                   As one of the citizens living in Taiwan, I am proud of people and night markets. Most of the people in Taiwan are cultivated to be polite, humble, and helpful, which makes most Taiwanese treat one another with kindness. When I was young, my mom took me and my sister to a park nearby. All of a sudden, it started to rain, and we did not have any umbrella with us, nor did we have raincoats. At that very moment, one young man gave us his umbrella without saying a word and quickly ran to the store nearby to take cover from the rain. I was so touched by the act. Besides, when my sister and I were young, people in the MRT yielded seats to us. These good deeds impressed me a lot. In addition to friendliness, night market is another feature of Taiwan. People can find almost everything they need at night markets, including clothing, cuisine, appliance, entertainment and so on. There was one time I took my friends from America and Russia to the night market. My Russian friend was surprised by all the items sold at the night market. It was amazing to her that the quality was so good and the price was so reasonable. She got the same dress with only the half price of the one which she saw at the store. Moreover, people doing business at the night markets are so enthusiastic and hospitable that my friends felt being welcomed warmly.

                   To let the world know Taiwan more with its characteristics, the government can take advantage of Internet platform to shed light on the features of our country. Furthermore, participating in international aid act may also help Taiwan to get publicity among different nations. For instance, Taiwan gave away numerous masks to other countries during the pandemic period of COVID-19. Taiwan’s national flags were seen on the packages. I believe using Internet platform and participating in international aid act, and people around the world will know Taiwan better and better.
