Part 3Topic 10 - Travel & TransportEasy-Intermediate

How important do you think it is to use public transportation?

Bạn nghĩ việc sử dụng phương tiện giao thông công cộng quan trọng đến mức nào?

[POINT]Point

Public transportation is very important because it supports mobility for people who cannot or do not want to drive.

[EXPLAIN]Explain

It improves social access to jobs, education and services while also contributing to traffic reduction and lower emissions.

[EXAMPLE]Example

A reliable bus or metro can allow students, older adults and lower-income workers to travel independently.

[EXTEND]Extend

Strong public transport therefore benefits both individual opportunity and the wider city, even for people who sometimes use cars.

Part 3Topic 10 - Travel & TransportEasy-Intermediate

Do you think city governments should discourage use of privately driven cars within city limits?

Bạn có nghĩ rằng chính quyền thành phố nên hạn chế việc sử dụng xe cá nhân trong phạm vi thành phố không?

[POINT]Point

City governments should discourage unnecessary private car use in crowded areas, but not ban cars completely.

[EXPLAIN]Explain

Parking restrictions and limits on city-centre access can reduce congestion if good public alternatives exist.

[EXAMPLE]Example

Residents with disabilities or jobs requiring vehicles may still need exemptions.

[EXTEND]Extend

The policy should strike a balance between cleaner streets and practical mobility, because restrictions that ignore people's real needs can be unfair and unpopular.

Part 3Topic 10 - Travel & TransportEasy-Intermediate

How could public transportation in your city be improved?

Hệ thống giao thông công cộng tại thành phố của bạn có thể được cải thiện như thế nào?

[POINT]Point

My city's public transport could improve through more frequent services, wider routes and simpler transfers.

[EXPLAIN]Explain

Authorities should step up bus frequency during busy periods and improve route coverage in outer districts.

[EXAMPLE]Example

An integrated ticket that works across buses and metro lines would make multi-stage journeys easier.

[EXTEND]Extend

Reliability matters as much as expansion, because passengers will not change habits if services look good on paper but regularly arrive late.

Part 3Topic 10 - Travel & TransportEasy-Intermediate

Do you think that we ought to be obligated to drive electrical and solar powered vehicles?

Bạn có nghĩ rằng chúng ta nên bắt buộc phải sử dụng xe điện và xe chạy bằng năng lượng mặt trời không?

[POINT]Point

I support cleaner vehicles, but I would not require everyone to use electric or solar-powered cars immediately.

[EXPLAIN]Explain

A strict policy mandate can be unfair if technology readiness, prices and charging access differ greatly between regions.

[EXAMPLE]Example

Rural drivers may not have reliable charging even if electric cars work well in major cities.

[EXTEND]Extend

Governments should set gradual standards, build infrastructure and offer incentives before making clean-vehicle requirements compulsory.

Part 3Topic 10 - Travel & TransportEasy-Intermediate

Is the public transportation in your city efficient?

Hệ thống giao thông công cộng ở thành phố bạn có hiệu quả không?

[POINT]Point

I would describe public transport in my city as moderately efficient rather than excellent.

[EXPLAIN]Explain

Service efficiency is reasonable on major routes, but waiting time and network reliability can be weaker outside central areas.

[EXAMPLE]Example

A commuter may have frequent buses downtown but wait much longer in an outer district.

[EXTEND]Extend

The system could become more efficient by matching service frequency more closely with passenger demand and improving connections between routes.
