M:How do you do?
W:How do you do! What can I do for you?
M:Well, I’ve just got off an international flight, and I’m not sure which mode of transport I should make use of on my trip. So I need some advice.
W:Go on, please.
M:I’m planning to travel to some famous places—Beijing, Xi’an and Guilin in China. Which mode of transport is the best for me?
W:Well, that depends on how much time and money you’re going to spend on your trip.
M:I see. I’m traveling at my expense, so I want to save both time and money spent on my way.
W:Oh, I know what you mean. Now that you are in Beijing, you should visit the Great Wall, the Summer Palace, the Imperial Palace and the Tian’an men Square as well. During your trip in Beijing, make use of the underground which is faster and cheaper.
M:How can I get to Xi’an? You know I have to go back to Beijing after I’ve finished all my traveling.
W:It’s much cheaper to take a train to Xi’an than to fly. In my opinion, you should take the train to Xi’an and then to Guilin. You will not only save money but also have a close beautiful scenic trip. After that, fly directly from Guilin to Beijing.
M:Good! That’s a really good idea. I’ll do as you have suggested. Thanks. Thanks a lot.
W:Not at all! Good-bye!
M:Good-bye!
