a. The forests at the source of the Yellow River are becoming smaller. What’s the phrease ‘at the source of’ in the sentence mean ?
b. The future of our planet is at stake. What’s the phrease ‘at sake’ in this sentence mean????????
Thanks for all every person that tries to answer this question.

at the source of 指的是"在...的源头",不是"beside,near"的意思;

at stake 指的是"处于危险状态".

1."at the sourse of" here probably means at the beginning of.
2."at stake" means dangerous.
