Well an apple is a good start.
The first thing you have to understand is that Curvy is a lathe modeler.
It makes lathe objects and also makes line objects and what's known as lofts as a secondary.
Since most lathes work in the round so to speak, you cannot make anything that is cubical in nature.
The very best thing for you to do is go to the tutorial section here and download the UserGuide and peruse what tuts are there.
Then, if you have any questions, we'll be here. You must do the User Guide first. I could go on and on but there's no sense in my writing what's already written.
Since you are new to modeling, I would google lathes and lofts and read up on those two model types.
