【5】G

【解析】

試題分析：本文為一篇說明文，胡蘿卜是全世界最受歡迎的蔬菜之一，可以有多種烹調(diào)方法，只要從土壤中拔出洗干凈后就可以吃了。而談到胡蘿卜，人們腦海里浮現(xiàn)的總是長條狀、細(xì)細(xì)的、橙色的樣子，事實上，胡蘿卜有各種大小和形狀，而且不是所有的胡蘿卜都是橙色的。

【1】F考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。根據(jù)前一句They taste good知道這里是描述胡蘿卜的好處，結(jié)合主語使用的是they，可以得出答案是F，故選F。

【2】A考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。根據(jù)前一句long，thin可知這里描述的是大小，也就是size，故選A。

【3】D考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。根據(jù)后一句使用的詞是conditions和taste good，可知答案應(yīng)包含這兩個詞，故選D。

【4】E考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。根據(jù)后一句的描述顏色越亮味道越好，可以得出答案需要包含顏色和成熟，故選E。

【5】G考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。根據(jù)后一句的winter，可以得出答案需要包含winter，故選D。
