A girl complained to her father about her hard life. She didn't know what she had to do and wanted to1 . She felt tired for fighting and fighting. One problem had been finished but another came.
Her father, a cook, took her2 the kitchen. He poured water into three pans(锅)and boiled(煮)it. When the water was boiling, in the first pan he put some carrots, in the3 he put some eggs and in the last he put some coffee. He4 them for a few minutes without any words.
The girl closed her mouth and waited impatiently, not knowing5 her father was doing that. After about 20 minutes, her father turned6 the stove, took out the carrots and put them in a bowl. He took out the eggs and put7 in another bowl. After that the8 was poured into a cup. Turning back to his daughter, he asked, "What do you9 ?" "Carrots, eggs, and coffee, " she answered.
Her father told her to10 her eyes and let her touch the carrots. She did and felt that the carrots were soft. After that he asked her to take the eggs and11 them. Then, she got the eggs, cooked and hard. At last, the father asked her to smell the coffee. "What's the meaning, Father?" He12 that each had suffered the same unlucky experience— the boiling water, but13 had a different reaction(反应). The strong and hard carrots had become soft and weak after being in the boiling water. The eggs became hard14 being cooked. The coffee was very special and it changed the wa­ter. "Who are you?" asked her father, "When calamity(厄运)15 your door, what's your reaction? Are you carrots, eggs, or coffee?"
