Read this passage from the excerpt from Sacajawea. I had to say something or Captain Lewis would have been unhappy all that day. I remained silent, though, until Captain Lewis asked one more question. He made the motion in sign language that stands for our people. “What would your people, the Snakes, call us?” At last I thought I understood. “Ta-ba-bone,” I said. “Ta-ba-bone.” It is a word for those who are strangers, who might be enemies. “Ta-ba-bone,” Captain Lewis said. He was very pleased. He smiled as he turned it into black lines on a white leaf. “Ta-ba-bone.” Why is Captain Lewis pleased?

• He has thought up a word in sign language.

• He knows how to write a new word in his notes.

• He thinks he has learned the word for his people.

• He thinks he knows why he is considered an enemy.
