Legend has it that an apple which fell from its branches was the inspiration for Sir Isaac Newton’s discovery of gravity(引力). But now history’s famous fruit tree is paying the price of fame.

The thousands of visitors drawn to Sir Isaac’s childhood home each year could be damaging the tree. A willow barrier(圍欄)has been put around the tree. It means visitors to the 17th century Woolsthorpe Manor, near Grantham, Lincolnshire, will no longer be able to sit under its branches as Newton was said to have been doing in 1665 when “the notion of gravitation came to mind.”

The National Trust, which owns the small manor(莊園)where Newton was born in 1642, said the 2ft-high barrier was designed to preserve the tree. Official Ann Moynihan said there had been no damage so far but warned that there could soon be a problem.“Visitor numbers have gone up by around 50 percent, to 33,000 a year in three years. The more people who visit, the more the earth will become compacted(壓實(shí)) around the tree and over the roots. We just want to preserve the tree for another 400 years if we can.”She said visitors will still be able to take apples from the tree.

Visitor Chris Gwyther,37,said,“I suppose it is a pity that you can’t sit under the tree like Newton. But you can still see it and the tree is 400 years old, it needs saving for the future.”

Newton left no information saying he had been inspired by a falling apple. The story appeared in a book by French philosopher Voltaire published in 1727, the year Newton died at the age of

Thankful Thursday is a special day in our family. It’s a weekly tradition that my two little girls and I began two years ago. We go out to do charity(慈善) work.

Last Thursday we drove along a busy Houston street to give out lunch for the poor people in the street. After we ate, I ordered 15 more lunches from McDonald’s and began to give them out. We noticed a poor, old woman standing on the side of the road, asking for something to eat. We handed her our final lunch bag. Just as we got into the car she walked quickly closer to us. “Thank you very much. No one has ever done anything like this for me before,” she said with a big smile. “Well, I’m glad that we were the first,” I replied. “So, when will you eat your lunch?” I asked. She looked at me with her huge, tired brown eyes and said, “Oh honey, I’m not going to eat this. I have a little girl of my own. She loves McDonald’s, but I don’t have the money. You see, tonight she will be happy!”

I don’t know if the kids saw the tears(眼淚) in my eyes. I have asked myself many times whether our acts of kindness were too small to really change anything. But at that moment, I understood the kind lady Mother Teresa’s words: “We cannot do great things—only small things with great love.”
