Nor is the state's bad air __27__ to its south. Fresno, in the central valley, comes top of the list in America for year-round pollution. Residents' hearts and lungs are affected as a __28__. All of which, combined with California's reputation as the home of technological __29__, makes the place ideal for developing and testing systems designed to monitor pollution in __30__.

逐空解析

26. 答案:M

此处需要一个名词,表示洛杉矶空气污染水平高。根据上下文,'Los Angeles is still the worst city in the United States for levels of __26__',需要填入'pollutants'(污染物),因为污染物是衡量空气污染水平的关键指标。

27. 答案:N

此处需要一个形容词,修饰名词'air',表示加州的空气污染不仅限于其南部。根据上下文,'Nor is the state's bad air __27__ to its south',需要填入'restricted'(受限的),表示空气污染问题不只局限于加州南部。

28. 答案:C

此处需要一个名词,表示居民的心脏和肺部受到影响。根据上下文,'Residents' hearts and lungs are affected as a __28__',需要填入'consequence'(后果),表示空气污染对居民健康的影响是其直接后果。

29. 答案:J

此处需要一个名词,表示加州作为技术创新的中心。根据上下文,'California's reputation as the home of technological __29__',需要填入'innovation'(创新),表示加州以其技术创新而闻名。

30. 答案:F

此处需要一个形容词,修饰名词'pollution',表示监测污染的地点。根据上下文,'developing and testing systems designed to monitor pollution in __30__',需要填入'outdoor'(户外的),表示这些系统旨在监测户外污染。

31. 答案:K

此处需要一个形容词,修饰名词'monitoring stations',表示这些站点的设计目的。根据上下文,'It has been trying out monitoring stations that are __31__ to yield minute-to-minute maps of __32__ air pollution',需要填入'intended'(旨在),表示这些监测站旨在提供实时的空气污染地图。

32. 答案:L

33. 答案:B

此处需要一个名词,表示旧金山的交通工人罢工时被迫使用汽车的人。根据上下文,'the city's __34__ were forced to use their cars',需要填入'inhabitants'(居民),表示城市居民在交通工人罢工时被迫开车。

35. 答案:E(creating)

空格位于介词 by 之后,须填动名词(-ing)形式作宾语,且与上文 'revealed pollution highs'(揭示污染高峰)形成对照。''cycle to work' days have done their job by __35__ pollution lows' 意为'骑车上班日通过制造污染低值完成了它的使命',故填 creating(创造/制造)。原答案 frequently 是副词,无法接在 by 后充当 'pollution lows' 的支配成分,语法不通;creating 既满足 by+动名词 结构,又与 highs/lows 的对照语义吻合。
