Sometimes all the information you need about a subject is not included in what you hear. This is when you must draw a conclusion.1. Yet another tall building has been built in Shanghai.

Some parts of the world are becoming drier because the weather has changed. However, the actions of humans are making the problem of desertification much worse. People plant too much on the land without giving it a rest; too many animals all depend on the same land to eat; and people cut down trees for fuel and to make space for more farms.
