What brings about changes?
Look and share
1.How are these two photos different?
2.How has this place changed over time?
3.Why do you think this place changed so much?
The first photo shows a bare(光秃秃的)and open land with only one tree. The second photo shows the same place now, with green grass, many trees, and a clear river.
The place used to be dry and empty. Now, it is full of life. The land has become greener, there are more plants, and the river flows through the area.
I think people worked hard to protect the environment. They planted many trees, took care of the land, and saved water. These efforts helped the place become green and beautiful again.
