Many of the Indians in these areas lived in large settlements where the houses were made from stone or dry mud. The people were experts at weaving and they made clothing and blankets that had beautiful artistic designs. Near the eastern coast of North America, many Indians lived by a combination of farming and hunting.
这些地区的许多印第安人居住在大型定居点，房屋由石头或干泥土建造。人们擅长编织，他们制作的衣服和毯子具有精美的艺术设计。在北美东海岸附近，许多印第安人靠耕种和狩猎为生。
These people lived in fortified villages, some of which were inhabited for many years at a time. In some places, they built large earthworks that can still be seen today. In the forests of northern Canada, the Indians live primarily by hunting, fishing, and gathering. Like the Indians of the prairie regions, they often move from place to place in search of game animals to hunt.
这些人住在设防的村庄里，其中一些村庄一次居住多年。在一些地方，他们建造了至今仍可见的大型土方工程。在加拿大北部的森林中，印第安人主要靠狩猎、捕鱼和采集为生。像草原地区的印第安人一样，他们经常从一个地方搬到另一个地方寻找猎物。
Today, the Indians of North America no longer live in their traditional ways; however, several Indian languages are still spoken by many thousands of people. Also, many Indians in the United States and Canada are very interested in maintaining the cultural tradition of their ancestors.
今天，北美印第安人不再过着传统的生活；然而，仍有成千上万的人使用几种印第安语言。此外，美国和加拿大的许多印第安人非常有兴趣维护他们祖先的文化传统。
