Conversation

(Lucy tells her classmate Paul about a news article on train stations.)

Lucy: Have you read the news this morning? I read an article about some train stations
becoming unsafe. This worries me a bit.
Paul: I read something similar. Some passengers actually get robbed or get hurt inside train
stations. It is worrying. Train stations should provide better safety measures to safeguard
passengers.
Lucy: Exactly. Many people go in and out of train stations every single day, and they should
always feel safe.

Paul: Well, there are staff who check people’s bags and pockets in most train stations.

detectors in every entrance.

Paul: Right. That’s a good way for the staff to see everyone who goes in and out of the station.

travel.
