根据短文内容, 回答下列问题
A man was walking through the woods with his axe(斧子) when a small tree called to him. It said, "Hello, friend. Can you cut down those bigger trees? They're blocking( 遮挡)the sun. It is so crowded here that I have no room to spread my roots(根). I can't feel the wind. "
The little tree held out its tiny leaves. It looked so sad. It continued, "If those trees were gone, I'd be able to grow. A year from now, I'd be the biggest tree here. But for now, I'm just a small tree. "
The man thought for a while and agreed. He walked over to the bigger trees and started cutting them down. Soon, he cleared lots of space around the small tree. Now it would be able to feel the sun and wind. It would grow bigger and become the biggest tree in that area.
But something else happened instead. The tree was nearly dead—without the bigger trees to protect it. The sun's heat came first, burning the small tree, which wasn't used to so much sunlight. Heavy wind and rain came , and the small tree was hit by the storm.
"You've been quite foolish, " said a snake that saw what had happened. "You brought this on yourself. If you'd left the bigger trees alone, the sun and the storm wouldn't have hurt you so badly. They protected you. If you had just waited longer, you would have grown to be just as big as them. You'd be strong. But now, you're nearly gone. "
"You just take a one-sided view( 观 点)of the problem, " the snake told the small tree. "You close your eyes to something the bigger trees do for you, but stare at the bad ones. "
