Many small cultural groups live in places far away from modern cities. Some of these tribes have never had any communication outside of their small areas. When they do contact the outside world, their lives usually change. Learning how to change without losing the best of their own cultures is a problem for them.
One native tribe in New Guinea has a difficult situation. The people of the tribe are being pulled in two ways. Copper has been discovered under the land where they have lived for centuries. Developers want to take the copper out of the ground, to mine it. The tribe needs the money that a copper mine would bring. The problem is that the copper is directly under the most important buildings of their society. These buildings are a necessary part of their religion. How can the copper be mined without changing their religion? A group of people are trying to help the tribe to learn to communicate with the rest of the world. Cultural Survival, Inc. is the name of the group. The people are anthropologists (人类学家),scientists who study cultures. The organization wants to teach them how to live in the modern world.
There is another organization like this in London. It is called Survival International. One in Copenhagen is called the International Workshop for Local Affairs. These two groups have joined with Cultural Survival, Inc. to help people become used to modern culture.
These organizations work with another kind of problem, too. Sometimes a central government does not consider the needs of local people in developing new projects. Often they suffer a great loss and Cultural Survival, Inc. helps them. Cultural Survival, Inc. and its sister organizations also give advice about tourism. The tourist business can cause problems. Many small societies need to earn money, but a large group of visitors can hurt their culture. Also the local people could use the help of Cultural Survival, Incorporated. [br] Why does the copper discovered in a native tribe in New Guinea give rise to a problem?
选项
A、Because it will soon be mined.
B、Because it will bring money for the tribe.
C、Because it is too far away for mining.
D、Because the mining of the copper will affect the tribe’s religion.
答案
D
解析
本题是一道具体细节题。问为什么在新几内亚的一个土著部落发现了铜反倒带来了问题。利用查阅式阅读法,我们可以在文章第二段找到相关信息。这段指出,新几内亚的一个土著部落便处在这样一个困境中。该部落的人们正受到两个方面的冲击。在他们几百年以来一直生息的地方的地下发现了铜矿,开发商打算开采,而这一部落也需要铜矿开采给他们带来钱。问题是那些铜矿就在这一社区的最重要的建筑物下面,这些建筑物是他们宗教活动的一个不可缺少的部分。那么,怎样才能做到既开采铜矿又不会影响他们的宗教呢?因此,本题的正确答案应是D“开采铜矿会影响他们的宗教信仰”。
