EUROPEAN TRANSPORT SYSTEMS 1990-2010

C The strong economic growth expected in countries which are candidates for entry to the EU will also increase transport flows, in particular, road haulage traffic. In 1998, some of these countries already exported more than twice their 1990 volumes and imported more than five times their 1990 volumes. And although many candidate countries inherited a transport system which encourages rail, the distribution between modes has tipped sharply in favour of road transport since the 1990s. Between 1990 and 1998，road haulage increased by 19.4%, while during the same period rail haulage decreased by 43.5%, although – and this could benefit the enlarged EU – it is still on average at a much higher level than in existing member states.

本段涉及考题：

小标题

xi Transport trends in countries awaiting EU admission

解题思路1：

本段第一句话就是段落主旨句，与选项同意替换明显

解题思路2：

读不懂首句，基础较弱的同学，需要注意选项的词“trend趋势”，该词比较抽象，审题的时候要明白趋势有三种，分别是(上升，下降，不变)。文中可以重点关注此类趋势类的词汇，即使都不懂主旨句可以通过论据归纳出来答案，本文表趋势的词汇有(increase，more， twice ，five times ，higher，数据)。
