42、，但由于污染嚴重，整個新德里處于危險的污染中，人們必須戴防污口罩，冬天天氣寒冷污染物成霧霾，成為世界是污染最嚴重的城市。(1)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第三段“AipollutioninIndianscapitalsurgedtoitsworstlevelsinyears,coveringthecityinathicksmogthathasbecomeanannualpublic-healthemergencydespitegovernmentvowstosolvetheproblem.印度首都的空氣污染飆升至多年來最嚴重的水平，籠罩著這座城市的濃霧已成為年度公共衛(wèi)生緊急事件，盡管政府誓言要解決這個問

45、eclosedMondayandofficialsrushedtotakeemergencymeasurestotrytoreversetheerodingairquality.Millionsofantipollutionmasksweredistributedatschools,colleges,hospitalsandmarkets.周末期間，由于能見度低，數(shù)百架航班被迫改道、延誤和取消，學(xué)校和辦公室周一關(guān)閉，官員們緊急采取措施，試圖扭轉(zhuǎn)不斷惡化的空氣質(zhì)量。學(xué)校、大學(xué)、醫(yī)院和市場分發(fā)了數(shù)百萬個防污染口罩。由此可知，由于污染嚴重，學(xué)校、大學(xué)、醫(yī)院和市場分發(fā)了數(shù)百萬個防污染口罩。所以生產(chǎn)防污

46、染口罩的廠家要加大生產(chǎn)，是不會抱怨的，故選C(3)考查詞義猜測。根據(jù)第五段中的NewDelhi,isengulfedeachyearastheweathercoolsandathickhazebuildsupfromthepollutantsemittedfromcarsandcoal-basedpowerplants,swirlingdustfromconstructionsitesandroadsandsmokefromcropstubbleburninginneighboringstates.本句是說新德里每年都籠罩在污染中。因為天氣變冷，從汽車和以煤為基礎(chǔ)的發(fā)電廠“emitted的污染

47、物形成了厚厚的霧霾。根據(jù)常識可知，汽車和用煤發(fā)電的發(fā)電廠會排放或釋放”污染物的。由此可判斷“emitted是排放的意思。故選A。（4）考查主旨大意。本文敘述了隨著城市的發(fā)展和越來越多的人口流動，城市規(guī)模的擴大，印度的新德里成為世界上污染最嚴重的城市。雖然政府發(fā)誓解決污染問題，但周末的能見度低，數(shù)百架航班在周末改道、延誤和取消，學(xué)校和辦公室周一關(guān)閉，人們必須戴防污口罩，可知，新德里被嚴重的污染所籠罩。故選Bo【點評】本題考點涉及推理判斷，詞義猜測和主旨大意三個題型的考查，是環(huán)保類閱讀，考生需要根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。(5) 讀理解Scienceisfi
