1. Which form of vehicle is more popular in your country, bikes, cars, or motorcycles?
In Vietnam, motorcycles are the most popular form of transportation by a significant margin. They’re ubiquitous on the streets, weaving through traffic with agility and speed. Motorcycles offer a convenient and affordable way to navigate the bustling streets of Vietnamese cities and towns, making them the preferred choice for millions of commuters and families alike.
- to navigate (V) /ˈnæv.ɪ.ɡeɪt/: to plan and direct the course of a vehicle or vessel – tìm đường, xác định phương hướng
- a commuter (N) /kəˈmjuː.t̬ɚ/: a person who regularly travels from home to work, often over a long distance
2. Why do people prefer to travel by car?
I think people often prefer to travel by car for the convenience, comfort, and flexibility it offers. With a car, you can avoid crowded public transportation, customize your route, and travel on your own schedule, which makes it a popular choice for commuters and families alike.
- a route (N) /ruːt/: a way or course taken in getting from a starting point to a destination – đường đi, lối đi
3. Do you think air pollution comes mostly from mobile vehicles?
Well, mobile vehicles certainly play a significant role in air pollution. Emissions from cars, trucks, and motorcycles contribute to air pollution, particularly in urban areas with heavy traffic congestion. However, other sources such as industrial activities, power plants, and agriculture also play a part in air pollution.
- emissions (N) /ɪˈmɪʃ.ən/: gases released into the air, especially as a result of burning fossil fuels – khí thải
4. Do you think people need to change the way of transportation drastically to protect the environment?
With the growing concerns about climate change and environmental degradation, there’s certainly a need to rethink our transportation habits. Encouraging the use of public transportation, promoting carpooling and ridesharing, investing in alternative fuel vehicles, and expanding biking and walking infrastructure are just a few ways we can reduce our carbon footprint and protect the environment.
- degradation (N) /ˌdeɡ.rəˈdeɪ.ʃən/: the process of deteriorating or being degraded – sự xuống cấp, giảm chất lượng
- carpooling (N) /ˈkɑːrˌpuː.lɪŋ/: the practice of sharing a car journey with others, typically to travel to work – đi chung xe

- carbon footprint (N) /ˈkɑːr.bən ˈfʊt.prɪnt/: the total amount of greenhouse gasses produced directly and indirectly by human activities
5. How are the transportation systems in urban areas and rural areas different?
They’re distinct from each other in several ways. In urban areas, transportation systems are often more developed and diverse, with options like buses, subways, trains, and bike-sharing programs to accommodate the large population and alleviate traffic congestion. In rural areas, however, transportation options may be more limited, with fewer public transit options and greater reliance on personal vehicles due to longer distances between destinations.
- alleviate (V) /əˈliː.vi.eɪt/: to make (suffering, deficiency, or a problem) less severe – giảm
- congestion (N) /kənˈdʒes.tʃən/: the state of being overcrowded or blocked with traffic – ùn tắc
