Read the text «Public transport» A public transport is a transport of passengers. For going whenever they like passengers don't need to have their own cars or other types of vehicles. The development of this kind of transportation gave people the possibility to travel wuthout limitation. Passengers have a possibility to choose the most convenient type of each case. The main types of transportation are trains, buses, trams and trolleybuses. Buses drive on roads, like cars do. Trams were used first in the 1860s and were pulled by horses. Now all the trams are electric and run on a cable line. Trolleybuses are similar to buses and trams — they drive on the road, but use the electricity from the wires above these roads. Trains run on a special track and in some countrie are very fast. Trolleybuses and trums are ususally used for city transportation, buses and trains — for intercity communication. Many people who don't have cars or other vehicles use buses, trains or even planes to get the places near their houses or far away. Using public transport provides many advantages. It's cheaper than private transportation. Also, it's good for environment. More people using the same vehicle, fewer cars on the road, therefore cars make less pollution. Using public transport people often need a card or a ticket to be able to get on. Tickets are bought at the time of the ride or in advance. They may be valid for a single trip or within certain area for a period of time, The price of the ticket (fare) is based on the distanxe and on travel class.
