One of the biggest problems is pollution. It affects our life in many ways. We see it, smell it and even hear it. The more people there are, the more pollution they cause. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land or the river got polluted in one place, people simply moved to another place. But today many people have nowhere else to go. much修饰比较级 影响 在许多方面 themore...., the more...,“越..越...”e get +过去分词，”变得被...” bring的过去分词，“带来” Culture Understanding Air pollution is bad for most of the living things in the world.
