A. 關於樹的英語短文
第一篇語美文:我的搖錢樹My money tree
我一直想要一個花園，但隨著五個孩子的接連出生，我既沒有錢，也沒有時間打理花園。直到有一年的母親節，我驚奇地發現院子里種了一棵搖錢樹！那是孩子們送給我的禮物，他們幫我建起了我夢寐以求的花園。
現在，當我照料花園時，我感覺孩子們就在我身邊。每次想起孩子們為我做的一切，我便熱淚盈眶。我不知道錢是否真能長在樹上，但我相信愛可以。
For years I wanted a flower garden. I'd spend hours thinking of different things I could plant that would look nice together.
But then we had Matthew. And Marvin. And the twins, Alisa and Alan. And then Helen. Five children. I was too busy raising them to grow a garden.
Money was tight, as well as time. Often when my children were little, one of them would want something that cost too much, and I'd have to say, "Do you see a money tree outside? Money doesn't grow on trees, you know."
Finally, all five got through high school and college and were off on their own. I started thinking again about having a garden.
第二篇Four Seasons of a Tree
一棵樹的四季
Don't judge a life by one difficult season.
There was a man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn to not judge things too quickly. So he sent them each on a quest, in turn, to go and look at a pear tree that was a great distance away.
The first son went in the winter, the second in the spring, the third in summer, and the youngest son in the fall.
When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to describe what they had seen.
The first son said that the tree was ugly, bent, and twisted. The second son said no - it was covered with green buds and full of promise.
The third son disagreed, he said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful, it was the most graceful thing he had ever seen.
The last son disagreed with all of them; he said it was ripe and drooping with fruit, full of life and fulfillment.
The man then explained to his sons that they were all right, because they had each seen but one season in the tree's life.
He told them that you cannot judge a tree, or a person, by only one season, and that the essence of who they are - and the pleasure, joy, and love that come from that life - can only be measured at the end, when all the seasons are up.
If you give up when it's winter, you will miss the promise of your spring, the beauty of your summer, fulfillment of your fall. Don't let the pain of one season destroy the joy of all the rest.

The Trees Outside My Window
窗 外 的 風 景
From the window of my room, I could see a tall cotton-rose hibiscus. In spring, when green foliage was half hidden by mist, the tree looked very enchanting dotted with red blossom. This inspiring neighbor of mine often set my mind working. I graally regarded it as my best friend.
從我的房間的窗子向外望去,可以看到一株高大的芙蓉樹.秋日裡,芙蓉樹在薄霧中若隱若現,紅花點點,樣子實在迷人.它總是賦予我靈感,讓我思如泉湧.時間久了,我竟把這菱蓉視為知已了.
Nevertheless, when I opened the window one morning, to my amazement, the tree was almost bare beyond recognition as a result of the storm ravages the night before. Struck by the plight, I was seized with a sadness at the thought 「all the blossom is doomed to fall」. I could not help sighing with emotion: the course of life never runs smooth, for there are so many ups and downs, twists and turns. The vicissitudes of my life saw my beloved friends parting one after another. Isn』t it similar to the tree shedding its flowers in the wind?
然而,一天清晨,當我推開窗子時,愕然發現前夜的一場風雨已將它摧殘得落紅滿地.剎那間,我有一種"花開終有落"的悲涼感覺.這使我不由得發出一聲慨嘆:人生的旅途中,總是少不了種種羈絆,那些曲折的經歷總會伴隨著我們.曾經失去過的摯愛的朋友,生命的脆弱不正是像這隨風而逝的花嗎?
This event faded from my memory as time went by. One day after I came home from the countryside, I found the room stuffy and casually opened the window. Something outside caught my eye and dazzled me. It was a plum tree all scarlet with blossom set off beautifully by the sunset. The surprise discovery overwhelmed me with pleasure. I wondered why I had no idea of some unyielding life sprouting over the fallen petals when I was grieving for the hibiscus.
隨著時間的流逝,我漸漸地把那天的感觸淡忘了,一次出差回來,感到屋內的空氣有些沉悶,於是我不經意的打開了窗,可就在那一瞬,我被眼前的景象驚呆了.窗外,一株李子樹開花了,火紅火紅的花朵,滿樹都是.在夕陽的映襯下,分外美麗.這意外讓我驚喜不已.沒想到當初自己只顧悲傷,卻沒發現那凄涼的背後,竟存在著如此堅強的靈魂.
When the last withered petal dropped, all the joyful admiration for the hibiscus sank into oblivion as if nothing was left, until the landscape was again ablaze with the red plum blossom to remind people of life』s alternation and continuance. Can』t it be said that life is actually a symphony, a harmonious composition of loss and gain.
是啊,當芙蓉的最後一片花瓣凋落之時,人們以往對它的贊許都已成為過眼去煙.可如今,李子樹卻成長起來了,那火紅的花兒正向人們昭示著生命的更迭與繁衍.誰能否認生命原本就是一場得失共存的交響音呢?Standing by the window lost in thought for a long time, I realized that no scenery in the world remains unchanged. As long as you keep your heart basking in the sun, every dawn will present a fine prospect for you to unfold and the world will always be about new hopes.
我久久地佇立在窗前,深深感悟到,生命之中本沒有一成不變的風景,只要你的心永遠向著陽光,那麼每一個清晨就會向你展現出一個等待著由你來開啟的美景.不管你正經歷著怎樣的風雨,請相信,這個世界總會帶給你新的希望.
第三篇
The Blessing Tree
I had gone into a supervisor's office to talk about a couple of issues that needed to be addressed. She, like all of the men and women in her department, had been through the proverbial "ringer." The stress was so intense, one could almost taste it.
I had been assisting the department ring a crunch period of being very short-handed, and was watching everyone get close to burn-out. When I inquired about her state of mind, she confessed that her home life was almost non-existant, because she was "zombieing through the evening". The next words out of her mouth expressed a frustration of my own: "This work is not my gift from God. My family is!"
I had heard of hanging all of one's problems from the office on a "Trouble Tree" while driving home, to be picked up on the way back to the office in the morning, and for a brief second thought about suggesting that scenario.
But what came out was: "Why don't we do something different? Let's have a Blessing Tree. On the way home in the evening, we could pull down a blessing to dwell on a character trait we adore in our spouse, a particular reason we love them, the love they or our children have for us. The list could be endless."
When I tried it on the way home that night, the stress seemed to melt away. There was a "spring in my step" and when I arrived, a smile of joy and contentment was bubbling up from within! For the first time in 2 weeks, I was overjoyed to greet my wife and children!
The Blessing Tree could make a major difference in your evenings, especially after those REALLY tough days.
窗 外 的 風 景
蘋果樹的短文故事
A long time ago, there was a huge apple tree. A little boy loved to come and lay 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 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, 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.
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 off 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.
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 your boat. You can sail far away and be happy.」 So the boy cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and never showed up for a long time. The tree was happy, but it was not true.
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 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...
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 grown up, we left them, and 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 that the boy is cruel to the tree but that』s how all of us are treating our parents.
Take time out ring the day for quiet time to listen to your inner voice. You may want to use your quiet time to meditate or pray. However you use this time, the key is to shut out all of the noise around you by focusing deep within yourself. Breathing deeply ring quiet time will also help you focus. I know it』s hard to find quiet time ring a particularly busy day, but it』s so important — even if it』s just 10 minutes a day and you have to sneak away to get it. Quiet time can really make a difference in your life. It enables you to hear God speaking to your heart reminding you of His perfect love for you.
Be honest with yourself by paying attention to your actions. Actions speak louder than words, and they always tell the truth. What do your actions say about you? If you say you love your job, but your actions say otherwise, which do you think is more true — your words or your actions? On the other hand, if you say you』re not good at a certain job, but your actions say otherwise, that』s also important. What do you do with this insight? You can use it to make more beneficial choices in your life. By being honest with yourself based on your previous actions, your actions moving forward will be based on truth instead of just what you tell yourself.
Despite what your subconscious may be telling you, you can have love with no limits. The key is to unconditionally love yourself first.
很久很久以前，有一棵又高又大的蘋果樹。一位小男孩，天天到樹下來，他爬上去摘蘋果吃，在樹蔭下睡覺。他愛蘋果樹，蘋果樹也愛和他一起玩耍。
後來，小男孩長大了，不再天天來玩耍。一天他又來到樹下，很傷心的樣子。蘋果樹要和他一起玩，男孩說：「不行，我不小了，不能再和你玩，我要玩具，可是沒錢買。」蘋果樹說：「很遺憾，我也沒錢，不過，把我所有的果子摘下來賣掉，你不就有錢了？」男孩十分激動，他摘下所有的蘋果，高高興興地走了。然後，男孩好久都沒有來。蘋果樹很傷心。
有一天，男孩終於來了，樹興奮地邀他一起玩。男孩說：「不行，我沒有時間，我要替家裡幹活呢，我們需要一幢房子，你能幫忙嗎？」「我沒有房子，」蘋果樹說，「不過你可以把我的樹枝統統砍下來，拿去搭房子。」於是男孩砍下所有的樹枝，高高興興地運走去蓋房子。看到男孩高興樹好快樂。從此，男孩又不來了。樹再次陷入孤單和悲傷之中。
一年夏天，男孩回來了，樹太快樂了：「來呀！孩子，來和我玩呀。」男孩卻說：「我心情不好，一天天老了，我要揚帆出海，輕松一下，你能給我一艘船嗎？」蘋果樹說：「把我的樹干砍去，拿去做船吧！」於是男孩砍下了她的樹干，造了條船，然後駕船走了，很久都沒有回來。樹好快樂……但不是真的。
許多年過去，男孩終於回來，蘋果樹說：「對不起，孩子，我已經沒有東西可以給你了，我的蘋果沒了。」
男孩說：「我的牙都掉了，吃不了蘋果了。」
蘋果樹又說：「我再沒有樹干，讓你爬上來了。」
男孩說：「我太老了，爬不動了。」
「我再也沒有什麼給得出手了……，只剩下枯死下去的老根，」樹流著淚說。
男孩說：「這么多年過去了，現在我感到累了，什麼也不想要，只要一個休息的地方。」
「好啊！老根是最適合坐下來休息的，來啊，坐下來和我一起休息吧！」男孩坐下來，蘋果樹高興得流下了眼淚……
這就是我們每個人的故事。這顆樹就是我們的父母。小時候，我們喜歡和爸爸媽媽玩……長大後，我們就離開他們，只在需要什麼東西或者遇到麻煩的時候，才回到他們身邊。無論如何，父母永遠都在那兒，傾其所有使你快樂。你可能認為這個男孩對樹很殘酷，但這就是我們每個人對待父母的方式。
白天花些時間出去，獨自傾聽自己的心聲。你可能想利用這段安靜的時間沉思或祈禱。無論如何利用這段時間，關鍵是要排除周圍所有的噪音，關注自己的內心深處。安靜的時間進行深呼吸也能幫你集中注意力。我知道在特別忙碌的日子找到安靜的時間很難，然而這很重要——即使一天只有10分鍾，你也要溜開抓住它。安靜的時間確實能使你的生命變得不同，它促使你傾聽上帝與你的心靈對話，使你想起他賦予你的完美的愛。
坦誠對己，注重行動吧。事實勝於雄辯，行動才能證明事實。你的行動是如何說明你的呢？如果你說熱愛自己的工作，而你的行動正好相反，你認為哪個更有說服力呢——言語還是行動？另一方面，如果你說不擅長某項工作，但你的行動正好相反，這也很重要。你怎麼處理你這種能力？你可以由此在生活中做出更多的選擇，坦誠對己也建立在以前的行為上，你以後的行動將會以事實為基礎，而不只是你的言詞。
不管你的潛意識告訴你什麼，你都能夠擁有無盡的愛，關鍵是首先你要無條件地愛自己。
B. 高中英語美文
1，If I Had My Life to Live Over/如果我能再活一次
I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretending the earth would go into a holding pattern if I weren't there for the day.
生病的時候我就卧床休息，不會假裝自己一天不工作，地球就會停止轉動。
I would have burned the pink candle sculpted like a rose before it melted in storage.
我要將雕成玫瑰花狀的粉紅蠟燭點上，而不讓它在閑置中溶化。
I would have eaten the popcorn in the 「good」 living room and worried much less about the dirt when someone wanted to light a fire in the fireplace.
我要在「講究」的客廳里吃爆玉米花。倘若有人在壁爐生火帶出了爐灰，我不會操那麼多閑心。
I would never have insisted the car windows be rolled up on a summer day because my hair had just been teased and sprayed.
我決不會因為夏天頭發剛剛梳理過、噴過發膠，就一定要把車窗玻璃搖起來。
I would have cried and laughed less while watching television—and more while watching life.
看電視我要少哭一點，少笑一點，看生活我要多哭一點，多笑一點。
I would never have bought anything just because it was practical, wouldn't show soil, or was guaranteed to last a lifetime.
我買東西不會只看它很實用，不顯臟，或能保證用一輩子。
But mostly, given another shot at life, I would seize every minute…look at it and really see it … live it … and never give it back.
但總的來說，如果再讓我活一回，我要把握好分分秒秒，留心生活，真正關注生活，品味生活，決不使歲月蹉跎。
Don't worry about who doesn't like you, who has more money, or who's doing what. Instead, let's cherish the relationships we have with those who do love us. Let's think about what God has blessed us with, and what we are doing each day to promote ourselves mentally, physically, emotionally.
不擔心誰不喜歡我，誰比我富有，或者誰在干什麼。讓我們珍惜與真心關愛我們的人之間那份感情。讓我們多想想上帝賜予我們的福分。多想想我們每天做了哪些有益於自己思想、身體、感情和精神的事。
2生命中那些匆匆的過客
When he told me he was leaving I felt like a vase which has just smashed. There were pieces of me all over the tidy, tan tiles. He kept talking, telling me why he was leaving, explaining it was for the best, I could do better, it was his fault and not mine. I had heard it before many times and yet somehow was still not immune; perhaps one did not become immune to such felony.He left and I tried to get on with my life. I filled the kettle and put it on to boil, I took out my old red mug and filled it with coffee watching as each coffee granule slipped in to the bone china. That was what my life had been like, endless omissions of coffee granules, somehow never managing to make that cup of coffee. Somehow when the kettle piped its finishing warning I pretended not to hear it. That's what Mike's leaving had been like, sudden and with an awful finality. I would rather just wallow in uncertainty than have things finished. I laughed at myself. Imagine getting all philosophical and sentimental about a mug of coffee. I must be getting old.
And yet it was a young woman who stared back at me from the mirror. A young woman full of promise and hope, a young woman with bright eyes and full lips just waiting to take on the world. I never loved Mike anyway. Besides there are more important things. More important than love, I insist to myself firmly. The lid goes back on the coffee just like closure on the whole Mike experience.
He doesn't haunt my dreams as I feared that night. Instead I am flying far across fields and woods, looking down on those below me. Suddenly I fall to the ground and it is only when I wake up that I realize I was shot by a hunter, brought down by the burden of not the bullet but the soul of the man who shot it. I realize later, with some degree of understanding, that Mike was the hunter holding me down and I am the bird that longs to fly.
The next night my dream is similar to the previous nights, but without the hunter. I fly free until I meet another bird who flies with me in perfect harmony. I realize with some relief that there is a bird out there for me, there is another person, not necessarily a lover perhaps just a friend, but there is someone out there who is my soul mate. I think about being a broken vase again and realize that I have glued myself back together, what Mike has is merely a little part of my time in earth, a little understanding of my physical being. He has only, a little piece of me.

可能有點長，還是推薦這個很老的哲理故事吧，雖然大家都聽過了，但是還是值得時時想起，提醒自己的。。。樹欲靜而風不止，子欲養而親不待
《男孩和他的樹》
從前，有一棵巨大的蘋果樹。
一個小男孩每天都喜歡在樹下玩耍。他爬樹，吃蘋果，在樹蔭下小睡……他愛和樹玩，樹也愛和他玩。
時間過的很快，小男孩長大了，他不再每天都來樹下玩耍了。
「來和我玩吧。」樹說。
「我不再是孩子了，我再也不會在樹下玩了。」男孩回答道，「我想要玩具，我需要錢去買玩具。」
「對不起，我沒有錢……但是，你可以把我的蘋果摘下來，拿去賣錢，這樣你就有錢了。」
男孩興奮的把所有的蘋果都摘下來，高興的離開了。男孩摘了蘋果後很久都沒有回來。樹很傷心。
一天，男孩回來了，樹很激動。
「來和我玩吧。」樹說。
「我沒時間玩，我得工作，養家糊口。我們需要一棟房子，你能幫助我嗎？」
「對不起，我沒有房子，但是你可以砍下我的樹枝，拿去蓋你的房子。」男孩把所有的樹枝都砍下來，高興的離開了。
看到男孩那麼高興，樹非常欣慰。但是，男孩從此很久都沒回來。樹再一次孤獨，傷心起來。
一個炎熱的夏日，男孩終於回來了，樹很欣慰。
「來和我玩吧！」樹說。
「我過的不快樂，我也一天天變老了，我想去航海放鬆一下。你能給我一條船嗎？」
「用我的樹干造你的船吧，你就能快樂地航行到遙遠的地方了。」男孩把樹干砍下來，做成了一條船。
他去航海了，很長時間都沒露面。
最後，過了很多年，男孩終於回來了。
「對不起，孩子，我再也沒有什麼東西可以給你了……」樹說。
「我已經沒有牙咬蘋果了。」男孩回答道。
「我也沒有樹干讓你爬了。」樹說。
「我已經老得爬不動了。」男孩說。
「我真的不能再給你任何東西了，除了我正在死去的樹根。」樹含著淚說。
「我現在不需要什麼了，只想找個地方休息。過了這么些年，我累了。」男孩回答道。
「太好了！老樹根正是休息是最好的倚靠，來吧，來坐在我身邊，休息一下吧。」
男孩坐下了，樹很高興，含著淚微笑著……
****************
這是每個人的故事，樹就是我們的父母。當我們年輕的時候，我們願意和爸爸媽媽玩。當我們長大成人，我們就離開了父母，只有我們需要一些東西或者遇到一些麻煩時，才會回來。不論怎樣，父母總是支持我們，竭力給我們每一樣能讓我們高興的東西。
你也許會想，男孩對樹太殘酷了，但是，那正是我們所有人對待父母的方式啊！

The tree was glad to see him happy but the boy never came back 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
a boat?」
「Use my truck to build your boat.You can sail faraway 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.
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
for you…「The tree said.
「I don』t have teeth to bite.」The boy replied.
「No more truck foe you to climb on.」
「I am too old for that now.」The boy said.
「I really can 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 year」
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……
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 grown up, we left them…Only came to them when we need something or when we are in trouble.
No matter what,parents will alway be there and give everything they could to make you happy.
You may think the boy is cruel to the tree but that how all of us are treating our parent.Time is too slow for those who wait,too swift for those who fear,too long for those who grieve,too short for those who rejoice,but for those who love,time is eternity.

G. 英語短文
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. 「 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.
很久以前有一棵蘋果樹。一個小男孩每天都喜歡來到樹旁玩耍。他爬到樹頂，吃蘋果，在樹蔭里打盹……他愛這棵樹，樹也愛和他一起玩。
隨著時間的流逝，小男孩長大了。他不再到樹旁玩耍了。
一天，男孩回到樹旁，看起來很悲傷。「來和我玩吧！」樹說。
「我不再是小孩了，我不會再到樹下玩耍了。」男孩答到，「我想要玩具，我需要錢來買。」
「很遺憾，我沒有錢……但是你可以採摘我的所有蘋果拿去賣。這樣你就有錢了。」男孩很興奮。他摘掉樹上所有的蘋果，然後高興地離開了。自從那以後男孩沒有回來。樹很傷心。
一天，男孩回來了，樹非常興奮。「來和我玩吧。」樹說。「我沒有時間玩。我得為我的家庭工作。我們需要一個房子來遮風擋雨，你能幫我嗎？」很遺憾，我沒有房子。但是，你可以砍下我的樹枝來建房。「因此，男孩砍下所有的樹枝，高高興興地離開了。
看到他高興，樹也很高興。但是，自從那時起男孩沒再出現，樹有孤獨，傷心起來。
突然，在一個夏日，男孩回到樹旁，樹很高興。「來和我玩吧！」樹說。
「我很傷心，我開始老了。我想去航海放鬆自己。你能不能給我一條船？」 「用我的樹干去造一條船，你就能航海了，你會高興的。」於是，男孩砍倒樹干去造船。他航海去了，很長一段時間未露面。
許多年後男孩終於回來了。「很遺憾，我的孩子，我再也沒有任何東西可以給你了。沒有蘋果給你……」樹說。「我沒有牙齒啃。」 男孩答到。「沒有樹干供你爬。」「現在我老了，爬不上去了。」 男孩說。「我真的想把一切都給你……我唯一剩下的東西是快要死去的樹墩。」 樹含著眼淚說。「現在，我不需要什麼東西，只需要一個地方來休息。經過了這些年我太累了。」男孩答到。 「太好了！老樹墩就是倚著休息的最好地方。過來，和我一起坐下休息吧。」 男孩坐下了，樹很高興，含淚而笑……
這是一個發生在每一個人身上的故事。那棵樹就像我們的父母。我們小的時候，喜歡和爸爸媽媽玩……長大後，便離開他們，只有在我們需要父母親，或是遇到了困難的時候，才會回去找他們。盡管如此，父母卻總是有求必應，為了我們的幸福，無私地奉獻自己的一切。你也許覺得那個男孩很殘忍，但我們何嘗不是這樣呢？

H. 英語寫蘋果樹的四季小短文帶翻譯
我的抄家鄉在東北，我愛家鄉的蘋果襲樹。
細雨如絲，一顆顆蘋果樹貪婪地吮吸著春天的甘露，它們伸展著那細長的枝條，在雨霧中歡笑著。
勞動節過後，樹上開滿了小花。白色的花瓣真惹人喜愛，幾篇花瓣組成的小花好像一把白色的小傘，有的含苞欲放露出粉紅色的花蕊。這時樹上也長出許多新芽。
花漸漸地凋謝了，結出了像黃豆粒大的果實，葉子也漸漸長大了，葉序為單葉互，橢圓形，葉緣有鋸齒。
到了九月份，蘋果長大了，圓圓的蘋果，有的淡紅了，有的紅了，有的深紅了，像一個個小燈籠掛在枝頭上，招來鄰居家的孩子們，他們嚷著要吃蘋果，我爬上樹，給他們摘了幾個蘋果，我也忍不住吃了一個，果肉白里透黃，又甜又脆，真爽口。
我愛我家的蘋果樹，更愛吃剛摘下來的大蘋果。( 文
