   People choose public transport for various reasons, including convenience, cost-effectiveness, and environmental concerns. For example, in busy cities like Taipei, public transport systems like the MRT offer a faster way to navigate traffic congestion and reach destinations efficiently. Additionally, public transport reduces the need for individual vehicles, leading to decreased air pollution and congestion on roads. Moreover, for commuters, public transport allows for multitasking, such as reading or catching up on work, during travel time, enhancing productivity and relaxation.

   為什麼越來越多的人喜歡乘坐飛機旅行？

   越來越多的人選擇航空旅行，因為它快捷、方便、經濟實惠。例如，與其他交通方式相比，從臺北飛往東京可大大縮短旅行時間，是時間緊迫的旅行或長途旅行的理想選擇。此外，隨著廉價航空公司的出現，航空旅行變得更加經濟實惠，吸引了更多乘客。此外，飛行還提供國際探索和文化體驗的機會，讓旅客能夠快速、舒適地到達遙遠的目的地。

   More people opt for air travel due to its speed, accessibility, and affordability. For instance, flying from Taipei to Tokyo significantly reduces travel time compared to other modes of transportation, making it ideal for time-sensitive trips or long-distance travel. Additionally, with the advent of budget airlines, air travel has become more affordable, attracting a broader range of passengers. Moreover, flying offers opportunities for international exploration and cultural experiences, allowing travelers to reach distant destinations quickly and comfortably.

3. Do you think offering free public transport will solve traffic problems in the city?
   你認為提供免費公共交通服務能否解決城市交通問題？

   點此看中文

   提供免費公共交通可以在一定程度上緩解交通擁堵，但這並不是一個全面的解決方案。雖然免費公共交通可以激勵更多的人使用公共汽車、火車和有軌電車，但也可能會導致過度擁擠，並給交通管理部門帶來運營方面的挑戰。此外，降低或取消票價需要大量資金，從長遠來看可能難以為繼。相反，改善基礎設施、推廣替代交通方式、實施擁堵收費等綜合措施，可能會為解決城市交通問題提供更有效的解決方案。

   Offering free public transport may alleviate traffic congestion to some extent, but it’s not a comprehensive solution. While free public transport can incentivize more people to use buses, trains, and trams, it may also lead to overcrowding and operational challenges for transit authorities. Moreover, reducing or eliminating fares requires significant funding, which may not be sustainable in the long run. Instead, a combination of measures, such as improving infrastructure, promoting alternative modes of transport, and implementing congestion pricing, may offer more effective solutions to address traffic problems in cities.

4. What are the advantages of travelling by public transport?
   乘坐公共交通工具有什麼好處？

   乘坐公共交通工具出行有很多好處，包括節約成本、減少對環境的影響以及更加方便。例如，在臺北，使用「悠遊卡」乘坐捷運、公車和YouBike 可為經常出行的乘客提供票價折扣，使公共交通成為比駕車更經濟實惠的選擇。此外，公共交通還能減少碳排放和空氣污染，為更清潔的空氣和更健康的環境做出貢獻。此外，公共交通有指定的路線和時間表，為上班族和遊客提供可預測、無壓力的出行體驗。

Additionally, public transport reduces carbon emissions and air pollution, contributing to cleaner air and a healthier environment. Moreover, with designated routes and schedules, public transport provides a predictable and stress-free travel experience for commuters and tourists alike.
