三、回答问题(本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分)
Every year, wildfires(野火) destroy much forest land.Homes are broken down, and thousands of people die.Smokejumpers are helping to stop this.
Smokejumpers are a special kind of firefighter.They jump from planes into areas that are difficult to reach by car or on foot, like the middle of a mountain forest.The idea of jumping out of planes to fight wildfires first came up in the 1930s and became popular in the 1940s.
At a fire site, smokejumpers first examine the land and decide how to fight the fire.Their main goal is to stop fire from spreading.Using basic tools, smokejumpers clear burnable(可燃的) materials like plants and other dry materials.They carry water with them too, but not much.
Although most smokejumpers are men, more women are joining.The most important things are the weight and height.Smokejumpers in the US, for example, must be 54 to 91 kilograms, so they won't get hurt when they land or get blown by strong winds.
Smokejumpers must be able to live in the wilderness(荒野).In Russia, many smokejumpers know how to find food in the forest and even make simple furniture from trees.
The work is dangerous, and the hours are long.But for these firefighters, it isn't just a job.They love being able to jump out of planes, fight fires, and live in the forest.As a 28 year old Russian smokejumper, Alexi Tishin says, “This is the best job for the strong and brave people.”
