Flow like the river of change
Little stream ran down from a high mountain through many villages and forests. Then it reached a desert. “I went through so many difficulties. I should have no problem crossing the desert,” she thought. As she started, she found herself slowly disappearing into the sand. After many tries, she still failed. “Maybe I can’t reach the ocean,’’ she said sadly to herself.
At this time, a deep voice said, “If a breeze(微风)can cross the desert, so can a river.” It was the voice of the desert. But the little stream answered, ‘‘That’s because a breeze can fly, but I cannot.”
“That’s because you can’t give up what you are. Let yourself evaporate(蒸发)into the breeze, and it can take you across,” said the desert. “Give up what I am now? No! No!” The little stream could not accept this idea. “The breeze can carry the vapor(蒸汽)across the desert and let it leave as rain. The rain will form a river again,” said the desert. “And whether you’re a river or vapor, your nature never changes.” Hearing this, the little stream went into the open arms of the breeze. It carried her to the next stage of her life.
The course of our lives is like the experience of the little stream. If you want to go through difficulties in your life to head for success, you should also change the way you are.

A. the forest B. the ocean
C. the desert D. the river
【2】The little stream _____ before she got to the desert.
A. didn’t meet much difficulty

C. knew well about the desert
D. was confident about herself
【3】At first, the little stream didn’t accept the desert’s advice because _____.
A. she failed many times
B. she was afraid of the breeze
C. she wasn’t able to fly
D. she wouldn’t give up what she was
【4】The little stream finally crossed the desert by _____.
A. evaporating into the breeze
B. forming a river
C. disappearing into the sand
D. changing her nature
【5】What does the story mainly tell us?
A. The road to success is not always easy and smooth.
B. Whatever others say, we should always be ourselves.
C. To succeed, we should change the way we are if necessary.
D. We may experience difficulty in life just like the little stream.
