     Modern life is impossible without traveling. The fastest way of traveling is by plane. With a modern airline

you can travel in one day to places which it took a month or more to get to a hundred years ago.

     Traveling by train is slower than plane, but it has its advantages (优势). You can see the country you are

traveling through. Modern trains have comfortable seats and dining-cars. They make even the longest journey

enjoyable.

many other countries and different places. And traveling by sea is a very pleasant way to spend a holiday.

     Many people like to travel by car. You can make your own timetable. You can travel tree or four hundred
