Millions die early from air pollution each year. Air pollution costs the global economy more than $5 trillion annually in welfare costs, with the most serious(26:F:damage)occurring in the developing world.
每年有数百万人死于空气污染。大气污染每年给全球经济造成超过5万亿美元的福利成本，其中最严重的(26:损失)发生在发展中国家。
The figures include a number of costs (27:B:associated)with air pollution. Lost income alone amounts to $225 billion a year.
这些数字包括与空气污染(27:有关）的一些费用。单是收入损失就达每年2250亿美元。
The report includes both indoor and outdoor air pollution. Indoor pollution, which includes(28:M:sources)like home heating and cooking, has remained (29:D:constant) over the past several decades despite advances in the area. Levels of outdoor pollution have grown rapidly along with rapid growth in industry and transportation.
报告包括室内和室外空气污染。室内污染，包括家庭取暖和烹饪等(28:来源)，在过去几十年中一直保持(29:不变)，尽管该地区取得了进步。随着工业和交通运输的快速增长，室外污染水平也迅速增长。
Director of Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation Chris Murray (30:G:described) it as an “urgent call to action.”“One of the risk factors for premature deaths is the air we breathe, over which individuals have little (31:E:control) ,”he said.
卫生计量与评估研究所所长克里斯·默里(30:称之为)“紧急行动呼吁”。“造成过早死亡的危险因素之一是我们呼吸的空气，而个人对此几乎没有(31:控制力)，”他说。
The effects of air pollution are worst in the developing world, where in some places lost-labor income (32:H:equals) nearly 1% of GDP. Around 9 in 10 people in low-and middle-income countries live in places where they (33:K:regularly) experience dangerous levels of outdoor air pollution.
在发展中国家，空气污染的影响最为严重，在某些地方，劳动力收入的损失(32:相当于)国内生产总值的1%。在低收入和中等收入国家中，大约有10分之9的人生活在他们(33:经常)经历危险水平的室外空气污染的地方。
But the problem is not limited (34:I:exclusively) to the developing world. Thousands die prematurely in the U.S. as a result of related illnesses. In many European countries, where diesel (35:O:vehicles) have become more common in recent years, that number reaches tens of thousands.
但问题(34:不仅)限于发展中国家。在美国，数千人因相关疾病过早死亡。在许多欧洲国家，柴油(35:机动车)近年来变得越来越普遍，这一数字达到了数万。
