許多自然界中可發(fā)現(xiàn)的污染物。所以選A)“它們是空氣凈化過(guò)程中的一部分”。

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：由題干關(guān)鍵詞inlocalizedregions定位至第三段第一句可知，在局部

地區(qū)，人類活動(dòng)產(chǎn)生的污染物隨時(shí)可能超出自然界凈化系統(tǒng)的承載能力。因此

B）“它能超出自然界凈化系統(tǒng)的承受能力”正確。

A、itisinalocalizedarea

B、itcanbecalculatedquickly

D、theothersubstancesintheareaareknown

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：由題干關(guān)鍵話Thenumericalvalue定位至第三段第四句，例如，硫氧

化物在0.08Ppm（百萬(wàn)分之0.08）時(shí)就會(huì)對(duì)健康有影響，這是它自然水平的400

倍：然而一氧化碳的自然水平是0.Ippm,濃度只有達(dá)到15Ppm才能成為污染

物。因此可知C）“也知道其自然濃度的水平”為正確答案。
