The correct answer is D. “absence” is a state of not being present or being away. If something was missing from the scene, it was absent.
A is incorrect - the word is misspelled.
B is incorrect - “absent” is both a verb and an adjective, but the sentence calls for the use of a noun.
C is incorrect - the word is misspelled.

The correct answer is C.
When two words are missing we need to go over the answer choices carefully and find the choice which offers correct answers for both of the missing words. Upon reading the sentence it becomes clear that the first missing word is likely a verb and the second missing word is likely a noun. Another thing we can deduce is that all the answer choices provide spelling variations of the same word, and we need to find the correct one.
A is incorrect - “through” is not the right fit for the first missing word, it is a preposition and not a verb, and “investgasion” is a misspelling of the word “investigation.”
B is incorrect - “throw” is a verb but it is in the present tense. The sentence calls for a verb in past tense.
C is correct - “threw” is the right tense and “investigation” is spelled correctly.
D is incorrect- both words are misspelled.

The question deals with railroad transport in general, as opposed to Europe's railway. It is based on the following section in the passage: ‘Rail transport offers a viable and competitive means of shifting more cargo traffic away from the continent’s crowded roads, thus improving traffic circulation and cutting vehicle-emitted pollution’. Now that we understand the question and have identified the corresponding section in the passage, let us eliminate distractors:

Statement A follows from the passage but addresses only the European railroad system.
Statement B follows from the passage and addresses rail transport in general.
Statement C does not follow from the passage; the passage says that the EU supports research to ensure high safety standards.
Statement D does not follow from the passage as it is not mentioned in the text.
Statement E follows from the passage but addresses only the European railroad system.
According to the passage, the EU is supporting new research and launching new projects to advance the European railroad system. It does not mean that the EU is not satisfied (statement F).

The only statement that follows from the passage and concerns the railroad system in general is: statement B.

The correct answer is F.

The question deals with the Youth in Action program. Note that this is a negatively-phrased question. We are asked to identify 5 objectives promoted by the Youth in Action program and 1 that is not. Let us eliminate distractors by finding the corresponding sections in the passage:

A.Furthered - ’as well as the inclusion of all young people, particularly those from less-privileged backgrounds’.
B.Furthered - ’its main goal is to bring young Europeans closer to the EU decision-shaping process by backing activities that encourage a sense of active European citizenship’.
C.Furthered - ’another important goal is promoting mutual understanding…’
D.Furthered - ’…thus giving them the opportunity to expand their horizons and gain valuable life and work experiences’.
E.Furthered - ’The EU’s Youth in Action program aims to inspire a sense of active European citizenship’ (together with the logic of the introduction)
F.Empathy towards the less privileged – not mentioned in the passage.
The only statement that is not an objective furthered by the Youth in action movement is: statement F.

The correct answer is A.

The statement is based on the following section of the passage: ’Given the impossibility of financing expenditures with deficits, one can realistically suggest budget-neutral increases in training programs and subsidies to businesses.’ In other words, the author suggests that the government cannot afford further expansion of the country's debt and therefore offers alternative measures to overcome the crisis. Thus, the statement is true.
