Question Description
Group QuestionA passage is followed by questions pertaining to the passage. Read the passage and answer the questions. Choose the most appropriate answer.Mandarin Oranges (C. reticulata) tend to be the hardest of the common Citrus species and can withstand short periods down to as cold as -10C, but realistically temperatures not falling below -2C are required for successful cultivation. Tangerines, tangors and yuzu can be grown outside, even in regions with more marked sub-zero degrees in winter, although this may affect fruit quality. A few hardy hybrids can withstand temperatures well below freezing, but do not produce quality fruit.Lemons can be commercially grown in cooler-summer/moderate-winter coastal Southern California, because sweetness is neither attained nor expected in retail lemon fruit. The related Trifoliate Orange (Poncirus trifoliata) can survive below -20C; its fruits are astringent and inedible unless cooked but a few better-tasting cultivars and hybrids have been developed.The trees thrive in a consistently sunny, humid environment with fertile soil and adequate rainfall or irrigation. Abandoned trees in valleys may suffer and yet survive the dry summer of Central Californias Inner Coast Ranges. Though broadleaved, they are evergreen and do not drop leaves except when stressed. The stems of many varieties have large sharp thorns. The trees flower in the spring, and fruit is set shortly afterward. Fruit begins to ripen in fall or early winter months, depending on cultivar, and develops increasing sweetness afterward. Some cultivars of tangerines ripen by winter. Some, such as the grapefruit, may take up to eighteen months to ripen.An orangery was a feature of royal and aristocratic residences through the 17th and 18th centuries.The Orangery at the Palace of the Louvre, 1617, inspired imitations that were not eclipsed until the development of the modern greenhouse in the 1840s. In the United States, the earliest surviving orangery is at the Tayloe House, Mount Airy, Virginia. George Washington had an orangery at Mount Vernon.Q. Based on the information provided in the passage, which of the following statements is most likely to be true?a)Mandarin oranges can survive prolonged temperatures - from as low as -2C to -10C - though they need high temperatures for successful cultivation.b)It doesnt affect tangerine fruit quality if grown in regions with marked sub-zero winter temperatures.c)Moderate temperatures probably dont help citrus fruits attain sweetness; thus lemons can be cultivated in moderate Southern California temperatures as they dont have to be sweet.d)Trifoliate Orange can survive in inclement temperatures and yield better-tasting cultivars.Correct answer is option 'C'.
