根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Almost everyone likes to eat apples. Apples grow in nearly every part of the world. The United States produces more apples than any other country except France. The states of Washington and New York grow the most apples.   71   New York is on the east coast and Washington is on the west near Canada.

Apples are red, yellow or green. They are very popular in the United States.   72   Most American people are often too busy or too tired to cook dinner, so they often have their dinners very simply. Apple juice is also a popular drink and apple pie is the favorite sweet dish for many Americans.

  73   The trees there produce nearly five billion apples every year—one apple for every man, woman and child in the whole world.

  74   For example, “You are the apple of my eye.” means “You are actually the one I love best and care most.” In China, it is a custom in some places for the marrying couple to hold an apple in each one’s hand, promising that their marriage will be “safe” without anything bad and that their marriage will never be broken. “To apple polish” often refers to a man who fawns (奉承) on somebody for the purpose of getting some benefits. So you can easily get “apple polisher”. However, “in apple-pie order” usually has the same meaning as “in good order”.   75   In fact, it’s another saying about “compare two things that can’t be compared”.

A. The state of Washington is proud of its apples.

B. Apples play an important part in people’s health.

  There are many stories and sayings about apples.

D. Perhaps this is why “New York” is often called “Big Apple” by some people.

E. The apples in France are better than those in America.

F. Many people like to carry apples to work or to school to eat with their lunches.

G. It is likely that you hear about “compare apples and oranges”
