Means of transport - Video for Listening Comprehension

Taxi! Taxi! What would we do without the car? He'd surely be phoning from his office! And she'd probably be in the bathroom!

They wouldn't have been able to go to the beach in their convertible. No need to ask the question, today the car has become essential.

It's always exciting buying your first car. It's also fun to drive fast, but that can be very costly! Washing the car is fun too.

Just until the car breaks down and you have to repair it. Nothing else to do but wait for the mechanic! Get your chequebook ready to pay for the repairs and the towing.

If you're rich, you can buy a sports car... Or even sponsor a racing team and take part in Grand Prix. Maybe you prefer two wheels, like a moped? Or a motorbike. Sometimes they've even got four wheels.

Do you want to buy a vintage car or travel in comfort and luxury in a limousine? You still risk being caught in traffic jams. Bumper to bumper. Traffic jams harm the environment. What pollution!

Finding a place to park can be difficult too. If you're illegally parked, you'll get clamped! Or a traffic warden will give you a parking ticket.

Public transport? There's a good idea! Get on a tram, for example. No more going round and round... No more vertigo!

There are many other types of vehicles, depending on the needs. Big trucks to deliver merchandise, tractors for agricultural work, combine harvesters to reap the wheat, electric cars for golfers, vehicles with caterpillar tracks adapted to all types of surfaces. Watch out behind you!

At any rate, the human heart doesn't pollute... but then you mustn't be in a hurry to get somewhere! And if you ever get lost one day, don't worry... All roads lead to Rome!
