Paragraph 3

Men make sand paintings that are accurate copies of paintings from the past.The songs sung over the paintings are also faithful renditions of songs from the past.By re­creating these arts,which reflect the original beauty of creation,the Navajo bring beauty to the present world.As relative newcomers to the Southwest,a place where their climate,neighbors,and rulers could be equally inhospitable,the Navajo created these art forms to affect the world around them,not just through the recounting of the actions symbolized,but through the beauty and harmony of the artworks themselves.The paintings generally illustrate ideas and events from the life of a mythical hero,who,after being healed by the gods,gave gifts of songs and paintings.Working from memory,the artists re-create the traditional form of the image as accurately as possible.

A.The landscape of the Southwest

B.Traditional Navajo practices

C.Historical events that occurred in the Southwest

D.The lives of heroes in traditional Navajo stories
