Anna vient à vélo 1.

Nadia vient en voiture 2.

Caroline vient en bus 3.

1 vélo :

Anna vient à vélo (Anna is coming by bicycle). We often use à to refer to the mode of transport used: je viens à moto (I'm coming by motorcycle); nous venons à pied (we're coming on foot), etc.

1 métro :

Anne is not taking the métro (underground) here. Example: Nicolas rentre en métro (Nicolas takes the metro home).

1 bordeaux :

Un verre de bordeaux (a glass of burgundy) is always an excellent choice, but it's not the correct option here. Bordeaux is a region in the west of France, famous for its wine production. Le bordeaux means “Bordeaux wine”.

2 voiture :

Nadia vient en voiture (Nadia is coming by car). We use venir + en when referring to vehicles that we can enter, e.g. la voiture (car), le train (train), le métro (the underground). Example: elle vient en voiture (she's coming by car); nous venons en avion (we're coming by plane).

2 fourchette :

Une fourchette (a fork) is not a mode of transport. Example: je voudrais une fourchette propre s'il vous plaît (I'd like a clean fork, please).

2 camion :

Un camion means “a truck, a lorry”. That's not the vehicle shown here.

3 bus :

Caroline vient en bus (Caroline's coming by bus). We pronounce the -s at the end of bus. Example: il prend le bus tous les jours (he takes the bus every day).

3 poussette :

La poussette means "the pushchair, the stroller". That's not the vehicle shown here. Example: ma petite sœur dort dans sa poussette (my little sister sleeps in her stroller).

3 bise :

Une bise means “a kiss”, the traditional greeting used among French people. It isn't a mode of transport! Example: je te fais une grosse bise ! (I'm sending you a big kiss!).
