    Once there (live) a farmer called Henry. He had a brother Mike, who was an excellent gardener(园丁). His skill and his beautiful trees were famous everywhere. One day, Henry went to town (visit) Mike. "Look, my brother," said Mike, "here is the (good) apple tree from my garden. Take it home and plant it so that you, and your children, and your children's children can enjoy it." Henry was pleased with the apple tree and went back home. The next morning, he began (wonder) where he should plant it.

    "If I plant it on the hill," he said to (he), "the wind might catch it and shake down the fruit. If I plant it close to the road, people who pass by(经过)  (pick) some of them. But if I plant it…"Finally he planted the tree in the corner behind his house, where no one else could  (notice) it. But the tree bore(结出) no fruit the first year, nor the second. Then Henry sent for his brother and said to him (angry), "you have cheated me. This is the third year and it brings me (something) but leaves(叶子)."

    When Mike saw where the tree was planted, he laughed and said, "You have planted the tree in such a cold corner without sun-light or warmth. How could you expect (flower) and fruit?"
