"I'm sorry. I have to do so, " the man said, "because I need wood to make a chair." Then he began to wave his axe. At that moment, a bird in the old tree shouted at him, "Don't cut it down! Every time you go out and your wife feels lonely, she will come out to the garden and sit under the tree to enjoy its cool shade, and I sing songs to make her happy. We give much pleasure to your wife when you are away from home."

The man didn't listen to the bird and drove it away. Just when he was about to cut the tree, some bees flew out of it and said, "Listen! If you agree not to kill this tree, we will give you delicious honey every day. Would you please leave the tree with us?"

The man got moved. He said, "You are so kind to the tree, although it has become old. Now I see that I shouldn't cut it down. It has done so much for me and my wife. Let the tree stay here, and let the bird continue its songs here." With these words, the man left. And the old tree lived there to its last day.

　　A rich man saw an old man digging（挖坑）in the garden. On the ground lay a young tree, ready to be planted. The rich man called out to the old man.“What kind of tree are you planting there, my good man?”“This is a fig（无花果）tree, sir.”He said.“A fig tree?”Tile rich man was very surprised.“Why? How old are you, may I ask?”“I am ninety years old.”

　　“What?”cried the rich man.“You are ninety years old. You axe planting a very young tree now and it will take years to grow fruit. You certainly don't hope to live long enough to get any fruit from this tree.”The old man looked around the garden. Then he said with a smile,“Tell me, sir. Did you eat figs when you were a boy?”“Sure!”the rich man didn't know why he asked the question.“Then tell me this,”he said,“who planted the fig trees?”“Why! I don't know.”“You see, sir,”went on the old man,“our forefather（祖先）planted the trees for us to enjoy and I am doing the same for the people after me.”

　　The rich man was quiet and said,“You are right, my good man. We should do good things for the people after us. Thank you very much.”
