A long time ago, there was a huge apple tree. A little boy loved to come and play around it every day.
He climbed to the tree top, ate the apples, took a nap under the shadow…1.____
     Time went by…The little boy had grown up and he no longer played around the tree. One day, the boy
came back to the tree and looked sad. "Come and play with me," the tree asked the boy." I am on longer a
kid. I don't play around trees anymore." The boy replied, "I want toys. I need money to buy them." "Sorry,
but I don't have money…but you can pick all my apples and sell them. Sp, you will have money." The boy
was so excited. 2.____ The boy didn't come back after he picked the apples. The tree was sad.
     One day, the boy returned and the tree was so excited. "Come and play with me!" the tree said. "I don't
have time to play. I have to work for my family. 3.____ Can you help me?" "Sorry, but I don't have a house.
But you can cut off my branches to build your house." So the boy cut all the branches of the tree and left
happily. The tree was glad to see him happy but the boy didn't appear since then. The tree was again lonely
and sad.
     One hot summer day, the boy returned and the tree was delighted. "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
the boat. You can sail and be happy." So the boy cut the tree trunk to make a boat. 4.____
     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. "I don't have teeth to bite." the boy replied. "No more trunk
for you to climb on." "I am too old for that now." the boy said. "I really want to give you something… the only
thing left is my dying roots." The tree said with tears. "I don't need much now, just a place to rest. I am tired
after all these years." the boy replied. "Good! Old tree roots are the best place to lean on and rest. Come here,
please sit down with me and have a rest." 5.____
