Task 4. Imagine that you are doing a project "City transport" together with your friend. You have found some illustrations and want to share the news. Leave a voice message to your friend. In 2,5 minutes be ready to:
• give a brief description of the photos, justifying the choice of the photos for the project;
• say in what way the pictures are different, justifying the choice of the photos for the project;
• mention the advantages and disadvantages (1−2) of the two kinds of city transtoprt;
• express your opinion on the subject of the project — what kind of city transport you prefer and why.
You will speak for not more than 3 minutes (2−3 sentences for every item of the plan, 12−15 sentences total). You have to talk continuously.
Hey, Kate. You know that? I’ve just found two pictures suitable for our project "City Transport". Let me tell you a bit more about them.
These pictures are relevant to our project because there are kinds of city transport. In the first photo there is a bus on the street. There is its route written on it. I suppose it’s a Greek bus because this language looks like Greek. In the second picture there is another type of transport — a train. It is standing on the station. There are some people on the station too. It can be also another type of public transport — a metro.
There are a few differences to illustrate our project better. Obviously, both of the pictures show different kinds of transport. The main difference is between the transport itself. Buses work on fuel or gas, while trains need only electricity.
In my opinion, the two means of transport have their advantages and disadvantages. For instance, going by bus people can admire wonderful views of the city. However, traffic jams can make this travel really awful. As for the underground, this kind of city transport is the fastest, but it may be very crowded there.
As for me, I can say that I prefer trains, because firstly it’s more ecological type of transport. Secondly, trains are usually much more comfortable transport to travel on a long distance.
So, shall we use these photos in our project? Call me when you’re ready to discuss if we can use them. Bye-bye.
