小知识
A town is an area where people live that's bigger than a village and smaller than a city. A town has a specific boundary, a name, and (usually) its own government.
A town is essentially a small city. It's got a smaller population and usually has fewer big apartment buildings and more single-family homes. When something or someone is in town, they are visiting your town: “I'm so excited that the circus is in town!” And if you go out on the town, you take advantage of the nightlife in a town or city.
