One day a red rose blossomed (开花) in a forest. A pine tree(松树) not far away said, “You’re so beautiful! I wish I could be lovely like you. ”

The rose said, “I am the most beautiful plant in the forest.” Then the rose looked at a cactus(仙人掌) and said, “Look at that ugly plant. It is full of thorns (刺)!”Sometimes, the red rose would look at the cactus and say, “This plant is useless. I’m sorry I am his neighbor. ”

Summer came and the plants and animals needed water, but no rain fell. One day the rose saw some birds stick their beaks(鸟喙) into the cactus and then fly away.
