(焦作市八下期末)A girl went to her father and told him that her life was too hard.She said she simply couldn't live through all the difficulties anymore. She just wanted to give up.
Her father said,“I think I know how to help you. Follow me.” They went into the kitchen. Her father put a potato, an egg, and some coffee beans (豆子) into three different pots of water. Then, he started to boil (煮) the water on the stove (炉子).
After some time, he turned the stove off and took out the potato, the egg and the beans. He then showed each of them to his daughter.
