问题     It is well that the commonest fruit should be also the best. Of the virtues of the orange I have not room fully to speak. It has properties of health giving, as that it cures influenza and establishes the complexion. It is clean, for whoever handles it on its way to your table, 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. The pip can be flicked at your enemies, and quite a small piece of peel makes a slide for an old gentleman.
    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. I grudge every marriage in that it means a fresh supply of orange blossom, the promise of so much golden fruit cut short. However, the world must go on.

选项

答案     橘子的优点之多,让我难尽其详。橘子有益健康,可以治疗流感,并能美容养颜。橘子非常干净,不论是谁将它端上你的餐桌,也只是触到了它的表皮,即它的外衣,而我们在享用橘子时这层外衣是要被剥掉丢弃在餐厅的。橘子圆圆的,是板球的绝妙替代品,孩子们可以拿它当板球玩儿。橘子核儿可以弹击你的敌人,一小片儿橘子皮就可以让一位老先生滑个趔趄。
    然而,倘若橘子没有如此甜美可口的味道,所有这些优点将不值一提。我不敢再纵谈橘子的美味了,我已被它俘虏。我甚至因此抵触每一个婚礼,因为婚礼上要用掉许多新鲜的橘子花,这就意味着很多金黄色的果实要半路夭折。但是不管怎样,婚礼还是要进行,生活还是要继续。
