It is little wonder that they went land-mad,because there was so much of it.They cut and burned the forests to make room for crops; they abandoned their knowledge of kindness to the land in order to maintain its usefulness.When they had cropped out a piece they moved on,raping the country like invaders.The topsoil,held by roots and freshened by leaf-fall,was left helpless to the spring freshets,stripped and eroded with the naked bones of clay and rock exposed.The destruction of the forests changed the rainfall,for the searching clouds could find no green and beckoning woods to draw them on and milk them.The merciless nineteenth century was like a hostile expedition for loot that seemed limitless.Uncountable buffalo were killed,stripped of their hides,and left to rot,a reservoir of permanent food supply eliminated.More than that,the land of the Great Plains was robed of the manure of the herds.急求这段的paraphrase?用英文
there seemed to be a limitless supply of land, so much so that people exploited the land without any sense of care and economy. they cut down the trees and planted crops instead. this deforestration made the soil more susceptible to erosion. and in rainy season, without the protection of the tree roots, the top soil was stripped away, and clay and rock which is useless to human beings in respect ofcultivation were exposed.the destruction of the forest , in turn, changed the local climate.
during nineteenth century, all these kinds of destruction happened continuously. forest was destroyed;numerous buffalo were killed, which resulted in the disappearance of a food supply and the soil's turning from rich to lean because of the removal of animals' manure.
