In the past, Jack's hometown was a paradise with clear rivers and green mountains. Birds sang in forests while children played in open spaces. But everything changed when factories were built in the
northern

used

environment

Jack decided to
improve

impossible

Jack's mother organized women to clean the block around the ancient temple. "We must c

returned

since
9 my childhood!" Everyone cheered when a butterfly landed on Jack's shoulder.
