In some remote Turkish village of Kuskoy, whistling is as important as talking.In fact, whistling is talking because the villagers speak and sing by whistling.Kuskoy parents begin to teach their boys and girls the language of whistling about the time the children learn to talk.It is considered so important that the village school includes it as one of the subjects taught along with the Turkish language.

This art of communication has taken centuries to develop.The village of Kuskoy spreads out across two hillsides that are separated by a deep valley.The villagers had to find an easy way to communicate where their voices couldn’t carry.They developed a high-pitched (高音的) whistle language that could be transmitted as far as five miles through air.As a result, Kuskoy, which means “bird village” in Turkish, has come to be known as a whistler’s paradise (樂園).

Whistling is so much part of everyday life in Kuskoy that men and women speak, argue, and court (求愛) in whistles.The story was recently told of a young couple who ran away secretly.The news was sent over the “mountain telephone” by whistling.The lover’s adventure was quickly known to all the villagers.

It is little wonder, then, that the children of Kuskoy study whistling in school.Wouldn’t it be fun to start the school day with a song—whistled of course!

The children of Kuskoy learn to whistle because __          _.

              A.it is fun                       B.it is an important way to communicate

In Kuskoy, whistling as a way of talking started __             _.

   A.recently           B.hundreds of years ago

       C.fifty years ago              D.ten years ago
