IELTS Speaking Part 1: 'public transport' answers
Here are my answers to the questions that I showed you last Friday:
1) Do you use public transport? Why / why not?
These days I mostly drive, and the main reason is that my usual journeys are much faster by car. For example, the half-hour drive that I do twice a week would take me three times as long by train and bus.
2) Which type of public transport do you prefer? Why?
I definitely prefer the train. I like being able to stroll up and down, and on some trains I can book a seat with a table and a socket, so that I can do some work.
3) How good is the public transport where you live?
It's quite good. There's a train station not far from my house, and it's a direct line straight into the city centre. There are lots of bus routes too, and there's even a tram network in the centre of Manchester.
4) Do you think people should use public transport more? Why / why not?
Yes, as long as it's convenient for them. Public transport is obviously more environmentally friendly than private cars, so we could reduce air pollution by using it more.
