Idea 1
Cars
Model Answer
Cars are definitely the most popular form of vehicle in my country. Almost every family owns at least one car, and they're really convenient for long trips or family outings. Public transport isn't always reliable or comfortable, so people prefer to drive. Also, having a car is seen as a sign of success, so many people save up to buy one.
Idea 2
Bikes
Model Answer
Bikes are also quite popular, especially in cities where there are bike lanes and good cycling paths. They're cheap and good for the environment, and a lot of students use them to get to school or university. For short trips, bikes are really convenient and you don't have to worry about traffic jams.
Idea 3
Motorcycles
Model Answer
Motorcycles are very common in smaller towns and rural areas. They're cheaper than cars and much easier to park. A lot of young people like them because they're fun and give a sense of freedom. Also, motorcycles are great for getting through heavy traffic, which is a big advantage in busy cities.
