Unit 10 Reading Review (Extra)

Quiz Image

You'll be reading a text at a website. The quiz site won't let me put in URLs, so just put truff5 after TINYURL. All of the questions are based on this text. Remember to read the questions first, if that helps you, then go to the text.

This text has 5 paragraphs and a few words that might be unfamiliar to you. I know since you're online, you'll want to use a translator or a dictionary, but try your best BEFORE you do that.
