Group 1:

In the past, people had to travel long distances on foot or by animal. It was dangerous and exhausting, and it could take ages to get to their destination. They had to suffer from unknown diseases, hunger, thirst, and wild animals along the way. But then, with the development of trains and cars, travelling became much easier and safer. People could enjoy nice food while travelling and even luxury travel for those who could afford it.

Group 2:

Sailing across the ocean was another means of travelling, but it was also risky and time-consuming. However, with the invention of airplanes, people could get to the opposite side of the planet in hours, making travelling much faster and more convenient. Air travel also allowed people to travel by air and see the world from a different perspective.

Group 3:

Travelling across the desert used to be a difficult and dangerous journey. But now, with modern technology and transportation, people can easily travel by car through the desert. Cars have made it possible to travel across the desert quickly and comfortably. Traveling across the desert is no longer a daunting task, but rather an enjoyable and exciting adventure.
