Amazingly, your brain contains about 10

31、0 billion neurons(神经元) -it would take you over 3 ,000 years to count them all. Believe it or not, the activity in your brain never stops.

The stream then thought, “I overcame so many difficulties. I should have no problem crossing this desert !” But when she decided

53、 to start her journey, she found herself gradually disappearing into the sand. After many tries, she still failed.“Maybe its my destiny(命运) ! Im not destined （命中注定）to reach the vast（广阔的） ocean in the legend（传说）, ”she thought sadly to herself.At this time, a deep voice came, saying, “If a breeze（微风）

54、can cross the desert, so can a river.”It was the voice of the desert. But the little stream replied, “Thats because a breeze can fly, but I cant.” “Thats because you stick to what you are. If youre willing to give it up, and let yourself evaporate （蒸发） into the breeze, it can take you across, and yo

55、u can reach your destination(目的地）,” said the desert in its deep voice.The little stream had never heard of such a thing. “Give up what I am now and disappear into the breeze? No!

57、d no. Whether youre a river or vapor, your nature never changes. You stick to the fact that youre a river because you dont know your inner nature,” answered the desert.Hearing this, the little stream went into the open arms of the breeze（微风）. which carried her to the next stage of her life. Perhaps

58、you can try asking yourself these questions: What is my inner nature? What is it that I cling （紧抓） to? And what is it that I really want ?1Before the stream reached the desert, she didnt _ .Abelieve in herself .Bmeet any difficultiesCwant to cross the dessertDworry about the journey to the ocean2The underlined word it refers to_ .AstreamBbreezeCvaporDdesert3The desert suggests that the stream _ in order to cross the desert.Achange its formBdisappear into the desertCstick to what it isDturn
