Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct answer to each of the questions
Before the 1500’s, the western plains of North America were dominated by farmers.
One group, the Mandans, lived in the upper Missouri River country, primarily in present-
day North Dakota. They had large villages of houses built close together. The tight
arrangement enabled the Mandans to protect themselves more easily from the attacks of
others who might seek to obtain some of the food these highly capable farmers stored from
one year to the next.
The women had primary responsibility for the field. They had to exercise
considerable skill to produce the desired results, for their northern location meant fleeting
growing seasons. Winter often lingered; autumn could be ushered in by severe frost. For
good measure, during the spring and summer, drought, heat, hail, grasshoppers, and other
frustrations might await the wary grower.
Under such conditions, Mandan women had to grow maize capable of weathering
adversity. They began as early as it appeared feasible to do so in the spring, clearing the
Ti ng Anh 12ếMã đ 345 - Trang 4/6 trang
land, using fire to clear stubble from the fields and then planting. From this point until the
first green corn could be harvested, the crop required labor and vigilance.
In August the Mandans picked a smaller amount of the crop before it had matured
fully. This green corn was boiled, dried and shelled, with some of the maize slated for
immediate consumption and the rest stored in animal-skin bags. Later in the fall, the people
picked the rest of the corn. They saved the best of the harvest for seeds or for trade, with the
remainder eaten right away or stored for late use in underground reserves. With appropriate
banking of the extra food, the Mandans protected themselves against the disaster of crop
failure and accompany hunger.
The woman planted another staple, squash, about the first of June, and harvested it
near the time of the green corn harvest. After they picked it, they sliced it, dried it, and
strung the slices before they stored them. Once again, they saved the seeds from the best of
the year’s crop. The Mandans also grew sunflowers and tobacco; the latter was the
particular task of the older men.
