770　A tree's not much of a present 一棵树也算不上什么礼物

My family wanted to do something to honor my son, who had been sent to Iraq. With the help of my four-year-old grandson, I tied a yellow ribbon on the tree in my front yard. “Why are we doing this, Grandma?” he asked. “It's for your uncle,” I said. He remarked quietly, “A tree's not much of a present.”

我们全家想要做点什么来表示对我儿子的敬意。他被派到伊拉克去了。在我四岁孙子的帮助下，我把一条黄绸带绑在前院的一棵树上。他问我：“奶奶，我们为什么要这么做呀？”我说：“这是给你叔叔的。”他轻声评论说：“一棵树也算不上什么礼物呀。”
