Question

【題目】 Once there lived a farmer named Henry. He had a brother, Mike, who was an excellent gardener. Mike was famous for his skill and his beautiful trees.

One day, Henry went to town to visit Mike. “Look, my brother,” said Mike. “Here is the best 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 with it. The next morning, he began to wonder where he should plant it.

“If I plant it on the hill,” he said to himself, “the wind might catch it and shake down the fruit; If I plant it close to the road, people will pick some of them; But if I plant it ...” Finally, to his great relief, came up with a good idea. He planted the tree in a corner behind his house, where no one else would notice it. He expected to enjoy the readdest, juiciest, sweetest apples.

But there was no fruit on the tree the first year, nor the second. Henry sent for his brother and said to him angrily, “You have cheated me. I have been taking good care of the apple tree you gave me. This is the third year and it brings me nothing but leaves.”

When Mike saw where the tree was planted, he laughed and said, “You have planted the tree in such a cold comer without sunlight or warmth. Then, how could you expect flowers and fruit?”
