From this weekend, teams of engineers and explosives experts will start to build the world’s largest railway tunnel through the Alps in an【B2】______to bring northern and southern Europe closer together.

Fifteen years ago【B7】______900,000 vehicles used the motorway. Again and again,【B8】______activists have tried to block the passes to protest against carbon emissions that are spoiling the Alpine air and wrecking communities.
When the tunnels are completed in 2016 two railway lines through the Brenner should take up the strain. The two tubes, 39 miles long, will be able to take 400 trains a day.【B9】______. The link is expected to transform Europe in dozens of ways:【B10】______; saving Alpine villages; transforming neglected north Italian resorts, and ensuring quick delivery of Mediterranean food to northern Europe.
