Talk about one means of transportation that you often use.

[Maybo]

I have chosen a IELTS practice speaking topic and written a paragraph about it. Please check it and correct any mistakes.

Topic: Talk about one means of transportation that you often use. You should mention:

• Where you usually go by that means of transportation
• What the advantages of that method of travelling are
• What the disadvantages are

And say if you think you will use that means of transport more or less often in the future, and why


Answer:

I often take buses to everywhere, especially to shopping malls, because bus terminus is usually set there. The advantage of using this mean of transportation is that it's easy to access. Bus stops are everywhere so most of the time, I only take one ride to get to the destination and don't need to transfer to other transportation. The disadvantage is that it could be time-consuming when a bus route contains many stops. I once took two hours to get to the destination, while if I use a train, only thirty minutes are needed. However, in the future, I'll take more buses because it's very convenient. There're some bus stops near my apartment so I won't be affect by the weather when I go to the stop. I hate walking in the boiling sun or heavy rain.

It's good!

For info, "in the boiling sun" is absolutely fine in BrE. Had the original said "broiling", I would have corrected it to "boiling". Just another BrE/AmE difference, I guess!

I"m quite happy with in the boiling sun. (American English.)
