Air pollution killed about seven million people last year, making it the world’s single biggest environmental health risk, the World Health Organisation (WHO) says. The【C1】________a doubling of previous estimates, means one in eight of all global deaths were linked to polluted air. This means air pollution has【C2】________poor diet, high blood pressure and tobacco smoke as the leading【C3】________of preventable death worldwide. It also shows how【C4】________pollution inside and outside of people’s homes could save millions of lives in future.
Air pollution deaths are most【C5】________from heart disease, strokes or lung disease. It is also linked to deaths from lung cancer and【C6】________breathing infections. "The evidence【C7】________the need for concerted action to clean up the air we all breathe," said Maria Neira, an official from WHO. "The risks from air pollution are now far greater than previously thought or understood, particularly for heart disease and strokes."
Poor and middleincome 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. Indoor pollution is mostly caused by cooking【C8】________coal, wood stoves. The WHO estimates that around 2.9 billion people worldwide live in homes using wood or coal as their【C9】________cooking fuel. Outdoors, air is mainly polluted by transport, power generation, industrial and agricultural emissions and residential【C10】________and cooking. Research suggests outdoor air pollution【C11】________levels have risen significantly in some parts of the world, particularly in【C12】________ countries with large populations【C13】________rapid industrialization.
Carlos Dora, a WHO public health expert, called on governments and health【C14】________to act on the evidence and【C15】________policies to reduce air pollution, which【C16】________would improve health and reduce humans’【C17】________on climate change. "Excessive air pollution is often a by-product of unsustainable policies in【C18】________such as transport, energy, waste management and industry, " he said. "In most cases, healthier【C19】________will also be more economical in the long term due to healthcare cost savings as well as climate【C20】________."
【C19】
选项
A、strategies
B、plans
C、foods
D、environments
答案
A
解析
上句提到空气严重污染通常是不可持续政策的副产品,说明应提倡可持续政策。本句继续讨论政策,空格处所填单词应与政策(policies)意思相近,A项strategies意为“策略”,表明更健康的策略从长远看会更节约,符合语义逻辑。B项plans、C项foods和D项environments分别表示“计划”、“食物”和“环境”,与政策不构成近义词。
