Betty: I was late for school today.
Mum: Why? What happened?
Betty: I took the bus. There was a road accident, and the traffic was very heavy. But nobody was late,except me. Maybe I should go to school by taxi.
Mum: It’s the most comfortable way, but it’s also the most expensive.
Betty: Then what about going by bike?
Mum: That’s a good choice, but it’s a bit dangerous. There’s so much traffic.
Betty: But most of my classmates ride bikes, and it’s quite safe. Don’t worry. I’ll be careful.
Mum: How does Tony go to school?
Betty: He lives the farthest from school, so he takes the underground.
Mum: And what about Betta?
Betty: Her home is the closest to school, so she walks.
Mum: How about Jimmy?
Betty: He goes by bus too, the same as me. But it’s so crowded! And the traffic is heavy.
Mum: All right. You can ride your bike to school, but remember to be careful all the time.

Many people like to travel by plane, but I don’t like it because an airport is usually far from the city. You have to get there early and wait for hours for the plane to take off and it is often late. You can’t open the window.You can’t choose the food. Planes are fast, but they still take hours to get out of the airport and into the city.
I like traveling by train. I think trains are safe. Railway stations are usually in cities. When you are late for a train you can catch another one. You can walk around in the train and open the windows. You can see many interesting things on your way. I know it takes a little more time.
I also like cars. You can start your journey when you want to, and you don’t need to get to a railway station or a bus stop early. Also you can carry many things with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road.
