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.

If you have a brother or sister, you already know you are different from each other. You live together in the same house and have the same parents, but you have different personalities.
Why is this? One possible reason is the way your parents treat you. First-born children receive all the attention from their parents. Most families have twice as many photos of a first-born than any other child. Parents usually give first-born more responsibility and depend on them to take care of younger brothers and sisters. As a result, first-borns are often responsible, hard-working, and jealous. They often want to do well at school and work. There are more first-born American Presidents, for example, George Bush, George Washington, and Lyndon Baines Johnson-than second or last-born children.
When a second child arrives, parents are more relaxed. The second child has to compete with the first-born for the parents’ attention and love. Their children often choose different sports and hobbies to do well at school and work, but have to be creative to get their family’s attention. They are often friendly and cool. Many famous talk-show hosts were born last.
