“ENGLISH BRAIN-TEASERS”

 Bored while in lockdown ??, 

Well folks, let us spend a little while on what are a few English brain-teasers. 

In each of the following sentences, there is a “hidden fruit”. Let’s see if you can find them. Letters are found next to each other. No need to jump or skip or separate the sentence.

          Hoping these teasers give you something to think about, as you will.

The example is by far the easiest :-
