Unit 33 My Favorite Fruit Located in the subtropics, Taiwan is abundant with a variety of fruits all the year round. Fruits are a daily necessity because they are rich in vitamins which we cannot do without. And, because of their abundance, they are sold at a reasonable price. Of Taiwan's various fruits, watermelon is my favorite not only because it is sweet but because it is juicy. When the summer heat is scorching, having a slice of watermelon quenches my thirst right away. Mangos, longans, and strawberries are also to my liking. With all of these fruits around, how lucky I am to live in Taiwan!
