Explanation:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opekta

"Opekta was a business run from 1933 to 1953 by Anne Frank's father Otto Frank, which distributed a pectin-based gelling preparation, to be used in jam making. It traded from the building in which they hid from persecution during the Nazi Occupation of the Netherlands.

"The Opekta company was based in Cologne when Otto Frank, then residing in Germany, was appointed to aid their expansion into The Netherlands. Frank had considered moving his family there after the election of Adolf Hitler and the rise of Nazism, so accepted the post and moved alone to Amsterdam to find accommodation for his family and premises for the company. He had briefly managed a large rival firm, Pomosin, which traded pectin to factories from the Dutch town of Utrecht but decided that retail trade would be more lucrative in the Dutch market than wholesale. His franchise for the Amsterdam branch of Opekta was established in September 1933."

http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/安妮·法蘭克

"安妮‧法蘭克1929年出生於德國法蘭克福市。她是奧圖法蘭克(Otto Frank)一家的次女,也是么女。 其家中成員還包括母親艾迪斯(Edith Holländer)與姊姊瑪格特(Margot Frank) 。她出生時名為Anneliese Marie,但家人和朋友都以暱稱"Anne"來稱呼她. 有時其父也會叫她 "Annelein" ("小 Anne")。

"法蘭克一家住在一個猶太人與非猶太人雜居的同化社區中, 而安妮和其他在這種環境下生活的小孩一樣,經常接觸到不同信仰的人士(如天主教徒和新教徒),以及其他猶太裔人。法蘭克一家信奉猶太教的一分支—猶太教改革派,此教只遵守部份原猶太教條,而忽略及摒棄了大量原猶太教傳統。安妮的母親艾迪斯是一個虔誠的教徒, 而父親奧圖在第一次世界大戰時曾出仕於德國政府,並且獲授勳。性格上奧圖熱衷於追求知識,所以對安妮及其姊瑪格特也經常鼓勵她們多閱讀。"

1933年3月13日, 在法蘭克福進行了市議會選舉,由希特勒領導的納粹黨勝出。反猶太主義在此時便迅速擴張起來,使法蘭克一家開始擔心繼續留在德國會對自身安全構成危險。在接近年尾時, 艾迪斯便帶著安妮與瑪格特到亞琛的外母家中居住,而奧圖則繼續留在法蘭克福, 直至他收到在荷蘭阿姆斯特丹開設公司的邀請,便決定搬到那邊去打理生意和為家人安排新住所。

奧圖開設了一家名為"Opekta Works"的公司,負責批發由各種水果提鍊出來的果膠。 他在阿姆斯特丹近郊的"Merwedeplein"區替家人找到了新住所。1934年2月, 艾迪斯帶著安妮與瑪格特搬到新住所,而且也重新為兩姊妹安排學校。姊姊瑪格特入讀了一所公立學校,而安妮則入讀了蒙特梭利式教育學校(Montessori School) 。兩姊妹在學業上各有專長,瑪格特比較精於算術及數學,而安妮在讀寫上比較優異。其中一個當時安妮的朋友Hannah Goslar憶述,安妮在作業時經常會用手蓋著答案,以不被其他同儕藉故抄襲,而且也不會跟其他同學一起討論。 但是這些作業後來卻沒有保留下來。 同時,安妮和瑪格特在個性上也有著明顯差別。瑪格特在舉止上較文雅,保守和勤奮,而安妮則較健談,外向和充滿活力。
