A little stream (小溪) 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.
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 can't."
"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 (本性) never changes."
Hearing this, the little stream went into the open arms of the breeze. It carried her to the next stage (阶段) of her life.

Smartphones with cameras that can take selfies have become popular. We can now take a selfie every
moment of our life and then share it with the world through the Internet. However,some people believe that
taking a selfie is causing people great danger and sometimes it even leads to death!
Though the problem of taking selfies has been known for a while, it is becoming worse and has to be dealt with, following the death of Frank, who was trying to take a selfie with his friend when they fell off some stairs. His friend only broke his leg while Frank died in the accident. It was also reported that three Indian students were run over by a passing train while they were taking a selfie on the railway.
More and more accidents are forcing(迫使)some governments to deal with the problem.In July,the Russian government began a programme which didn't allow visitors to use the selfie stick. Many museums and theme parks didn't allow visitors to use the selfie stick either.
Although these ways may help reduce selfie-connected accidents,the only way to stop the accidents is that everyone takes them seriously. So when we decide to take a selfie that seems dangerous, be sure to stop.
85.What happened to the three Indian students while they were taking a selfie
86.Why did the Russian government stop people from using the selfie stick
87.Do you like taking selfies Why or why not
