25、contain extra calories and sugar.可知,荔枝热量较高,减肥的人不宜食用,故选D项。3答案与解析:B细节理解题。根据Star fruit部分Fresh star fruits are available year round.和Dragon fruit部分Dragon fruits are available most any time of the year.可知答案。4答案与解析:A细节理解题。根据对这四种水果的食用方法介绍可知,它们都可以直接食用,故选A项。B5答案与解析:A根据第一段中的“My motivation for starting our fam
26、ily tradition of reading in the car was purely selfish: I could not bear listening to A Sesame Street Christmas for another 10 hours.”可知,作者每次出门都在车上看书,因为她无法听十个小时的A Sesame Street Christmas。看书是为了让旅程更美好。A项正确。6答案与解析:C根据第二段中的“When I began to read aloud the tale of the boy.my three kids argued and wrestled
27、 in their seats.
