Dora was in the bathroom. The tap was on.
“Turn that tap off,” said an angry voice. “You are wasting water.”
Dora looked around, but there was no one there.
“Who are you?”
“I’m a drop of water. Do you know where I come from?”
“From the tap?” asked Dora.
“A few days ago, I was in a cloud,” said the drop of water. “Then I dropped into a river and ran into a reservoir (蓄水池). Then it was time for people to clean me.”
“Clean you?” Dora asked.
“Yes, I was dirty. They cleaned me and added some chemicals (化学品) to me. Then I travelled through the pipes (管道) under the streets and now I’m here.”
Dora asked, “So is this the end of your trip?”
“No. People will make me clean again. I’ll go into a river and into the sea again.”
“Again?”
“Yes. My trip starts there. Remember not to waste me or make me dirty. I’m valuable.”
