Many people like to travel（旅行）by plane，because it is fast，but I dolt like it because an airport（飞机场）is usually far from the city．You have to get there early and wait for hours for the plane to take off and it is often late．You can't open the window．You can’t choose（选择）the food．And you wait for hours to get out of the airport and into the city．

I like traveling by train．I think trains are safe（安全）．The stations are usually in cities．When you are late for a train，you can catch another one．You cad walk around in the train and open the windows．You can see many interesting things on your way．I know it takes a little more time．

I also like ears．You can start your journey（旅行）when you want to，and you don't need to get to a railway or a bus stop．Also you can carry many things with you in a car．But sometimes there are too many cars on the road．

The telephone rang and I picked up the receiver（听筒）．“Hello，” I said．“Hello．”said a voice（声音）．“Bill here，is Betty there?” “I’m sorry，” I said．“You have got the wrong number．”A few seconds later，the telephone rang again．Just as I expected（期望）it was Bill．“You've made a mistake again．” I explained．
