Question

While smog（霧霾）is a problem in many of the world’s cities, few have it as bad as china. Most of last year, the air around Beijing was polluted. And the people of Harbin, in Northeast China, have not had it easy either. On days in winter, when air was really dirty, people couldn’t even see across streets and airplanes have a hard time landing.

The problem is so serious that it has caused different ways to deal with the smog. The most usual way is wearing face mask（口罩）that almost no city people leaves home without them. There are also different kinds of air purifiers（凈化器）. Scientists are trying to clean the air using artificial(人工的) rain.

The best way to control smog would be cutting emissions（排放）. The government of China decided to do something to fight against the pollution that is becoming a serious health problem for its people. They have shut down some factories. They stop cars from going into cities like Beijing, on days when there is much smog. They have also planned to spend as much as 3 trillion yuan fighting against smog.

But the fact is that is not effective enough to stop the smog and allow people to experience a bright sun. The right thing officials should do is: clean up China’s cities the old way — By cutting down emissions.
