问题 In order to lessen pollution for the economic forum, Beijing and its neighbouring regions imposed tough emissions-reduction measures that greatly improved air quality and the phrase "APEC blue" was coined on social media to describe the clear sky that came with a heavy price tag. Some said that APEC also stands for "Air Pollution Eventually Controlled" while others defined "APEC Blue" as "something that is beautiful but transient, almost like an illusion. "
What is your opinion on the issue? Write an article in no less than 160 words on the answer sheet.

答案 In order to hold the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation meeting, the Chinese government has created a clear blue sky in Beijing. City residents have given it a name: "APEC Blue". Some said that APEC stands for "Air pollution Eventually Controlled" , while I agree with the opinion that the "APEC Blue" is just a transient illusion. A series of measures have been taken to reduce the Beijing smog during the APEC meeting, including limiting the number of cars, granting and suspending production in factories. However, all those measures are just a flash in the pan. A short-term change cannot get rid of the root of pollution. Perhaps we can learn from Britain in lessening pollution. In 1952, the Great Smog killed 4, 000 people in four days in London. After that, Britain passed its first air pollution act, which stipulated that all power plants should be shut down, factories must build taller chimneys, and the heating system must be improved in London. Without a long-term strategy, the "APEC Blue" will never be transformed into a permanent "Beijing Blue".
