Read the text from a magazine article in which five boroughs are recommended. For Questions 61 to 65, match the number of each borough(61 to 65) to one of the statements( A to G) given below. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET I.
Manhattan was founded in 1624 as New Netherland. Though it is the smallest in area, at present it is the most important of the boroughs. It has the greatest concentration of business, finance, and entertainment.
Brooklyn was founded in 1646 as the little Dutch village of Breuckelen. Today Brooklyn is the second largest borough in area and the most populous area. Brooklyn sometimes is called the borough of homes and churches. But it is also an indispensable port. Almost haft of New York City’s foreign trade is handled at Brooklyn’s busy water front. Much of the city’s heavy industry is located in Brooklyn. The borough is one of the largest manufacturing centers in the United States.
Queens was founded in 1645 at Vlissingen( today called Flushing). It is the largest borough in area. Queens is one of the city’s most popular residential areas. The borough is important because of its concentration of railroads and heavy industry in the Long Island City area. New York City’s main airports—John F. Kennedy International and La Guardia—are in Queens.
The Bronx began as Jonas Bronck’s farm in 1641. The Bronx, the second smallest borough in area, is largely residential, although many industries have grown up near the East and Harlem rivers.
Staten Island was first called Staaten Eylandt. It began in 1661 with a village called Oude Dorp. This island borough, in New York Bay, was formerly called Richmond. With an area of about 157 square kilometers, its population is the smallest of those of the five boroughs. Staten Island is growing fast; but many small homes and even some farms are still found there. Although the island is mainly residential, many industries are grown up in its northern section.
Now match each of the boroughs (61 to 65) to the appropriate statement.
Note: There are two extra statements.
Statements
[A] It is the location of important airports of New York City.
[B] Its northern part is the location of industries.
[C] Almost half of the United States’ foreign trade is dealt with in its port.
[D] It is the greatest center of business, finance and culture.
[E] It has large residence but is small in area.
[F] It is famous for its largest transportation.
[G] It is one of the largest manufacturing centre in the United States.
