Temperatures are rising in Sichuan's quake-hit areas. And it's becoming increasingly difficult for survivors living in tents where the mercury can hit 40 degrees Celsius during the hottest time of the day. As CCTV reporter Gui Xiaozeng explains, the authorities are speeding up the construction of mobile homes so that people made homeless by the quake will soon be able to move out of the sweltering tents.
