II. Read the Text.
Robert Dillon is in England on business. He has a meeting in Paris tomorrow evening. He must decide how to travel from London to Paris: by train or by plane.
It takes about three hours to get from Central London to Central Paris. He can get there by train and by plane. The plane is faster. It takes about two and three-quater hours. But you spend time checking in, boarding, clearing customs, and so on. The train through the tunnel takes about three hours twenty minutes. But you are on the train all the time, so it is easier to work, for example.
As for the price, the train is a little cheaper. But it depends on the time of day.
Mr. Dillon is quite tall and he thinks there is more leg-room on the train. It is definitely more comfortable. That is why he thinks, he will take the train. He prefers it. He finds it more comfortable, a bit cheaper, and usually on time.
