Question

A girl went to her father to ask for his suggestion. She was having a        time in life, and it seemed that as soon as one problem disappeared another one         in its place.
Her father, a chef, took her into the kichen. He poured water into three pans and put them on to boil. After the water boiled, he put some carrots into the first pan, some         into the second pan and coffee into the last one. He waited without saying a word.
After 20 minutes, her father turned         the stove(爐子), took out the carrots and the eggs and put them in a bowl. He poured the coffee into a cup.
He asked his daughter, “Dear,         do you see?”
“Carrots, eggs, and coffee”, she replied.
“Touch the carrots,” he told her. She did and felt that the carrots were       . After that he asked her to take an egg and break it. She found that the egg was hard.       , her father asked her to taste the coffee.
She asked, “What’s the          , Father?”
Her father said, “As you see, each thing reacted(起反應) differently to the boiling water. The strong and hard carrots became soft and weak after boiling. The fragile(脆弱的) eggs became hard after being cooked. The coffee beans were very special, but they changed in the water, too.”
“Who are you?”asked her father. “When trouble          at your door, how do you react? Are you carrots, eggs,          coffee?”
