Do you live in a city? Do you know how cities began?
Long long ago, there were only a few thousand people in the world. These people moved from place to place. They moved over the land, hunting animals for food.
No one knows how or where these people learned to grow food. But when they did, their lives changed. They did not have to look for food any longer. They could stay in one place and grow it. People began to live near one another. And so the first villages grew. Many people came to work in the villages. These villages grew very big.
When machines came along
(出现), life in the villages changed again. Factories were built. More and more people lived near the factories. The villages grew very big, and become cities.Today, some people are moving back to small towns. This is strange, isn't it?
