You’re lost in the woods, in the sea or on the mountain. You have your smart phone with
you. At this time, don’t worry as you can use the following apps on your phone to get help.
BootPrint Survival

signal. If and when you find yourself lost and without a cell phone signal, just open up Boot
Print Survival, which tells you the direction and distance to the last place where you had a
signal. Then it’s simply a matter of finding your way back.
Wild Edibles
“Wildman” Steve Brill is an experienced explorer and naturalist who poured his

Clocking 16 hours, 46 minutes, nine seconds, the athlete Chris Nikic didn’t finish with
the shortest time when he recently completed his first Iron Man Race, but he did quite well.
After swimming 2.4 miles, the 21-year-old Floridian cycled 112 miles. Even after
suffering a fall from his bike during the second leg of the race, he called on his inner strength
to get back up, keep going and get the job done. And then he ran a 26.2-mile marathon to
become the first competitor with Down’s Syndrome(唐氏综合征) in the world to successfully
cross the finish line in the history of the Iron Man Race. For his efforts, Nikic also earned
himself a place in the Guinness Book of World Records.
“To Nikic, this race was more than just a finish line and a celebration for the success,” his
dad said. The race has served as a chance to become one step closer to his goal of living a
normal life. It’s about being an example to other kids and families that face similar difficulties.
Those with Down’s Syndrome will be prompted to live a life like normal persons.
Nikic trained between four and six hours a day to prepare for the event, and that training
paid off.
Goal set and achieved, Nikic posted on Instagram, where he has 33,000 new followers.
“Time to set a new and bigger goal for 2021.”
One of Nikic’s biggest fans, all-time tennis great Billie Jean King, tweeted the perfect
response: “No limits. No boundaries. Keep dreaming big and going for it!”
As for that medal he won for completing the race, he gifted it to his loving mom. With
hope of competing in the 2022 Special Olympics scheduled in Orlando, it looks as if Chris
Nikic has plenty of big dreams yet to come true.
24. What did Nikic’s performance during Iron Man Race prove?
A. He is strong. B. He is confident. C. He is kind. D. He is careful.
25. What does the underlined word “prompted” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Praised. B. Surprised. C. Supported. D. Encouraged.
26. Why did Billie Jean King write those words?
A. He wanted to make Nikic famous.
B. He wanted to encourage Nikic.
C. He wanted to show respect for Nikic.
D. He wanted to show his relationship with Nikic.
27. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Chris Nikic encourages people to exercise
B. Chris Nikic won first place in Iron Man Race
C. Athlete with Down’s Syndrome makes history
D. Special Iron Man Race was held for special athletes

TAPintoTV visited one of the last remaining pencil factories in America: Musgrave
Pencil Company in Shelbyville, Tennessee. Although there are changes in American
manufacturing and the technology is developing fast, Musgrave is still a healthy business.
They spoke with Henry Hulan of Musgrave about how pencils are made, the long history of
pencil-making in Central Tennessee, and the lasting popularity of the pencil in the digital era.
Henry Hulan is the grandson of the founder of Musgrave Pencil Co., James Musgrave,
who is commonly referred to as “Colonel Musgrave”. James Musgrave founded the company
in 1916.
James developed an innovative way to make pencils: the pencil slat. Grooves(凹槽) are
cut into thin pieces of wood called slats, graphite(石墨) cores are laid into the grooves, and
lastly, another grooved slat is glued on top. All three layers are pressed together, then shaved
and separated into individual pencils.
Interestingly, Musgrave did not use wood from trees at first. “A lot of people don’t know
it but we were probably one of the first people that did any kind of recycling,” Hulan said.
Colonel Musgrave bought cedar rail fences(雪松栅栏) from farmers who were transitioning
(转 变 ) to fences made of modern materials. “We did not cut a tree,” Hulan added. Those
fences were made of Tennessee Red Cedar, plentiful in the area, and were the perfect material
for pencils.
As other pencil companies in Central Tennessee closed and business moved to other
states or overseas, Musgrave has been able to keep open, employing local workers and putting
out a quality, American-made product. Through a combination of strategic management
decisions, long-term employees and loyal customers, they’ve been successful.
Recently there’s been a growing demand for pencils in the digital era. “Pencils are special.
