Question by : can u please explain to me what I have to do here?
The Chinese government is constructing the largest dam ever built in an effort to control the Yangtze River.  In at least 5 paragraphs I want you to give details about this dam and what kind of impact it will have on China and possibly even the world. You should include information about the structure itself, the positive and negative results of building the Three Gorges Dam and possibly your opinion on the matter which should be supported with reasons why. Lesson 20 goes into more information about this “dam project” ha ha ha.  (Terrible I know.)

IF U CAN GIVE AN EXAMPLE

Come on, think what they’re asking.

Research the dam, it’s called the Three gorges dam – everything you need is on the internet, use your initiative.
