薩勒克的山脈過去被大片冰層覆蓋。大約九千年前，冰層消融，留下了約一百座冰川。不久之后，馴鹿開始出現(xiàn)。跟著馴鹿之后來的是薩米人，他們在這片土地上安家落戶。這里交通極為不便，因此，除了薩米人，很少有人見過薩勒克。1909年，薩勒克被辟為國家公園，以保持這片土地的自然狀態(tài)。只有薩米人可以在園內(nèi)繼續(xù)其傳統(tǒng)生活方式，其他人不能在此居住，而且公園邊界內(nèi)禁止一切開發(fā)活動。在山谷的另一邊，可以看到一間古老的薩米人的小屋，旁邊有幾只馴鹿正在吃草。

ManatPeacewithNature幾百年來，照料馴鹿是薩米人的一種生活方式。他們用馴鹿的肉制作食物，用其骨頭制作工具，并用其皮毛制作衣服和帳篷。由于馴鹿不斷遷移，薩米人會收起帳篷，跟隨而去。如今，大多數(shù)薩米人在薩勒克附近的村莊里都有自己的房屋，過著與他們的鄰居一樣的生活。但是每年春天，少數(shù)薩米人仍會跟隨馴鹿進(jìn)入薩勒克的山谷，居住在帳篷或舊屋里，享受他們的傳統(tǒng)。我不是薩米人，但是在薩勒克，我養(yǎng)成了薩米人的一些生活習(xí)慣。例如，今天早晨，我的早餐是火堆上烤熱的大餅、馴鹿肉干以及在帳篷周圍長的一些酸甜莓果。4_________________________________Afterbreakfast,Ipackmybagandsetoutagain.SinceImustcarryallofmyfoodandsupplieswithme,mybagweighsabout30kilograms.Iftodayisanythinglikeyesterday,itwillbefullofsweatandhardworkasIhikeoverthisdifficultlandtomydestinationontheothersideofthevalley.However,Icannotcomplain.Beinginsuchabeautifulandwildplacemakesmefeelblessedtobealive.HereIam,aloneunderthisbroadsky,breathingthefreshair,andenjoyingthisgreatadventure.Whatcouldbebetter?ALandofAdventure1.setout出發(fā)；啟程2.supplies(軍隊(duì)或者探險(xiǎn)隊(duì)等的)補(bǔ)給；補(bǔ)給品3.anythinglike與---相像；多少有點(diǎn)像4.hikeover徒步穿越5.feelblessedtodosth做某事感到幸福6.breathing---andenjoying并列現(xiàn)在分詞短語作伴隨狀語。Afterbreakfast,Ipackmybagandsetout
