Read the following passage and choose the best answer to each of the questions from 29 to 32.
Sequoyah was a young Cherokee Indian, son of a white trader and an Indian woman. At an
early age, he became fascinated by the “ talking leaf” , an expression that he used to describe the
white man’s written records. Although many believed this “ talking leaf” to be the gift from the
Great Spirit, Sequoyah refused to accept that theory. Like other Indians of the period, he was
illiterate but his determination to change the situation led to the invention of an unique 86-
character alphabet based on the sound patterns that he heard. His family and friends thought him
mad, but while recovering from a hunting accident, he diligently and independently set out to
create a form of communication for his own people as well as for other Indians. In 1821, after
twelve years of work, he had successfully developed a written language that they would enable
thousands of Indians to read and write.
Sequoyah’s desire to preserve words and events for later generations has caused him to be
remembered among the important inventors. The giant redwood trees of California, called “
sequoias” in his honour, will further imprint his name in history.

famous.
