jungle armed with bows arrows and spears attacked a village in India s Middle Andaman Island and looted 掠夺 tools food clothes cash and jewellry It was the first such attack in seven years It has given us an indication that the Jarawa remain untamed primitive or a cry for help from man s earliest ancestors their forests and their lifestyle their existence under threat It is usual that some hunters enter Jarawa reserve areas to hunt wild animals an officer frankly notes in an internal report on April s attack obtained by Reuters 路透社 Some of the hunters he said had stolen honey buried by the Jarawa and destroyed the carved containers used to store it Honey is the only food the Jarawa store one of the most precious things they have Angry they had hit back It is really frightening said author Mukherjee The surest way to kill hunter gatherers is to take away their territory The Jarawa are one of four ancient Negroid tribes barely surviving on the Andamans Last month Indian scientists said DNA evidence suggested they were direct descendents of man s earliest ancestors who migrated from Africa 65 000 to 70 000 years ago only to be trapped on the islands by rising seawater Until just a few years ago the Jarawa lived in separation preserving a simple lifestyle in their own Garden of Eden 伊甸园 Then the government built a road through their forest The 343 km Andaman Trunk Road ATR completed in 1989 was designed as an economic lifeline to link the island chain The road may look like a little strip of land cutting through the forest but it is a road opening the Jarawa up not just to germs but to all kinds of outside influence said Mukherjee Outsiders induce addictions They supply them with tobacco or alcohol so the Jarawa keep coming back and have to bring their forest resources out to feed their addictions In the old days the Jarawa used to chase outsiders away with their bows and arrows In just a few years since the road was opened many have learned basic Hindi 印地语 as well as modern vices 恶习 They used to come for food coconuts and bananas said M Rajendran who runs a roadside tea shop on the edge of the reserve Now they come for tobacco and alcohol 64 What is the most probable cause of the Jarawa s attacking the village A Their living conditions were in a bad state B The Jarawa were angry with the villagers C Some of the villagers stole Jarawa s honey and destroyed their honey containers D The Jarawa were so hungry that they wanted to find food for themselves 65 Which statement about the Jarawa is NOT TRUE A The Jarawa were the direct descendents of man s earliest ancestors B The Jarawa are living a life completely cut off from the world C The Jarawa are one of four ancient Negroid tribes barely surviving on the Andaman D The Jarawa came from Africa 66 Which of the following is NOT the result that the ATR brings about to the Jarawa A They are threatened by germs B The forests are being destroyed C They become addicted to tobacco and alcohol D They keep the outsiders out of their territory 67 What s the author s attitude to the Jarawa s attack in the text A The Jarawa tribesmen are primitive B The Jarawa have no choice but to do so C The Jarawa are hard to control D They are so untamed that they often rob things of the outsiders D Shopping with plastic is now safer than ever Welcome to your new debit card and a new safer way
