A recently study found people’s lives are made shorter in North China. It is showed the life expectancy(平均寿命) had been cut down by 5.5 years there. Researchers think that the heavy air pollution in China should be to blame. It’s really the truth. Our government has already done something. However, it doesn’t seem to work so well.
“Air pollution in China is doing harm to people’s health. The harm is much more serious than we can imagine,” said Chen Yuyu of Beijing University, one of researchers of this study.
Dirty air brings serious problems in North China. In January this year, the air pollution was worse than that in other places. That was caused by rising temperature and waste gas from coal heating.
Chinese government should strongly fight against air pollution. They should think of more proper ways to deal with the problem. People should be encouraged to take buses, ride bicycles or walk, instead of driving cars. The factories that pollute heavily should be closed.
“We need to improve our environment, although it might be expensive. Protecting our environment means protecting ourselves,” Li Hongbin, another researcher of the study said.

When Chinese people find out that someone comes from London, they often ask, "London is a foggy city, isn't it?" British people who visit China often say that London is not a foggy city at all! But if London is not foggy, do so many people in China think it is? In fact, London used to be a foggy city, it isn't any more.
In London lots of its pollution came factories, but a lot of it came from coal because people used it in their houses to keep warm during the winter. By the 1950s, London's air pollution had become so that the government decided to do something to clean up the air. A new rule was made. It said that was not allowed to burn coal in any British city. Just a few years the air became much cleaner.
Now many Chinese cities meet the same kind of with air pollution that London met forty or fifty years ago. However, this problem is more difficult for Chinese cities to . First, more of the pollution comes from big factories than from coal that people use in their houses. If these factories are suddenly closed, lots of people their jobs. Second, cleaner fuels(燃料) are quite expensive. However, the air in many cities is already slowly becoming cleaner, because the government and ordinary people are trying to make pollution less.
