试题详情及答案解析

For years scientists have been worried about the effects of air pollution on the earth’s natural conditions. Some believe the air inside many houses may be more dangerous than the air outside. It may be one hundred times worse.
Indoor air pollution can cause a person to feel tired, to suffer eye pain, headache and other problems. Some pollutants（污染物）can cause breathing disorders, diseases of blood and even cancer. Most scientists agree that every modern house has some kind of indoor pollution.
People have paid more attention to the problem now. It is true that when builders began making houses and offices they did not waste energy.To do this they build buildings that limited the flow of air between inside and outside. They also began using man-made building materials. These materials are now known to let out harmful gases.
As the problem became more serious, scientists began searching for a way to deal with it. They discovered a natural pollution control system for building—green plants. Scientists do not really know how plants control air pollution. They believe that a plant’s leaves absorb or take in the pollutants. In exchange the plant lets out oxygen through its leaves and tiny organizations on its roots. Scientists suggest that all buildings should have one large plant or several small plants inside for every nine square meters of space. Studies of different plants show that each absorbs different chemicals. So the most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants. Having green plants inside your house can make it a prettier and more healthy place.
【小题1】Generally speaking, indoor air pollution may be more harmful than the air outside because _ .

A．indoor air pollution can often make people seriously ill

B．there may be more harmful gases outside the buildings

C．man-made building materials give off dangerous gases

D．the air indoors is polluted, which is very harmful

【小题2】Some kind of indoor pollution can be found in _______.

A．every old house	B．every modern house
C．all kinds of houses	D．all kinds of offices

【小题3】The indoor air pollution is caused by ______.

A．the man-made building materials and the limit of air-flow

B．the building way that the builders want to save energy

C．the building things that are made of man-made materials

D．the limit of the flow of air between inside and outside

【小题4】The reason why we should use different kinds of plants to clean the air is that ______.

A．plants can let out all kinds of pollutants indoors

B．plants may take in more oxygen which people need

C．plants can make our houses prettier and more healthy

D．plants can absorb all kinds of harmful indoor chemicals

答案：【小题1】C
【小题2】B
【小题3】A
【小题4】D

试题分析：本文是一篇科技说明文。主要是讲的室内空气污染现在已经被更多的人关注了，科学家们也正在寻找一系列的方法来解决这些问题。
【小题1】C细节题：由第三段最后一句They also began using man-made building materials. These materials are now known to let out harmful gases可以知道，室内空气污染比室外空气污染更严重的原因就是人工材料产生的气体。所以答案是C。
【小题2】B理解分析题：文章第三段提到了现在很多新建的房子里卖年都有一些有害气体，导致室内空气污染严重。根据来判断，所以选B。
【小题3】A细节题：第三段的最后两句They also began using man-made building materials. These materials are now known to let out harmful gases.可以知道，造成室内空气污染的原因，一个是limited the flow of air 一个是man-made material。所以答案选A。
【小题4】D细节题：由文章倒数二三句So the most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants. Having green plants inside your house can make it a prettier and more healthy place.可以得知，不同的植物能够吸收不同的化学气体，所以才要在房间内摆放不同的植物。所以答案是D。
