In Britain the most popular form of transport is the car. People use it everyday to get to work, go to the supermarket and take the children to and from school.
However, in a busy city centre, where there are not many parking spaces, people prefer to use public transport such as taxis, buses and trains. In London the Underground is the fastest and most convenient way of getting around.
In the countryside things are not quite the same. People travel by car everywhere as buses and trains are not very frequent.

Visiting the USA has become easier recently. People who live in Argentina, Australia, Britain, Canada, Japan, Singapore, Uruguay and most European countries do not need a visa to visit the USA. They can visit for 90 days or less. All they need is a current passport and a return ticket.
Other visitors need a visa which they can apply for at the American Consulate or Embassy in their own country. This is a slightly more complicated procedure, but not too difficult.

Ludwig van Beethoven was born in 1770 in Bonn, Germany. He was the eldest of three boys. His father and grandfather were musicians.
Ludwig started learning the violin and piano at a very early age. In 1783 his first composition was published. When he was 17, he travelled to Vienna to study under Mozart. But soon he returned to Bonn because of his mother’s illness. In 1795 he gave his first performance as a pianist. It was a success. In the late 1790s, Beethoven began to lose his hearing and by 1819 he was completely deaf. It was during this period that he wrote some of his most famous compositions like ‘Moonlight’ (1801), ‘Pastoral’ (1808). After he became deaf, he continued to compose great music. In his later years, he was lonely, depressed and didn’t write much.
Beethoven died on March 26, 1827 in Vienna. More than 10, 000 people came to his funeral.
Beethoven was the first composer who used music to express deep feelings and ideas. Even today he is, for many people, the greatest composer ever.

The Americans, like the British, prefer travelling by car. American families often have two cars and many high school students drive themselves to school.
In large cities such as Boston, New York and Washington DC public transport is very good. There are overhead and underground rail systems and a regular bus service. In the countryside, Americans prefer to use their cars to get around because they often have to drive along distance to get to school or work.
When visiting friends or relatives in another state, Americans usually prefer to travel by aeroplane. This is because the USA is so huge that it can take many days to travel by road or rail.
