One afternoon,my son Adam 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,__1__ you can just wait until we make a quick __2__ at the grocery store.I have something __3__ to show you.”

At grocery store,we __4__ some apples-red,green and yellow ones.Back home,I told Adam,“It’s time to __5__ your question.” I put one apple of each __6__ on the table.Then I looked at Adam,who had a __7__ look on his face.

“People are like apples.They come in all __8__ colors,shapes and sizes.On the __9__,some of the apples may not __10__ look as delicious as the others.” As I was talking,Adam was __11__ each one carefully.

Then,I took each of the apples and peeled(削皮)them,__12__ them back on the table,but __13__ a different place.

“Okay,Adam,tell me which is which.”

He said,“I __14__ tell.They all look same now.” “Take a bite of __15__.See if that helps you __16__ which one is which.”

 He took __17__,and then a huge smile came cross his face...“People are __18__ like apples! They are all different,but once you __19__ the outside,they’re pretty much the same on the inside.”

He totally __20__ it.I didn’t need to say or do anything else.
