Câu trả lời mẫu (Sample Answer)

1. Do you often use public transport? (Bạn có sử dụng phương tiện giao thông công cộng không)

You know, due to the fact that mass transit in Vietnam is pretty subpar in terms of quality, I tend to avoid using it. I have only travelled by bus around 5 times so far in my life because it’s common for them to be around 10 minutes late, sometimes even more, so in my opinion, they are pretty unreliable. Hopefully, the government would raise the quality standards of public transport; otherwise, I can’t see myself getting on a bus anytime soon.

• mass transit (n) = public transport
• subpar (adj) = below-average
• unreliable = not able to be trusted
• I can’t see myself (doing something) = I won’t (do something)

2. Should people use more public transport? Why? (Mọi người có nên sử dụng phương tiện công cộng nhiều hơn không? Tại sao?)

In my opinion, it’s crucial that citizens shift from using private vehicles to public transportation primarily because of the ever-increasing population rate. Apparently, the amount of exhaust emitted from cars and motorbikes contributes significantly to global warming and air pollution; therefore, encouraging the use of mass transit can help cut the level of greenhouse gases, reducing potential health problems.

3. Do you think people in your country prefer public transport? (Bạn có nghĩ người dân ở quốc gia của bạn thích sử dụng phương tiện công cộng?)

I think it depends on the reason. There are some who are in favor of public transit services and they commute by buses on a regular basis because the bus route is accessible and suitable for their daily travel needs. However, there are those who strongly oppose using mass transit due to a number of reasons, from its poor standards to security to inconvenience.

• bus route (n): tuyến xe buýt
