Understanding Concrete Nouns in a Dystopian Future
In the crumbling city of Neo-Haven, the streets echoed with the clang of metal and the distant hum of machinery. The air was thick with dust and the scent of burned rubber. Amidst the ruins, towering skyscrapers made of glass and steel stood as remnants of a once-thriving civilization. Citizens carried backpacks filled with supplies, and their eyes scanned for any sign of movement. The underground market was bustling with vendors selling glowing crystals, rusted tools, and mechanical parts. Outside, the abandoned vehicles lay scattered, their tires deflated and bodies corroded by time.
