       The World Wide Web (WWW万维网) turned 25 years old on March 12th. It has become a very important part in our daily lives. We can't imagine living without the web,the short form of the World Wide Web.

       In 1989,a British engineer named Tim Berners-Lee came up with the idea of the Web. It is a group of “pages” of information that are connected to each other around the world. That is the very beginning of the Web. Since then,the Web has greatly changed the way people live. With a click (点击) of a mouse we can read news,buy things,make friends and learn anything we’re interested in.

      Now,25  years after its birth,how will the Web influence life in the future? Scientists believe there are both advantages and disadvantages.

      A growing Web will help build “better relationships” between different cultures. Also in the future,everyday items could be connected to the Web. We could share plenty of information to make our daily lives more convenient (方便的) . So one day in the future,your front door could send you a message. “Dear sir,everyone has left the house,but I'm still open!”

      But scientists warn (警告) us that if we share personal information on the Internet it could get into the wrong hands.

     “It's not wise to spend a whole day in front of the screen. People need to get close to nature and enjoy the sun. Never be controlled by the Internet. ” said Berners-Lee.

                  Flow like the river of change

       Little stream ran down from a liigh 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.
