The young boy was sitting on the ground in the refugee(难民)camp playing with an empty tin．Other children were standing around watching him with envious eyes．

Envy?　 Of an empty tin?

This tin was indeed no worthless piece of trash—it was a splendid truck，complete with wheels and grille(铁栅) and floor．The vehicle even had remote control，a frayed piece of string from the“engine”to the hand of the owner．

The tin had lost all its original markings．But its first load had probably been sardines(沙丁鱼)．Later the tin had been left with other rubbish behind the refugee camp clinic，and the boy had found it on one of his daily expeditions into the“big world”．

For thousands of refugee children，a tin 1ike this rates high on their list of wants．It can be used for many purposes，as jewellery，as a toy，for drinking or as a medicine box．

Many refugee children would consider it the happiest day of their lives if they received a handful of marbles(弹珠) as a present．

They dream of gifts which children in developed countries take for granted．Maybe a book to read．or a pencil and an exercise book of their very own．

Their imagination can create toys，but it cannot create books．Someone else must provide them．A more costly and valuable gift they cannot imagine．

In the mountainous southern Peru, Quechua women sit on the ground, chatting as they twist dry grass and shape it into long plaits (辫子). Every year for the past six centuries, each family contributes about 210 feet of plaints to build Q’eswachaka, the only surviving rope bridge that once connected the Inca Empire.

At approximately 100 feet, Q’eswachaka connects two mountains. It is rebuilt yearly by four Quechua communities who come together every second week of June to spend three days building the bridge and a fourth celebrating its completion. Before the work begins, one person asks for protection and permission. To people who gather to rebuild this structure, the bridge is a god. To build the new Q’eswachaka, one of the builders ties a rope around his waist and makes his way across last year’s structure. Once this connection is secure, the old bridge is cut loose. Then builders transport supplies and other ropes. They ride on the bridge’s cable and make its floor by hand. The skills for the bridge are communicated not through written instructions, but through apprenticeship (学徒期).

Nowadays, the bridge faces many challenges. Policy adjustments in the teaching field have caused the sharp fall in the number of Quechua speakers. Only 40% of the younger generation speaks the language of their ancestors. Since the ancestral language is necessary for the ceremony associated with Q’eswachaka, the decrease in the number of speakers will make it difficult for the tradition to continue. Besides, now Q’eswachaka is made of only one kind of plant, but it used to include other plant materials that have disappeared, which made it strong enough to serve the needs of the communities. These days, a nearby steel bridge satisfies the transport of cars and supplies, and Q’eswachaka’s construction is kept alive by tourism rather than function.

1.What’s the first step of rebuilding Q’eswachaka?

A.Use a rope to build a connection. B.Make the new bridge’s floor.

C.Destroy the old bridge. D.Transport materials.

2.What can we learn about Q’eswachaka?

A.It mainly aims to attract visitors now. B.It remains practical for local people.

C.It’s in the charge of local women. D.It’s approximately 100 feet long.

3.What can we infer from the text?

A.There are many rope bridges in Peru now.

B.Builders ask for permission from the government.

C.The new bridge is built when the old one gets fragile.

D.Quechua is important for the survival of Q’eswachaka.

4.Which can be the best title of the text?

A.Importance of Q’eswachaka. B.Development of Q’eswachaka.

C.Decrease of Quechua speakers. D.Challenges Q’eswachaka faces.
