Question

閱讀所給短文, 并根據(jù)文章后的題目要求進行簡答。
[1] Of the fruits of the year I give my vote to the orange. In the first place it is available if not in actual fact, at least in the greengrocer’s shop. On the days when dessert is a name given to a handful of chocolates and a little preserved ginger, then the orange, however sour, comes nobly to the rescue; and on those other days of plenty when cherries and strawberries riot together upon the table, the orange, sweeter than ever ,is still there to hold its own. Bread and butter, beef and mutton, eggs and bacon, are not more necessary to an ordered existence than the orange.
[2]  It is well known that the commonest fruit should be also the best. Of the virtues of the orange I have no room fully to speak. It has properties of health giving. It is clean, for whoever handles it, he doesn’t eat it directly but handles its outer covering, its top coat, which is left in the hall. It is round, and forms an excellent substitute with the young for a cricket ball. But all this would count nothing had not the orange such delightful qualities of taste. I dare not let myself go upon this subject. I am a slave to its sweetness.
[3] Yet with the orange we go live year in and year out. That speaks well for the orange. The fact is that there is an honesty about the orange which appeals to all of us. If it is going to be bad and it begins to go bad from the outside, not from           . How many an innocent-looking apple is harboring a worm in the bud. But the orange has no secret faults. Its outside is a mirror of its inside, and if you are quick you can tell the shop man so before he slips it into the bag.

試題分析：本文主要講了作者最喜歡吃的水果就是桔子。作者詳細說明了桔子的優(yōu)點既甜又干凈以及吃橘子的好處。
小題1:根據(jù)全文內(nèi)容以及主題句Of the fruits of the year I give my vote to the orange.，可知這篇文章主要講了桔子是我最喜歡吃的水果。
小題2:根據(jù)and on those other days of plenty when cherries and strawberries riot together upon the table, the orange, sweeter than ever ,is still there to hold its own. Bread and butter, beef and mutton, eggs and bacon, are not more necessary to an ordered existence than the orange.以及It is clean, for whoever handles it, he doesn’t eat it directly but handles its outer covering, its top coat, which is left in the hall.可知這一部分主要講了桔子的優(yōu)點。
小題3:根據(jù)If it is going to be bad and it begins to go bad from the outside,可知這里應(yīng)該是和outside相反的，所以填the inside。
小題4:根據(jù)It is clean, for whoever handles it, he doesn’t eat it directly but handles its outer covering, its top coat, which is left in the hall.可知桔子很干凈的原因是我們用手拿橘子皮。
小題5:根據(jù)Yet with the orange we go live year in and year out. That speaks well for the orange. The fact is that there is an honesty about the orange which appeals to all of us.可知這里“it”，指的是“桔子”。
