So he sent one in winter, one in spring, one in summer, and one in autumn. Although the sons felt at their father's words, they did as they were told. After a , the father asked them what they had seen.
The first son, who had gone in winter, answered that the tree was bare(光秃秃的）and ugly.
The second son, who had gone in spring, said,“No! It was with new green leaves. The tree looked full of .”
The third son, who had gone in summer, his head, and said,“No! The pear tree was full of flowers. They smelled so sweet and so beautiful.”
“There were many pears no flowers on the tree,” the fourth son, who had gone in autumn, disagreed,“I saw the joy of a good harvest(丰收).”
The man then said to his sons that they were all right. They got answers because each of them had seen only one season in the life of the pear tree.
“You cannot judge(评判）a tree, a person or your life by just one season. If you in your winter, you will miss the hope of your spring, the beauty of your summer and the harvest of your autumn.”
