　　Every time you turn on the television or take a ride in a car ,you could be adding to a problem called acid rain(酸雨)．In this article, you’ll learn how acid is created, and how it affects us, and more importantly, what we all can do to prevent it．

　　When people use fuels(燃料), such as coal and gasoline, poisonous gases are give off．When these gases mix with rain, acid rain forms．Many power stations burn fuels in order to creat the electricity(电)that we use in our homes and offices every day．Cars and trucks also send these gases into the air when they burn gasoline．When rain mixes with these gases, harmful things called acids form．This is acid rain．

　　Acid rain damages(毁坏)everything that it touches．It poisons our rivers, ponds, lakes, and oceans along with all the life in them．It pollutes our soil and crops, harms trees, and can even kill fish and plants．Acid rain also eats away at buildings．

　　We need to cut down on the pollution that gets into our air．Turn off lights, television, and other electrical appliances if you are not using them, Walk or take a bike whenever possible．If you are travelling a long distance, take a bus or train to save fuel．

　　As research shows, acid rain harms our environment．But people everywhere can take small steps now to help protect our environment for future generations．

　　When I was growing up, I had an old neighbor, Dr．Gibbs．He didn’t look like any 　　1　　 I 　　2　　．He never invited us to play in his yard, but he was a very 　　3　　 person．

　　When Dr．Gibbs wasn’t saving lives, he was planting trees．He owned a large field and wanted to make it a forest．

　　The good doctor had some interesting ideas about planting trees．He never watered his new trees．Once I asked why．He said that watering plants spoiled them, and that if you 　　4　　 them, each baby tree would grow weaker and weaker, so you had to make things difficult for them and 　　5　　 the weaker trees early．

　　He talked about how watered trees grew shallow(浅的)roots, and how trees that weren’t watered had to grow deep roots in search of water 　　6　　 the earth by themselves．　　7　　 roots were very important．

　　So he never watered his trees．He'd planted an oak and, 　　8　　 watering it every morning, he'd beat it with a rolled-up newspaper．I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the tree's attention．

　　Dr．Gibbs died several years 　　9　　 I left home．Every now and then, I walked by his house and looked at the trees 　　10　　 I watched him 　　11　　 about twenty-five years ago．They’re very big and strong now．I planted some trees a few years later and carried water to them for a whole summer．After two years of 　　12　　 too much, whenever a cold wind blows in, they 　　13　　 a lot．

　　Every night before I go to bed, I check on my two sons．Mostly I pray(祈祷)that their lives will be easy．But lately I've been thinking that it's time to change my prayer．I know my children are going to face difficulties．There's always a cold wind 　　14　　 somewhere, so 　　15　　 we need to do is to pray for roots that reach deep into the brave heart, so when the rains fall and the winds blow, we can face it strongly and won't be beaten down．
