Paraphrase :


There is something deeply conflicted about the

devotion to work, vocation, career as an ideal in

any society, but especially in one that has

zealously cast off so many of its other

repressions...

We (Americans) have all been so

oversocialized that unnatural devotion to toil

leaves its mark on every area of life. It could even

be argued that the most highly prized pleasures

have themselves become a form of work.

Read the diary entry from a Native American child, Awinita Fields Diary Entry:

Today, I helped my mother gather food for our evening meal. We left the village to search in the nearby forest. We filled two baskets with beautiful berries, some roots, and seeds. These will go well with the salmon my brothers caught in the river earlier today. They used the dugout canoe they built with father last week.

Mother and father remind us often that we should be thankful for the cedar trees. With them, we can build our houses. Our houses are long and made of cedar planks. The roofs are made from cedar bark. It keeps the rain out. The women of the village can even make clothes like skirts and raincoats from the bark. They pound it to make it into shreds first.

Tomorrow, my father and uncles will head to the mountains to hunt. They hope to bring back a deer or a bear. This would give the family more food to smoke for winter provisions. The deer hide would be good for making shoes. The bear fur would be wonderful to have for a winter cape. And I could add a bear claw to my shell necklace.

Select the statement that describes how Awinita's family uses natural resources.


A) Animals are used as a resource more than trees or plants.

B) Each resource serves one specific purpose for the family.

C) Plants and trees are used as a resource more than animals.

D) They find many different ways to use each resource.
