6、out of her house with two chairs and threw them on the fire to keep the fire going.I stood beside my father until the fire started to go down, not knowing what to say. He said nothing either.

11、ces our color. Where we live and how we live after we are born are important too. For instance, our genes influence how fat or thin we are. But our weight depends mainly upon how much we eat and how much exercise we get. In the same way, our skin color depends to a large extent upon how much sunshin

12、e we get.When summer arrives and light-colored people go to the beaches, some will tan darkly, some will tan lightly and few will not tan at all.
