Because of airlines’ efforts to【28】______their expenses, cabin-air filters are not cleaned【29】______. The complaints of flight attendants do not always give【30】______to correct maintenance. Airlines turned to recycled air, 【31】______that they would reduce some of their costs. They are not required to put filters in. Airlines are【32】______great pressure to get their flights out【33】______. So they do not pay as much attention to systems that are not as【34】______to flight schedule and safety.
Recent research findings emphasize the concern that filters can【35】______engine chemicals into the cabin air. This may not happen【36】______every flight, but it is a persistent problem.

B、unhealthy
C、unbearable
D、crisp
答案

解析
humid温暖潮湿的;unhealthy对健康有害的,不卫生的;unbearable难以忍受的;crisp凉爽的,清新的。根据文章第一句话可知,很多人乘坐飞机后会感冒,由此可以推断此处表达的意思是“……不健康”,故选B。
