25、Every year, wildfires destroy millions of square kilometres of forest land. Homes are burned. Homes and thousands of people die. Smoke jumpers help to stop this.
Smoke jumpers are a special type of firefighter. They jump from planes or are lowered by planes into areas that are difficult to reach by car or on foot, such as the middle of a mountain forest. They race to put out fires as fast as they can.
At a fire place, smoke jumpers first check the land and decide how to fight the fire. Their main goal is to stop a fire from spreading or to slow its progress until full, ground-based firefighters arrive. Using basic tools such as shovels and axes, smoke jumpers clear land of burnable material, like dry grass and dead trees. They carry water with them, too, but only a limited amount.
Although the majority of smoke jumpers are men, more women are joining now. The most important reasons are your height and weight. Smoke jumpers employed in the United States, for example, must be between 120 and 200 pounds (between 54 and 91 kilograms) so they don’t get blown away by the strong winds or get hurt when they land. Smoke jumpers must also be capable of surviving in the wilderness. In Russia, many smoke jumpers know how to find food in the forest and can even make simple furniture from trees.
The work is dangerous, and the hours are long. But for these firefighters, smoke jumping isn’t just a job. They love being able to jump out of planes, fight fires, and live in the forest. A 28-year-old Russian smoke jumper Alexi Tishin says, “This is the best job for tough guys.”

A.wait for ground-based firefighters
B.look for some water to put out the fire

D.make some simple furniture
【3】Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A.Smoke jumpers put out fires in areas that are hard to reach.
B.Smoke jumpers must learn to survive in the wild.
