举一反三
Old stereotypes(思维定式) die hard. And when it comes to the way Native Americans have been viewed throughout history and continue to be viewed today, the stories about life in Indian Country are sadly overshadowing the truths. Most Native Americans don"t live in tipis(圆锥形帐篷), and we don"t greet one another by saying, “How.”
To combat misconceptions like these, I need help from people who understand there"s more to Native American cultures than the offensive cartoons that you see in movies and television.
I think that you might be one of these people.
Please join NMAI today and enjoy exclusive benefits like our full-color quarterly magazine American Indian, and Members-only discounts at all Smithsonian, NMAI Museum Stores, and at our Zagat-rated Mitsitam Native Foods Café.
Plus, through this email, you can take advantage of our special price of $22-more than 10% off our regular membership charge.
With your support, the National Museum of the American Indian can tell the story both past and present of Native life and culture in North, Central, and South America.
In just one visit to either of our Museums in Washington, DC, or New York City, you can watch a performance by traditional Native dancers... attend a lecture by a leading voice from the world of Native literature... spend an afternoon taking an informative audio tour of the Museum"s distinctive grounds... and try your hand at Native crafts like pottery and beadwork. And for those who are unable to visit the museums in person, much of our extensive collection of more than 800,000 objects is cateloged on our website.
Only with your generosity can we share the Native story, awaken children to an interest in Native culture, and bring the Museum experience to people who can"t travel to our Museums in person.
By joining the Museum today, you will take the first step in putting an end to the old stereotypes and long-held prejudices that have contributed to an incomplete picture of Native traditions and accomplishments.
Sincerely,
Kevin Gover
Director

My wife said to me quietly, “It’s his ninth cup of tea today.” But she said in a loud voice, “It is a beautiful table, dear, isn’t it?”
“I will decide about that when I see the bill, ” I read:
One dining table, 10 November, 1989.
Cost of wood: $17.00
Paint: $1.50
Work: 8 hours ($1 an hour) $8.00
Total: $36.50
When I was looking at the bill, John said, “It’s been a fine day, hasn’t it? Quite sunny.” “Yes,” I said, “I’m glad it is only the 10th of November.”
“Me, too,” said John. “You wait. It’ll be a lot colder by the end of the month.”
“Yes, colder…. And more expensive! Dining tables will be $20 more expensive on November 30th, won’t they, John?” John looked hard at me for half a minute. Was there a little smile in his two blue eyes? I gave his bill back to him.
“If it isn’t too much trouble, John,” I said, “Please add it up again and you can forget the date.”
I paid him $26.50and he was happy to get it.
小题1:Why did John talk about the weather when the writer was looking at the bill?_______
A.Because he didn’t want the writer to go through the bill carefully. |
B.Because it was really a fine day. |
C.Because he wanted the writer to check the bill carefully. |
D.Because he wanted to tell the writer what the weather was like. |
A.Because it was difficult to make dining tables in cold weather. |
B.Because paint would be more expensive. |
C.Because the cost of wood would be more expensive. |
D.Because he thought John would certainly add to the cost of the dining table. |
A.John made a mistake in the bill. |
B.John tried to fool the writer in order to get more money for his work |
C.John had written out the bill before the writer got home. |
D.John still wanted to get $36.50 for his work in the end. |
Where in the world ?
Bali is located just off the eastern edge of the main Indonesian island of Java. To the east is the neighboring island of Lombok. To the south of Bali lies the expanse of the Indian Ocean, while to the north is the Bali Sea. The most popular resort with holidaymakers is Ubud north of Sanur.
When to go?
Bali has a tropical climate year round with an average daily temperature of 31℃(87℃F). The wet season is between October and April. The dry season is between May and September, and is the busiest time to visit the island as travelers take advantage of the long hot days and little rain.
Beach
Bali has a string of beaches, mainly in the south of the island. Head away from Bali’s beaches and a totally different world awaits you. Ubud is an easily accessible (接近的)jungle resort town with a good range of hotels, shops and restaurants. The active volcano of Mount Batur is a highlight and so are the mountain lakes.
Family fun
All of the resorts have plenty of facilities (设施)for families. In Ubud there is a monkey park, where young ones can see monkeys that are not kept in tiny cages and an elephant park where holidaymakers can ride an elephant.
Eating out
All of Bali’s holiday resorts offer international cooking to suit every tourist’s taste, with most of the better hotels having excellent restaurants. Indonesian Bintang beer is very popular.
Getting around
There are a limited number of local buses. The other public transport is to take the local “bemo” minibuses. These colourful little minibuses speed around the winding roads with fares negotiated (商议)on board, so it helps to speak a little of the local language. There are also taxis and both electric bikes and cars can be hired.
小题1:From the passage we learn that Bali is __________.
A.on the east of the Lombok Island |
B.to the west of the Lombok Island |
C.off the north of Bali Sea |
D.surrounded by the Indian Ocean |
A.January and February | B.April and May |
C.June and July | D.September and October |
A.It is very convenient for visitors to take a local bus |
B.You don’t need to pay money to take a “bemo” minibus |
C.You have to learn to speak the local language |
D.You may take an electric bike |
The response to her request for help was so huge that Poe established Kids For A Cleaner Environment (Kids F. A. C. E.) in 1989. There are now 300,000 members of Kids F.A.C.E. worldwide and it is the world’s largest youth environmental organization.
Poe has also asked the National Park Service to carry out a “Children’s Forest” project in every national park. In 1992, she was invited as one of only six children in the world to speak at the Earth Summit in Brazil as part of the Voices of the Future Program. In 1993, she was given a Caring Award for her efforts by the Caring Institute.
Since the organization started, Kids F.A.C.E. members have distributed and planted over 1 million trees! Ongoing tree-planting projects include Kids’ Yards — the creation of backyard wildlife habitats (栖息地) and now Kids F.A.C.E. is involved in the exciting Earth Odyssey, which is a great way to start helping.
“We try to tell kids that it’s not OK to be lazy,” she explains. “You need to start being a responsible (负责任的) , environmentally friendly person now, right away, before you become a resource-sucking adult.”
小题1:Kids F.A.C.E. is __________.
A. a program to help students with writing
B. a project of litter recycling
