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. And taxis are very slow in
heavy traffic too.
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 Lingling?
Betty: Her home is the closest to school, so she walks.
Mum: How about Daming?
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.
