Hello, boys and girls. As we all know, the earth is the only home of all creatures. Do you think it is beautiful? Yes, I agree with you. Can you name some places of interest in the world? Quite right. We have a lot of places of interest, the Great Wall, the West Lake, Zhangjiajie, Jiuzhaigou, Niagara Falls. Do you think it is necessary and important for man to protect the earth? Yes, of course. Have you ever thought that the earth is also very dirty, very ugly, I mean, not beautiful? Believe it or not, the earth is getting dirtier and dirtier. Look at the pictures on page 65, rivers have been polluted, rubbish is everywhere, factory chimneys have given off too much smoke causing lots of acid rain all over the wosrld, which has damaged not only crops, but also plants. Besides, men himself also have done a great deal of harm to the environment. Now, I’d like to ask you a few questions:

2. Silk Road once played an important part in foreign trade in China. But now it is covered with sand. What caused it?
