Introduction

A group called the RSF is fighting in Sudan. Many people are leaving their homes and going to Chad because it is not safe.

一個名為 RSF 的組織正在蘇丹進行戰鬥。由於環境不安全，許多人正離開家園前往乍得。

Main Body

The fighting started in April 2023. In June, the RSF attacked villages in North Darfur. They burned ten villages and stole things from shops. They also broke the water tanks. Now, thousands of people have no water and must move to Chad.

戰鬥始於 2023 年 4 月。6 月時，RSF 攻擊了北達富爾的村莊。他們燒毀了十個村莊並搶奪商店物品。他們還破壞了水箱。如今，數以千計的人沒有水可用，必須遷往乍得。

The RSF also uses drones. These drones kill animals and destroy water. One leader says the RSF wants to push people out of the land. The RSF does not answer these claims.

RSF 還使用了無人機。這些無人機殺死動物並破壞水源。一名領導者表示，RSF 想要將人們趕出這片土地。RSF 並未對這些指控做出回應。

In another area called White Nile State, a drone hit a gas station. Two people died and seven people were hurt. This is a big problem because this road is used to bring food and medicine to people who need help.

在另一個名為白尼羅州的地區，一架無人機擊中了加油站。造成兩人死亡、七人受傷。這是一個嚴重的問題，因為這條道路被用於將食物和藥品運送給需要幫助的人。

Conclusion

People in Sudan have no food, no water, and no safe homes. The situation is very bad near the border of Chad.

蘇丹民眾目前沒有食物、沒有水，也沒有安全的家園。乍得邊境附近的情況非常糟糕。

🛠️ The 'Action' Pattern

Look at these words from the text:

  • Burned
  • Stole
  • Broke
  • Hit

What is happening here? These are things that happened in the past. To tell a story about yesterday or last year, we change the action word.

Simple Guide: Present (Now) →\rightarrow Past (Then)

  • Burn →\rightarrow Burned
  • Steal →\rightarrow Stole
  • Break →\rightarrow Broke
  • Hit →\rightarrow Hit

📦 'No' and 'None'

In the story, the author says:

  • "People have no food"
  • "People have no water"

When you want to say something is missing, put no before the thing.

  • I have no money. →\rightarrow (I am poor)
  • The room has no windows. →\rightarrow (It is dark)

📍 Where things are

Notice how the text uses In and To:

  1. In + Place →\rightarrow In Sudan, In June (Location or Time)
  2. To + Place →\rightarrow Going to Chad, Move to Chad (Movement/Direction)
