Some people have to use public transport, some dislike it and still some love it. If everyone has a car and drives anywhere they want to go, there will be serious traffic problems on the road. Luckily, trains are a good form of public transport.

British people use trains a lot. This is especially so for people who are travelling from London to Paris. Every day about 20 trains leave London. They travel at a very high speed and people feel glad that the trains take only 2 hours and 30 minutes to reach Paris. It's much faster to travel by train than by bus or by car. This is because people have to drive cars or buses very carefully and lowly for many reasons, such as speed limits and traffic jams. However, when you are travelling by train, the speed is almost the same and there is no traffic jam for a train.

Besides, Londoners think taking a train is one of the safest ways of travelling on the ground. Trains take quite a number of quality tests while they are made. More importantly, they have to take many safety checks before they are used on the rail track.

What's more, trains in Britain are comfortable and provide fine services for their users. When you are on a London train, you will find that the train has comfortable tables and seats where people can sit. They also provide food services and power plugs(電源插頭) for personal computers or mobile phone.

A reader wrote in to say that she was feeling left out at break(課間休息) because her best friend wasn’t around．Here’s our advice to her, and to all kids who feel lonely sometimes．

It’s hard when a best friend isn’t around，maybe because she moved to a different school or a different class．You may feel lonely at break or lunchtime．You want to have new friends．But how do you make them? Maybe it seems like everybody else already has their friends．But remember, there’s always room for more friends．

Look for chances to say hi to them，smile and be friendly．Offer to share something or express your appreciation（欣賞）to them．Invite someone to play with you or say “Do you want to sit here?” at lunchtime．When you are at break，walk over to kids you want to play with，act friendly, and say “Hi, can I play, too?” or just join in．

If you have trouble doing this or if you’re feeling shy, ask your teacher to help you make new friends．Teachers are usually pretty good at matching up friends．The best way to make friends is to be a friend．Be kind，be friendly, share，say nice things，offer to help，and soon，you’11 have one，or two，or even more new friends．
