Sorry I am still lost.

Noah gave you a good breakdown to follow however...

So I am suppose to use a string?

You are supposed to use a string as a parameter of your function and process it to generate a new string which you return from the function.

Do you understand the terms:
parameter
return from the function

def ReceiveAndReturn():
       str="I have 5 Apples and 6 oranges";
      print "str._add1"

This creates a fixed string inside the function, it does not receive the string as argument. And the print statement is very confused. Do you understand the difference between
- a string literal
- a string variable
- a string method
- calling a string method

HTH,
