1、20页 Each Indian tribe had a different language. Many Indians never learned any language except their own. Do you know how Indians from different tribes talked to each other? They had two ways to talk without sound. One way was by sign language; the other way by signals.Sign language is a way of talk
2、ing by using signs. Indians used sign language when they met strangers. In this way, they could find out whether the stranger was a friend or an enemy. In the Indian sign language, signs were made with the hands. One sign meant man. Another meant horse. To tell the time of day when something happene
3、d, an Indian pointed to the sky. He showed where the sun had been at the time.Indians usually used signals when they wanted to send messages to someone far away. To make signals, an Indian might use a pony. He might use a blanket. Or he might use smoke, a mirror or fire arrows.To signal that he had
4、seen many animals, an Indian rode his pony in a large circle. Sometimes the Indian gave a signal like this and then went away to hide. This meant that there was danger.The blanket signal was visible from far away. An Indian held the corners of a blanket in his hands. Then he began to swing the blank
5、et from side to side in front of him. An Indian could send many different signals with his blanket.He could also send many signals with a mirror. He usually used the mirror to warn someone of danger. Or he attempted to get the attention of a person far away. But he also used it to send messages in c
6、ode. Of course, mirrors could be used only when the sun was shining. At night, Indians used fire arrows for signaling.An Indian also sent signals with smoke. He made a small fire of dry wood. Then he put grass or green branches on it. He held a blanket over the fire for a minute. When he removed the
7、 blanket from the fire, there was a cloud of smoke. The number of clouds of smoke told his message in code.Now you can see that Indians didnt need to learn each others language. They could talk to one another by using signals or sign language.61页 In his 1979 book, The Sinking Ark, biologist Norman M
8、yers estimated that 1 of more than 100 human-caused extinctions occur each day, and that one million species 2 lost by the centurys end. Yet there is little evidence of 3 that number of extinctions. For example, only seven species on the 4 .species list have become extinct 5 the list was created in
9、1973. Bio- 6 is an important value, according to many scientists. Nevertheless, the supposed 7 extinction rates bandied about are achieved by multiplying unknowns by 8 to get imponderables. Many estimates, for instance, rely a great deal on a species-area 9 ”which predicts that twice as many species
10、 will be found on 100 square miles 10 on ten square miles. The problem is that species are distributed 11 , so which parts of a forest are destroyed may be as important as 12 . 13 ,says Ariel Lugo, director of the International Institute of Tropical Forestry in Puerto Rico, Biologists who predict hi

According to the consultative Group on International Agricultural Research, what destroys 16 trees is not commercial logging, but poor farmers who have no other 17 for feeding their families than slashing

I gave him a box of chocolates and told him to distribute it 31 among the housekeeping staff. His face immediately broke into a wide smile and this made me 32 . But the story doesnt 33 here. The
19、best part of it a11 was that Babu actually distributed the chocolates among everyone equally, _34 giving extra chocolates to a woman who has a 5-year-old son. It was so 35 for me to see this. I find it really 36 to understand how we，who have the money to buy chocolates and other goodies, do not even
