                                       A

                       

             We are sailing toward the San Bias Archipelago,a chain of more than 360 islands in the Caribbean Sea.

            “There's a boat!” Our daughter Hayley shouts suddenly.

             Three men,far out at sea,are in a canoe called a cayuco. We pull up near them and they offer to sell us a spiny lobster(龍蝦) ,but they have not caught enough for each of us.

            “Un momento,por favor [One moment,please],” the man says.

             He dives overboard,holding his breath,goes down 40 feet, and comes back up with another lobster in his bare hands!We buy the lobsters and visit with the men.

             These fishermen are the Kuna Indians from the San Bias Islands. The Kuna Indians have made their homes famous because of their efforts to protect their rain forests,their independence,and their culture.

             For more than 400 years,the Kuna Indians have fought to keep their traditional way of life. They,ve formed their own system of government and laws. They,ye kept the Kuna language,though many speak Spanish,too. And while visitors are welcome,non-Kuna people are not allowed to own land.

             Once we are on the island,we visit the sahila,or chief. It is an important part of Kuna culture for a visitor to receive an invitation and pay a fee to the sahila before entering,his village. We walk around the village and look at the way the Kuna people live. Kuna villages vary in size. They can range from a few dwellings(住所) to large villages with.some modem conveniences.

             Hayley and her brother Jackson are being homeschooled while we are traveling on our boat. Part of our homeschool day is spent learning about the countries and people we visit. Earlier today we read about Kuna foods and money. The Kuna eat a lot of fish,lobsters and coconuts (椰子) .The coconut is also used for money. Each coconut tree has a Kuna owner,so the coconuts cannot be taken or touched.

21. According to the text,the Kuna Indians have been trying their best to.

   A. expand their land

   B. prevent strangers visiting

   C. keep their traditions alive

   D. learn more about the outside world

                                    B 

           Every day hundreds of people pass through the San Francisco Ferry Building,a place where a variety of products and services are available. The San Francisco Ferry Building is the place where commuters catch their ferries at. It is also a place whose people come to walk and watch the activity on the bay. The area in which people shop for food is also where people can find restaurants and shops.

           The Ferry Building began to be built at a time in 1875 there were no bridges. People had to take a train to the Berkeley or Oakland ferry terminals,there they would catch a ferry to San Francisco. When the Bay Bridge opened in 1936,the Ferry Building became an unnecessary place in that the ferries were left and forgotten. In the 1970s,when the traffic on the bridge made the commute difficult,the ferry boat service resumed. Now the Ferry Building serves as an activity center which San Franciscans shop,eat,catch transportation,and relax near the water.
