In Russia there is lot of different kinds of public transport. Bus is the cheapest public transport. That is why bus is one of the most popular public transport in Russia.
I think that taxi is more comfortable transport than bus. That is why I prefer taxi.
But if you want to travel the best option for you is the train. Train is not so comfortable and fast as plane but it is cheaper. Busy people prefer plane because they haven’t got free time. But the plane can be delayed and you will be late for a conversation.
So I prefer plane and taxi because they are faster and more comfortable and I can afford it because I think that price is not the main.

The house in which I live is very beautiful and bright in it, and there is a special, indescribable atmosphere around it. The walls in the parents' bedroom are decorated with photographs, on which we are still running around the green meadow with my sister and go to the first class. In the kitchen and in the hall everything is buried in flowers, they are everywhere and on the windowsills and on the stands along the walls and soaring in the air, holding on to thin ropes, create an atmosphere of tranquility and coziness. I really love my house. In the house I have my own room, where I spend a lot of time. I do my homework, play computer games, spend time with friends. On the wall of my room hangs a large map of the globe, and on the shelves of the closet with even, slender rows are models of military aircraft. And from the windows of my room you can see a small lake in which my sister and I bathe in the summer. There are so many books in her sister's room, she likes to read. Entering her room, you come across as if into another world, a world of fairy tales and adventures.
Переклад:
Дом, в котором я живу, очень красивый и светлый в нем спокойно и вокруг царит особенная непередаваемая атмосфера. Стены в спальне родителей украшены фотографиями, на которых мы сестрой еще карапузами бегаем по зеленой полянке и идем в первый класс. На кухне и в зале все утопает в цветах, они везде и на подоконниках и на подставках вдоль стен и парят в воздухе, держась за тоненькие веревки, создают атмосферу спокойствия и уюта. Я очень люблю свой дом. В доме у меня есть своя комната, где я провожу очень много времени. Делаю уроки, играю в игры на компьютере, провожу время с друзьями. На стене моей комнаты висит большая карта земного шара, а на полках шкафа ровными стройными рядами стоят модели военных самолетов. А еще из окон моей комнаты видно небольшое озеро, в котором мы с сестрой купаемся летом. В комнате сестры очень много книг, она любит читать. Заходя в ее комнату, попадаешь как будто в другой мир, мир сказок и приключений.
