A
A new study suggests that pollution of all kinds kills nearly 9 million people worldwide each year. Air pollution from industrial processes and the expansion of cities accounted for about 75% of the deaths, researchers found. The study was based on examinations of worldwide death rates and pollution levels.
The study separated traditional pollutants from modern pollutants. Examples of traditional pollutants are indoor smoke or wastewater. Modern pollutants include air pollution from vehicles or industrial activities and poisonous chemicals. The researchers found that deaths from traditional pollutants are dropping worldwide. But they remain a major problem in Africa and some other developing countries. In some countries, state programs to cut indoor air pollution and improvements in sanitation (卫生) have helped reduce death rates. In Ethiopia and Nigeria, for example, such efforts cut deaths by two-thirds between 2000 and 2019, the study found.
Modern kinds of pollution are rising in most countries, especially developing ones, the researchers said. Deaths caused by modern pollutants—heavy metals, agricultural chemicals and carbon emissions—are “skyrocketing,” said study co-writer Rachael Kupka. She heads the New York-based Global Alliance on Health and Pollution. Kupka said deaths linked to modern pollutants had risen 66% since 2000.
“Nine million deaths is a lot of deaths,” Philip Landrigan told The Associated Press about the study’s results. He is director of the Global Public Health Program at Boston College in Massachusetts. “The bad news is that it’s not decreasing,” Landrigan added. “We’re making gains in the easy stuff, and we’re seeing the more difficult stuff, outdoor industrial air pollution and chemical pollution, still going up.”
The study makes several suggestions for ways to cut the number of deaths. These include creating better recording and reporting methods and stronger government policies to reduce pollution linked to industrial activities and vehicle emissions.
“We absolutely know how to solve pollution problems,” said the study co-author Richard Fuller. “What’s missing is political will.”
1．What can be learned from the study about pollution
A．Air pollution killed 9 million people last year.
B．Cutting indoor air pollution is the best policy.
C．Traditional pollution is very serious in Nigeria.
D．Traditional pollutants cause less death than before.
2．What does the underlined word “skyrocketing” probably mean in paragraph 3
A．Improving. B．Increasing. C．Reducing. D．Worsening.
3．What can be inferred from Philip Landrign’s words
A．It is easy to fight modern pollution.
B．Outdoor air pollution is decreasing.
C．Modern pollution still concerns people.
D．It is hard to tell the reasons for pollution.
4．What might be talked about in the paragraph that follows
A．Methods to reduce pollution.
B．Government’s response to pollution.
C．Suggestions for industrial activities.
D．The damage caused by vehicle emissions.
