There are four people in my family. We all like traveling(旅游). This summer we plan to go to Tibet on vacation. But we can’t decide how to get there, because we don’t agree with each other about the question. My father wants to go by plane(飞机). But my mother, my brother and I don’t agree. We don’t think taking a plane is safe, although it’s fast. My mother and I want to go by train. But my father and my brother think it’s too slow(慢的). I say to them, “Why not? A train isn’t fast, but it’s safe and cheap, and we can also enjoy many interesting things on the way.” My brother thinks it’s good to go by car. He says, “Tibet isn’t too far from our city. If we leave at six in the morning in our car, we can arrive by six in the evening.” But my parents and I think it’ll cost(花费) too much. And there may be lots of cars on the way. Can you give us a piece of good advice?
