    The passage describes several functional areas of the cerebrum including Broca's area involved in speech formation, Wernicke's area involved in speech syntax, the primary motor cortex which determines muscle movement, the primary somatosensory cortex which receives sensory information, the visual association area involved in sight, the angular gyrus associated with reading, and the primary auditory cortex and auditory association area involved in the sense of hearing. The passage instructs the reader to label and color code these different functional areas of the brain.
