11.XI'AN-China has introduced various emergency responses and longterm measures against air pollution in the central and eastern regions.
The air quality index (AQI) for Xi'an reached 500on Wednesday afternoon,at the top of the AQI scale,according to the national air quality monitoring website.Xi'an weather forecasters predict the smog (霧霾) will continue for the next week and air pollution may worsen.
"I have to keep buying masks for my family,"said Liu,buying masks at a pharmacy (藥店) near her home in downtown Xi'an."This is the only thing we can do to protect ourselves."
On Wednesday,a city government emergency response plan was put into action,suspending all the construction and taking at least 50percent of government vehicles off the road.Power plants must limit their output and reduce emissions.
Nearly half the country,more than 100cities in 20provinces,has suffered from smog since last December.Many have taken action,including experimenting with artificial methods to reduce smog,limiting vehicle use and fining polluters.
Assessments based on GDP alone were abandoned last month and more emphasis has been put on public wellbeing and the environment.Whether the move will be effective in forcing local governments consider environmental issues over economic growth remains to be seen.Environmental protection professionals are doubtful about the immediacy of the effects of these measures.
Xiao Hang,an urban researcher at the Chinese Academy of Sciences,said it took London 50years to lose the moniker (綽號)"foggy London town"and Los Angeles still struggles to control its photochemical (光化學(xué)) smog.""We can't ignore environmental problems during the development process and China has a long way to go."he said.

分析 本文是一篇關(guān)于中國采取措施整治環(huán)境污染,減少霧霾的新聞報道.在文中作者提到了西安的空氣質(zhì)量,提到了西安市民以及政府對此采取的應(yīng)對措施.也提到了國家為了整治環(huán)境污染而采取的措施,并且指出整治污染是一個長期的過程.
解答 41.B.主旨大意題.本文是新聞報道,在文章首段提出中心,即:中國已經(jīng)啟動緊急預(yù)案和并且采取長期措施來應(yīng)對霧霾天氣,由此判斷C選項(xiàng)內(nèi)容更能體現(xiàn)文章中心,故選B.
42.C.詞義猜測題.根據(jù)第四段a city government emergency response plan was put into action,可知后文是對緊急應(yīng)對計劃的解釋,由此推斷應(yīng)該是停止正在建設(shè)的項(xiàng)目,以減少污染,故選C.
43.A.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文中"Assessments based on GDP alone were abandoned last month and more emphasis has been put on public wellbeing and the environment."可知,基于GDP的評估對環(huán)境保護(hù)是有害的,這才廢除.故選A.
44.A.推理判斷題.根據(jù)文章最后一段中"We can't ignore environmental problems during the development process and China has a long way to go,和對倫敦治理霧霾的漫長過程可知解決環(huán)境問題需要人們付出很大的努力,故選A.
45.C.推理判斷題.仔細(xì)閱讀全文可知,這是一篇新聞報道,最有可能是在報紙上.故選C.
點(diǎn)評 本文是新聞報道類閱讀理解文章,閱讀此類文章主要是要了解:
①新聞報道了什么事件;②事件是因?yàn)槭裁炊l(fā)生的,相關(guān)背景如何;③文段中指出的事件發(fā)生過程中的突出細(xì)節(jié)是 什么;④事件造成的后果是什么;⑤事件的本質(zhì)是什么,透過事件的表面現(xiàn)象,我們看到了什么社會問題.通過這樣的梳理,我們就可以把新聞的脈絡(luò)理清楚.這類材料命題點(diǎn)往往落在事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)上.
