Almost a seventh of China has been under heavy smog. The air pollution in 20 cities has reached the “danger level”. China is not alone, however. Many countries have the same situation. The air pollution is a problem from which we can't hide.
The United States
Since the beginning of the 19th century, America has had trouble with environmental problems, air pollution in particular. Almost 60 percent of Americans live in areas, where air pollution has reached unhealthy levels. It can make people sick.
The US created the Environmental Protection Agency in 1970 and passed the Clean Air Act. Now the air all over the country is much cleaner, especially compared to ten years ago.
London
Yellow?grey smog was a frequent visitor to London in the 1950s and got the name “London fog”. The heaviest, which shocked the world, was in 1952. Because of cold weather and windless conditions, polluted air covered the city. People could see something around them only in a few meters and about 4,000 people died. In 1956, London passed the Clean Air Act. It largely reduced air pollution.
New Delhi
Because New Delhi is developing fast, its air quality is even worse than that of Chinese cities. New Delhi has done little to improve air quality in recent years. However, the city government made a few changes more than 10 years ago. They moved industry out of the city, built a subway and improved public transport.

China is a country with a long history. It has great traditional culture, especially Chinese characters. Chinese characters usually have more than one meaning and some of them are very interesting. Here are six ones. We use “pinyin” here because “pinyin” is the Chinese spelling way for the characters. For example, “fu” is the “pinyin” for good luck in Chinese. “pinyin” “fu” is only the phonic part of the character and if you want to know the meaning of good luck “fu”, you must read Chinese character 福 because “fu” also represents(代表) other Chinese characters that sound the same.
“fu” means blessing, good fortune, good luck. Chinese_____“fu” is one of the most popular ones used during Chinese New Year. Chinese people often put up “fu” upside down on the front door of a house or an apartment. The upside down “fu” means good luck comes since the character for upside down in Chinese sounds the same as the character for “come”.
“l(fā)u” is used to mean official’s a pay in old China. “shou” means long life, age or birthday. “xi” is happiness, The doubled character “xi” means double happiness. It is usually put up everywhere at Chinese weddings. “cai” is weath or money. Chinese often say “ money can make a ghost turn a millstone”. It is to say money really can do a lot of things. But, money can’t buy everything. “he” is an important part of Chinese culture. It means good relations with other people, when you have “he”, things will be a lot easier for you.
