Question

People love oranges. They are sweet and juicy. They are in sections so it’s easy to eat them. Some oranges don’t have any seeds. Some have a thick skin and some have a thin skin.
The orange tree is very beautiful. It has a lot of shiny green leaves. The small white flowers smell very sweet. An orange tree has flowers and fruits at the same time.
There were orange trees forty hundred years ago. The oranges were very small, not like the ones today. The earliest orange trees probably came from China. Many different kinds of oranges are raised there today.
Farmers in other parts of Asia and the Middle East learned to raise oranges from the Chinese. Then they taught Europeans. The Spanish planted orange trees in the New World (North and South America) and took them to Florida first.
“Orange” is both a fruit and a color. The color of oranges is so beautiful that in English we use the name of the fruit for its color
