问题  
W: Hi, nice to see you again! I heard you’ve traveled a lot recently.
M: Yeah, that’s right. Like many people, I like to travel and there are many forms of transportation for us to choose.
W: You are right. Many forms of transportation. We have different choices to make. Sometimes I even feel it is too difficult for me to choose one.
M: The main three that I want to talk about now are by car, by train and by airplane.
W: They are indeed the most common ones.
M: Now each of these forms of transportation has pros and cons (利弊) . Would you agree?
W: Indeed, I would.
M: So, what’s your favorite form of transportation?
W: I would have to say the automobile (汽车).
M: Urn, well, tell me some of the pros of traveling by car.
W: That would be mainly freedom. Freedom of movement. Freedom of stop. Freedom to go.
M: OK. Uh, what about a train? What are the advantages of a train?
W: Ah, I would say good views of the countryside. You can move around on a train.
M: That is a point! 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.
W: Absolutely! I think you’ve got the same feelings as me.
M: OK, and let’s talk about the airplane. What are some of the advantages of flying?
W: Well, let me see. Speed.
M: That’s it?
W: That’s all I can say about that speed.
M: OK. Uh, let’s talk about the disadvantages, the cons. So what are some things that a train has that is not that great?
W: There’s nothing I can say bad about a train! Trains are good.
M: Really? Do you think trains are so perfect? Nothing you can think of about their disadvantages?
W: Price!
M: Yeah, price. In many countries train travel is expensive.
W: Yes, trains are very fast and efficient in most countries, especially bullet trains (动车). However, they are expensive, and another thing is, you’re confined by schedules (时刻表) and things like that.
M: How about the disadvantages of a car?
W: Ah, pollution, accidents and costs. Yeah, cars can be expensive too. Think about how much gas it takes.
M: Yes, we do spend a lot on cars, don’t we? And how about the plane?
W: The disadvantages of a plane? It is a bit dangerous. After all, we are all high up in the air.
M: Oh, yeah. Also, I could sort of say the high cost, and being confined to (受限于) a small space.
W: Yeah, that’s it.
M: Nice talking with you. I do enjoy the conversation today.
W: Me too.
