Subject: Upcoming Trip to Banff
To: Colleen Workman
From: Sid

Hello Colleen:

I am so excited about our upcoming trip to Banff! I know that you have never been there, so I am sure that it will be a (1. normal / special / unusual / trip) experience for you. I have come up with some alternatives regarding (2. Banff trip / transport / drive / moving) for you to have a look at.

I kind of wish we could rent a car. Unfortunately, since the car rental companies have (3. minimum / strictly / specify / good) age restrictions, we don’t qualify. That should be okay though, because there are other options that should (4. be / transport / work / play) for us.

One possibility is to take the bus. There are several bus (5. transports / companies / tourists / business) that go from Calgary to Banff several times a day. As you can see from the chart, that would be the cheapest option. (6. Luckily / However / On the one hand / Opposite), it is also the slowest option.

We could also take my motorcycle, but then if we wanted to take anyone else along on the trip, that would be impossible. Too bad, because we would be there in (7. fast / soon / quickly / no) time.

The third option I’ve given in the chart would be to take a taxi. Although it would probably end up costing a lot, we could invite (8. one / two / three / no) more people and split the cost.

Think about it and get back to me, okay?
Sid
