①No one knows exactly how the earth began. ②According to a widely accepted theory, the univer began with a “Big Bang”. The earth exploded loudly and produced water vapor and other gas, making the earth's atmosphere. As the earth cooled down, water appeared and stayed on the surface. It was the prence of water that allowed the earth to dissolve harmful gas and acids into the oceans and as, which made it possible for life to develop. First, the appearance of small plants encouraged the development of earl
y shellfish and all sorts of fish. Next, green plants began to grow on land, which were followed by land animals. So reptiles appeared for the first time. Later, dinosaurs developed. However, they suddenly disappeared. After that, mammals came into being. Finally, humans appeared and spread all over the earth. However, they are putting too much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, making the earth too hot to live on. ③So, whether life will continue on the earth will depend on whether this problem can be solved.
