What does Nicolas Watts think will greatly reduce the danger of outdoor air pollution?
【解题思路】选项中两项为名词短语，两项为动名词短语，表示的内容均为某种措施。本题很可能考查关于某种现象的解决方案或措施的细节。
【解析】讲话中间部分提到，沃特称从燃煤发电厂到可再生能源的转变可以极大地减小这种威胁，联系土文，此处提到的这种威胁就是指室外空气污染，故正确答案为B项。A、c两项是后文沃特提到的其他两种环保方式，但并没有直接说这可以极大地减少空气污染的威胁，且两项类似的建议同时出现，因此不可能为正确答案。气候变化影响了全世界人们的健康，D项是后文委员会对此提出的几点宏观性建议之一，不符合题意，故排除。

2根据下面资料，回答题
England's highest main-line railway station hangs on to life by a thread: deserted and unmanned (无人的.since it was officially closed in 1970. Dent,26 high in the hills of Yorkshire, wakes up on six summer weekends each year, when a special charter train unloads walkers, sightseers and people who 27 want to catcha train from the highest station, on to its platform. But even this limited existence may soon be brought to an end.Dent station is situated on the Settle to Carlisle railway line, said to be the most 28 in the country. But no amount of scenic beauty can save the line from British Rail's cash problems. This year, for the 29 of economy,the express trains which used to pass through Dent station have been put on to another route.
It is now an open secret that British Rail sees no future for this railway line. Most of its trains disappeared some time ago. Its bridge, built on a grand 30 a century ago, is falling down. It is not alone. Half-a-dozen railway routes in the north of England are facing a similar threat. The problem is a worn-out system and an almost 31 lack of cash to repair it. Bridges and tunnels are showing their age, the wooden supports for the tracks are rotting and engines and coaches are getting old. On 32 lines between large cities, the problem is not too bad. These lines still make a profit and cash can be found to 33 them. But on the country branch line, the story is different. As track wears out, it is not replaced. Instead speed limits are introduced, making journeys longer than necessary and discouraging customers.
If a bridge is dangerous, there is often only one thing for British Rail to do: go out and find money from another 34. This is exactly what it did a few months ago when a bridge at Bridling ton station was threatening to fail down. Repairs were 35 at 200,000—just for one bridge—and British Rail was delighted, and rather surprised, when two local councils offered half that amount between them.
A.maintain
B.scenic
C.transcend
D.source
E.estimated
F.sake
G.complex
H.simply
I.consolidation
J.situated
K.respectively
L.total
M.major
N.restrained
O.scale
