问题     Assuming that a constant travel-time budget, geographic constraints and short-term infrastructure constraints persist as fundamental features of global mobility, what long-term results can one expect? In high-income regions, 【C1】______North America, our picture suggests that the share of traffic【C2】______supplied by buses and automobiles will decline as high-speed transport rises sharply. In developing countries, we【C3】______the strongest increase to be in the shares first for buses and later for automobiles.

In several developing regions, most travel【C10】______in 2050 will still be devoted to nonmotorized modes. Buses will persist【C11】______the primary form of motorized transportation in developing countries for decades.【C12】______important air travel becomes, buses, automobiles and【C13】______low-speed trains will surely go on serving vital functions.【C14】______of the super-rich already commute and shop in aircraft, but average people will continue to spend most of their travel time on the【C15】______.
【C4】
选项 A、outcomes
