SKILLS PRACTICE
Reading
You are going to read some reviews that several people have written about movies that they saw. For questions 16 — 30, choose
from the people (A — D). The people may be chosen more than once.
Along the macadamized roads and turnpikes east of the Missouri River, travel was comparatively fast, camping easy, and supplies
plentiful. Then, in one river town or another, the neophyte emigrants would pause to lay in provisions. For outfitting purposes, the
town of Independence had been preeminent ever since 1827, but the rising momentum of pioneer emigration had produced some
rival jump-off points. Westport and Fort Leavenworth flourished a few miles upriver. St. Joseph had sprung up 55 miles to the
northwest; in fact, emigrants who went to Missouri by riverboat could save four days on the trail by staying on the paddle wheelers
to St. Joe before striking overland.
At whatever jump-off point they chose, the emigrants studied guide books and directions, asked questions of others as green as
themselves, and made their final decision about outfitting. They had various, sometimes conflicting, options. For example, either
pack animals or two -wheel carts or wagons could be used for the overland crossing. A family man usually chose the wagon. It was
the costliest and slowest of the three, but it provided space and shelter for children and for a wife who likely as not was pregnant.
Everybody knew that a top-heavy covered wagon might blow over in a prairie wind or be overturned by mountain rocks, that it
might mire in river mud or sink to its hubs in desert sand, but maybe if those things happened on this trip, they would happen to
someone else. Anyway, most pioneers, with their farm background, were used to wagons.
