1. Paragraph A

In paragraph A, the author says “Although modern information technologies can reduce the

demand for physical transport by facilitating teleworking and teleservices, the requirement for transport continues to rise.” The main idea is “the requirement for transport continues to rise”. To support this main idea, the author gives two factors, one of which is “the spectacular growth in car use”. So, the correct heading for paragraph A is viii.

=> ANSWER: viii: The rapid growth of private transport

• 
  the rapid growth=the spectacular growth
  
• 
  private transport = car
  

1. Paragraph B

In paragraph B, the first sentence is also the main idea “As far as goods transport is concerned, growth is due to a large extent to changes in the European economy and its system of production.” Then, the author indicates that these changes cause some production sites to be relocated far away
from the final assembly plant or away from users – perhaps even „hundreds or even thousands of kilometres away‟. This means that these changes affect the transport distances. So, the correct heading for paragraph B is iii.
