The Apple Doesn’t Fall Far From the Tree“有其父必有其子”

My dad was the best fruit farmer in town. Every autumn， his apples always won first prize（一等奖）.

This spring， dad let me take care of his apple orchard（果园）.

Son， I hope you can make this place better and better.

I worked really hard to learn how to grow the best apples ever.

This autumn， I had a big harvest（收获）.

I will keep the biggest one and send it to the contest（比赛）. We will win again！

The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. It’s over there.

Oh no， my biggest apple is gone！

The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

字面义：苹果从树上掉下来，不会滚得太远。

引申义：有其父必有其子。

例句：Sam is a writer， and so is his son， because the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree！（萨姆是作家，他的儿子也是，真是“有其父必有其子”！）

The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

Congratulations！
