Buses can offer us convenient service, even door to door. But taking buses for too long will make usfeel tired for we cant move freely. So when I go to a distant place, I prefer trains. On trains, we can move freely or sleep on the bed comfortably. Free speechEspecially after speeding-up several times, trains take us less time than ever before. Sometimes, we have to take ships. Frankly speaking, I dont like ships. Ships are easily affected by the weather and much slower. Theres no doubt that airplanes are the fastest but the most expensive. Although I will never forget how excited I was when I was on the airplane for the first time, I wont take them easily because of the high-price tickets. Every coin has two sides. So, no wonder different people have different preferences to different means of transport. Imagine that you plan to spend a holiday. Choose a place you want to visit. Think about the fare for different kinds of transport and decide how to get there. Then, get into pairs. Use these questions to make a dialogue about your holidays.
