have there pros 1 and cons 2. Would you agree?

Simon: So, what's your favorite form of transportation, of those three?


Friend: I would have to say the automobile 3.

Friend: That would be mainly freedom. Freedom of movement. Freedom of stop. Freedom to go. Freedom to, yeah, freedom basically.


Simon: OK, uh, what about a train? What are the advantages of being of a train?


Friend: Ah, I would say, good views of the countryside. You can move around on a train. You're not stuck in a car. You can go for a cigarette. You can get something to drink. You can go to the bathroom, which you cannot do in a car.


Simon: OK, and let's talk about the airplane. Why, what are some of the advantages of flying?

Friend: There's nothing I can say bad about a train, except, yeah! Train's good.


Simon: OK!


Friend: Price!


Simon: Yeah, price, in many countries train travel is expensive. Uh, we are traveling in Japan, so the train is very fast and efficient, however, it is expensive, and another thing is, you're confined by schedule and things like that. How about the disadvantages of a car?

Simon: And how about the plane?
