　　【講解】

　　文中的heavy air pollution就是“空氣重污染”的意思，其中pollution是一個(gè)不可數(shù)名詞，意思是“污染”，如industrial pollution(工業(yè)污染)、water pollution(水污染)、noise pollution(噪音污染)等。形容“嚴(yán)重污染”，就可以說heavy pollution。和pollution相關(guān)的詞匯還有名詞pollutant(污染物、有害物質(zhì))、動(dòng)詞pollute(污染)、形容詞polluted(受污染的)等。polluted的反義詞是加上否定前綴un-，構(gòu)成unpolluted(未經(jīng)污染的)。

　　此外，文中第一段的watchdog是一個(gè)名詞，釋義為“監(jiān)察機(jī)關(guān)”。
