Read the passage carefully.
The Yellow River is often called the "cradle of Chinese
civilization." It was along the banks of the Yellow River
where the Chinese civilization first formed. The Yellow
River is 3,395 miles long, making it the sixth longest river
in the world. It is also called the Huang He River.
Early Chinese farmers built small villages along the
Yellow River. The rich yellow-colored soil was good for
growing a grain called millet. The farmers of this area
also raised sheep and cattle.
