Our world is on the move. There are more and more people using ____ transport, driving their own cars, and flying around the world. But there is also more and more ____, there are more and more ____, and ____ seems to be going slower than before, not faster. So shouldn't we be thinking of ways to ____ the world of transport? American ____ Elon Musk is quite clearly a man who wants to help bring about this ____. With his Tesla Motors company he has managed to ____ the electric car, producing a popular all-electric sports car. Meanwhile, another of his companies, SpaceX, produces and ____ various ____ and rockets. But his boldest plan for future transport is the Hyperloop, a plan which looks and sounds like pure science ____. If everything goes ____ to plan, the Hyperloop will be a ____ of long tubes set on top of ____ which will run next to ____. Inside the tubes people will travel inside ____: about six passengers plus their luggage per capsule. The capsules will create a ____ of air underneath them. With no ____, Musk believes they will be able to travel at ____ of up to 1,220kph, nearly the speed of sound! It will take just half an hour to travel from Los Angeles to San Francisco. ____ the journey takes seven hours. The ____ of the Hyperloop is that it is much faster than a high-speed train, and, unlike planes, there will be no time ____ in taking off and landing. Nevertheless, for journeys over 1,600 kilometres, Eton Musk believes that ____ air travel will be ____. In the last 50 years, there has been a sharp ____ in the number of people travelling by air. All the ____ suggests that this trend is going to continue. With this in mind, the company Airbus has already made plans for how they are going to make flying more ____. The engineers at Airbus think that in 2050, with new ____ techniques and ____, planes will have ____ sections allowing you ____ views from your seat. Seats will change size and shape to give you a more comfortable flight. And ____ will be able to choose between different zones in the plane such as an Interactive zone, where you'll be able to meet people and play electronic games, and a Relaxation zone, where special ____ will give you a massage! For shorter journeys, ____ predict that cars will probably ____ the most common ____ of transport. Of course, soon the ____ car will be the norm, hopefully limiting the number of road ____. But it probably won't be too long before we start seeing flying cars in our skies. Indeed, one of the biggest changes in the future will be the number of ____ in the sky. Soon, when you look up, you'll see hundreds of ____ carrying everything from pizzas to heavy ____. A group of experts is meeting again next month to talk about the ____ of drones on air traffic. But imagine when cars take to the skies, too. A major challenge will be how to produce flying cars that do not create terrible air and noise ____, or serious ____. Talking of accidents, it is often said that the safest form of transport is ____. Maybe that's one of the reasons why Japanese ____ are drawing up plans to put ____ into space using a massive elevator that will travel more than 35,000 kilometres into ____. Thirty passengers and their small ____ will spend a week travelling a quarter of the way to the Moon at speeds of up to 190kph. At the end of the ____, they'll reach a ____ station where they'll be able to get an ____ view of the Earth, with little or no training ____. The only problems at the moment are the cost of the elevator's ____ (roughly ____ at $6 billion), and the fact that it could take 40 years to build!
