Apples are red, yellowor green. They are very popular in the United States.   72   MostAmerican people are often too busy or too tired to cook dinner, so they oftenhave their dinners very simply. Apple juice is also a popular drink and applepie is the favorite sweet dish for many Americans.

  73   The trees thereproduce nearly five billion apples every year—one apple for every man, womanand child in the whole world.

  74   For example,“You are the apple of my eye.” means “You are actually the one I love best andcare most.” In China, it is a custom in some places for the marrying couple tohold an apple in each one’s hand, promising that their marriage will be “safe”without anything bad and that their marriage will never be broken. “To applepolish” often refers to a man who fawns (奉承) on somebody for thepurpose of getting some benefits. So you can easily get “apple polisher”.However, “in apple-pie order” usually has the same meaning as “in good order”.   75   Infact, it’s another saying about “compare two things that can’t be compared”.
