Because water allowed the earth to dissolve harmful gases into oceans and seas, which made it possible to develop life.Task3: Read para(4-5) and put the development of life in time order.(tips:Find out and underline key phrases which can show a time line, such as .later,.ago)Stage2: The development of the life (para4-5)Manymillionsofyearslater,thefirstextremelysmallplantsbegantoappearonthesurfaceofthewater.
