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 citizen
of Grant can get the instructions and begin making their own widgets. Widgets are generally produced
in small shops around the city, these small shops can be built by the carpenter's
union (whose headquarters are in town hall). After the widget is constructed, they are placed
on special carts which can deliver the widget anywhere in 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. Sometimes widgets don't turn out right, and the "rejects" are
sent to the scrap yard where they are broken down for parts or destroyed altogether. 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. Match the parts of the city (underlined) with the parts of the
cell. (1/2 point.each)
