2023年6月大学英语六级阅读训练(16)
As many as one thousand years ago in the Southwest, the Hopi and ZuniIndians of North America were building with adobe-sun baked brickplastered with mud. Their homes looked remarkably like modern apartmenthouses. Some were four stories high and contained quarters for perhaps athousand people, along with store rooms for grain and other goods. Thesebuildings were usually put up against cliffs, both to make construction easierand for defense against enemies. They were really villages in themselves, aslater Spanish explorers must have realized since they called them "pueblos", which is Spanish for town.
The people of the pueblos raised what are called"the three sisters" - corn, beans, and squash. They made excellent pottery and wove marvelous baskets, some so fine that they could hold water. The Southwest has always been adry country, where water is scarce. The Hopi and Zuni brought water fromstreams to their fields and gardens through irrigation ditches. Water was soimportant that it played a major role in their religion. They developedelaborate ceremonies and religious rituals to bring rain.
The way of life of less settled groups was simpler and more stronglyinfluenced by nature. Small tribes such as the Shoshone and Ute wanderedthe dry and mountainous lands between the Rocky Mountains and the PacificOcean. They gathered seeds and hunted small animals such as small rabbitsand snakes. In the Far North the ancestors of today’s Inuit hunted seals, walruses, and the great whales. They lived right on the frozen seas in shelterscalled igloos built of blocks of packed snow. When summer came, they fishedfor salmon and hunted the lordly caribou.
The Cheyenne, Pawnee, and Sioux tribes, known as the Plains Indians, lived onthe grasslands between the Rocky Mountains and the Mississippi River. Theyhunted bison, commonly called the buffalo. Its meat was the chief food ofthese tribes, and its hide was used to make their clothing and covering oftheir tents and tipis.
