In the hands f skilled artisans (手艺人), flur is made int lvely mdels f peple r animals t be enjyed and played with, which brings a unique kind f pleasure. This art frm is called dugh figurine (面塑). Amng the varius art styles f dugh figurines, Beijing’s Dugh Figurine Lang is a unique flk art, which is filled with the rich histry and custms f the capital city.

“On Earth, smething is always burning,” experts at the American space agency NASA said. They explain that a wildfire culd be started naturally by lightning. Hwever, smetimes peple using cntrlled burns t clear land fr farming can accidentally start a wildfire. Between 2003 and 2022, 85 percent f wildland fires in the U. S. were caused by human behavir. This includes leaving campfires burning, burning rubbish, thrwing lit cigarettes and starting a fire n purpse.
Wildfires can clear dead and dying plants t help new grwth. Hwever, wildfires create large amunts f smke which is dangerus t breathe. Wildfire smke cntains hundreds f chemical cmpunds. Smke frm burning huses and buildings cntains even mre txic chemicals. An increasing amunt f scientific research pints t pssible lng-term health damage frm breathing in very small particles (微粒) f smke. There are shrt-term issues as well. At-risk peple can be hspitalized and smetimes die frm smke.
Officials in the U. S. have been mving quickly t better prtect peple frm the harmful effects f wildfire smke. Hwever, they find it mre difficult t cmmunicate these dangers t peple wh live thusands f kilmeters frm the fires. Jeff Pierce is an atmspheric scientist.

If advised, avid utdr activities t reduce yur expsure t smke. Keep drs and windws clsed. Run an air filter t clean the inside air. Face cverings, r masks, can prtect against breathing in smke. As with COVID-19, the mst effective are N95 masks.
NASA satellite images shw that wildfires are nw burning n every cntinent. Large wildfires in Australia and the U. S. ften attract the wrld’s attentin. Dan Jaffe is a wildfire smke expert at the University f Washingtn. He said, “These fires are ging t be burning all summer. In terms f bad air quality, everywhere in the cuntry will be wrse than average this year.”

C．The effect f human actins n nature.D．The necessity f envirnmental prtectin.
29．What des the underlined wrd “txic” prbably mean?

Cnventinal weather bservatins are generally belw 5000 meters and rarely abve 5000 meters, and such high-altitude weather bservatins are scarce at the mment, Zha Huabia, a researcher at the Institute f Tibetan Plateau Research, said. “The reasn fr building a weather statin at 8800 meters instead f 8848 meters is that the snw and ice n the summit are nt suitable fr fixing equipment, and in this regard, the weather statin was built n bedrck arund 8800 meters which is easier,” said Zha.
The team reached the summit f Munt Qmlangma and used high-accuracy radar t measure the thickness f ice and snw, and cllected samples fr further research. Kang Shichang, a researcher f the Nrthwest Institute f Ec-Envirnment and Resurces under the Chinese Academy f Sciences, said studying the changes t the glacier aims t clarify the impact f glbal warming, which is beneficial t munting a glbal respnse t climate change. “Thrugh the study f glacier changes and glacier air pllutants, we can see the impact f glbal and reginal human activities in the Qmlangma area,” Kang said.

“On Earth, smething is always burning,” experts at the American space agency NASA said. They explain that a wildfire culd be started naturally by lightning. Hwever, smetimes peple using cntrlled burns t clear land fr farming can accidentally start a wildfire. Between 2003 and 2022, 85 percent f wildland fires in the U. S. were caused by human behavir. This includes leaving campfires burning, burning rubbish, thrwing lit cigarettes and starting a fire n purpse.
Wildfires can clear dead and dying plants t help new grwth. Hwever, wildfires create large amunts f smke which is dangerus t breathe. Wildfire smke cntains hundreds f chemical cmpunds. Smke frm burning huses and buildings cntains even mre txic chemicals. An increasing amunt f scientific research pints t pssible lng-term health damage frm breathing in very small particles (微粒) f smke. There are shrt-term issues as well. At-risk peple can be hspitalized and smetimes die frm smke.
Officials in the U. S. have been mving quickly t better prtect peple frm the harmful effects f wildfire smke. Hwever, they find it mre difficult t cmmunicate these dangers t peple wh live thusands f kilmeters frm the fires. Jeff Pierce is an atmspheric scientist. He said smke lses its dr (气味), but remains harmful even when it travels lng distances. A recent study fund that peple wh live clse t fires are mre likely t be prepared.
If advised, avid utdr activities t reduce yur expsure t smke. Keep drs and windws clsed. Run an air filter t clean the inside air. Face cverings, r masks, can prtect against breathing in smke. As with COVID-19, the mst effective are N95 masks.
NASA satellite images shw that wildfires are nw burning n every cntinent. Large wildfires in Australia and the U. S. ften attract the wrld’s attentin. Dan Jaffe is a wildfire smke expert at the University f Washingtn. He said, “These fires are ging t be burning all summer. In terms f bad air quality, everywhere in the cuntry will be wrse than average this year.”

Once again, China has cnquered the wrld’s highest peak, Munt Qmlangma, n May 4th, 2022. Thirteen members f the Chinese Earth Summit Missin 2022 scientific expeditin (探险) team successfully established an autmatic weather statin at an altitude f ver 8800 meters, the wrld’s highest f its kind, n Munt Qmlangma n the China-Nepal brder, achieving the milestne task f the cuntry’s secnd cmprehensive survey t the rf f the wrld.
T finish this missin, Ya Tandng, a leader f the expeditin, said they have rganized a massive party cnsisting f 16 teams and ver 270 researchers, sme f whm trained fr ver tw years fr the prject. Nw they have set up eight statins frm 5200 meters t 8800 meters n Munt Qmlangma, with fur statins higher than 7000 meters respectively at 7028 meters, 7790 meters, 8300 meters and 8800 meters. These weather statins at different altitudes mainly mnitr the temperature, relative humidity, wind directin, wind speed, pressure and radiatin changes in the regin, and can realize real-time remte transmissin (传输) f data.
Cnventinal weather bservatins are generally belw 5000 meters and rarely abve 5000 meters, and such high-altitude weather bservatins are scarce at the mment, Zha Huabia, a researcher at the Institute f Tibetan Plateau Research, said. “The reasn fr building a weather statin at 8800 meters instead f 8848 meters is that the snw and ice n the summit are nt suitable fr fixing equipment, and in this regard, the weather statin was built n bedrck arund 8800 meters which is easier,” said Zha.
The team reached the summit f Munt Qmlangma and used high-accuracy radar t measure the thickness f ice and snw, and cllected samples fr further research. Kang Shichang, a researcher f the Nrthwest Institute f Ec-Envirnment and Resurces under the Chinese Academy f Sciences, said studying the changes t the glacier aims t clarify the impact f glbal warming, which is beneficial t munting a glbal respnse t climate change. “Thrugh the study f glacier changes and glacier air pllutants, we can see the impact f glbal and reginal human activities in the Qmlangma area,” Kang said.
