     New York is a very large city with 8 million people. How do so many people move about the city on their
way to work and school? So, we should know something about its transport.
     In New York you can travel about the city by subway, bus, taxi and car. The subway runs on the railroad
lines under the city. It crosses the city at different points and goes to all parts of the city. Traveling by subway
is the fastest way to get around the city.
     The second way to travel around the city is by public bus. It's a slower way to travel. This is because the
bus moves in road traffic which is often heavy.
     You can also travel around the city by taxi. This is the most expensive way, but the taxi will take you to the
very place you wish to go to. If traffic is heavy, the taxi will be slow. During the mornings and afternoons,
there is the "rush hour". This is the time when the traffic is very heavy with people going to and from work.
     The last way to get around New York is using your own car. However, it's not easy for you to drive,
especially when you are driving in the "rush hour". If there is an accident on the road, you will have to wait for
a long time.
     The best time to travel around the city is from 9 a.m. to 4 a. m. This is the time after the morning "rush
hour" and before the evening "rush hour". Traffic will be less crowed because most people are already at
school or at work.

     Guess who is the most successful young writer in China? It is 24-year-old Guo Jingming, who
earned $ 1.4 million last year, according to the Ne.7u York Times.
     Guo started his writing career in high school when he won first prize in a national writing contest
in 2001. His first book, City of Fantasy, came out soon after the contest and went on to sell more than
1. 5 million copies.
    Almost all Guo's novels include a shy hero who gets good grades. He mostly writes about the sad
feelings of his young characters. These teenagers deal with loneliness by sitting alone for long hours
under trees and on rooftops. "Xiaosi(Guo's nickname), I will always be with you!" A reader wrote in
Guo's blog. "My main goal (目标) is to tell the story well and have everyone like it," Guo said.
     In fact, Guo is seen more as an idol than as a writer. His handsome outlooking, cross-dressing and
strange actions make newspapers pay more attention to himself than his books. Many fans are eager to
get his autograph.
    But today he faces what may be more dangerous threat (威胁): even younger writers. The past few
years have seen the rise of a group of teenage writers, sometimes called the "Post-90s" generation.
However Guo seems to have plans to meet them. Next year, he will hold a national competition for
these rivals (对手).
