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 times, 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 (微風(fēng))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(蒸發(fā)) 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(水汽) 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, this 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.The little stream ___________ before she got to the desert.

A. didn’t meet much difficulty B. was worried about herself

C. knew well about the desert D. was confident about herself

2.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

3. 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 difficulties in life just like the little stream.

I would like to talk to you about space vegetables, and to show you that space vegetables are healthy and good for you.

Space vegetables are grown from seeds(種子) that have been taken to and brought back from outer space. The seeds are affected by radiation and low gravity in outer space. When they are brought back to the Earth, these seeds produce vegetables that are bigger, healthier and more nutritious (有營養(yǎng)的)than normal vegetables. However, some people worry about eating space vegetables. They think that space vegetables might not be good for us and could give us cancer as a result of their exposure (暴露)to radiation in space. People should not be scared, as space vegetables are actually perfectly healthy.

Here are some facts that you should know about space vegetables:

Space vegetables are grown from seeds that are carefully selected. When seeds are brought back from space, they are tested to make sure that the vegetables they grow will be safe to eat. There are no traces of radiation after testing.

Space vegetables are better for you than normal vegetables. For example, space tomatoes stay fresh for twenty days, which is one week longer than normal tomatoes. Another popular space vegetable is the pepper(辣椒). Space peppers contain 20 per cent more Vitamin C than normal peppers.

After genetically modified(改進(jìn)的) foods come onto the market, people worry that they are eating unknown things. For example, if nut genes are put inside potatoes, people allergic(對...過敏) to nuts might get very sick from eating these potatoes because they do not know they are also eating nuts. Unlike genetically modified foods, space vegetables have not been genetically changed. This means that no new genes are put into the vegetables. Therefore, they won’t damage your health.
