   The old man pointed to(指着)a string (细绳) between a big strong tree and a thin young one.

  “Please untie (解开) that string.” said the old man. “But first pull the string tight so that(以便于)the young tree is straight again.” The young man did so. He untied the string and only found that the young tree bent(弯)over to one side.
