PW. Listen to the dialogues and act them out:

Dialogue 1
Isabella: How are you planning to get to England?
Gabriella: The cheapest way is by bus. They operate all over Europe.
Isabella: But, how can you get to England by bus? England is an island!
Gabriella: Oh, that’s not a problem. In France the bus goes on a ferry. It is a big boat which can carry buses, cars and people.
Isabella: How much is the bus then?
Gabriella: If you are 12 years old a single ticket is $52 and if you are older it is $148.
Isabella: Oh, that’s really cheap. And how long does it take you to get there?
Gabriella: I don’t know exactly. We have to find out.

Dialogue 2
Mehri: What’s the fastest way to get to England?
Tural: Oh, it is by plane, of course.
Mehri: How long does it take you to get to England from Azerbaijan?
Tural: It takes only five hours to get there.
Mehri: And how much is the plane ticket?
Tural: Oh, not so expensive, just 550 AZN (₼ 550) for a return ticket. But it also depends what season you are going there. Actually tickets are more expensive in the summer time.
Mehri: And what about the train?
Tural: I don’t think it’s a good idea. It will take a long time to get to England by train and it will be more expensive than the plane. Because you can’t get a train straight from Baku to London. But from Moscow you can take a train.
