2.          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.

1.Do you enjoy visiting a museum?Did you ever make a plan before a visit?Every museum must have something that attracts you.And there are many possible ways to enjoy yourself in a museum.
If you follow these steps below,you'll know what is worth seeing and doing,so that you can make the most of your time at the museum.
Decide what museum you will visit.There are so many different kinds of museums and you first need to find one that you like.It's easy for you to choose one and start an enjoyable visit!
Do some research online.Every museum now has a website which allows you to look through the information about it.On the website,you may look for such things as:
•The exhibits(展品)-See what is on show at the museum at all times,and what special exhibitions are held for a short time.
•The history of the museum-There will often be very interesting stories about the exhibits and the benefactors(捐赠者).That can make your visit more interesting.
•Activities-See whether there are talks,tours our special activities on the day when you visit.Many museums hold some activities that meet the interests of all age groups.
•Cost,food or shortage-It's important how much the visit will cost.You have to decide whether or not you can eat there.You might also need to find out transportation needs,as well as storage for coats,bags etc.
Learn at least one thing on your visit.It is always good to take away something new from your visit.
Plan breaks into your visit.When you walk around,standing here and studying exhibits there,you may become very tired.So it is important to take breaks.A break is a good opportunity for you to think of what you have seen and what else you might wat to do in museum.
Take a friend or two.Visiting museums is always a lot more fun when you are with someone else.You can talk over what you're seeing.A friend also brings another way of thinking when you talk about the exhibit.
