The American Indians (iii)
The regions of North America where the newcomers lived varied greatly in climate and food supply. In the plains and eastern forests where game was plentiful, the Indians hunted and fished. In the dry Southwest, they farmed. These regional differences explain the richness and variety of Indian culture: dissimilar economics produced quite different systems of society.
For instance, many Indians of the Southwest, such as the Hopi and the Zuni, were village Indians. They built mud brick houses and developed agriculture. Man of them learned to irrigate; others became expert dry farmer. They grew beans, corn, and other vegetables. They made baskets, raised and wove cotton, and made beautiful pottery.
How much do you know about American Indians?

• The Métis people are a result of unions between Aboriginal people and Europeans -mostly French fur traders and Aboriginal women. Some Métis people have their combined Aboriginal and European roots in the early beginnings of Canada. However, the Métis nation truly came together as a distinct group because of events that happened in Western Canada in the 1800s.

• Born in Neepawa, Manitoba in 1926 • Educated at the University of Manitoba • died at Lakefield, Ontario in 1987 • raised by her aunt
Margaret Laurence (1926-1987)
• In fact her situation became more and more messed up. In the end she was killed in a fire.
Can you find any change of Vanessa’s
feeling for Piquette from the very beginning
•
General understanding
• How is the disappearance of the loons related to the theme of the story?
• Her death is like the disappearance of the loons on Diamond Lake. Just as the narrator’s father predicted, the loons would go away when more cottages were built at the Lake with more and more people moving in. The loons disappeared as nature was ruined by civilization. In a similar way, Piquette and her people failed to find their position in modern society.

American Indians
❖ Native Americans,Aboriginals, First Nations Indians , American Indians
❖ The American Indians are of Asian ancestry. Thousands of years before Columbus came to the New World, they entered North America by crossing a narrow strip of land that one connected Alaska and Siberia. Ancient geological changes raised the level of the oceans covering this natural bridge with water. Today this place is called the Bering Strait. At its narrowest point, the Strait is only 56 miles wide. In ancient times as today, a crossing there, even by primitive boat, must have been comparatively easy.

To make the comparison, words like as, as...as, as if and like are used to transfer the quality we associate with one to the other.Simile is a comparison between two different things that resemble each other in at least one way. In formal prose the simile is a device both of art and explanation, comparing an unfamiliar thing to some familiar thing (an object, event, process, etc.) known to the reader.For example,As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country.1. Simile通常由三部分构成:本体(tenor or subject),喻体(vehicle or reference)和比喻词(comparative word or indicator of resemblance)。
