Read the text and choose the correct answer I grew up in India, where the mango is known as ‘the King of Fruits’. Mangoes always bring back happy childhood memories because all graduations from school or college were marked by a mango and ice cream party, and all the family would be asked round for a celebration. It was customary to serve up two different varieties of mango. The sweeter, yellow-skinned fruits were my favourite, whereas my sisters preferred the green-skinned ones that had a sharper taste. We usually wore flowing white dresses called ‘sarees’ on these occasions and had white jasmine flowers in our hair. The mango was either peeled and cut into neat chunks to go with the ice cream, or it was cut into long thin slices with the skin still attached. I wasn’t very keen on the ice cream, actually, and liked to eat my mango in the old-fashioned way, pulling the flesh away from the skin with my teeth. Even now, that’s how I eat them. There was one problem with this method, however. Good ripe mangoes are full of juice, and so I often remember spraying my white saree with juice.
