“我太忙了，没时间爬树。”男孩说，“我必须为我的家庭工作。我的家人需要一间房子，你可以给我一间房子吗？”

"Sorry, but I do not have any house. But you can chop off my branches to build your house."

"No problem, I do not have teeth to bite." the man replied...
“我的牙齿也咬不动苹果了。”男孩说。

"No more branches for you to swing, no more trunk for you to climb on."
“我的树干没了。”树说，“你也不能爬上来了。”
"I am too old for that now." the man said.
“我太老了，也爬不动了。”男孩说。

“I really want to give you something… but the only thing left is my dying roots” The trees said with tears.
