Two young trees are standing at the top of a hill. Their names are Tim and Alan. One day, it's sunny and warm. Some birds are singing in the trees. The wind blows, and the trees start talking.
两棵小树长在山顶上。它们的名字分别是蒂姆和艾伦。一天，阳光明媚，天气暖和。一些鸟儿在树上唱歌。风吹过，小树们开始交谈。
"What do you want to be when you grow up?" asks Tim.
“你长大后想成为什么？”蒂姆问道。
"I'm not sure. I think I'll choose to be a chair or a desk," answers Alan. "Maybe I want to be a toy box. I like children."
“我不确定。我想我会选择成为一把椅子或者一张桌子，”艾伦回答道。“也许我想成为一个玩具箱。我喜欢孩子。”
"What about you?" asks Alan.
“你呢？”艾伦问。
"Me?" says Tim. "I just want to be a tree. I'll be a home for birds, grow many apples and spread my seeds. And when it's sunny and hot, people and animals can stand in my shade."
“我吗？”蒂姆说，“我只想成为一棵树。我会成为鸟儿的家，结许多苹果，传播种子。天气晴朗、炎热的时候，人和动物可以站在我的树荫下。”
