蘋果樹的故事 Apple Tree Story
A long time ago, there was a huge apple tree.

從前有一粿很大的蘋果樹.

A little boy loved to come and play around it everyday. He climbed to the tree top, ate the apples, took a nap under the shadow…He loved the tree and the tree loved to play with him.

有一個小男孩,他每天都喜歡到這粿蘋果樹去玩。他會爬上樹頂,吃樹上的蘋果,還在樹下小睡呢!小男孩非常喜歡這粿蘋果,而這粿樹也非常喜歡和這小男孩玩耍。

Time went by… the little boy had grown up and he no longer played around the tree everyday. 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, I don't play around trees anymore.” The boy replied, “I want toys. I need money to buy them.” Sorry, but I don't have money…but you can pick all my apples and sell them. So, 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.

時間不斷的過去。。。小男孩己經長大,再不會每天都往樹下玩耍了。有一天,小男孩回到樹旁,看來有點悲傷,老蘋果樹對男孩說:來吧!和我一起玩吧!男孩回答說:我不再是小孩子了,我再不會圍著樹玩了。我只要玩具。我需要鈔票去買玩具。。。老蘋果樹對男孩說:對不起!我不能給你鈔票,不如你摘下我樹枝上的蘋果,拿去賣,就可以換到金錢去買玩具。男孩非常興奮,他立刻把樹上的所有蘋果摘下,跟著便高興地離開了。。。之後,男孩一直都沒有回來,老蘋果樹很傷心。

One day, the boy returned and the tree was so excited. “Come and play with me” the tree said. “I don't have time to play. I have to work for my family. We need a house for shelter. Can you help me?” “Sorry, but I don't have a house. But you can chop off my branches to build your house.” So the boy cut all the branches of the tree and left happily. The tree was glad to see him happy but the boy never came back since then. The tree was again lonely and sad.

有一日。男孩又回到樹下,老蘋果樹很開心地對男孩說:來吧!和我一起玩吧!男孩說:我可沒有時間去玩,我要為我的家人工作,我需要一間房子,你可不可以幫我嗎?老蘋果樹對男孩說:對不起!我沒有房子,不過你可以砍下我的樹枝去建房子。男孩立刻把樹上的所有樹枝也砍掉,跟著便高興地離開了。。。老蘋果樹很樂意看到男孩快樂,但是,男孩一直都沒有回來,老蘋果樹又再孤獨和悲傷。

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?” “Use my truck to build your boat. You can sail far away and be happy.” So the boy cut the tree truck to make a boat. He went sailing and never showed up for a long time.

在夏日的某一天,那男孩又再回到樹下,老蘋果樹很開心地對男孩說:來吧!和我一起玩吧!男孩說:我不再快樂,我已經老邁了,我只希望去揚帆航行,放鬆一下自己,你可以給我一隻小船麼?老蘋果樹對男孩說:你可以砍下我的樹幹去造一隻小船。這樣,你便可以快樂地揚帆出海了。男孩立刻把樹幹砍下去造了一隻小船。男孩跟著便駕船出了海,很久也沒有再出現。

Finally, the boy returned after he left for so many years. “Sorry, my boy. But I don't have anything for you anymore. No more apples for you… “the tree said. “I don't have teeth to bite” the boy replied. “No more truck for you to climb on” “I am too old for that now” the boy said. “I really can't give you anything … the only thing left is my dying roots” the tree said with tears. “I don't need much now, just a place to rest. I am tired after all these years.” The boy replied. “Good! Old tree roots is the best place to lean on and rest. Come,Come sit down with me and rest.” The boy sat down and the tree was glad and smiled with tears…….

在多年之後,那男孩又再回到樹下,老蘋果樹對男孩說:對不起!我的小孩子,我再不能給你什麼了。我再沒有苹果。。。男孩說:我也沒有牙齒去咬苹果了。老蘋果樹對男孩說:我再也沒有樹幹可以給你攀爬了。男孩說:我也太老了,想爬樹也不可能了。老蘋果樹含淚對男孩說:我實在再不能給你什麼了。。。我只剩下一些垂死的樹根吧!男孩說:我也不需要什么了,是只要一處可以給我休息的地方,我早已疲倦。老蘋果樹對男孩說:好!老樹的樹根是最好倚靠和休息的地方,來,來,坐在我身旁,好好休息。。。男孩坐在老蘋果樹旁邊,老蘋果樹非常開心,微笑,不過,淚水也一齊掉了下來。

This is a story of everyone. The tree is our parent.

這是每個人的故事。那蘋果樹就是我們的父母親。。。

When we were young, we loved to play with Mom and Dad…
When we grown up, we left them… only came to them when we need something or when we are in trouble. No matter what, parents will always be there and give everything they could to make you happy.

You may think the boy is cruel to the tree but that's how all of us are treating our parent.

也許,你會覺得那男孩對那蘋果樹實在很狠心,但是,我們就是這樣對父母。。。

Please enlighten all your friends by asking them to have a look this story. And love your parent.

請你們告訴你的朋友,邀請他們來這里看一看這個故事。還有要敬愛你們的父母!
