In a mountain stream in the UK, there is a clear little river. The source of the little river is a clear spring on the mountain, and it starts its journey from there. At the very beginning, the little river was very narrow and slender, like a shiny ribbon shuttling through the valley. Around it were towering mountains, covered with lush trees, which were like guards protecting the little river one by one. The little river flowed merrily, making a clear sound of flowing water, as if singing a happy song.
The little river continued to flow forward and gradually entered a thick forest. The big trees in the forest were very tall, and their branches and leaves intertwined with each other, blocking a lot of sunlight and making the forest a bit gloomy. But the little river was not afraid. It thought this place was very interesting. It shuttled among the roots of the trees and sometimes formed small whirlpools. All the small animals in the forest came to the little river to drink water, such as deer, rabbits and squirrels. The little river was very happy to be friends with these small animals and provided them with sweet water sources.
After flowing out of the forest, the little river came to a quiet village. There were many low - rise houses in the village, with wisps of smoke rising from the rooftops. There was an ancient stone bridge over the little river, and the villagers walked across the bridge every day. Children would play by the river. They put small paper boats into the river and watched them float away with the current. The little river carefully carried these small paper boats as if it was taking care of precious treasures. Sometimes, the villagers would also wash clothes by the river, and the little river carried away the dirt on the clothes and made them clean.
After staying in the village for a while, the little river had to continue its journey again. It flowed farther and farther and finally flowed into a big river. The big river was much wider than the little river, and the water flow was more rapid. When the little river first entered the big river, it was a little scared, but it soon adapted. In the big river, it saw many different scenes, with bigger boats sailing and more kinds of fish swimming.
The little river flowed towards the sea along with the big river all the time. It could feel that the sea was getting closer and closer, because there was already a salty smell in the air. Finally, the little river reached the estuary of the sea. The sea was so vast that it was out of sight at a glance. The little river was a little hesitant, but the adventurous spirit in its heart made it bravely rush into the sea. In the sea, the little river felt an unprecedented power. The waves kept hitting it, but it still tried hard to maintain its own existence. It saw huge whales swimming in the distance and beautiful dolphins jumping beside it. The little river began a new life in the sea, and it knew that its adventure was still going on.
