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 building 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, 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(旅游业). 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.
选项
A、how Cultural Survival, Inc. helped a tribe to solve the problem of copper mining
B、why local cultures should be saved
C、the work of Cultural Survival, Inc
D、the difficulties in saving local cultures
答案
C
解析
综观全文,第一自然段只是个引子,提出一个问题,即;一些远离现代城市的小部落要想和外界接触且不损失自己文化中的精华怎么办?以下的三个自然段分述了一个这样的组织Cultural Survival,Inc,所做的这方面的工作,所以答案为C。
