Around 365 B.C, in ancient Greece, the great teacher Plato told a story about a place called Atlantis. Plato described Atlantis as a continent in the Atlantic Ocean. He said it had been the home of powerful people who were destroyed when the continent was swallowed by the sea.

Ever since Plato's time, people have wondered if the story about Atlantis was really true. Was there ever such a place as Atlantis? During the Middle Ages, many people believed in the legend of Atlantis. Some men even made voyages to find the "lost continent". Later, most people believed Atlantis to be just a myth. Scientists could find to no evidence to show that such a place had ever existed.

Ideas change in time, however, for now some scientists think that Atlantis might have been a real place. A Greek professor has offered a new theory. He says that Atlantis was not a continent in the Atlantic Ocean an island called Thera in the Aegean Sea. The professor says that 3500 years ago much of Thera collapsed into the sea a volcano erupted. He thinks that before the explosion Thera had been the home of people called Mino ans. The Minoans were sea traders who ruled the Aegean Sea from 2000 B.C. to 1250 B.C.

Scientists who have come to investigate Thera have found an accident city buried beneath volcanic ash and stone. It appears that the people who lives in the city had an advanced civilization. They were probably Mimo ans.

Native Americans probably arrived from Asia in successive waves over several millennia, crossing a plain hundreds of miles wide that now lies inundated by 160 feet of water released by melting glaciers. For several periods of time, the first beginning around 60,000 BC. and the last ending around 7,000BC., this land bridge was open. The first people travelled in the dusty trails of the animals they hunted. They brought with them not only their families, weapons, and tools but also a broad metaphysical understanding, sprung from dreams and visions and articulated in myth and song, which complemented their scientific and historical knowledge of the lives of animals and people. All this they shaped in a variety of languages, bringing into being oral literatures of power and beauty.

Contemporary readers, forgetting the origins of western epic, lyric, and dramatic forms, are easily disposed to think of "literature only as something written. But on reflection it becomes clear that the more critically useful as well as the more frequently employed sense of the term concerns the artfulness of the verbal creation, not its mode of presentation. Ultimately, literature is aesthetically valued, regardless of language, culture, or mode of presentation, because some significant verbal achievement results from the struggle in words between tradition and talent. Verbal art has the ability to shape out a compelling inner vision in some skillfully crafted public verbal form.

Of course, the differences between the written and oral modes of expression are not without consequences for an understanding of Native American literature. The essential difference is that a speech event is an evolving communication, an "emergent form", the shape, functions, and aesthetic values of which become more clearly realized over the course of the performance. In performing verbal art, the performer assumes responsibility for the manners as well as the content of the performance, while the audience assumes the responsibility for evaluating the performer's competence in both areas. It is this intense mutual engagement that elicits the display of skill and shapes the emerging performance. Where written literature provides us with a tradition of texts, oral literature offers a tradition of performances.

Question 46: The word "compelling" is closet in meaning to

A. joyous                       B. intricate                      C. competing                   D. forceful

Question 47: What is the main point of the second paragraph ?

A. Oral narratives are a valid form of literature.
B. Public performance is essential to verbal art.
C. Native Americans have a strong oral tradition in art.
D. The production of literature provides employment for many artists.

Question 48: According to the passage, what responsibility does the audience of a verbal art performance have?

A. They provide financial support for performances
B. They judge the quality of the content and presentation
C. They participate in the performance by chanting responses.
D. They determine the length of the performance by requesting a continuation.

Question 49: Which of the following is NOT true of the Native American literature discussed in the passage?

A. It involves acting                                           B. It has ancient origins
C. It has a set form D. It expresses an inner vision.

Question 50: What can be inferred from the passage about the difference between written and oral literature?

A. Written literature reflects social values better than oral literature does.
