4 Today many schoolchildren go to school by car but in our town there are also buses and trains. My friends and I prefer to travel to school by car because its faster and more comfortable. In my opinion in the future schoolchildren will go to school on foot because that will be better for the environment. Сегодня многие школьники ездят в школу на машине, но в нашем городе есть ещё автобусы и поезда. Мы с друзьями предпочитаем ездить в школу на машине, потому что это быстрее и более комфортабельно. По-моему, в будущем школьники будут ходить в школу пешком, потому что это будет лучше для окружающей среды.
