There was a cloud that flew high in the sky over a beautiful green field. One day, she saw another cloud that was much bigger. She wanted to grow bigger herself. She decided that she would never rain again.
Soon, the cloud started to grow. But the field below her was becoming dry. First, its rivers dried up. Then its lakes became dry as well. People, plants and animals died. In the end, the field became one big desert(沙漠). But the cloud didn’t care. However, as time went on, there was nowhere for her to get new water. So slowly, she became even smaller than she used to be.
The cloud knew she was wrong. Her selfishness(自私) was the reason why she became smaller. At that moment, a light wind began to blow. The cloud was so small that she flew to a new field that was still green. There, she started to grow again. But this time, she was more generous(大方的) with her rain. Her new field became even greener. At last the cloud realized it was very important to share with others.
