六、阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题后面的词数要求)。
There was once a little river. She ran toward the sea slowly and quietly. On the way, she came across stormy winds and rocky areas, but she never gave up.
One day, she reached a desert(沙漠). “I went through so many difficulties. I should have no problem crossing the desert,” she thought. As she continued, she found herself slowly disappearing into the sand. After many tries, she still failed. “Maybe I can't reach the sea,” she said sadly to herself.
At this time, the desert said, “If wind can cross me, so can a river.” But the little river answered, “That's because the wind can fly, but I can not.”
“Don't worry. Change yourself into rain and the wind can take you across me,” said the desert.
“But how?” the little river asked in surprise.
“The wind can take vapor(蒸气) 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 rain, your nature never changes.” After hearing this, the little river went into the open arms of the wind. It led her to the next stage(阶段) of her life.
Our life is like the experience of the little river. If you want to go for your dream, learn to change the way you think.
