One Saturday afternoon, my daughter Alice asked me, “Are all people the same even if they are different in color?”
I thought for a minute, and then I said, “I’ll explain to you if we can make a quick 35 at the grocery store. I have something 36 to show you. ”
At the grocery store, we 37 some apples --- red, green and yellow ones. Back home, I told Alice, “It’s time to answer your question.” I put one apple of each 38 on the table. Then I looked at Alice, who had a 39 look on her face.
“People are like apples. They come in all 40 colors, shapes and sizes. Some of the apples may not even look as the others. ” As I was talking, Alice was 41 each one carefully.
Then, I took each of the apples and peeled（削皮）them, placing them back on the table, but 42 a different place.
“Okay, Alice, tell me which is which.”
