The fares aren¡¯t expensive and you can buy a ticket at the bus stoop. ²»¿ÉÒÔÓÃbuy fares e. g. Fuel fares are going up again. Step Six Reading aloud Step Eight To use the data to answer the questions (Activity 5) 1. Ask some of the students to write the answers after the example on the blackboard, while others finish it in their exercise books. 2. Check the answers and ensure they use ¡°so¡± to express the result. 1) The train takes about eight minutes, the taxi takes about 30 minutes, and the bus takes about 45 minutes so the quickest way is by train. 2) The bus fare is € 70, the plane fare is € 80, the train fare is € 120, so the cheapest way to get from London to Paris is by bus. 3) The ferry fare is HK$2, the taxi fare is HK$120, the bus fare is HK$11, so the cheapest way to get from Hong Kong to Kowloon is by ferry. 4) The train journey has three stars, the taxi journey has two stars, and the bus journey has one star, so the most comfortable way is by train. 5) The ferry journey has two stars, the taxi journey has one star, and the bus journey has one star too, so the most interesting journey is by ferry. 6) The bus journey has two stars, the plane journey has one star, the train journey has three stars, so the most interesting way is by train. 3. Have the students ask and answer the questions in pairs. Homework: 1. To write some sentences about local journeys they know in the same way with Activity 5 2. To finish Unit2, Module7, µãÖеä
