117. What public transport is available in your hometown? ( 5 - 8 )
There is a wide variety of transportation available in my hometown. For instance, busses follow routes all over the city. Secondly, taxis are usually available whenever you are in need of one. Of course they are more expensive than the busses, but then they are much faster and more comfortable. Lastly, there are the minibus taxis, but they are not to be recommended as they are known to drive recklessly.

118. What type of public transport do you prefer? ( 5 - 8 )
That’s an interesting question, which I must admit, I haven’t given much thought yet. Allow me to explain myself/my personal views by shortly mentioning the following points: Firstly, I would say that I prefer to travel by bus. It is convenient, comfortable, and safe. For example, there is a bus stop right in front of my hostel, from where I can travel to any destination in the city. Some people might not think that it is all that comfortable, but I don’t mind standing all the way. I don’t think anybody will disagree that it is a very safe way of traveling. I still have to see a bus involved in a serious accident in Shenyang.

119. What can be done by the authorities to encourage people to use public transport more? ( 5 - 8 )
Firstly, I believe the tariffs can be lowered. For example, if people got a discount if they bought a monthly ticket, they would use the busses more. Secondly, an advertisement campaign could be launched. To be more specific, the newspapers and TV could be used to show the public the advantages of using public transport. Lastly, I believe that the service provided to the public can be improved. For example, in the rush hours all busses should have conductors. It is a well-known fact that woman, children, and the elderly are at risk of injuries if a bus does not have a conductor in the rush hours.

120. What are the main causes of road accidents in China? ( 5 - 8 )
There are several reasons. Allow me to explain myself by shortly mentioning the following reasons. Firstly, drunken driving is a great cause of road accidents. For example, a driver cannot judge distances as well when he is drunk as when he is sober. Secondly, speeding often results in accidents. For example, a driver cannot stop his vehicle suddenly when he is speeding. Lastly, bad road conditions cause many accidents. For example, a sharp curve in the road is a hazard at night, and might cause a vehicle to leave the road and overturn.

121. Do you think the government is doing enough to prevent road accidents in China? ( 5 - 8 )
One of the aspects I could tell you about regarding this topic is that the government and local authorities could spend more money to improve the condition of our roads and highways. For example, we still too often find potholes in our roads. These cause accidents as drivers try to avoid the potholes while driving. In addition, the government could place more advertisements on TV and in the newspapers, and in that way make the country’s drivers more aware of the dangers.
