　　语篇解读：本文是说明文。世界卫生组织表示，每十个人中就有九个呼吸着不良空气，每年全球有600多万人死于空气污染。世界卫生组织同时呼吁大家采取行动，控制空气污染。

　　1．are killed　主语over six million people worldwide是谓语动词动作kill的承受者，需用被动语态；这里说的是每年的情况，故用一般现在时。

　　2．particularly　空白处所填词在句中修饰形容词serious，需用particular的副词形式。

　　3．but　城市中的空气污染问题尤为严重，但是乡下的空气质量比多数人想象的要糟。前后两个并列分句之间意义上存在转折关系，故用but连接。

　　4．dirtier　由句中的"than"可知，这里应该填dirty的比较级形式。

5．to fight　动词不定式作目的状语。
