Вопрос:
28.4 Answer the questions about transport in your country. If possible, compare your answers with someone else. 1 Are trains more reliable than buses? 2 Are return tickets usually twice the price of a single? 3 Is where you live convenient for public transport? Why? / Why not? 4 How often do you take a taxi? Why, and where do you go to? 5 How often do you ride a bike?
Ответ:
- It depends on the location and the specific routes, but in general, trains are often considered more reliable than buses due to fixed routes and less susceptibility to traffic.
- In many cases, yes, return tickets are often priced lower than buying two single tickets, making them approximately twice the price of a single or slightly less.
- This is subjective and depends on where someone lives. Some areas have excellent public transport with frequent services, while others may have limited options, making it inconvenient.
- This varies from person to person. Some individuals may take taxis frequently for convenience, while others may only use them occasionally for specific situations or when other transport options are unavailable.
- This depends on personal preference and lifestyle. Some people may ride a bike regularly for exercise or commuting, while others may not ride at all.
