hù)其次段中的Anotherwaytocutbackonthesepollutantsistohavemoreinvestmentandpoliciesforrapidtransport.可推知，政府應(yīng)當(dāng)實(shí)行一些措施來治理污染問題。故選C。4．答案與解析：B主旨大意題。這是一篇說明文，文章前三段介紹了什么是“短期氣候污染物”以及它們會(huì)給人類帶來的危害，剩下的五段內(nèi)容提出了解決方案。只有選項(xiàng)B中的“short-livedclimatepollutants”可與本文主題“‘短期氣候污染物’”呼應(yīng)，其中的Reducing也與最終幾個(gè)段落中的解決方案呼應(yīng)。故選B。B【語篇解讀】本文是一篇說明文。對(duì)森林的探討表明，氣候變暖會(huì)變更木材的質(zhì)量——樹生長得越來越快，但樹也越來越脆弱。5．答案與解析：B寫作目的題。依據(jù)第一段中的“Supposingwoodwerejustasstrongtoday,thosegainswouldmeanmorewoodforbuilding,burning,andstoringcarboncapturedfromtheatmosphere.Butiswoodreallyasdense(茂密的)asitusedtobe”可知，第一段提出問題，啟發(fā)讀者進(jìn)行思索，從而引入本文的話題。故選B。6．答案與解析：C微小環(huán)節(jié)理解題。依據(jù)第三段中的“thestudysuggeststhatthehighertemperatures—combinedwithpollutionfromcarexhaustandfarms—aremakingwoodweaker,resultingintreesthatbreakmoreeasilyandwoodthatislessdurable”可知，對(duì)森林的探討表明，全球變暖會(huì)變更木材的質(zhì)量。故選C。7．答案與解析：A推理推斷題。依據(jù)最終一段中的“Thatmeansforestsmaysuffermoredam
