5. Warm Up Question
In a far away city called Grant City, the main export and production product is the steel widget. Everyone in the town has something to do with steel widget making and the entire town is designed to build and export widgets. The town hall has the instructions for widget making, widgets come in all shapes and sizes and any sizes and any citizen of Grant can get the instructions and begin making their own widgets. Widgets are generally produced in small shops located around the city.
After the widget is constructed, they are exported outside of the city. In order for a widget to be exported, the carts take the widget to the postal office, where the widgets are packaged and labeled for export. The town powers the widget shops and carts from a hydraulic dam that is in the city. The entire city is enclosed by a large wooden fence, only the postal trucks (and citizens with proper passports) are allowed outside the city.
Use your cell notes packet for help. Match the bold parts of the city with the parts of the cell. You may work with a partner (someone next to you).
