Task 1 Reading Read the dialogue about transportation. Bob: Hello, I’m sorry, but I am late. Can you help me?
Mark: Sure, no problem! How may I help you?
Bob: When is the next train to Ansonia?
Mark: I am not sure, but I think the next one leaves tomorrow at 8 pm.
Bob: What?! I can’t wait that long! What time is the next bus?
Mark: It should go by in about two hours. It leaves the bus station at about 5.30 pm.
Bob: Well, I don’t know. Isn’t there any other option?
Mark: You could take a taxi…
Bob: What’s faster, the bus or the taxi?
Mark: The taxi, of course! All you have to do is to call and ask for a taxi and it will come right away.
Bob: You are right, but which is the cheapest one?
Mark: The cheapest means of transportation is the subway.
Bob: When have you ever seen a subway here in Connecticut?

Bob: You’re absolutely right. Thanks for your help.
