As time went by,the boy had grown up and no longer played around it.One day,he came back and the tree excitedly invited him to play.But the boy said he needed money to buy toys."Sorry,but I have no money,but you can pick all my apples and sell them,"said the tree.The boy did as told and left happily but never came back.The tree was sad. Many years passed,the boy returned and told him he had to make money to build a house for his family.The tree happily offered his branches for his house.With the branches,the boy left satisfied. The tree was again lonely and sad. Then one hot summer day,the tree was delighted to see the boy back again."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."The boy cut the tree trunk and went sailing but 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 with tears. The boy replied that he was too old and needed nothing."Good!Old tree root is the best place to lean on and rest.Come,sit down with me and rest."The boy sat down and the tree was glad and smiled with tears... 参考范文： The fable presents a moving story to us,in which an apple tree satisfied a boy's wishes unconditionally by sacrificing everything for him.All it desired is the boy's company. The tree in the fable is affectionate and unselfish.The moral of it is that parental love is so infinite that children should be grateful for that.I was deeply moved by the fable and felt an impulse to praise all the parents.It made me realize how great my parents are and I should be grateful for what they have done for me.Love is its own reward.Therefore,if I were the boy,I would hold the tree dear. ·英语
