We have only had cars for about 120 years and they were so slow and noisy. Two German engineers made the first car in 1885, it only had 3 wheels. Companies like Rolls-Royce were very expensive because people made each car by hand. In 1913 the Ford Motor Company started to make their cars in a special factory and they were less expensive than other cars. So by 1950 American cars were large but in Europe and Asia drivers preferred small cars. Most cars have a gasoline or a Diesel engine. The driver starts the engine with a key and the engine can power the front, the back or all four wheels. The driver uses the pedals to go faster, to change gears, and to stop. Cars usually have five gears for going forward and one gear for going backward. You have to wear a seat belt to protect yourself if there is a crush. Sports car are low. This helps the car to go fast because air can move easily over it. Bugatti Veyron goes faster than 400 kilometers per hour and cost 1.5 million US dollars. The Peel P50 is the smallest car in the world. It was first made in 1963 and is 134 centimeters long and 99 centimeters wide, its top speed is 61 kilometers per hour.
I would like to tell about Karlsson, my favourite character from a famous book written by Swedish author Astrid Lindgren. Karlsson is a short, stout, overconfident man, who lives in a small house on the roof of an ordinary apartment building. Karlsson has a button on his belly. When he presses this button, it activates a little propeller on his back. Thanks to this he can fly.
Karlsson made friends with Lillebror, a little boy who lived in one of the flats. His parents love him very much, however Lillebror often feels lonely. Karlsson and Lillebror became best friends.
We don't know how old Karlsson is, but his jokes and games seem to be very funny for little children. Karlsson is very imaginative. A lot of ideas cross his mind all the time. He knows how to entertain the little boy. Karlsson is a real expert when it comes to playing a trick. Despite all this, I would say that Karlsson is a positive character. He supports Lillebror, he is always there when the boy needs him, he listens to him and helps him a lot.
