The tree was planted in the first half of the 20th century on a farm in Michigan, US. In the 1950s, the family that owned the farm kept a bull chained to it. The bull walked around the tree, pulling a heavy iron chain, which made a groove（刻沟）in the tree about a meter off the ground. The groove deepened over the years, though for whatever reason, it didnt kill the tree. After some years, the family sold the farm and took their bull with them. They cut the chain, leaving most of it hanging down from the tree. Eventually, bark（树皮）slowly covered the old chain. Then one year, disaster struck Michigan in the form of Dutch elm disease. It left a path of death across vast areas. All of the elms lining the road leading to the farm were infected and died. Everyone figured that the old elm tree would be next. There was no way the tree could last, with its age and the chain hanging off its trunk（树干）. The farms new owners considered pulling the chain out and chopping the tree up into firewood before it died. But they simply couldnt bring themselves to do it. It was as if the old tree had become a family friend, so they decided to let nature take its course. Amazingly, the tree didnt die. Year after year, it thrived（茁壮成长）. Nobody could understand why it was the only elm still standing in the whole area. Tree experts from Michigan State University came out to study the tree later, examining the scar left by the iron chain. The experts decided that it was actually the chain that saved the elms life. They reasoned that the tree must have absorbed so much iron from the chain that it became immune to Dutch elm disease. Its said that what doesnt kill you will make you stronger. So if youre ever in Michigan, look for that beautiful elm tree. Look for the wound made by the chainit serves as a reminder that even with wounds, we can still have hope. Our wounds can give us the resources we need to cope（应付）and survive. They can truly make us strong.33 .
