It is really about clean technologies and clean fuels.And，the fuel store has not been stressed enough so far in the global debate.So，that is the new thing.We should be going for clean fuels，avoiding coal and going for the solar.”WHO officials say indoor pollution leads to early deaths from stroke，heart and lung disease and childhood lung cancer.These diseases can often result from high levels of fine particulate matter and carbon monoxide(一氧化碳) released by the burning of solid fuels.These fuels include wood，coal，animal waste，crop waste and charcoal.Women and girls are the main victims.The United Nations found that more than 95 percent of households in subSaharan Africa depend on solid fuels for cooking.It says huge populations in India，China and Latin American countries，such as Guatemala and Peru，are also at risk.WHO experts note some new，safe and lowcost technologies that could help are already available.But this is just a start.They are urging developing countries to use cleaner fuels and increase access to cleaner and more modern cooking and heating appliances.【文章大意】本文是一篇科普說明文。在室內(nèi)使用固體燃料會使室內(nèi)一氧化碳濃度升高，從而導致中毒死亡。為解決此問題，世界衛(wèi)生組織建議在發(fā)展中國家增加使用更清潔、更現(xiàn)代化的烹飪和加熱設(shè)備。1The reason for indoor air pollution is Astill unknownBthe use of

going for animal waste and coalusing clean fuelsincreasing access to cleaner and more modern cooking and heating appliancesopening a window or door to let out the harmful airABC DC解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)本文最后一句中的“to use cleaner fuels and increase access to cleaner and more modern cooking and heating appliances”可知，增加使用更清潔、更現(xiàn)代化的烹飪和加熱設(shè)備是解決問題的方法之一，故、正確；根據(jù)第五段最后兩句可知，室內(nèi)污染主要來自于固體燃料的使用而導致的室內(nèi)一氧化碳濃度升高，這些固體燃料包括煤炭，動物排泄物，木頭等，所以不在范圍內(nèi)；根據(jù)第四段第二句可知不正確。故C項正確。4Whats the main idea of

aimed at reducing household pollutants.”并結(jié)合全文內(nèi)容可知，本文主要說明了正確的烹飪方法將減輕發(fā)展中國家的室內(nèi)污染，從而減少死亡事故的發(fā)生。故D項正確。.完形填空(2016鄭州質(zhì)檢)A woman professor walked around in a classroom while she was
