问题 Though Kimiyuki Suda used to own a sport utility vehicle, he now travels by ______ in most cases.
Like people in Japan, European city dwellers may also undergo a shift from owning a car to using ______.

选项

答案mass transit

解析 根据题干中的European和shift定位到第二段倒数第二句和末句:The country’s urban population has grown by nearly 20 percent since 1990,and most city dwellers use mass transit on a daily basis,making it less essential to own a car.Experts say Europe,where the car market is also quite mature,may be in for a similar shift.第二段末句提到,专家认为在汽车市场同样成熟的欧洲可能会经历类似的转变,从similar一词可知,此句之前一定描述了“转变”的内容。倒数第二句指出,日本的城市人口自1990年以来增长了近20%,而大多数城市居民每天大都使用公共交通工具,这使拥有汽车变得越来越不重要,也就是说越来越多的日本城市居民正在由使用私家车转变为使用公共交通工具,这也就是欧洲城市居民可能经历的类似的“转变”。题干中的may also undergo a shift是对原文may be in for a similar shift的同义转述,因此空白处应填入mass transit。
