AQUÍ EMPIEZA… SOLO LEES DECORRIDO TU PARTE, LO QUE ESTAN EN GUIONES

TAXI – CAB

- FIORELLA: Hi Brandon, Hi David. What do you think of traveling by taxi?

- DAVID: Hi everyone, Traveling by taxi is very comfortable and you can visit many places, but the
bad thing is that they charge you a very expensive ticket.
- BRANDON: Hi David, Hi Fiorella, first the taxi, in my opinion it is a good means of transport,
perhaps a little expensive because it would take the girls to the specific place where they wanted
to go; therefore, if they don’t want to spend a lot but want to go around the city, so the taxi
wouldn’t be a good option.
- FIORELLA: I agree with you, because I think it’s not advisable to travel in it if you don’t have
much money.

TREN [TRAIN]

- DAVID: But, what do you think about traveling by train?

- FIORELLA: Traveling by train is a bit complicated, but it’s cheap, the problem is that if you want
to visit places, you will not be able to see them calmly [camly], because it travels very fast.
- BRANDON: The electric train is another excellent option, because if the girls want to know that
specific tourist place, then they would save time and money.
- DAVID: I definitely agree with you, also I think that if the train is full it would be a very
uncomfortable trip.

BICICLETA [BICYCLE]

- Brandon: OK, Uhmm what do you think about traveling by bike?

- DAVID: Traveling by bike can be fun if you go with friends and there isn’t much traffic, but it can
be bad if there is a lot of traffic or if you want to visit faraway places.
- FIORELLA: I agree with you, because you need a lot of energy to handle the bike, and it can be
worse if you don't know how to handle it.
- BRANDON: Totally, I agree with you, because they can find a company that rents bikes, they
have different stops depending on where they go and they charge you for the time they use the
bike. So, it isn’t very expensive.

BUS

- DAVID: So, what do you think of traveling by bus?

- FIORELLA: Traveling by bus is fun because you can take your time seeing places while you go by
bus, it’s also very cheap, the bad thing is that if you want to get to a place quickly, it will take
time because it makes stops, and sometimes it’s full.
- BRANDON: Public transport for me will always be a good option, because as the phrase says
"Asking you get to Rome", and much more if you have technology at your fingertips. Therefore, I
could recommend public transport to girls.
- DAVID: It’s true, I agree with you, but so far I think it’s the most reliable [rulaibol] method.

CAMINANDO

- FIORELLA: ok that's good, but then what do you think as an option to travel on foot?
- DAVID: Traveling on foot can be fun at first, but later you can get very tired and you can get lost
if you don't know the streets or places.
- BRANDON: In my opinión,Travelling on foot is also a good option, as in these times we have the
Google Maps app, hardly anyone can get lost, but it would be very dangerous to walk through
places we don't know and the places they want to go could be very far.
- FIORELLA: I definitely agree with you, because it’s very dangerous to travel like this, worse if you
are alone, or if you get lost, also you will never arrive on time if they are long distances and you
are walking.
DAVID: SO, FIORELLA AND BRANDON, WHAT DO YOU THINK IS THE BEST OPTION?

- FIORELLA: I think that traveling by bus would be the best option.

- BRANDON: I agree With you Fiorella, travelling by bus its the best option, too.
- DAVID: I agree with you, because I think it would be the cheapest and easiest way to get there,
you can also see different places and get to where you want to go without problems, taking the
correct route or the correct bus.
- FIORELLA: Exactly, then we choose the option of traveling by bus?
- DAVID: Yes, definitely.

EN ESPAÑOL:

TAXI

- ¿Qué opinas de viajar en taxi?

- Viajar en taxi es muy cómodo y puedes visitar muchos lugares, pero lo malo es que te
cobran un billete muy caro.
- Estoy de acuerdo contigo, porque creo que no es recomendable viajar en él si no tienes
mucho dinero.

TREN [TREN]

- Pero, ¿qué te parece viajar en tren?

- Viajar en tren es un poco complicado, pero es barato, el problema es que si quieres
visitar lugares, no los vas a poder ver con calma, porque se viaja muy rápido.
- Definitivamente estoy de acuerdo contigo, además creo que si el tren está lleno sería
un viaje muy incómodo.

BICICLETA [BICICLETA]

- Ok, ammm ¿Qué te parece viajar en bicicleta?

- Viajar en bicicleta puede ser divertido si vas con amigos y no hay mucho tráfico, pero
puede ser malo si hay mucho tráfico o si quieres visitar lugares lejanos.
- Estoy de acuerdo contigo, porque necesitas mucha energía para manejar la bicicleta, y
puede ser peor si no sabes cómo manejarla.

AUTOBÚS

- Entonces, ¿qué piensas de viajar en autobús?

- Viajar en bus es divertido porque puedes tomarte tu tiempo viendo lugares mientras
vas en bus, ademas es muy barato, lo malo es que si quieres llegar rapido a un lugar se
demora porque hace paradas, y a veces está lleno.
- Es cierto, estoy de acuerdo contigo, pero hasta ahora creo que es el método más
confiable.

CAMINANDO

- ok esta bien, pero entonces que te parece como opcion para viajar a pie?
- Viajar a pie puede ser divertido al principio, pero luego te puedes cansar mucho y
puedes perderte si no conoces las calles o los lugares.
 - Definitivamente estoy de acuerdo contigo, porque es muy peligroso viajar así, peor si
vas solo, o si te pierdes, además nunca llegarás a tiempo si son largas distancias y vas
caminando.

ENTONCES, ¿CUÁL CREES QUE ES LA MEJOR OPCIÓN?

- Creo que viajar en autobús sería la mejor opción.

- Estoy de acuerdo contigo, porque creo que sería la forma más barata y fácil de llegar,
además puedes ver diferentes lugares y llegar a donde quieras sin problemas, tomando
la ruta correcta o el autobús correcto.
- Exacto, ¿entonces elegimos la opción de viajar en bus?
- Sí, definitivamente.
