Greece's disappearing whistled language

Hidden deep in the south-east corner of the Greek island of Evia, above a twisting maze of ravines that tumbles toward the Aegean Sea, the tiny village of Antia clings to the slopes of Mount Ochi. There are no hotels or restaurants within 40km, and the hamlet is so remote that it doesn’t exist on Google Maps.

But as you travel here along a dizzying road from Karystos, through a mythical landscape of megalithic ‘dragon house’ stone tombs and giant Cyclopic boulders, you’ll hear an ancient siren song reverberating against the mountain walls. That’s because for thousands of years, the inhabitants of Antia have used a remarkable whistled language that resembles the sounds of birds to communicate across the distant valleys.

Known as sfyria, it’s one of the rarest and most endangered languages in the world – a mysterious form of long-distance communication in which entire conversations, no matter how complex, can be whistled. For the last two millennia, the only people who have been able to sound and understand sfyria’s secret notes are the shepherds and farmers from this hillside hamlet, each of whom has proudly passed down the tightly guarded tradition to their children. But in the last few decades, Antia’s population has dwindled from 250 to 37, and as older whistlers lose their teeth, many can no longer sound sfyria’s sharp notes.

\(Tiếng huýt sáo biến mất của Hy Lạp Nằm sâu trong góc phía nam-nam của hòn đảo Evia của Hy Lạp, trên một mê cung xoáy vòng quanh những khe núi rải rác về phía biển Aegean, ngôi làng nhỏ bé Antia nằm trên sườn núi Ochi. Không có khách sạn hoặc nhà hàng nào trong vòng 40 km, và ấp là từ xa mà nó không tồn tại trên Google Maps. Nhưng khi bạn đi du lịch dọc theo một con đường táo bạo từ Karystos, thông qua một cảnh quan huyền bí của những ngôi mộ đá đá tảng và những tảng đá Cyclopic khổng lồ, bạn sẽ nghe thấy một bài hát còi báo trước cổ vang lên những bức tường núi. Đó là vì hàng nghìn năm nay, cư dân Antia đã sử dụng một ngôn ngữ huýt sáo đặc biệt giống với âm thanh của chim để giao tiếp qua các thung lũng xa xôi. Được biết đến như sfyria, đó là một trong những ngôn ngữ hiếm và nguy hiểm nhất trên thế giới - một hình thức bí ẩn của truyền thông đường dài, trong đó toàn bộ cuộc hội thoại, cho dù phức tạp có thể bị huýt sáo. Trong hai thiên niên kỷ vừa qua, những người duy nhất có thể nghe và hiểu được những ghi chép bí mật của người Sfyria là những người chăn cừu và nông dân từ ấp thôn dã này, mỗi người trong số họ đã tự hào truyền lại truyền thống được bảo vệ chặt chẽ cho con cái họ. Nhưng trong vài thập niên gần đây, dân số của Antia đã giảm từ 250 xuống còn 37, và vì những tiếng huýt sáo lâu năm mất răng, nhiều người không còn có thể ghi lại những ghi chú sắc nét của người Sfyria.\)

Every drop of water in the ocean, even in the deepest parts, responds to the forces that create the tides. No other force that affects the sea is so strong. Compared with the tides, the waves created by the wind are surface movements feltno more than a hundred fathoms below the surface. The currents also seldom involve more than the upper several hundred fathoms despite their impressive sweep.

The tides are a response of the waters of the ocean to the pull of the Moon and the more distant Sun. In theory, there is a gravitational attraction between the water and even the outermost star of the universe. In reality, however, the pull of remote stars is so slight as to be obliterated by the control of the Moon and, to a lesser extent, the Sun. Just as the Moon rises later each day by fifty minutes, on the average, so, in most places, the time of high tide iscorrespondingly later each day. And as the Moon waxes and wanes in its monthly cycle, so the height of the tide varies. The tidal movements are strongest when the Moon is a sliver in the sky, and when it is full. These are the highest flood tides and the lowest ebb tides of the lunar month and are called the spring tides. At these times, the Sun, Moon, and Earth are nearly in line and the pull of the two heavenly bodies is added together to bring the water high on the beaches, to send its surf upward against the sea cliffs, and to draw a high tide into the harbors. Twice each month, at the quarters of the Moon, when the Sun, Moon, and Earth lie at the apexes of a triangular configuration and the pull of the Sun and Moon are opposed, the moderate tidal movements called neap tides occur. Then the difference between high and low water is less than at any other time during the month.

Choose A, B, C, or D

1. The main point of the first paragraph is ...

A. The wave created by ocean currents are very large

B. Despite the strength of the wind, it only moves surface water

C. Deep ocean water is seldom affected by forces that move water

D. The tides are the most powerful force to affect the movement of ocean water

2. The word "In reality" in the third sentence of the second paragraph is closest in meaning to

A. Surprisingly

B. Actually

C. Characteristically

D. Similarly

3. According to the passage, the most vital factor in recognizing how much gravitational effect one object in space has on the tides is

A. Size

B. Distance

C. Temperature

D. Density

4. In the ninth sentence of the second paragraph, the word "configuration" is closest in meaning to

A. Unit

B. Center

C. Surface

D. Arrangement

5. Neap tides occur when

A. The sun counteracts the moon's gravitational attraction

B. The moon is full

C. The moon is farthest from the sun

D. Waves created by the wind combine with the moon's gravitational attraction

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

  Since water is the basis of life, composing the greater part of the tissues of all living things, the crucial problem of desert animals is to survive in a world where sources of flowing water are rare. And since man’s inexorable necessity is to absorb large quantities of water at frequent intervals, he can scarcely comprehend that many creatures of the desert pass their entire lives without a single drop.

   Uncompromising as it is, the desert has not eliminated life but only those forms unable to withstand its desiccating effects. No moist- skinned, water-loving animals can exist there. Few large animals are found. The giants of the North American desert are the deer, the coyote, and the bobcat. Since desert country is open, it holds more swift-footed running and leaping creatures than the tangled forest. Its population is largely nocturnal, silent, filled with reticence, and ruled by stealth. Yet they are not emaciated. Having adapted to their austere environment, they are as healthy as animals anywhere else in the word. The secret of their adjustment lies in the combination of behavior and physiology. None could survive if, like mad dogs and Englishmen, they went out in the midday sun; many would die in a matter of minutes. So most of them pass the burning hours asleep in cool, humid burrows underneath the ground, emerging to hunt only by night. The surface of the sun-baked desert averages around 150 degrees, but 18 inches down the temperature is only 60 degrees.

Question: We can infer from the passage that

A. healthy animals live longer lives

B. living things adjust to their environment

C. desert life is colorful and diverse

D. water is the basis of desert life
