This causes breathing problems like asthma().It can also make heart conditions worse.The elderly and children are especially at risk. 5 To deal with this problem,countries are working together.The UN has named July 12 as the "International Day of 2 Combating()Sand and Dust Storms.China has played an important part through projects like the Three-North Shelter Belt Program(三北防护林工)to fight against the sandstorm. 6For individuals(),experts suggest staying indoors during sandstorms.If you must go out,wear an N95 mask. These can help keep you safe. 5.Which of the following shows the correct order of how a sandstorm forms according to paragraph2?

A.The strong winds from Siberia. B.The higher temperatures C.The dry ground. D.The loss of water in the soil 7.Which of the following statements would the author most likely agree with? A.Air pollution caused by sandstorms appears in a few cities. B.During sandstorms,children and the elderly have more chances to have asthma(). C.Planting more trees is the best way to deal with sandstorms. D.If people wear N95 masks,sandstorms can not affect people's health. 8.What is the best structure of the passage?
