Our factories and homes burn coal and oil. Every year we have forest fires somewhere. Many scientists believe that the weather is changing.
The earth will perhaps be warmed by about 7℃ at the South Pole(极) and the North Pole. The ice will be melt(融化). The sea level(平面) will rise by about 7 meters. As a result, water will cover cities like London, Tokyo and New York. Some ports(港口) and towns along the coasts will disappear under water.
Some other scientists think that the dust, smoke and pollution from coal, wood and oil fires will block out(封闭) the ultraviolet rays(紫外线). Then the earth will become colder and great sheets of ice will cover Europe and North America.
When chemicals in the air mix with rain, we have acid(酸) rain. Acid rain can bring us great harm. It destroys(破坏) forests and kills life in lakes and rivers.
People are beginning to see how serious the problem is. They find it important to work with nature instead of against it. They are trying to save the earth in many different ways. But one of the most important things to do is to make people understand that saving the earth is saving ourselves.

A man often traveled around and he couldn’t buy the seat tickets on the train for his most tours.But he could always find a seat to sit on. His workmates asked him how he could find the seats by accident. “The method is very simple,just your patience.”smiled the man. His workmates were puzzled.
One day, one of his workmates was on business with him.The train car was so crowed that they couldn’t even find a place to stand on. “Let’s find seats to sit on,” said the man. “Find seats? Just a joke?” said his workmate.”Just follow me,” said the man.
They pushed their way through the crowds.The workmate wanted to give up , but the man insisted (坚持). At last,in the 7th car they found two empty seats .They sat there happily at once. The workmate asked,“How do you know there are seats here?”The man answered ,“I didn’t know it at all.But I know most of the passengers are easily cheated by one or two cars of crowed phenomena（现象）. Even though they know there are seats, they don’t want to crowd among the groups.They think it’s not worth doing that.”
The method seemed not to be clever enough,but it works. For us, patience will let us have a “seat ticket”life forever.
