Question

Read the passage.

On warm summer days, I like to stay cool by making fruit salad. First, I peel and cut up the fruit. Then I put the fruit into a large bowl and add a little lemon juice. This keeps the fruit from turning brown. I also add a little bit of honey to make the salad sweet. Lastly, I mix everything together and put it in the refrigerator for about an hour. Then the fruit salad is ready to eat!

Which type of supporting detail is missing from this paragraph?

information about when the writer likes to make fruit salad
information about the type of fruit the writer uses to make fruit salad
information about how to make fruit salad
information about why the writer makes fruit salad

The best answer for this question is "information about the type of fruit the writer uses to make fruit salad."

We also do not hear anything about the fruit they add to the salad; there is no mention of apples, oranges, peaches, etc. Hope this helps.
