Toronto wants the world to discover what our city has to offer. And how better to do that than by putting the world in touch with the people who know and love Toronto the best – the people who live here.
How does TAP into TO! work?
We have lined up an array of energetic, knowledgeable volunteer Torontonians, who are ready, willing and able to show you their favourite parts of Toronto.
Tell us when you'll be visiting, when you have two to four hours of free time and what neighbourhood you would like to see.
We'll match you up with a greeter who shares your area of interest and you'll be set to go.
Please give us at least one week notice to make the match. It is also important to note that the greeter visits cannot be arranged for the first day of arrival in the city – just in case you are unavoidably delayed on your arrival.

The phrasal verb in the title, “Tap Into TO!”, is best expressed by the phrase
connect with Toronto.
stay a while in Toronto.
stop over in Toronto.
take a day in Toronto.
go about Toronto.
Gabarito:
connect with Toronto.
[A]
O phrasal verb to tap into pode ser entendido como "to establish a connection with", "to have access to", "to take advantage of'" (estabelecer uma conexão com algo, ter acesso a algo, tirar proveito de algo). Assim, a alternativa que melhor se encaixa à definição é a [A] (conectar-se a Toronto). A questão foi classificada como de nível elevado, pois a alternativa [D] (passe um dia em Toronto) e especialmente a alternativa [B] (fique um tempo em Toronto), poderiam facilmente confundir o candidato.

Linguini: Well, I uh...
Colette: Only me. Why do you think that is? Because high cuisine is an antiquated hierarchy built upon rules written by stupid, old men. Rules designed to make it impossible for women to enter this world, but still im here. How did this happen?
Linguini: Well because you, because you...

The following poem presents a different version of the popular song “California Dreamin'” by The Mammas and The Papas (1965).
California Steamin'
By Clinton VanInman – Contributing Poet
All the tress are brown
And the sky is gray
I've been for a walk
On a greenhouse day.
I should be safe and sound now
If I was miles from L.A.
California steamin'
On such a sweltering day.
Stopped into a church
I stumbled along the way
Got down on my knees
And prayed for a rainy day.
You know the preacher likes it cold
Now that all his candles have melted away,
California steamin'
Please don't take my fan away.
