4.which of the two projects do you think will be completed first? Why?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of carrying out these
projects?
I believe that the bridge will be completed first, since it is easier, less
expensive and faster to design a bridge over water than a tunnel in water.
A disadvantage of carrying out this type of work is that they generate
expenses, time, etc. the advantage would be that they allow us to save time,
unite places and benefit people.
5.- would you prefer to travel in the Swiss tunnel or on the Chinese
bridge project? why?
I prefer to travel by bridge, in order to be able to observe the landscape
around me, in this case the sea.
