Noted: transformed into
and
converted into
: this means to
change something.
We
cannot say “the apartment was transformed into the factory” We
cannot say “the trees were transformed into the airport”, we
cannot change a tree into an airport. Instead, we can say “the trees were chopped down and replaced with the airport.” We
only can use transformed into
and
converted into
when we are
talking
about an area
.
Ex: the park was transformed into the airport (because
a park is an area of
land
)

We can transform a rural area into an urban area. The neighborhood was transformed completely. The old houses were rebuilt. Very few trees remained. Trees were chopped down/ uprooted/ cleared/ cleared away. The area was removed, but remained vacant/ remained undeveloped. ARTICLE: We use
“a”
for
new
, and
“the”
for
old
Ex: in the south, the residential area was replaced by a warehouse (it’s new). In the north, the residential area was removed to make way for the development of a stadium (it’s new). Don’t say “
the left/right side of town
”. But
it’s ok for you to say “
on the
left/right side of the map
”

MAP SAMPLE The maps show changes that took place in Youngsville in New Zealand over a 25 year period from 1980 to 2005. ANSWER: The maps
illustrate
the developments
which took place in
the coastal town of
Youngsville
between 1980 and 2005
.
Overall
, a comparison of the two maps
reveals a complete transformation
from
a largely rural
to
a mainly urban area.
In the year 1980
, the town was
a much greener residential area with a large
number of trees
and individual houses, but
during the next 25 years
, the town
saw a number of significant changes
.
The most noticeable is that
all of the
trees in the south of the River Alanah
were
chopped down
, with all the
houses along the railway line
being demolished to make way for
skyscrapers.
Moreover, a new industrial zone with warehouses and factories
sprang up
around the school and airport.
In contrast
,
only a few trees
in the north of the river
remained
. The woodland
was cleared
and
converted into
a golf course, a park, and car parting facilities.
Further developments were
the construction of a stadium
next to
the north-
east corner of the lake and the extension of the railway line from the river
running directly to the north. A Marina was also constructed at the mouth of
the river.
