1.The wasted gas from factories burning material goes into air, and becomes SO2 combined with Oxygen. Then it turns into sulfuric acid mixing with water in the sky. When sulfuric acid falls down to the earth, acid rain is formed.
2.The wasted gas from factories is the biggest sources of SO2. Because in order to produce energy, factory workers burn fuel that will make emission contained with sulfur. As long as the wasted gas is mixed with oxygen, it will become SO2.
3.SO2 is one of the harmful gas that can affect people’s breathing or make people feel uncomfortable with their eyes, so there are always tears in eyes. Moreover, SO2 can turn into acid rain gradually. The acid rain will damage the forests and soil on the earth and increase acid in water.
4.Trees in the urban forest firstly are able to reduce and prevent pollution by the way of absorbing polluting gas and breaking it down into other harmless chemicals. Secondly Trees can make urban area stay cooler with their valuable shade. In this case, trees can also help to save money, since the urban area can stay cooler with them, so residents are able to lower their air conditioning bill.

1. Firstly, because of factories burning, sulfur released into air. Secondly, sulfur mix oxygen to be SO2 in the air. Thirdly, SO2 rise into window and mix other gas. Finally, acid rain formed.
2. As I listened in the class, one of the biggest sources of SO2 is burning present fuel, such as oil and coal. When this fuel burned, it will release sulfur and some harmful gas. Then those harmful gas will mix the oxygen in the air and be a harmful mixture. Next, mixture will threaten this world.
3. SO2 is a harmful gas, and it could affect people’s body functions. Because of influence of SO2, people will feel difficult to breathe and to be watering eyes. Sometimes, people feel uncomfortable with their nose and throat. In addition, acid rain formed by SO2, and the acid rain could damage forest, influence the water so make fish can’t live in the water and increase accident problem.
4. In the urban forest, the trees provides a lot of benefits to us. Firstly, trees prevent air pollution, which is trees could absorb pollution gases and reduce existing pollution. Secondly, everyone known that greenhouse, but trees could reducing high temperature. Lastly, it could provide valuable shade.

Answers:
1. First, factory emitted sulfur and it combined with oxygen to formed sulfur dioxide. Then, sulfur dioxide with the water in the cloud formed sulfuric acid. In addition, sulfuric acid added other gases in the cloud formed sulfate. When the sulfuric rains with water, it formed acid rain.
2. One of the biggest sources of SO2 is fuel. The reason is that people burning oil or coal for energy. However, there are many SO2 present in it and be emitted into the air.
3. One effect of SO2 for people is that make people have breathing problem. Another one is affect people have watering eyes. First effect of SO2 is that it will damage forests. The other one is SO2 will increases the acid in water.
4. There are three benefits of trees in urban forest. First is that it can help people by reduce existing pollution. Second one is trees can help people to use less energy. All in all, trees can help people to save money.

1. The factories burn coal to emit this waste gas into air and this gas is mixed with oxygen to form SO2. Then SO2 is mixed with water that is in the cloud in the sky. Then sulfuric acid falls down to the ground, acid rain is formed.
2. One of the biggest sources of SO2 is factories burn coal to emit noxious gas. This is because that we need all kinds of energy to support our daily life. The most effective method is burning coal. We use burning coal to get electric power. The factories merely consider we need electric power, but they ignore those noxious gas. They just directly emit into the sky. These gas is mixed with oxygen. Eventually it is formed SO2.
3. There are two ways that SO2 affects people. The first is it can affects people's breathing. The second is it can affects people's eyes. It means people's eyes will be uncomfortable or crying. There are two ways that SO2 affects nature. The first is it will damage to forests and soil. The second is it will increase acid in water. For instance, fish can not live in water.
4. In the urban, trees can reduce pollution. First, trees can absorb polluting gases. Then it can break down these harmful gases. Secondly, tress can help city more cooler. It can provide shade for people in the city. Now there are many big cities have forest programs. Trees can use air conditions to help people to save money. They need not to pay more electrical bills.

1. The acid rain is caused by a chemical reaction. The material from factories, such as oil and coal, are burnt to produce sulfur. Then, sulfur mixes with Oxygen in the air producing SO2, that interact with other gas become the acid rain. It is dangerous to our health, environment, land and water.
2.Basically the wasted gas of factories is the biggest sources of SO2. Because, the fuels such as oil and coal are burnt to produce sulfur. Sulfur mixed Oxygen in the air, creating a chemical reaction and producing SO2.
3.SO2 have bad effects both our health and environment. Firstly, health problem caused by air pollution. For example, it caused breathing problem, watering eyes, burning nose and throat. On the other hand, it damaged to forest and soil, increased acid rain and affected every living thing, such as fish can't live in water.
4. The first benefit of trees can reduce existing pollution due to absorbing carbon dioxide and release oxygen. Trees also can purify air. The second is good for economic, saving money. Because trees can reduce high temperature in general due to their valuable shade. Planting trees around the house normally we less use air-condition.

1.The acid rain is caused by a Chemical pollution. The many factory use
chemical materials to make products and get energy by burn fossil fuels，it caused many SO2, and SO2 in the air will produce acid rain. It is dangerous to our health and water and land.
2.I think it is many factory use fossil fuels to get power and After this combustion it will have so much SO2.Such as the Sulfur mixed Oxygen in the air, it can got SO2.
3.SO2 is very big problem and effects both our health and environment. the first of all is people health problem cause by air pollution. It can cause breathing problem, watering eyes, burning nose and throat. Also it can kill vegetations and animals.
4. The trees can give us many good benefit, the first is protection of the environment and good economic benefits for people, second is it can purifying air and keep air-condition.Last one is trees can reduce global warming it is very important for our Earth.

1. At first some factory burned the sulfur and sulfur always can produce some waste gas. Then this waste gas released in to air and mix with oxygen in the air. Next, the acid rain is formed.
2. Actually, one of the biggest sources of SO2 is waste gas. For example, some heavy industry factories in older to make the machine, they need lots of energy to sustain it. Therefore, those factories burn much different kind of fuels, like oil and coal. These fuels formed waste gas and the gas mix oxygen will be formed SO2
3. Basically, SO2 have lots of negative effects on our body and environment. On the one hand, it can effects our body such as we are difficult to breathe, watering eyes also can burning our nose and throat. On the other hand, it can effects our environment like damage our forest, increase acid in water and most fish can not live in water.
4. Trees in the urban forest have lots of benefits. The most important is the trees can reduce the existing pollution because they can purify air that means urban forest can make the air cleaner; it is very health for citizen. They also can helpful preventing pollution from occurring and reduce the high temperature.

1. First, factory put out sulfur and it mixes with oxygen to form the sulfur dioxide. Next, the sulfur dioxide mixes with water in the cloud. Finally, it causes the Acid Rain.
2. One of the biggest sources of SO2 is fuel. For example, like oil and coal. People burned them and get the power, but it emits lots of sulfur.
3. The first way that SO2 affects people is it can cause people difficulty to breathe. The second one is making people get water eye. The two ways about the SO2 affects the nature are it damages the forests. The second one is fish cannot live in water. .
4. There have some benefits of trees in the urban forest. The first one is it saves money. Next benefits are trees absorb polluting gasses. The third one is trees reduce existing pollution and also the trees reduce the temperatures.

1. First, sulfur is released from factories that burns fuel. Then, this sulfur become gas called SO2 when it mix with oxygen in the air. SO2 rises and mix with water in cloud and become sulfuric acid. It mix with other gases from the air and become sulfate then falls to the ground with rain. It is called acid rain.
2. Biggest source is sulfur from factory. It is because sulfur is the basic cause that make SO2. Without sulfur from the factory, SO2 will not created and there will be no acid rain.
3. To people, SO2 causes health problem. It causes breath problem, watery eyes, and burning noses and throat. To environment, It damage forest, increase acid level in water(ocean, lake, stream, etc).
4. There are two main things that urban forest do. First, it absorb pollutants and break them down to less harmful gas. Second, It help city stay cooler. Three well-placed trees can reduce 50 percent of air conditioner use.
