- Let's start with the easiest one, - said the psychologist and put wax fruits on the table from a vase. - An apple, a pear, an orange, an apricot. How can you call it all in one word?
Julia, silently, lowered her eyes.
- Let's go on. Here's a cucumber, a tomato, a radish, a potato, an onion. What do we call it in one word?
Julia bit her lip.
- Strawberries, raspberries, cherries... What are they all called? You don't know?

- I think it's too early for you to go to school," said the psychologist to Yulia's mother. - Wait a year, tutor the girl. She doesn't know the most basic things!
Her mother looked at Yulia's face with surprise:
- Julenka, don't you know what all this is called by one word?

- А! I remember! - the girl glowed. - Moulages!
