After the war some of these were changed to carry a few passenger services. In 1919 the first regular passenger services were started between several cities in Europe.Air transport was even then too____77____for most cargoes(货物), but mail began to be carried by air at an early stage. This was partly because letters are small and light, and partly because businessmen, especially, were prepared to pay more for their mail to be delivered by the fastest method____78____, in the United States, where letters could take over a week to cross the country by train, airmail services were the first regular transport flights.The early passenger aircraft could carry only about 12 passengers, and only enough____79____for short journeys. For long distances, such as from Europe to the United states, filled with very light gas and able to float through the air, began to be used in the 1930s.By the end of the Second World War in 1945, much larger airplanes had been made. At the same time, military(军事的) airfields had been built all over the world, and long-distance routes had been set up.

Perhaps there are apples from California, lamb from New Zealand, or potatoes from Egypt? You may be amazed how____75____food travels to get to your plate.

Perhaps there are apples from California, lamb from New Zealand, or potatoes from Egypt? You may be amazed how____75____food travels to get to your plate.
