Do you live in a city? Do you know how cities began? Long long ago, there were only a few thousand people in the world. These people moved from place to place. They moved over the land, hunting(打猎)animals for food.
A long time passed. These people began growing crops. No one knows how or when those people learned about growing food. But when they did, their lives changed, they did not have to move houses any more.
They could stay in one place and grow it. People began to live near each other. And so the first villages grew. Many people came to work in the villages. These villages grew bigger and bigger.
