Public transport教案
as the drought lasted into the fall, the part got worse every month. the rubbish piled up or blew across the brown grass. soon the only people in the park were beggars and other people down on their luck. people said drugs were being sold or traded there now. the part had gotten scary, and my mother told us kids not to go there anymore.
the drought finally ended and things seemed to get back to normal, that is, everything but the park. it had gotten into such bad shape that the city just let it stay that way. then about six months ago i heard that the city was going to “redevelop” certain worn-out areas of the city. it turned out that the city had planned to get rid of the park, sell the land and let someone build rows of apartment buildings on it.
the chain-link fencing and bulldozers did their work. now we live across the street from six rows of apartment building. each of them is three units high and stretches a block in each direction. the neighborhood has changed without the park. the streets i used to play in are jammed with cars now. things will never be the same again. sometimes i wonder, though, what changes another drought would make in the way things are today.
