【小题20】C

解析:

作者通过生活中所遭受的烟雾的侵扰,联想到了污染的危害性，进而呼吁国家应大力采取措施来保护环境,尽力使其处于自然状态。

【小题1】the other day意为“几天前”，可以用作状语。

【小题2】四个选项中只有have可以同时后接a drink和a talk这样两个宾语。

【小题3】it 为形式主语,that从句为真主语从句,全句意为“餐馆里几乎每个人都在抽烟,此事突然引起了我的注意”。A、C不能接人，应予排除，show表示人为地展示给他人看，在此不合语境。

【小题4】it is not long before …是一个句型，表示没过多久就……，由此可以看出烟雾之大。

【小题5】根据意义和搭配不难选定。

【小题6】ask for permission意为“请求允许”,其他三个选项不合逻辑。

【小题7】这里有点夸张的味道，从句末的感叹号上也能体会出作者当时的心情。

【小题8】这里的双重否定表示“一上街就自然地…”。B、C、D三项明显不合逻辑。

【小题9】从词语搭配角度考虑。

【小题10】只有真正地“改善了公共交通系统，才能使市民弃用私车”。

【小题11】目的就是要鼓励人们把车“停放”在家中。

【小题12】由于高空中的烟雾,作者朋友在上飞行课时自然会感到身体，尤其是眼睛不舒服，由作者朋友的心理活动I’m breathing that也可作出这种推断。

【小题13】在高处向下看物体应用look down at sth。

【小题14】空中的烟雾应该视作一种“污染”。

【小题15】此处为递进关系，表示“能且应该”，故用and。

【小题16】道路应用“建设(construction)”。building表示房屋的“建筑”，应排除。

【小题17】另三个选项不能概全。

【小题18】这里表达的是作者的一种愿望。

【小题19】作者意思是指要通过建公园来保护环境。根据意义不难排除另三个选项。

【小题20】保持自然状态以用states为好。
