H. Read the text below and answer the questions 1-5. Choose a, b, c or d.

T
he area now known as the United States of America
was not an unpopulated wilderness before the arrival of
European settlers. Among those who were already living
off the land were the Cheyenne, one of several tribes of Native
Americans. Like other tribes, such as the Sioux and the Navajo,
line 6 they were put under a lot of pressure to change both where and
how they lived.
Four hundred years ago the Cheyenne, whose name
means ‘little red-talker’, were based in the Eastern Woodlands.
Unusually for Native American tribes, they were farmers, planting
corn and beans rather than hunters. However, by the middle of the nineteenth century this had changed, and the
Cheyenne had developed a horse culture and hunted bison on the Great Plains.
Traditionally, the chiefs or elders of the Cheyenne were organised into the ‘Council of Forty-Four.’ They had
rules for everyday life, warfare, celebrations and ceremonies. One thing that made the Cheyenne different from other
tribes, which were exclusively patriarchal, was that women were far more active in tribal affairs.
In twenty-first century America, many Cheyenne live in exactly the same way as do most people in big
cities. However, there is another option for those who want to keep their traditional way of life. This is to live on the
Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation in southeast Montana, or on the Southern Cheyenne Reservation in central
Oklahoma. The combined population of the Cheyenne is presently near to 20,000.
1. When did the Cheyenne migrate to the Great Plains? 4. Which of the following is not true?
a. around 1850 a. Europeans were not the first people to live in the US.
b. more than four hundred years ago b. Today some Cheyenne live on reservations.
c. as soon as the Europeans arrived in America c. The Cheyenne have always lived in the same place.
d. in this century d. Women in Cheyenne communities had a higher status
than in other tribes.
2. What does the word they refer to in line 6?
a. the Sioux and the Navajo 5. What is the purpose of the text?
b. the Cheyenne a. to give a personal account of changes in a lifestyle
c. several Native American tribes b. to protest against the treatment of Native
d. the European settlers Americans
c. to give some general information about a Native American


Somewhere deep in the rainforests of South America lies a mysterious place that time has forgotten – and this
line 2 is where our expedition was heading. For two days we travelled up a large river, dark in colour, yet transparent, so
that one could see the bottom. On either side of the river was thick jungle; the trees were incredibly tall and thick
and they seemed to shoot upwards in magnificent columns forming a green roof far above our heads.
Occasionally, if I looked up, I saw a ray of sunshine through the green branches. As we walked noiselessly
through the thick soft carpet of vegetation, a silence fell upon us and even Professor Challenger’s loud voice sank
into a whisper. We passed amazing plantlife: vivid orchids and clusters of flowers curled around ancient tree trunks
– it was like a fairyland. There was no sign of animal life on the ground, but a constant movement above our heads
told us that there existed another world inhabited by monkeys, birds and snakes. At dawn and sunset the monkeys
screamed and the parakeets screeched, but during the long slow hours of the day, the buzz of insects, like the
crashing of waves, filled our ears.
On our third day, we heard something that terrified us. A deep rhythmic beating in the air. Our Indian
companions froze with terror; it was as if they had been turned into bronze statues.
‘What is it?’ I asked.
ss
‘War drums,’ replied Challenger. onon
‘Yes, sir, war drums,’ said our guide Gomez. ‘Wild Indians. They are watching us. They will kill us if they can.’ caticati
