PART ONE: READING

A. Read the text.

The Amish are a group of people who believe inliving separately

from the modern world. Theylive in Canada and the USA in small
farming communities of about 300 people. These people do not
drive cars or fly in aero planes, but simply drive horses and carts.
As a result, their communities are small and close, and their
children do not usually move to another area when they grow up.
Family values and traditions are very important to the Amish. At
home, they speak a very old-fashioned version of German,
although they also speak English when it is necessary.

They wear very simple clothing. The men wear wide black hats,
plain trousers, and shirts. After they marry, the men grow beards. The women, and even the little
girls, wear bonnets (a kind of old-fashioned hat) and long dresses. They make their living from
farming, using old traditional methods. Their houses do not have electricity or telephones.

Their children finish school at about the age of 12 or 13; after that they work on their farm.
All other children in the USA must attend school for another four years.

Many people do not understand the simple and slow way of Amish life. But the Amish believe that
modern society is too stressful and materialistic.
