Talking About Public Transport

Lisa: Hi Mark. How do you usually get to work?

Mark: Hi Lisa. I usually take the bus. It's cheap and fast. What about you?

Lisa: I take the metro. It's very easy and quick, especially in the morning.

Mark: Oh, I never take the metro. Is it very busy?

Lisa: Yes, it is very busy in the morning and evening. But it's faster than the bus.

Mark: That's true. The bus sometimes stops a long time in traffic. How much does a metro ticket cost?

Lisa: One ticket costs $1.50. But I have a monthly card, so I pay less.

Mark: That's a good idea. Maybe I need a monthly card too. Do you like public transport?

Lisa: Yes, I do. It's good for the city and I don't need a car.

Mark: That's right. I think I'll try the metro next week. Can you show me how to use it?

Lisa: Of course. It's easy. I'll help you buy a ticket and show you the map.

Mark: Thanks, Lisa. You're a great friend.

Lisa: No problem, Mark. See you on the metro.
