Nếu bạn đến bang Alaska của Mỹ, bạn có thể sẽ thấy lối sống truyền thống ở đó thú vị. Dù Alaska khá rộng lớn với diện tích gần 1,7 triệu ki-lô-mét vuông, nó có một dân số nhỏ khoảng 730000 người.

Người dân bản địa ở Alaska vẫn giữ được nhiều truyền thống của họ. Họ vẫn bảo tồn cách làm đồ mỹ thuật và thù công của họ. Rất nhiều nhóm người bản địa có những kiểu chạm khắc và dệt may độc đáo của riêng họ cùng với những tiếng trống và vũ điệu dân tộc độc đáo. Do đó, du khách đến Alaska sẽ trải nghiệm được một số văn hóa trong làng của họ. Họ sẽ thấy những màn biểu diễn âm nhạc truyền thống và những tác phẩm nghệ thuật bản địa trong các phòng trưng bày và viện bảo tàng.

If you go to the American state of Alaska, you might find the traditional lifestyle there interesting. Although Alaska is quite large, with nearly 1.7 million square kilometres, it has a small population of about 730,000.

The native peoples in Alaska still maintain many of their traditions. They keep their old ways of making arts and crafts alive. Various native groups have their own special styles of carving or weaving as well as their unique tribal dances and drumming. Therefore, visitors to Alaska may experience some of their culture in their villages. They may see performances of traditional music and native art in galleries and museums.

Alaska is also known for its unusual method of transport - the dogsled. Today, dog sledding (= mushing) is more of a sport than a true means of transport. The best-known race is the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race, a 1,510 km race from Anchorage to Nome. Mushers from all over the world come to Anchorage each March to compete for cash and prizes.

For 3,000 years, Mongolians have lived in the rural areas, adopting a pastoral way of life, moving in the
search of new pastures. They depend largely on their livestock for a living and sustain themselves with what
they can get from the land. Today, approximately half of Mongolia’s population is still roaming the vast plains
living in the ger and moving their campings several timesa year. Nomadic life thrives in summer and survives
in winter. When temperatures are warm, they work hard on their farms to get milk and make airag, consuming
meat from their sheeps and goats. Once winter comes, temperatures dip extremely low and they stay indoors
and survive on horse meat.
With the rise of technology, changes in the Mongolian nomadic lifestyle are almost inevitable. While they
still lead their lifestyle as pastoral herders, many use motorbikes to herd cattle and horses. To move their
homes, trucks have taken the place of ox carts. Solar panels are also becoming an addition to the ger, giving
them access to electricity without being confined to one place. The nomads use solar energy to power television
sets and mobile phones.
1. Mongolians regularly move from place to place in order to _________.
a.look for food for their family b. find pastures for their livestock

2. How many Mongolians still live a traditional nomadic life?
a.Close to 40 percent b. More than 50 percent

4. What is the Mongolian’s main food in winter?
a.airag b. goat meat c. sheep meat d. horse meat
5. Today, Mongolian nomads _________.
a.don’t lead their lifestyle as herders any more
b.use ox carts to move their homes
c.use solar energy to power electronic devices
