　　School education is important and useful(有用的)．Yet no one can learn everything at school and a teacher can't teach his students everything they want to know．His job is to show his students how to learn．He teaches them how to read and how to think．So much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves．

　　It is always more important to know how to study by oneself(自学)．It is quite easy to learn something,but it's difficult to use it to solve(解决) problems．Great inventors(发明家)do not get everything from school,but they can still invent(发明)many things and change the world a lot．

　　How can the inventors do all of this?One of the answers is：they know how to study．A lot of things are not learnt in the classroom．They get a lot of knowledge(知识) by reading outside school．They work hard and never give up(放弃) all their lives．

　　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．
