    The Native American tribes (部落) are famed for their impressive totem poles (图腾柱), each of which is carefully carved and painted. Some may tell a tale about a tribe or a family.1.Constructing totem poles falls on the shoulder of skilled workmen. They spend hours selecting the right tree, cutting it down and carving it, and finally painting it with the proper colors before building it outdoors.

2.The people who desire to make one decide on the design they want. Based on their demands, the workman then selects the best tree. Cedar (雪松) trees are the most commonly used to make totem poles. They are tall and have large diameters (直径), but fewer branches than other trees.3.These characteristics combine to make cedar trees ideal for carving into large, wide totem poles. An additional benefit is that they are so durable that some totem poles are still standing more than a century after being carved and raised.

Once the selected tree has been cut down and had its branches removed, it must be carried to the workman’s workshop.4.The planned design is then carved into the tree trunk.

A typical totem pole is designed in three sections: the bottom, middle, and top. Following the completion of the design stage, the workman carves the designs by starting at the bottom.5.Many totem poles have unusual parts such as the wings of birds attached to their tops, so it is the final part to be done. After the carving is finished, the totem pole is painted. Finally, the person who required it raise it during a special ceremony.

A.And they have softwood.

B.Every totem pole begins with a plan.

C.The top section often requires extra labor.

D.They serve many purposes beyond their beauty.

E.Others may describe the deeds of a person or people.

F.Totem poles can be got from the largest online selection at e-Bay.com.

G.The workman and his assistants then remove the bark and smooth the large trunk..
