The article "Orange You Glad" by Wanda Biederman is all about oranges: the history, varieties and products that are made from them. Oranges are not known to grow
wildly. They likely originated in Asia, either in India or in China. Spanish travelers
brought the fruit to the Americas in the 1500s. There are bitter oranges and sweet
oranges. I like to use bitter oranges to make jelly. Orange juice is made from oranges,
and orange oil, which is used to flavor foods, is made of sweet oranges. Oranges are
packed with vitamin C, a fact that historically made them a popular food among
sailors. Vitamin C helps heal wounds and repair bones. The article concludes with the
idea that people should eat an orange, and not an apple, every day.
Which of the following details from the passage does NOT belong in the summary?
"They likely originated in Asia

covert: hidden or secret

candid: truthful and straightforward

what i get from these phrases is covert means undercover or underground and that's where the flower is in april. on the other hand, may is the month where flowers start to bloom and thats the reason why candid is being used as a word to describe the blossoming period of a flower.

hope this answer you.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
