Conversation

Tell me about journeys by bus, train or car. What is important or interesting for you?

Good answer:

I usually prefer travelling by train because I can look out of the window or read. Cars are comfortable, but traffic can make the journey stressful.

Can you tell me about a recent or past experience connected with journeys by bus, train or car?

Good answer:

Last month I travelled by train to visit my cousin. The train was busy, but I found a seat and listened to music. I remember it because the journey did not go exactly as planned.

Why do you think journeys by bus, train or car can be important for people?

Good answer:

Journeys are important because people need to reach work, school, family and holidays. A good journey can make the day easier. Transport is important because it connects people with school, work and family.

What would you like to do in the future connected with journeys by bus, train or car?

Good answer:

Later, I would like to take a long train journey through another country. I think it would be more relaxing than flying. I would like to travel more independently and understand the routes better.

Can you compare two choices or give advice about a problem connected with journeys by bus, train or car?

Good answer:

Trains are faster for long distances, but cars are better if you have many bags. I would choose the train for a city trip. You should leave early if the journey is important.
