Amtrak was experiencing a downswing in ridership along the lines comprising the rail system. Of major concern to Amtrak and its advertising agency DDB Needham, were the long-distance western 31 where ridership had been declining significantly.
At one time, trains were the only practical way to cross the vast areas of the west. Trains were fast, luxurious, and quite convenient 32 to other forms of transportation existing at the time. However, times changed and the automobile became America’s standard of convenience. Also, air travel had easily established itself as the fastest method of traveling great distances. Therefore, the task for DDB Needham was to encourage consumers to consider other 33 of train travel in order to change their attitudes and increase the likelihood that trains would be considered for travel in the west.
Two portions of total market were 34 : A) anxious fliers—those concerned 35 safety, relaxation, and cleanliness and B) travel-lovers—those viewing themselves as relaxed, 36 , and interested in the travel experience as part of their vacation. The agency then developed a campaign that focused on travel experiences such as freedom, escape, relaxation, and enjoyment of the great western outdoors. It stressed experiences 37 by using the trains and portrayed western train trips as wonderful adventures.
Advertisements showed pictures of the beautiful 38 that could be enjoyed along some of the more famous western routes and emphasized the romantic names of some of these trains (Empire Builder, etc.). These ads were strategically placed among family-oriented TV shows and programs 39 nature and America in order to most affectively reach target audiences. Results were impressive. The Empire Builder, which was focused on in one ad, enjoyed a 15 percent increase in profits 40 its Chicago to Seattle route.

Directions: Read the following passage and then choose the best choice.
Mass transportation revised the social and economic fabric of the American city in three fundamental ways. It speeded up physical expansion, it sorted out people and land uses, and it accelerated the inherent instability of urban life. By opening vast areas of unoccupied land for residential expansion, the omnibuses, horse railways, commuter trains and electric trolleys pulled settled regions outward two or four times more distance from city centers than they were in the pre-modern era. In 1850, for example, the borders of Boston lay scarcely two miles from the old business district; by the turn of the century the radius (半径范围) extended ten miles. Now those who could afford it could live far removed from the old city center and still commuter there for work, shopping, and entertainment. The new accessibility of land around the outer edge of almost every major city sparked an explosion of real estate development and fueled what we now know as urban sprawl. Between 10 and 1920, for example, some 250,000 new residential lots were recorded within the borders of Chicago, most of them located in remote areas. Over the same period, another 550,000 were plotted outside the city limits but within the metropolitan area. Anxious to take advantage of the possibilities of commuting, real-estate developers added 800,000 potential building sites to the Chicago region in just thirty years—lots that could have housed five to six million people.
Of course, many were never occupied, there was always a huge surplus subdivided, but vacant land around Chicago and other cities. These excesses underscore a feature of residential expansion related to the growth of mass transportation: urban sprawl was essentially unplanned. It was carried out by thousands of small investors who paid little heed to coordinated land use or to future land users. Those who purchased and prepared land for residential purposes, particularly land near or outside city borders where transit lines and middle-class inhabitants were anticipated, did so to create demand as much as to respond to it. Chicago is a prime example of this process. Real estate subdivision there proceeded much faster than population growth.

A) types of mass transportation
B) instability of urban life
