    Apples are packed with amazing health benefits: weight loss, heart protection, lowering your risk of illnesses, and many more. Not only are they good for you, but they taste delicious too! The only problem is that the pieces we pack for lunch are always an unpleasant brown by the time we dig them out of the fridge. That’s because polyphenol oxidase (PPO) in the fruit experiences a chemical change with oxygen (氧气) in the air.

Luckily, there is an apple you can pick up at the store that won’t turn brown for a while―the Opal apple. Opal apples are naturally low in PPO, which means they’ll stay fresh and white long after you cut them. It has been tested that after sitting out unpacked for more than six hours, the apple had hardly any browning.

You may be wondering if genetic modification (转基因) plays a role in avoiding the fruit’s browning. In fact, you may even ask if Opal apples are safe to eat because they can do something most apples can’t. But according to the Opal website, they’re the first apples to be checked by the Non-GMO Project, the gold standard for certification (证明). “We understand that some people are concerned about genetically modified organism (GMO) products and felt it was important to make it clear that the natural nonbrowning characteristic is just that―natural,” said Keith Mathews, CEO of First Fruits Marketing.

The Opal apple is actually a cross between a Golden Delicious and a Topaz apple, and it has a sweet flavor. Plus, it still has all the health benefits every other apple has. Although FirstFruits Marketing does not show nutrition (营养) facts for the Opal apples, their nutrition value should be similar, if not the same, to every other apple. If you don’t like eating brown apples, you can consider going to the supermarket for some Opal apples.

1.How is the Opal apple different from other apples?

A.It has less PPO.

B.It helps lose weight.

C.It has the attractive smell.

D.It has few spots on its skin.

2.Why is the Non-GMO Project mentioned?

A.To show the popularity of Opal apples.

B.To show Opal apples meet the safety standard.

C.To show Opal apples have a special characteristic.

D.To show the concern for GMO foods.

3.What is the author’s attitude to the Opal apple?

A.Doubtful. B.Uncaring. C.Positive. D.Careful.

4.What is the best title of the text?

A.Opal Apples―with More Nutrition?

B.Opal Apples―on the Way to Be Popular?

C.Opal Apples―A New GMO Food?

D.Opal Apples Never Brown―But Are They Safe to Eat?
