单选题 Some cleaning fluids, synthetic carpets, wall paneling, and other products release toxins, such as formaldehyde and benzene, into the household air supply. This is not a problem in well-ventilated houses, but it is a problem in houses that are so well insulated that they trap toxins as well as heat. Recent tests, however, demonstrate that houseplants remove some household-toxins from the air and thereby eliminate their danger. In one test, 20 large plants eliminated formaldehyde from a small, welt-insulated house. Assume that a person who lives in a small, well-insulated house that contains toxin-releasing products places houseplants, such as those tested, in the house.
Which one of the following can be expected as a result?

【正确答案】 D
【答案解析】[解析] 本题的结论为室内盆栽植物可以吸收空气中的毒素。因此若一个密闭性良好的房间内有释放毒素的产品时,放入较多的室内盆栽植物后,室内的空气中的毒素肯定会下降,所以(D)为正确答案;(B)为明显错误的选项;(E)具有迷惑性,但(E)错在每种毒素物质的释放量均会下降上,我们知道室内盆栽植物只能吸收毒素,而不能抑制毒素的排放;(A)和(C)都不能从本题的论述中合理地推出。
