The pineapple is a tropical fruit with a unique look. It got its name because it looked like a pine cone. Although most of the production of pineapple takes place in Hawaii, this was not always the case. This is because the pineapple is native to South America. It was brought back to Europe on Christopher Columbus’ second voyage. From there, it spread in popularity all over the world.
Not until the early 1900s did cultivation of the fruit begin in Hawaii. James Dole helped distribute pineapples in the U.S. He started a pineapple plantation in Oahu, one of the islands of Hawaii. He also began canning pineapples with the help of machines. This helped make pineapples affordable and available to the masses.

Which of these sentences is an appropriate paraphrase?
A.
A pineapple has a very special look for a fruit. It got its name because it looked like a pine cone. Most people think that the pineapple is a native plant of Hawaii; however, it came from South America.
B.
The pineapple fruit comes from South America but is popular everywhere. James Dole grew and canned pineapples in Hawaii. This made them easy to find and buy in grocery stores.
C.
Pineapples are native to South America, but they were brought back to Europe on Christopher Columbus' second voyage. After Columbus introduced the pineapple, it became very popular.
D.
Not until the early 1900s did cultivation begin in Hawaii. James Dole began a pineapple plantation in Oahu. This is where he also canned them with the help of machines.
