Leaders of the World Health Organization say they are concerned about the air quality and

health efiects on citizens during a recent outbreak of heavy pollution in Beijing．Still，they said they

were unsure of the exact amount the air pollution takes on any person's body，casting doubts on

local reports tying the area's dirty air to particular cases of illness．

Speaking at a briefing(情况介绍会)on Tuesday，the WHO's Western Pacific regional director，

November regarding an 8-year-old girl．

known as PM2.5 carry significant short-and long-term health risks，particularly with children．Other

With the tears streaming down her face，she put her two hands to her lips，and kissed them to Him; then clasped(紧握着)them on her breast，as if she laid his ruined head there．

“You are not the gaoler's(监狱长)daughter ?”

She sighed“No. ”

“Who are you ?”

Not yet trusting the tones of her voice，she sat down on the bench beside him．He drew back

but she laid her hand upon his arm．A strange thrill struck him when she did so, and visibly passed

of the action he went astray，and，with another deep sigh，fell to work at his shoemaking．
