"The risks from air pollution are now far greater than previously thought or understood, particularly for heart disease and strokes."
Poor and middle-income countries in Southeast Asia and the Western Pacific region had the largest number of air pollution-related deaths, with 3.3 million deaths linked to indoor air pollution and 2.6 million deaths to outdoor air pollution.

选项
A、by chance
B、in particular
C、as usual
D、in turn
答案
D
解析
which引导的定语从句指代前半句卡洛斯.多拉呼吁的减少空气污染的举措,这样做能改善健康。D项in turn有“进而”之意,表示进而改善健康。A项by chance意为“偶然”,采取行动减少空气污染必然会改善健康,而不是偶然。B项in particular意为“尤其,特别”,C项as usual意为“像往常一样”,分别表示强调和比较,无法体现主从句的相互关系。
