Major features include hills,saddles, valleys, ridges, and depressions. Hills areillustrated with concentric circles. Saddles are verticaldips between two hills. These are denoted withhourglass-shaped contour lines. Valleys are grooves inthe land formed by rivers or streams. A ridge is a long,narrow hilltop or a line of two or more hills next to eachother. A depression is a low point or sinkhole in theground. Draws, spurs, and cliffs are minor terrainfeatures. Maps may also contain man-made featureslike cuts or fills.MAJOR TERRAIN FEATURESHILLSADDLEVALLEYRIDGEDEPRESSIONMINOR TERRAIN FEATURESDRAWSPURCLIFFComprehension1Read, listen and choose the correct answers.1 What is the main purpose of contour lines on atopographic map?A to show elevation of terrain featuresB to explain the location of true northC to warn soldiers of danger2 Which of the following is NOT a man-madefeature?A depressionB fillC cut26Land Navigation: Map Reading 2Vocabulary2Write the topographical feature described byeach definition.1 a long, narrow line of hills.2 an area that is higher than the surroundingterrain.3 an area of land that has sunk below thesurrounding land.

First, they needobstacles or barriers in place to slowdown or halt traffic. They must haveescape routes for vehicles and anattack plan for any hostile elementthat tries to pass through them.Holding areas allow soldiers toperform comprehensive inspectionsof vehicles.Interpreters and interrogators aresometimes utilized in these settings.Comprehension1Read, listen and choose the correct answers.1 What is mentioned as a function of militarycheckpoints?A preventing enemies from using vehiclesB allowing soldiers to hide vehiclesC observing vehicle movementD blocking off roads that are dangerous2 According to the passage, why do checkpointshave attack plans?A to prevent unauthorized passage throughcheckpointsB to defend against attack from enemy unitsC to allow them to take on other missionsD to discourage passage through checkpoints3 Interpreters and interrogators are sometimesused .A to quickly build a new checkpoint.C to help people move through checkpoints.B in the event of an enemy attack.D to assist soldiers in holding areas.26Operations: CheckpointsVocabulary2Choose the best word or phrase to fit eachgiven definition.1 the ability to recognize dangerous situationsA insurgentB threat awarenessC interpreterD hostile element2 a part of a checkpoint used to examine vehiclesor question personsA escape routeB obstacleC interrogatorD holding area3 an enemy fighter or other hostile personA interrogatorB interpreterC insurgentD checkpoint

These areplaced at medium or high trafficlocations.Hasty checkpoints are set up quicklyin random areas to limit the possibilityof an insurgent attack on a checkpoint.These may employ tire spikes to act astemporary deterrents for insurgents.A closed checkpoint acts much thesame as a roadblock. It limits or deniesaccess to a route. Closed checkpointsoften redirect traffic toward anothercheckpoint.Comprehension3ListeningMark each statement as true or false. Correctthe underlined parts of the false statementsto make them true.51 Deliberate checkpoints are meant to be placed atplaces of medium to high volumes of traffic.2 Typically, a closed checkpoint is meant to slowdown traffic on a route.3 According to the passage, tire spikes are usedwith closed checkpoints.1 What is the main announcement that thespeaker makes?.2 Why weren’t the insurgents harmed in theattack?.Vocabulary4Look at the statements and determine whichtype of checkpoint they likely describe. Writethe letter of the statement in the correctbox.A Checkpoint Delta was set up to close off a fivemile stretch of the highway indefinitely.B A new checkpoint will be created at 0800 hoursand will monitor the area for 24 hours.C The checkpoint’s personnel should expect tostop a very large number of vehicles daily.DeliberatecheckpointHastycheckpointListen to the following radio newsreport.
