50篇短文搞定GRE真题核心词（二十）

In the grip of a burgeoning recession, the prime, primitive town of Homogeneity faced a pervasive issue. Its foundation, built on geographic brilliance, was tainted by the excessive pollution from a corrupted local corporation. The harmful effects were exceptionally felt in the marginalized, flood-prone regions, exacerbating their struggles.

Among those eager to combat this corruption was Oliver, a local photographer, devoted to capturing the raw realism of his town. His originality in portraying the environmental degradation served as an exceptional example of visual activism. His images, a radical sequence of the town’s transformation, resonated deeply with the residents.

Independently, Oliver launched a program to raise awareness. His campaign refuse-d the regular narrative, highlighting the dire need for a change. He emphasized how the integrity of the town’s ecosystem was eagerly being compromised by the corrupted corporation. His interactions with the townsfolk persistently revolved around illustrating this stark reality.

His work was not without resistance. Skeptics interpreted his efforts as an overly eager attempt to draw attention elsewhere, possibly seeking personal fame. However, Oliver remained undeterred. He knew that his efforts were a cornerstone for the independence of his town from such exploitation. His commitment to this cause set an important precedent, reminding us of the powerful role individuals can play in combating systemic corruption.
