John and Bob were neighbours. For more than 30 years, they had been getting along very well. But one day their good relationship broke.

One morning John woke up to find a stream(小溪) between the two farms. “It must be Bob,” John thought. Then John met a carpenter(木匠).

John said. “My neighbour Bob dug(挖) a stream between the two farms. I want you to build a fence(栅栏)—an 8-foot fence. I don’t want to see his place or his face any more.”

The carpenter said, “I think I know what to do, sir, and I’ll be able to do a job that makes you happy.”About sunset when the farmer returned, the carpenter had just finished his job. The farmer’s eyes opened wide. There was no fence there at all!

It was a bridge! And the neighbour, Bob, was coming across, with his hand outstretched(伸出). “Hi, John! You’re quite a guy to build this bridge!”

Then they met in the middle, taking each other’s hands. “I’m terribly sorry for what I have said and done. We should be good to each other,” said Bob.

Later they turned to see the carpenter, who was ready to go. “No, wait! Stay a few days. I have a lot of other jobs for you,” said John. “I’d love to stay,” the carpenter said, “but I have more bridges to build.”

One day, his friend gave Smith a young apple tree and told him to take it home and planted.

The farmer was pleased with the gift, but when he got home, he did not know where to plant He thought and thought. Finally at night he planted the tree in his wood where no one could see it. But without sunlight and good soil, the tree soon died.

"What's the difference?" the farmer said angrily. "If I had planted it near the road, strangers would have stolen the fruit. If I had planted it in one of my fields, my neighbors would have come at night and stolen some of the apples. If I had planted it near my house, my own children would have taken the fruit,"
