Please read the story carefully,then translate the red sentences and tell me what are you thinking about when you read the whole story~Don't be shy,just make your imagination fly in your sky!

   A tall upright  tree appreciates its body and it is proud of it.   One day, a woodpecker stopped by the tree. The woodpecker heard the voices of many insects eating in the trunk. So the woodpecker pecked a hole in the tree trunk with its long beak, ready to eat the insects.
   The tree was very angry. It could not tolerate that its beautiful branches were destroyed into many holes. So the tree scolded the woodpecker and put it away.
   The trunk of the tree gradually grew larger and there were more and more insects. They constantly gnawed at the trunk, gradually eating it out.
   One day, when there was a strong wind blowing, it blew down the tree.

     一棵树为了自己的美丽而不让啄木鸟吃虫子，最后枝干只能被虫子吃空，这是由心而生的，是心里上的疾病。而反之，当枝干长虫子时，如果大树从心里感谢啄木鸟吃掉这些虫子，愿意让啄木鸟吃掉这些虫子，那它就不会到最后因为虫子过多而枝干被吃空。 身体上的疾病是可以治疗的，但是当心理上有疾病而又不愿意治疗的话，那么心里上的疾病比省体上的疾病更危险。这与内因和外因是同样的道理。
