Let's have some apple.
来吃点苹果吧。
这种削苹果的削皮刀叫Peeler。
This is a peeler. We use the peeler to remove the skin of the apple.
Let's peel the apple first!
先来削苹果吧。
I am going to use this peeler to peel the apple.
我会用这把削皮刀削苹果。
果皮到底是 Skin 还是 Peel?
Peel 只适用于被削下来的果皮，假如果皮没被削下，仍然在水果上，就要用Skin, 而Skin 则是两者皆可。
Apple skin is edible(可食用的). It is a great source of fiber(纤维).
苹果皮是可以吃的，是很好的纤维来源。
However, there is pesticide (农药) residue (残留) on the apple's skin.
If you want to eat it with the skin, we should soak the apple in the water for twenty minutes.
可是苹果皮上有农药残留在上面，如果你想吃连皮吃，我们应该把苹果在水里泡二十分钟。
There is a bruise.
这里有个瘀青。
I am going to cut the apple into slices.
我会把苹果切成片状。
I am going to cut the apple into cubes.
我会把苹果切成小块。
This is the apple core.
这是苹果的核心。 苹果可以怎样形容? 可以试试用下面的形容词：
This apple is so sweet(甜).
This apple is tart. 注意，苹果的那种酸味不用sour,　而是用tart!
Sweet-tart flavor. 甜酸味适中
Sweet with a hint of tartness. 甜中带一丝酸味
This apple has a tangy(味道强烈) flavor.
This apple is so juicy(多汁的).
This apple is a bit old(老).
This apple is fresh(新鲜的).
This apple is crisp(脆).
This apple is crunchy(脆).
Crisp 和 Crunchy有什么区别?
大家可以想象Crisp 是薯片的脆，非常易碎，而Crunchy是坚果的脆，较硬，嘴嚼时会发出很多声音
Crisp 的相反就是tender了
This apple is tender(软).
This apple is ripe(熟透).
This apple is unripe(未熟). 苹果的生命周期
