[英語原文] Sharing the Apples

Harry was given two apples， a small one and a large one， by his Mum. “Share them with your sister. ”she said.

So Harry gave the small one to his little sister and started touching into the large one.

“If Mum had given them to me， Id have given you the large one and had the small one myself.”said his sister，

“Well， ”said Harry，“thats what youve got， so what are you worrying about？”
