　　“A fig tree?” the rich man was very surprised, “Why, how old are you, may I ask?”

　　“I am ninety years old.”

　　“What!” cried the rich man, “You’re ninety years old. You are planting a very young treenow and it’ll take years to give fruit. You certainly don’t hope to live long enough to get anyfruit from this tree. ” The old man looked around the garden. Then he said with a smile, “Tellme, sir. Did you eat figs when you were a boy? ”“Sure,” the man did not know why he askedthis question. “Then tell me this,” he said, “Who planted the fig trees?” “Why-why? I don’tknow.” “You see, sir.” went on the old man,“Our forefathers(祖先) planted trees for us to enjoyand I am doing the same for the people after me.”

　　The rich man was quiet and said, “You are right，my good man. We should do some thingsfor the people after us. Thank you very much.” Then he rode away.
