Last Monday Angie got up for work as usual and
went to the kitchen to have some breakfast. But when she opened the fridge, she found that her flat-mate Lucy had drunk all the milk – not a good
start to the day! So she had a quick
cup of black coffee, got dressed and
went out to the car. There she found that she had forgotten to put the cover on the car the night before and
there was thick frost all over the
windscreen. She scraped it all off
and got into the car. However, when
she turned the key, nothing happened! Someone had left the headlights on and the battery went flat. She was
furious as Lucy had used the car
last and it was her who had forgotten to switch off the lights.
Angie headed for the bus stop to
wait in the freezing cold.
The most popular means of transport is a car. Nowadays there are so many car producers and brands that a car becomes the most popular and comfortable type of transport. You can travel by car everywhere. The only thing that can stop you is your driving license and the foreign country rules. А dream of many people is to buy a car and for most of them it comes true.
Another popular transport is a bus. Not everyone can drive or many people just want to enjoy the view and concentrate on their thoughts while travelling. And the bus allows all these. The cost of travelling by bus is much lower than that of a car.
Bicycle is popular among young people. They use it during the warm seasons to travel around the city or the nearby places. It’s healthy and affordable for most of people.
Train is popular for its low cost and cozy atmosphere. You can make a long travel on the train and don’t need to pay a lot for it.
Planе is popular for its speed but the cost is quite high. It is thought to be the safest means of transport among all. The most luxurious means of transport is a ship. I mean not those small ordinary ships, but the ones that travel across the oceans with thousands of tourists. They are often called liners.
So we just need to pick up the one we like and completely enjoy it.

Существует столько видов транспорта, сколько вообще можно вообразить. Это автобус, велосипед, автомобиль, корабль, поезд, самолет и так далее. И сегодня я хочу обсудить их.
Самым популярным средством передвижения является автомобиль. В наше время существует так много производителей автомобилей и так много марок, что автомобиль становится наиболее популярным и комфортным видом транспорта. Вы можете путешествовать на машине везде. Единственное, что может остановить вас — это ваше водительское удостоверение и правила вождения в другой стране. Покупка автомобиля — это мечта многих людей, и у большинства она сбывается.
Еще одним популярным транспортом является автобус. Не каждый может водить или многие люди просто хотят насладиться видом и сконцентрироваться на своих мыслях во время путешествия. И автобус позволяет все это. Стоимость проезда на автобусе значительно ниже, чем стоимость использования автомобиля.
