Could you live without a computer or a mobile phone? It might be hard for you to imagine a life without technology(科技). But even today, many people all over the world live happily without it. There are many tribes(部落) with much more important things to worry about than technology.

One of the most famous tribes on the earth is the Maasai(马赛族) people of Kenya, in Africa. The Maasai people don’t live in one place all the time. They move from place to place and make new homes each time they move. They build their homes in the forests from things they can find in nature—mud, sticks, grass and rocks. Their villages don’t have electricity(电), so computers and mobile phones cannot be used.

Another tribe in South East Asia is the Hmong. These are hill people—they live in the mountains in parts of Thailand, Laos and Vietnam. They have a very traditional way of life. In fact, they live the same way now that their ancestors(祖先) used to live over 2,000 years ago. They’ve also got their own ancient language with two different dialects(方言)： Hmong Djua and Hmong Daw. The language comes from Southern China and it’s quite different from the other languages of South East Asia. You won’t find much technology in a Hmong hill village.

The Koryak people, a tribe in Russia, live on the northern part of them Pacific Coast. It is very cold. For food, these people catch fish or keep reindeer (驯鹿). Koryak children help hunt(狩猎) and cook food for their family. They also sometimes make their own clothes with reindeer skin(皮).

Life for these people is much harder than it is for you or me. Could you live comfortably without basic necessities like food, water and electricity?

1.What can we know about the Hmong?

A. They live on the coast.

B. They keep their own language.

C. They usually move from place to place.

D. They make their own clothes with reindeer skin.

2.What does the writer think of the life of the tribes？

A. Poor but free. B. Hard but happy.

C. Wild but relaxing. D. Busy but enjoyable.

3.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A. Advantages of Living Without Technology

B. Different Ways of Life Around the World

C. Living Traditionally in a Modern World

D. Technology Makes Life Much Easier

阅读回答问题

If you do not use your arms or legs for a long time, they become weak. When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. But many people do not know that memory works in the same way.

When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it a chance to become strong.

If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault(过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame (负责), and few of us know that it is just his own fault.

Have you ever noticed that some people who can’t read or write usually have better memories? This is because they can’t read or write and they have to remember things with their mind – they can’t write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories, so they are always exercising their memories.

So if you want to have a good memory, learn from those people: practice remembering.

1.Does memory work in the same way as arms and legs?　

______________________________________________

2.Do your arms and legs become strong or weak when you use them a lot?

______________________________________________

3.What do most of us think of the people with poor memories?

______________________________________________

4.Why do the people who can’t read or write usually have better memories?

______________________________________________

5.What is the main idea of the passage?　

______________________________________________
