Many people who fly at least occasionally have come down with a cold or the flu shortly after disembarking. Is the air in airborne commercial jets【21】______? The Association of Flight Attendants (AFA), 【22】______which 42, 000 flight attendants with 27 airlines are represented, evidently thinks so. The organization claims that the incidence of air-quality-related diseases has【23】______among its members and demands that prompt actions be【24】______to improve the conditions in the airplane cabin.
A study the AFA【25】______in 1997 uncovered about 1, 000 self-reported incidents of headaches, dizziness and memory loss【26】______flight attendants and passengers. Some flight attendants were too ill to【27】______their safety duties, while others have been permanently disabled.
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.
In a study published in October 1998 an investigation was made【37】______complaints of crew members【38】______air quality and health. More than half of the 200 subjects reported health problems they【39】______to cabin air. It was concluded that these health problems were consistent with【40】______harmful gases and substances.

选项
A、suspended
B、dropped
C、raised
D、increased
答案
D
解析
suspend暂停;drop降低;raise增加;increase v.增加。根据上文内容,很多乘客乘坐飞机后发现自己患了流感或感冒,由此可以推断出,与空气质量有关的疾病的发病率一直在上升,因此排除A和B;当raise做“增加”讲时,其主语是人,而该句的主语是incidence,因此可以排除raise;increase主语可以是人或者物,故选D。
