Smog（雾霾）is one of the hottest subjects these years. It does great harm to people’s health. The most terrible smog lasted for about a week in February, 2014. It covered 15 percent of the land in northern and central China.
Now, more and more people in China have realized the importance of protecting the environment. They try to save energy by walking or riding to work in their daily life. Cities including Beijing and Shanghai have taken action by controlling the number of cars and closing heavily polluting factories.
Beijing is heavily polluted, so it’s not easy to see blue skies there. But during the APEC summit（亚太经合会议峰会）in November last year, Beijing saw blue skies for a few days. People happily call that “APEC blue”.
“I hope the APEC blue will last, and I believe it will, because China has put great effort into reducing pollution.” said President Xi Jinping during the summit.
The two large countries, China and the USA, produce about 45 percent of the world’s greenhouse gases（温室气体）.On November 12, President Xi Jinping and Obama announced that both countries would work together to cut down CO2 emissions（二氧化碳的排放）. The goal needs everyone’s effort.
回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。
1.How long did the most terrible smog last in China in February, 2014?
2.How do more and more Chinese people help save energy in their daily life?
3.Why is it difficult for Beijing to see blue skies?
4.When was the APEC summit held in Beijing?
5.What would China and the USA work together to do?
I have been very lucky to make many trips to China. Though I have had some trouble with the language, I have never had a problem I couldn’t solve. As a native English speaker（土生土长的说英语的人），I can go almost everywhere in the world and find someone to communicate with. I never thought that someone who speaks only Chinese would have a lot of trouble in my country.
Recently, the King family that I had met in China moved to Canada. I met them at the airport. My wife and I made meals for them and showed them around where we live. Everything seemed to go smoothly for the first two days as we looked for a car for them, showed them the way to different stores and the nearest city, Victoria. Mr. and Mrs King had a two-year-old son and soon we became Nainai (grandmother) and Yeye (grandfather). We were having a good time but we didn’t realize Mr. King can’t speak English.
Luckily, Mrs. King can speak very good English. Many people with Chinese background live near us. In fact, none of them speak Chinese. Mr. King can’t even buy a mobile phone without his wife’s help. He can’t talk to me, of course. By the third day, he felt lonely and worried. And on the fourth day, we decided to take them to a large Chinese community.
Now, we often visit them and they visit us too. Sometimes Mrs. King would still like to live near us but Mr. King cannot. I feel bad because he seems very nice and smart but I can’t talk with him. It seems that neither of us will learn the other’s language because of our ages, maybe we will never have a friendly conversation. But we will think of each other as friends.
