男孩和他的树

从前，有一棵巨大的苹果树。

  有一个小男孩每天都喜欢在树下玩耍。他爬树，吃苹果，在树阴下小睡他爱树，树也爱和他玩。

  时间过得真快，小男孩长大 了，他不再每天来树下玩耍了。
 
  一天，男孩来到树下，注视着树，“来和我玩吧！”。树说“我不再是孩子了，我再也不会在树下玩了。”男孩回答道“我想要玩具，我需要钱去买玩具。” “ 对不起，我没有钱但是你可以把我的苹果摘下来卖掉，这样你就有钱了。”

  男孩兴奋地把所有的苹果都摘下来，高兴地离开了。男孩摘走所有的苹果后，很久都没有回来。树很伤心。

  一天，男孩回来了，树很感动。“来和我玩吧！”树说。“我没时间玩，我得工作，养家糊口。我们需要一幢房子，你能帮助我吗？”“对不起，我没有房子，但你可以砍下我的树枝，盖你的房子。”男孩把所有的树枝都砍了下来，高兴的离开了。

  看到男孩高兴的样子，树非常欣慰。但是从此很久没有回来。树再一次孤独伤心起来。

  一个炎热的夏日，男孩终于回来了，树很欣喜。“来和我玩吧！”树说。“我过得不快乐，而且一天天变老了，我想出去航海放松一下。你能给我一条船吗？”“用我的树干造你的船吧，你就能快乐地航行到遥远的地方。”男孩把树干砍下来，做成了一条船。

  他去航海了，很长时间没露面。

  终于，过了很多年，男孩回来了。“对不起，孩子，我再也没有什么东西可以给你了”树说。“我已经没有牙咬苹果了。”男孩回答说。”我也没有树干让你爬了。”树说。“我已经老得爬不动了。”男孩说。“我真的不能再给你任何东西了，除了我正在死去的树根。”树含着眼泪说。“我现在不需要什么了，只想找个地方休息，过了这么些年，我累了。”男孩回答道。“太好了，老树根正是休息时最好的倚靠，来吧，来坐在我身边，休息一下吧。”

  男孩坐下了，树很高兴，含泪微笑着。

  这是每个人的故事，树就是我们的父母。当我们年幼时，我们愿意和爸爸妈妈玩。当我们长大成人后，我们就离开了父母。只有当我们需要一些东西或者遇到麻烦时，才会回来。不论怎样，父母总是支持我们，竭力给我们每一样能让我们高兴的东西。

  你也许会想，男孩对树太残酷了，但那正是我们大家对待父母的方式啊！

A Boy and His Tree

A long time ago, there was a huge apple tree. A little boy loved to come and play around it every day. 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.
??
??　　Time went by…The little boy had grown up and he no longer played around the tree.
??
??　　One day, the boy came back to the tree and 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 picked all the apples on the tree and left happily. The boy didn’t come 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 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 cut 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 didn’t appear since then. The tree was again 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?” “Use my trunk to build the boat. You can sail and be happy.” So the boy cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and did not show up for a long time.
??
??　　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 trunk for you to climb on.” “I am too old for that now.” the boy said. “I really want to give you something…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 are the best place to lean on and rest. Come here, please sit down with me and have a rest.” The boy sat down and the tree was glad and smiled with tears…
??
??　　This is a story of everyone. The tree is our parent. When we were young, we loved to play with Mom and Dad… When we grow up, we leave them, and only come 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 that the boy is cruel to the tree but that"s how all of us are treating our parents.
??
??
??I was deeply moved by this story, how about you,my dear friends?
