Output:
---
list A : [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
list A': [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]

list B :  [[1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7]]
list B':  [[1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [1006], [1007]] <-- you can see the list is changed. which is not i want.
new_list: [[1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [1006], [1007]]

list C :  [[1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7]]
list C':  [[1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7]] <-- you can see the list is NOT changed.
new_list: [[1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [1006], [1007]]

Question:
 why list B' is modified in the for loop?
