The farmer was pleased with the gift, but when he got home, he did not know where to plant it.He was afraid that if he planted the tree near the road, strangers would steal the fruit. If he planted the tree in one of his fields, his neighbors would come at night and steal some of the apples. If he planted the tree near his house, his children would take the fruit.Finally he planted the tree in his woods(树林) where no one could see it. But without sunlight and good soil, the tree soon died.Later the friend asked the farmer why he had planted the tree in such a poor place. “Whats the difference? the farmer said angrily.
