    这本书对瓦影响颇深...小学的时候第一次看就略带别扭的感动了好久...最近给瓦的...唔...肿么称呼呢...(竟然纠结这个...——...)“新学生”当英语练习的时候再次挖掘出来了...结果又稀里糊涂的感动了一番...觉得应该和大家分享一下~ 瓦肯定有人看过,不过这次瓦发的是原版的...(也就是英文版的...)大家对中文版的有需求瓦也可以发上来哟~

      虽然的确是出版了...但是却很简短...确切的说只能是个故事吧......3楼是瓦最喜欢的~ 那么就在这里发咯喵~
      Once, there was a tree…
      And she loved a little boy.
      And every day the boy would come,
      And he would gather her leaves,
      And make them into crowns and play king of the forest.
      He would climb up her trunk,
      And swing from her branches,
      And eat apples,
      And they would play hide-and-go-seek.
      And when he was tired, he would sleep in her shade.
      And the boy loved the tree… very much…
      And the tree was happy.
      But time went by,
      And the boy grew older.
      And the tree was often alone.
      Then, one day, the boy came to the tree and the tree said:
      –”Come, Boy, come and climb up my trunk and swing from my branches and eat apples and play in my shade and be happy!”
      –”I am too big to climb and play” said the boy. “I want to buy thing and have fun. I want some money.
      Can you give me some money?”
      –”I’m sorry”, said the tree,”but I have no money. I have only leaves and apples. Take my apples, Boy, and sell them in city. Then you will have money and you’ll be happy.”
      And so the boy climbed up the tree and gathered her apples and carried them away.
      And the tree was happy…
      But the boy stayed away for a long time… and the tree was sad.
      And then one day the boy came back, and the tree shook with joy, and she said:
      –”Come, Boy come and climb up my trunk and swing from my branches and eat apples and play in my shade and be happy.”
      –”I am too busy to climb trees,” said the boy. “I want a house to keep me warm”, he said. “I and want a wife and I want children, and so I need a house. Can you give me a house?”
      –”I have no house”, said the tree. “The forest is my house”, said the tree. “But you may cut off my branches and build a house. Then you will be happy”.
      And so the boy cut off her branches and carried them away to build his house. And the tree was happy.
      But the boy stayed away for a long time…
      And when he came back, the tree was so happy she could hardly speak.
      –”Come, Boy” she whispered, “Come and play”.
      –”I am too old and sad to play”, said the boy. “I want a boat that will take me away from here. Can you give me a boat?”
      –”Cut down my trunk and make a boat”, said the tree. “Then you can sail away… and be happy”.
      And so the boy cut down her trunk
      And made a boat and sailed away.
      And the tree was happy…
      But not really. And after a long time the boy came back again.
      –”I am sorry, Boy”, said the tree, “but I have nothing left to give you – My apples are gone”.
      –”My teeth are too weak for apples”, said the boy.
      –”My branches are gone”, said the tree. “You cannot swing on them”.
      –”I am too old to swing on branches”, said the boy.
      –”My trunk is gone”, said the tree. “You cannot climb”.
      –”I am too tired to climb”, said the boy.
      –”I am sorry” sighed the tree. “I wish that I could give you something… but I have nothing left. I am just an old stump. I am sorry…”
      –”I don’t need very much now”, said the boy. “Just a quiet place to sit and rest. I am very tired”.
      –”Well”, said the tree, straightening herself up as much as she could, “well, an old stump is good for sitting and resting. Come, Boy, sit down… sit down and rest”.
      And the boy did.
      And the tree was happy…
      The end.

                -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                从前有一棵树……
                她特别喜欢一个小男孩。
                每天小男孩都会跑来,收集她的叶子,把叶子编成皇冠,扮起森林里的国王。男孩会爬上树干,抓着树枝荡秋千,吃吃树上的苹果。他们会一起玩捉迷藏,玩累了,男孩就在她的树荫下睡一会。男孩特别喜欢这棵树……

                好可爱喔,树很快乐!
                日子一天天过去,男孩长大了。
                树常常很孤独。
                有一天男孩来到了树下,树说:「来吧,孩子,爬上我的树干,抓着我的树枝荡荡秋千,吃吃苹果,在我的树荫下玩耍,快快乐乐的。」
                「我不是小孩子了,我不要爬树和玩耍,」男孩说。「我要买东西来玩,我要钱。你可以给我一些钱吗?」
                「真抱歉」树说,「我没有钱。我只有树叶和苹果。孩子,拿我的苹果到城里去卖。这样,你就会有钱,你就会快乐。」
                於是男孩爬到树上,摘下她的苹果,把苹果统统带走了。

                树很快乐。
                男孩好久都没有再来…….
                树很伤心。
                 有一天,男孩回来了,树高兴地都发颤了。
                她说:「来啊,孩子,爬上我的树干,抓着我的树枝荡秋千,快快乐乐的。 」
                 「我太忙,没时间爬树。」男孩说「我想要一间房子保暖,」他说。「我想要妻子和小孩,所以我需要一间房子。你可以给我一间房子吗?」
                「我没有房子,」树说。 「森林就是我的房子,不过你可以砍下我的树枝去盖房子,这样你就会快乐。」   於是男孩砍下了她的树枝,把树枝带走去盖房子。

                树很快乐。
                可是男孩好久都没有再来,所以当男孩再回来的时候,树太高兴了,高兴得几乎说不出话来。
                「来啊,孩子,」她轻轻地说,「过来,来玩啊!」
                「我又老又伤心,玩不动了,」男孩说。   「我想要一条船,可以带我远离这里。 」「你可以给我一条船吗?」
                「砍下我的树干去造一条船吧!」树说。「这样你就可以远航…..你就会快乐。」
                 於是男孩砍下了她的树干,造了一条船,坐船走了。

                树很快乐……
                但不是真的。
                 过了好久好久那男孩又再回来了。
                「我很抱歉,孩子,」树说, 「我已经没有东西可以给你了…」   「我的苹果没了。」
                「我的牙齿咬不动苹果了,」男孩说。
                「我的树枝没了,」树说。「你不能在上面荡秋千了--」
                「我太老了,不能在树枝上荡秋千」男孩说。   「我的树干没了」树说。「你不能爬--」   「我太累了,爬不动的。」男孩说。   「我很抱歉」树叹了口气。   「我真希望我能给你什麼……可是我什麼也没了。我只剩下一块老树根。真对不起……」
                「我现在要的不多」男孩说。 「只要一个安静,可以坐着休息的地方。我好累好累。」
                「好啊,」树一边说,一边努力挺直身子,「正好啊,老树根是最适合坐下来休息的。坐啊,孩子,坐下来,坐下来休息。」

                于是男孩坐了下来。
                树很快乐。
