Task: Story Composition
Input (English): Background Paragraph: Many chemicals that were once commonly used were later found out to be harmful to the environment , to human health, or both. The element lead was once a common additive to gasoline and to paint. Plumbing pipes were once typically made of lead. Only since the 1970s has the danger of lead become apparent. It causes brain damage and small children (who often chewed on objects painted with lead-based paint) are particularly susceptible. The use of lead in gasoline, paint, and plumbing pipes is now banned and new materials are being developed to replace the hazardous lead components.
Output (English): Tom and Bob grew up next to each other, but their houses were very different. Tom's childhood home was built in 1935 and had never been renovated since then, but Bob's home was built in 1994 and had been regularly updated to be more modern. They both enjoyed spending time at one another's houses because they seemed so different from their own home.
