There are many different ways to go from one place to another

Form of Travelling (or Transportation)	About Transportation
	A car is used to travel on land. Although you can travel in a car long distances, it takes longer than some other forms of transportation.
	A plane is used for long distances. It may be used across land or water.
	Boats were used many years ago for long distances; however, they take much longer than planes. Cruise ships are a common form of travelling in the USA.
	Trains are used when travelling shorter land distances (across a state). Sometimes they are cheaper than driving a car.
	Buses are used to transport a group of people at one time (a large group of people going to a big city or to school).
