An Apple Tree ——为你讲述一个道理 * * * * * * * * * * * * A long time ago, there was a very big apple tree. A little boy loved to come and play around the tree every day. He climbed to the tree top, ate the apples, and took a nap under the trees shadow. He loved the tree and tree loved to play with him. Time went by and the little boy had grown up and no longer played around the tree every day. One day, the boy came back to the tree and he looked sad. Come and play with me! the tree asked the boy. I am no longer a kid and I dont play around the trees anymore, the boy replied. I want toys and I need money to buy them. Sorry, I dont have money, but you can pick all my apples and sell them. Then you will have money. The boy was so excited. He grabbed all the apples on the tree and left happily. The boy never came back after he picked the apples. The tree was sad. One day, the boy returned and the tree was so excited. Come and play with me! the tree said. I dont have time to play. I have to work for my family. We need a house for shelter. Can you help me? Sorry, I dont have a house, but you can chop off my branches to build your house. So the boy cut all the branches off the tree and left happily. The tree was glad to see him happy, but the boy never came back after that. The tree was lonely and sad. One hot summer day, the boy returned and the tree was delighted. Come and play with me! the tree said. I am sad and getting old. I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat? said the boy. Use my trunk to build your boat. You can sail far away and be happy. said the tree. So the boy cut down the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and didnt return for a long time. * *
