Once upon a time, there lived a farmer called Larry in a small village. He had an old apple tree and some little animals lived in it. When he was young, he spent most of his time {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(play) around it. And it brought him fresh apples as well as much pleasure (快乐).

However, as time passed, the apple tree became old and bore no fruit. Larry thought that the tree {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(be) useless. He decided to cut it down. He forgot {#blank#}3{#/blank#}he had climbed the tree and eaten its apples before.

When Larry took his ax(斧头){#blank#}4{#/blank#}began cutting it down, the little animals living in it came. They asked him whether(是否) he had forgotten the apple tree {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(be) his good friend. He thought for a while and said "No".

Then he noticed something shiny. He realised {#blank#}6{#/blank#}it was a beehive(蜂窝),full of honey. He took a little and put it in his mouth. He said to {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (he), "What sweet honey it is!"The taste of the honey made him think of his happy childhood.

Finally, Larry understood that the apple tree had provided him with so many things and {#blank#}8{#/blank#}it was home to many lovely animals. He threw away the ax and said to the animals,"I promise {#blank#}9{#/blank#}I will never cut down this tree. You all can live here happily."

{#blank#}10{#/blank#}excited all the little animals felt after hearing his words!

Once upon a time, there lived a wise man. Everyone loved him. His son, however, was very lazy and did nothing all day.

The wise man was worried about his son's future. One day, he said to his son, "I want you to go to find some treasure(财宝). I have drawn a map to guide you." Then he handed his son a bag. Inside the bag were clothes, some food, a little money and the map.

The son set. Out on his. Long journey the next day. He had to travel across forests, rivers and mountains. Along the way, he met a-lot of people. Some helped him with food, and some with a place to live. He also met robbers(强盗) who tried to rob him but failed. He saw changing landscapes(风景) and experienced different kinds of weather.

Finally, after a long year, he reached the place of treasure. He spent two days looking and digging for the treasure, but found nothing.

Feeling sad, he headed back to his home. On his way back, he experienced the same changing landscapes and seasons. Sometimes, he would stop to enjoy the beauty of nature. He also learned to hunt and make meals. He had to fix(修补) his own clothes and the tent himself. He was now able to tell time by the sun and protect(保护) himself from wild animals. He met the same people who had helped him earlier. This time, he stayed and helped them in order to repay them.

When he reached home, he said sorry to his father for not finding the treasure.

"There wasn't any treasure in the very first place, my son," the father answered with a smile. "But I think you have found your life's true meaning."
