The Mississippi
The Mississippi is a great river whose relationship with man goes way back beyond its discovery in the 16th century.The River Indians used it as a highway and as a source of food, and it was they who gave it its name—“misi” meaning “great” and “sipi” meaning “water”.When the length of its branch, the Missouri, is added to it, the Mississippi becomes greater. 1..From the source of the Missouri to the tip of the delta (三角洲), it is 2, 480 miles long.
Great rivers are likely to suffer floods.In 1927 the Mississippi flooded 26 thousand acres, sweeping away farms, towns, everything in its path.In 1938 its floods drowned or killed 200 people and made millions homeless.Today the river has largely been controlled. 2..
Industries have spread down some of the waterways of the delta, but otherwise the delta is a remote place, the homeland of a little colony of French Canadians that the British drove out of Nova Scotia in the 18th century.They still speak French, mixed with English, Indian, Spanish and Negro idioms.They keep to themselves, farming the rich soil of the delta. 3..
4..Pioneers who first reached its banks wondered not only where it went, but what lay beyond.In 1764 the French founded a city on the right bank of the river, and named it after their king, Louis XV.This city, named St.Louis, became the jumping-off(起点) place for the adventurous men and women who opened up the Great Plains, and the way to the Far West.
Some 40 years earlier, at the beginning of the 18th century, the French had founded another city just above the Mississippi delta, New Orleans. 5..New Orleans is one of the great ports of the world, and one of the greatest terminals for both sea and river traffic.
A.It was the Mississippi that made the city what it is
B.Levees, high banks built of earth, hold back the flood waters
C.Therefore, as we know, it’s the third longest river in the world
D.It is known that the “Great Water” has also been a frontier river
E.However, they paddled up and down the Mississippi in their boats to seek their fortune
F.The “Great Water” always remains a threat, for the streets of the city are below the level of the river
G.They call themselves Cajuns, who have actually been leading fairly primitive lives and preserving their own traditions
Babies are born yogis.Once we were all able to pull our toes up by our ears and laugh about it.Then we aged, got injured, and began carrying stress in our shoulders and back.In short, we lost our balance.
Yoga(瑜伽)is an ancient practice that helps create a sense of union in body, mind, and spirit.It brings us balance.I was seriously out of balance when I started practicing yoga in 1999.I had plantar fascitis(足底筋膜炎) in both feet, and my doctor had warned me against all the things I loved to do: walking, hiking, and playing tennis.I was desperate for exercise.Yoga became my salvation(拯救) and even enhanced my other fitness activities.I practice yoga at least twice a week, but I consider yoga to be part of my daily life because after a while you no longer just practice yoga—you love it.
Yoga becomes part of your physical life.Your body grows stronger, more toned, and more flexible as you move from one pose to the other.I spent a week in Mexico at a yoga retreat(静修), and it was the first vacation on which I lost weight.“Rather than building muscle, yoga builds muscle tone,” says Shakta Kaur Khalsa, author of the K.I.S.S.Guide to Yoga.“Because yoga helps maintain a balanced metabolism (新陈代谢), it also helps to regulate weight.Additionally, yoga stretches muscles lengthwise, causing fat to be removed around the cells.” I do yoga poses throughout the day.After hours at my computer, I stretch my stiff shoulders and arms.When I need a boost of energy, I do energizing poses.When I am feeling exhausted at the end of the day, I do restorative poses.
Yoga becomes part of your mental life.Yoga teaches you to focus on breathing while you hold the poses.This attention to breath is calming; it dissolves stress and anxiety.I use yogic breathing on the tennis courts, in the dentist’s chair, and in traffic jams.You should always leave a yoga practice feeling energized, not tired.If you feel tired after yoga, it means you spent the time “fighting” yourself, trying to force yourself into poses.In yoga, you “surrender” to the pose by letting go of the tension.
Yoga becomes part of your spiritual life.Yoga is practiced by people from all religions; it is not restricted to any religious group.Yoga teaches “right” living in how we deal with ourselves and others.As I work on a difficult pose, I learn patience, forgiveness, and the value of gentleness.Yoga advocates proper eating, but you don’t have to be a vegetarian to practice yoga.
