21、Bali(巴厘岛) is an Indonesia island that is rich in indigenous (本土的) culture.A lot of people say that Balinese culture is unique and that the people of Bali have always been contented with the “now”.If you ask a Balinese person what heaven is like, the probable answer will be "just like Bali".This only goes to show that most Balinese people are happy to be where they are and never worry.
One factor that contributes to this laid-back lifestyle is the culture of close family ties in Bali.In the Balinese culture, support is always available.Balinese extended families are so tightly knit that all members usually reside in the same complex.
Hinduism(印度教)is one of the main religions in Bali.The Balinese culture is based on a form of this religion, which is called “Hindu Dharma”.This religion reached the island during the eleventh century.Most of the family customs and traditions as well as community lifestyles of the Balinese people are influenced by this.The religious influence even expands widely into the arts, which makes Bali distinct(不同于) from the rest of Indonesia.
In spite of the fact that tourists flood to the island every year, the Balinese people have managed to conserve their culture.Almost every native of Bali is an artist in some form or another.Parents and villagers have passed on their skills to their children, who all seem to have inclinations (意愿) either to music, dance, painting, and decor.
Another remarkable mark of the Balinese culture is the series of ceremonies and rituals(仪式) known as the Manusa Yadnya.This marks the different stages of Balinese life.Cremation (火葬) is very popular on this island,and unlike in the West, death is a joyous and colorful event for the Balinese.
【1】What do we know about the Balinese according to the first two paragraphs?
A. They lead a very relaxing but unhealthy life.

22、I’ve worked in the factories surrounding my hometown every summer since I graduated from high school, but making the transition between school and full-time blue-collar work during the break never gets any easier. For a student like me who considers any class before noon to be uncivilized, getting to a factory by 6 o’clock each morning is torture (折磨). My friends never seem to understand why I’m so relieved to be back at school or that my summer vacation has been anything but a vacation.
There’re few people as self-confident as a college student who had never been out in the real world. People my age always seem to overestimate the value of their time and knowledge. In fact, all the classes did not prepare me for my battles with the machine I ran in the plant, which would break down whenever I absent-mindedly put in a part backward or upside down.
The most stressful thing about blue-collar life is knowing your job could disappear overnight. Issues like downsizing and overseas relocation had always seemed distant to me until my co-workers told me that the unit I was working in would shut down within six months and move to Mexico, where people would work for 60 cents an hour.
After working 12-hour shifts in a factory, the other opinions have become only too clear. When I’m back at the university, skipping classes and turning in poor essays seems too irresponsible after seeing what I would be doing without school. All the advice and public-service announcements about the value of an education that used to sound boring now ring true.
These lessons I’m learning, however valuable, are always tinged with a sense of guilt. And my experiences in the factories has inspired me to make the most of my college years before I enter the real world for good.

A.They expect too much from the real world.

【3】In what important way has the author’s work experience changed him?
A.He learned to be more practical.

23、One day an ant was drinking at a small stream and fell in. She made desperate (拼死的) efforts to reach the side, but made no progress at all.

24、 When British musician Paul Barton performs in central Thailand lately, his energetic listeners react wildly. Some pull his hair or jump on his piano. Others steal his music. The behavior is normal, however, because these crowds are truly barbaric-monkeys to be exact.
Barton plays often to the animals in Lopburi, an area known for its populations of macaque monkeys. The pianist hopes the music shows bring calm to the animals during the coronavirus crisis. The disease has caused problems for the monkeys, too. They are hungry. The "restrictions on tourism mean fewer people come to see the monkeys and feed them.

However, he added, “I wasn't going to let those things distract from the project which is to play the music for these wonderful macaques. In fact, I was surprised to find that they were actually eating the music as I was playing it.”
The monkeys are Barton's latest animal fans. Past wildlife audiences included elephants living in special protected areas.
