(Paragraph 1)

Centuries ago, travelling from one country to another was unheard-of. Walking was the only way to move from one place to another. Instead of roads and streets, only pavements and walkways existed.

(Paragraph 2)

As the population increased, it was in evitable that residences were located further from one another. To prevent the rice of places that were isolated from the rest of the country, it was necessary to find ways of moving around easily.

(Paragraph 3)

Animals were first used to improve the mode of transportation. Initially, people began travelling by bullock carts. It was a faster way of getting from one place to another and they could also carry along heavier items than they could before. Besides bullock carts, horse-drawn carriages, a common form of transportation for wealthy people, were also used. Carriages were often well-decorated and it was uncommon to see royalty in these carriages.

(Paragraph 4)

A milestone in the transportation industry came when cars were invented. Initially the price of owning a car is limited ownership to only a select few. However, as it became more cost-effective to manufacture a car, ownership increased. More roads were built. Newer roads were much wider. Pavements became narrower. As improvements were made to the original design, a wide variety of cars were manufactured. Today, it is even possible to use a vehicle to do work such as a bulldozer and a crane. It is also possible to live in a vehicle like the caravan. In addition, the number of passengers allowed in a vehicle is not just limited to a handful. Huge buses, especially double-decker ones, are common place today. Hundreds of people can be ferried in the buses

each time.

(Paragraph 5)

Can you image what life be like if the transportation industry did not progress. Taking only a few minutes to get from one place to another will be inconceivable. Travelling from one place to another even within the country will be a challenge. Travelling to other countries will be extremely time consuming. Sea travel will probably have to be the main mode of transportation for long distance then.
