FRUITS

The Bureau of Agriculture is planning to regulate the distribution of various kinds of agricultural produce, such that the prices of the produce in the market can be controlled. Imagine that you belong to a panel of advisors for the Department of Agriculture to provide help in drafting the regulation. In the section for fruits, you want to include all kinds of fruit in the regulation, but not other kinds of agricultural produce, which would be covered in other sections. Because the regulation affects farmers and distributing agencies nationwide, a clear categorization of fruit will thus ensure a fair and reasonable regulation.

Consider each of the following items, and decide whether acting in the panel of advisors, you would classify the item in the category of fruit.

Circle ’Y’ if you think the item should be included in the category.

Circle ’N’ if you think the item should not be included in the category.

Circle ’Ø’ if you don’t know the meaning of the word.

You have to choose between ’Y’ and ’N’ even if you find it difficult to decide.

Circle ’Ø’ only when you don’t know the meaning of the word.
