29、I am the Earth．Once I was in good health，but now I feel quite uncomfortable．

Yesterday I went to see Doctor Moon．She asked me，“What's wrong with you，Mr. Earth?”

I told her，“My children--the people--have destroyed the ozone（臭氧），so the sunshine is too strong．Now I have a high fever．Many trees have died．The dust（灰）always gets into my eyes．I smell the waste gas of cars every day．I can't take in clean air．I often suffer from earache，because I hear loud noises all the time．”

“Oh，Mr. Earth，” said the Moon，“Your illness is so serious．You must have a good rest and drink a lot of water every day．”

“That’s fine，but it often rains acid rain（酸雨），so I have no clean water to drink at all．” I replied．

“That's terrible! I'm very sorry，but I can't help you．” The Moon was very sad．

Oh，dear! What can I do? Who can save me?
