Hitch-hiking
Hitch-hiking was once a cheap and friendly way to travel but nowadays it is quite dangerous. You often hear stories of hitch-hikers who are attacked or murdered by drivers, or of drivers who are robbed by hitch-hikers. Because of this, hitch-hiking is not allowed in many countries.
Danny, 15, a schoolboy.
«I live in the country. I often hitch-hike into town to save money. I always get lifts from people I know but sometimes I have to wait quite a long time».
Paul, 20, a student.
«I’ve hitch-hiked for three years, I’ve been all over Europe. I enjoy it. You meet a lot of people and visit many interesting places».
Susan, 42, a housewife.
«I don’t like it. I think it’s dangerous. None of my children are allowed to do it. I prefer to buy them a train ticket than let them hitch-hike».
Kerry, 19, a nurse.
«I’ve hitch-hiked since I was sixteen. I don’t go alone. I go with my boy-friend or a girlfriend. My mum hates it but I’ve never had any bad experiences. I know how to look after myself».
Answer the questions:
Is hitch-hiking only dangerous for hitch-hikers?
Is hitch-hiking allowed in all countries?
Would you choose hitch-hiking as the way to travel? Give reasons.

Люди говорят и верят уже несколько столетий, что в озере живет чудовище.
На некоторых интересных подводных снимках 1975 года вы можете видеть голову и большое туловище.
Некоторые люди считают, что это всего лишь ил, который поднимается со дна озера, или ветки деревьев, которые плывут по воде.
И все же есть люди, которые не спускают глаз днем и ночью все лето, в надежде хоть краешком глаза увидеть Несси.
Чтобы подготовить собаку для специальных заданий, требуется много времени.
