摘要：苹果籽约翰尼的真名叫约翰•恰普曼，由于在边疆地区种了大量苹果树而被后人怀念。他少年时代的事迹不详，但后来据说他用了50年时间走遍宾西法尼亚，俄亥俄和印第安纳，到处播种苹果树。
Johnny Appleseed is the nickname of a man whose real name was John Chapman, an American pioneer who planted large numbers of apple trees along the early frontier. Nothing is known about his childhood. According to legend, for almost fifty years, Johnny Appleseed walked through Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana. Everywhere he went he carried bags of apple seeds and planted them. He also gave apple seeds and apple saplings to everyone he met. He is said to have planted thousands of seeds during his travels. Thousands of settlers came to know this strange, lonely man. He had a tin pot as a hat, a coffee sack as a shirt, and no shoes, looking like a scarecrow. Some nights he spent at farmhouses, and told stories for his supper. Other times he camped out alone in the fields and woods. No harm ever came to Johnny Appleseed in his lonely travel through the wilderness. The Indians knew him and treated him as a friend, and even the wild animals left him alone. Johnny Appleseed was a religious man, and he loved nature. He believed it his duty to go up and down the land planting apple seeds. He wanted Americans to enjoy the beauty and delicious fruit of the apple trees.
