科目:高中英語 來源: 題型:
La Gomera is the only place in the world which has a whistle ( 口哨) language. We do not know how and why it began because we do not know the complete history of the island. But we can certainly imagine the reasons for the beginning of the whistle language. There are many deep valleys on the island. A person on one side of a valley cannot easily shout to a person on the other side. But he can whistle and be heard. Some of the best whistlers can be heard from four miles away and the record is seven miles.
The people who live on the island usually have good teeth,and this helps them to whistle well. They must also have good ears so that they can hear other whistlers.
We can understand why the whistle language con?tinues. It is very useful on the island,and quite easy to learn. When somebody is hurt or ill,the whistle lan?guage takes the place of telephone. If the sick person is quite far away from the town,people pass the message from one to another. A boy guarding cattle on a hillside whistles to a man fishing from his boat. The last one is able to describe the trouble fully and exactly to the doc?tor in town. People help one another in the same way when a car breaks down or a cow is lost.
The whistle language is hundreds of years old,and probably it will continue to live on for hundreds of years more. Radio and TV often kill the special ways of speaking in different parts of a country. But on La Gomera you are nobody if you cannot whistle. Perhaps soon after TV arrives on the island? people there will be whistling the news and other facts and opinions.
