Swim Co offers training courses to athletes and has prepared the following breakeven chart

to go by land or sea. Hardly can anyone positively enjoy sitting in a train that for more than a few hours. 【M2】______ Train compartments soon get cramped and stuffy. It is almost impossible to take your mind off the journey. Reading is only a partial solution, though the monotonous rhythm of the wheels 【M3】______ clicking on the rails soon pulls you to sleep. During the day, sleep comes in snatches. At night, when you really wish to go to sleep, you usually manage to do so. If you are lucky enough to 【M4】______ get a sleeper, you spend half the night staring at the small blue light in the ceiling, or grope to find your passport when you 【M5】______ cross a frontier. Inevitably you arrive your destination almost 【M6】______ exhausted. Long car journeys are even less pleasant, for it is quite impossible to read. On motorways you can, at least, travel fairly safely at high speeds, but more often than not, the greater part of the journey is spent on narrow, bumpy roads which are crowded with traffic. By comparison, trips by sea for quite a long time offers a great variety of civilized comforts. You can stretch your 【M7】______ legs on the spacious decks, play games, swim, meet interesting people and enjoy good food — always assuming, of course, that the sea is rough. If it is not, and you are likely to get sea-sick, 【M8】______ np form. of transport could be better. Even if you travel in ideal 【M9】______ Weather, sea journeys take a long time. Presumably few people are prepared to sacrifice up to a third of their holidays for the pleasure of traveling on a plane. 【M10】______
