Which of the travelling do you like most and why?

The fastest way of travelling is by plane. With a modern airliner you can travel in one hour to a place which takes a day to travel by train.

Travelling by train is slower than by plane, but it never­theless has its advantages. You can see the country you are travelling through and not only the clouds as you are flying. There are sleepers and dining-cars in passenger trains which make even the longest journey enjoyable. Some people like to travel by ship and enjoy a sea voyage or a river trip.

Many people like to travel by car. Travelling by car also has its advantages: you will never miss your train, ship or plane; you can make your own time-table; you can stop wherever you wish.

Travelling by car is popular for pleasure trips while people usually take a train or a plane when they are travel­ling on business.

Travelling means getting about town too. There are many ways of getting about town. You may use tram, bus and trolley-bus routes, taxi service or the Metro.

Trams, trolley-buses and buses stop to pick up passen­gers at special stops.

Sometimes the tram, bus or trolley-bus you are on do not take you right to the place you want to go. In this case you have to take another tram, bus or trolley-bus. It means you have to change trams, buses or trolley-buses.

In the Metro we often have to change for other lines.
