Each Indian tribe had a different language.Many Indians never learned any language except their own.Do you know how Indians from different tribes talked to each other?They had two ways to talk without sound.1.
Sign language is a way of talking by using signs.Indians used sign language when they met strangers.In this way, they could find out whether the stranger was a friend or an enemy.In the Indian sign language,signs were made with the hands.Indians usually used signals when they wanted to send messages to someone far away.To make signals,an Indian might use a pony.2.Or he might use smoke,a mirror or fire arrows.
To signal that he had seen many animals,an Indian rode his pony in a large circle.Sometimes the Indian gave a signal like this and then went away to hide.3.
The blanket signal was visible from far away.An Indian held the comers of a blanket in his hands.Then he began to swing the blanket from side to side in front of him.4.He could also send many signals with a mirror.He usually used the mirror to warn someone of danger.Or he attempted to get the attention of a person for away.But he also used it to send messages in code.5.At night,Indians used fire arrows for signaling.
Now you can see that Indians didn't need to learn each other’s language.They could talk to one another by using signals or sign language.
A.This meant that there was danger.
B.He might use a blanket.
C.Different things mean different to them.
D.One way was by sign language;the other way was signals.
E.An Indian could send many different signals with his blanket.
F.But they still can make themselves understood.
G.Of course,mirrors could be used only when the sun was shining.
Eating too much fatty food,exercising too little and smoking can raise your future risk of heart disease.But there is another factor that can cause your heart problems more.immediately:the air you breathe.
Previous studies have linked high exposure(暴露)to environmental pollution to an increased risk of heart problems,but two analyses now show that poor air quality can lead to heart attack or stroke(中风)within as little as a few hours after exposure.In one review of the research,scientists found that people exposed to high levels of pollutants(污染物)were up to 5% more likely to suffer a heart attack within days of exposure than those with lower exposure.A separate study of stroke patients showed that even air that the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considers to be of "moderate"(良好)quality and relatively safe for our health can raise the risk of stroke as much as 34% within 12 to 14 hours of exposure.
The authors of both studies stress that these risks are relatively small for healthy people and certainly modest compared with other risk factors such as smoking and high blood pressure.However,it is important to be aware of these dangers because everyone is exposed to air pollution regardless of lifestyle choices.So stricter regulation by the EPA of pollutants may not only improve environmental air quality but could also become necessary to protect public
health.
