Exercise 4: Match column A with column B

The apple, a juicy fruit that grows from pink or white flowers, is cultivated widely in orchards across North America. At least two varieties of apples are cultivated together in one orchard due to the fact that the flowers of one type of apple tree must be pollinated by a different variety of apple. The point in the springtime when the apple blossoms appear is  the most critical time for apples: there hạve to be enough bees to pollinate each flower and warm enough weather to facilitate their work. Apple growers watch the temperatures anxiously at this time of year because frozen flowers or fruit spells disaster for the crop. Workers may have to get up at any hour of the night to blow away the cold air with fans, heat title orchard air with fire pots, or wet the trees down to keep the frost away.

The first step in getting apples from orchard to market is to pick them. The picking must be done carefully to ensure that the spur, which produces the fruit, is not damaged. Apples used to be collected in bushel baskets and taken to market, but today bins of apples are trucked to packing houses, where they go through many sortings before they get to title grocery store display. Packers use water to float the apples through sorting machines. As a first step, the smallest apples, called “chops,” are eliminated to make juice. Apples with many flaws, or imperfections, are called “processors”: they are used for pie slices or are made into, sauce because of their less-than-perfect appearance. The “fancy” grade apples are stored in a controlled atmosphere; adjusting the oxygen content from 20 percent to 2 percent and keeping the temperature between 31 and 32 degrees Fahrenheit keeps the apples alive but prevents overripening. The humidity is kept around 95 percent so that the apples remain crisp and fresh. Before shipping, the apples are washed, rinsed, dried, and coated with a thin film of hot wax for beautification.

Once title apples have cleared the marketplace, they are put to various uses. Apples are 87 percent water, making them great for juicing. The fresh juice that is made from apples is called cider, and this cider can be fermented into applejack. Apples are not only used to make beverages; they can also be used to make products such as apple butter, vinegar, applesauce, and one of America’s favorite desserts, apple pie.
