摘　　要：草原民族史诗中的好汉三项比赛、超自然力的考验和驯服凶猛动物考验与他们的生活民俗有着密切关系。骑马、射箭、驯服烈性马、骆驼和猎杀狼等凶猛动物是生活在草原上的一个成年男人必备的生存能力。他们只有具备了这些本领,才能在草原上生存、发展。因此,草原上的民族用赛马、摔跤、射箭、驯服烈性牲畜和凶猛野生动物等技能来考验男人,只有熟练掌握这些本领的男人,才能成为被社会公认的成年男人。赛马、摔跤、射箭、驯服烈性动物等体现男人强壮、勇敢和耐力的生存技能,后来变成草原民族考验男性成年的仪式民俗。The three games of men,test of Manito as well as tribulation of taming wild animals appear in Epics of Grassland ethnics,are closely related to folklore of the people.Those skills of riding horses,archery,taming spirited horses and camels,as well as killing wolves are the necessary viabilities of every adult man.If only they command those capabilities,they would be able to survive and reproduce.Hence,the people live in grassland assess men with horse racing,wrestling,archery and taming wild animals,only those who are succeed in the testing,would be considered as adult men.These testing types incarnate viabilities of men,and have become ritual tradition of examining adult men.
