Tribes (部落) in Danger
The Jarawa, a tribe of 200-300 people, live on the Andaman Islands in the Indian Ocean. They look very different from their Indian neighbours. Most probably, their closest relatives are Africans. No one outside the tribe really speaks their language, so not much 1 (know) about them.
But we do know 2 the Jarawa live. They are nomadic (游牧) people, 3 (move) from place to place to find food. They hunt small animals and fish, they find berries, honey, and they are self-sufficient — they do everything by 4 .
The threats to the Jarawa started in 1970. A road was built through the forest 5 they live, and the Indian authorities decided to build towns and “settlers” were brought from other places 6 (live) in them. They also wanted the Jarawa to live in the towns. This policy is called “forced settlement”, and it has been a disaster for tribal peoples in places all over the world. It’s clear why: Because 7 forced settlement, tribes are no longer self-sufficient, and they can easily get new diseases. A tribe’s sense of identity can easily be destroyed.
But in the case of the Jarawa, it seems that the fight against these dangers has been successful, thanks to Survival, an organization 8 (devote) to protecting endangered tribes, and the campaigns that they’ve organized. For a number of years, Survival asked the Indian government to respect the Jarawa’s rights to live on their land. As a result of the campaign, there was a court case. Eventually not only should the 9 (authority) close the road through the Jarawa’s land, but also remove the settlers. Now Survival 10 (fight) for the Jarawa’s right to own their land and to make their own choices about the way they live.
