(答案→)F
解析：本文通过对方讨论了铁路运营同飞机，汽车相比的优势，得出铁路运营有着广阔的前景。
【小题1】根据上文 好多年了，人们一直认为铁路是死的，铁路太慢，而且汽车和飞机时铁路没有存在的必要，根据下文I think in these days of expensive oil, railways have bee highly petitive with motorcars and planes.而我认为在油价很高的现代，铁路和汽车和飞机相比更有竞争力，所以F起着桥梁作用，提出反对意见，引出下文所以F正确。
【小题2】根据下文A plane goes in a straight line, and so does a railway，飞机可以直达，铁路也如此，这是它们的共同之处，所E以正确。
【小题3】根据Nor does it hold you up as a car does in heavy traffic，确定前句一定是否定句说明的是铁路的优点，所B以正确。
【小题4】 根据上文对铁路运营的观点及下文Modern railway lines give you a smooth, untroubled journey.所以C正确。
【小题5】根据上文最后总结出来一句话，即：铁路运营有着广阔的前景，所以A正确。
