  Reading Comprehension

  A

  Monday: This camping trip idea was not getting off to a very good start. It was raining and the tent leaked. The hiking seemed to take forever, and I still couldn’t understand how it could all have been up the hill! How did I ever let my brother talk me into this? When we get home — he’s going to have to do something great to get back on my good side. Maybe he should sponsor a shopping spree(狂购)at the mall!

  Tuesday: Things were looking up. The sun came out today, so we were able to leave the tents and dry out. We camped at the edge of a small lake that I couldn’t see before because of the rain and fog. The mountains were all around us, and the forest was absolutely beautiful. We spent most of the day dragging everything out of our backpacks or tents and putting them where the sun could dry them out. Later in the afternoon we tried to catch the fish for dinner, but the fish were smarter than we were. At night we built a fire and sang songs happily.

  Wednesday: We hiked to the far side of the lake and climbed to the top of a small peak. From there we could see how high the other mountains were and how far the forest spread around us. On the way up we passed through a snowfield!

  Thursday: I caught my first fish! We followed the stream that fed the lake. After about two miles, we came to a section that Carol said looked 揻ishy? She had a pack rod( b竿), which could be carried in a backpack. I asked to cast it, and I caught a fish on my first try. Carol caught a few more. But they were just too pretty to eat for lunch, so we put them back in the stream.

  Friday: I can’t believe we are going home already. It will be nice to get a hot shower, sleep in a real bed, and eat junk food, but the trip has been wonderful. We’re already talking about another camping adventure next year where we will canoe down a river. It’s hard to believe, but I think this city girl has a little country blood in her veins.

  Dear Native college students,

  As a new academic year approaches, I want to share some words from my heart. They aren’t just from me; they are shared experiences and stories I’ve learned from family, classmates, and Native college students.

  Like many of you, I knew college was in my pathway. And I fulfilled that dream, graduating with a doctorate(博士学位) from the University of Arizona last year.

  Let’s share a story about Jessie. Throughout high school, she was teased for not looking Native. Her family often made life more difficult; they told her she would be a failure. During those dark days, she talked with her great-grandmother. Jessie shared, ?My great-grandmother told me, ‘You shouldn’t question your life. You were put on this earth for a reason. You shouldn’t take away the life you were given.’ It was what I needed to hear at that time. I was fortunate enough to have talked to her the way I did.”

  We as Native peoples have gone through much adversity(困境), yet we have persevered(坚持). It’s because we have the ability to transform the negative into the positive. It’s the belief that we have to move forward, for our people and future generations.

  I often ask Native students why they are in college. Most tell me their purpose is to help our people. Many Natives see that the possibilities for a promising future rely upon obtaining a college degree. If you have yet to consider these reasons for attending and graduating from college, think about these transformative intentions.

  College may seem like a lonely journey, but remember you’re not alone. Many of us are praying for you, willing to listen to your experiences, and can help remind you about why you are on this journey. When you walk across the stage and receive your degree, we’ll be glad for you. So, keep going; we are with you.

  With love,

  Amanda R. Tachine (Navajo), Ph.D.
