B [2015 •福州改編]

                  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 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 (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.

But after forty days without a fish,the boy's parents had told him that the old man was now salao, which is the worst form of unlucky,and the boy had gone with another boat which caught three good fish the first week.

His face was terribly brown because of the strong sunlight on the sea every day and his hands had the deep scars (傷癥) from dealing with heavy fish on the lines. But none of these scars were fresh.
