the subway.
No visit to Paris is perfect without a trip to the Louvre, one of the largest and most famous museums in the world. Inside, there are 35,000 works of art, such as the painting Mona Lisa by Da Vinci and the statue(雕塑) David by Michelangelo. It would take nine months to enjoy all works of art.
French food is also worldfamous. Bread is very important in France. The best known French bread is called a baguette(法棍面包). It's long and delicious and tastes salty. Snails(蜗牛) are also a musthave here. French people eat 40,000 tons of snails every year!
But France is not always good. Paris, the city of light, may also show its dark side to visitors. Chinese visitors feel sorry about the crowded subway in Paris.

I have always been interested in the animal world. Recently, I read a book about animals called A Lion's Travelling. Chinese writer Shen Shixi wrote it.
The book tells the story of five lions. After they are made to leave their home, one is hurt by a giraffe. Another is killed by a hunter. The third one dies during a fight for water. The fourth lion dies in the river. Only the youngest one, named Red Ribbon, is still alive. After going through many difficulties, he finally becomes the lion king.
The story shows the love and care between friends, the life and death faced by brothers, the determination (决心) to deal with challenges. The fact that the young lion finally becomes the king teaches me a great lesson: Those experiences of going through difficulties will make us stronger. Everyone will face lots of difficulties during their lifetime. We should learn to stay strong and keep finding our better selves.
The book is full of something exciting about the life of lions. Together with lovely pictures, it gives readers a wonderful experience. If you want to read the great story and learn a lot about the animals in the real world, choose it!
