在阿姆斯特丹市区停车费每小时5欧元，折合人民币近40元。因为阿姆斯特丹城区街道狭窄，还到处是桥。所以政府限制私家车进城，鼓励把车停在市区外，随后坐公交或街车到市中心。

Nowadays, there are many different kinds of ways to travel, such as bikes, trains, cars and planes.
The fastest way of travelling is by plane. But it’s the most expensive way to travel and the airport is far from the city centre. Travelling by train is slower than by plane, but we can enjoy the beautiful scenery during the travel. Travelling by car is convenient because the drivers can make their own timetable, and they can stop anywhere they want. But the car is expensive and it can cause pollution. There are usually too many cars on the road and it’s not safe sometimes. Riding bikes is tiring and the slowest, but it’s the cheapest way. It can make us healthy and it is good for the environment.
In order to protect our environment, ride bikes as much as possible when you go out.
ways of travelling good points bad points
plane the most expensive way to travel and the airport is far from the city centre. the fastest
train can enjoy the beautiful scenery during the travel slower than by plane
car convenient expensive; cause pollution
bike the cheapest way; make us healthy and is good for the environment. tiring and the slowest
Possible answer:
You can go from London to Paris by coach, plane or train. Travelling by plane is the fastest but also the most expensive way to get there. It’s also less interesting than by coach or by train. The coach is cheaper than the train and the plane, but it’s also slower and uncomfortable. The train is the second most expensive and second fastest way to travel. Travelling by train is the most interesting way because you can look out of the window at the countryside.
