“I believe in holding onto traditions because they helped our family flourish

（兴旺）

in a new country.

But this concept is more concretely expressed this way: I believe in feeding monkeys on my birthday —

something I’ve done without fail for 35 years.

In the Burmese jungle, monkeys are as common as pigeons. But in America, feeding monkeys

means violating the rules.

As a kid, I thought that was cool. I learned English through watching bad television shows and

expected that I was the chosen warrior(勇士) sent to defend my family. Dad and I would go to the zoo

early in the morning, just the two of us. When the Coast was clear, I would throw my peanuts to the

monkeys.

I never had to explain myself until my 18th birthday. It was the first year I didn’t go with my father.

I went with my friends and arrived 10 minutes after the zoo gates closed. “Please,” I begged the

zookeeper, “I feed monkeys for my family, not for me. Can’t you make an exception?” “Go find a pet

store,” she said.

If only it were so easy. That time, I got lucky. I found out that a high school classmate trained the

monkeys for the movie Out of Africa, so he allowed me to feed his monkeys. Once a man with a pet

monkey suspected that my story was a ploy — that I was an animal rights activist out to liberate his

monkey. Another time, a zoo told me that outsiders could not feed the monkeys without violating the

zookeepers’ collective bargaining agreement. Once in a pet store, I managed to feed a marmoset(狨)

being kept in a birdcage. Another time, I was asked to wear a special suit to feed a laboratory monkey.

It’s rarely easy and, yet, somehow I’ve found a way to feed a monkey every year since I was born.

24. Why has the author fed monkeys all these years?

A. To please his father. B. To develop a new hobby.

C. To celebrate his birthday. D. To keep up his family tradition.

25. How did the author and his father feed the zoo monkeys?

A. They did it in a secret way. B. They pretended to be warriors.

C. They did it with the help of friends. D. They got the zookeeper’s permission.

26. What does the underlined word “ploy” in Paragraph 5 mean?

A. Joke. B. Trick. C. Excuse. D. Adventure.

27. How is the fifth paragraph mainly developed?

A. By providing examples. B. By giving explanations.

C. By following time order. D. By making comparisons.

As restaurants, malls and movie theaters fill back up with people, the workplace has remained nearly

empty. This is partly driven by how common remote work has become in society. People have invested in

creating workspaces in their homes, relocated to smaller towns and even taken their work to vacation

resorts. Now, with an easing pandemic and slowing economy, companies are increasingly trying to draw

employees back into the office. But many just don't want to go.

Though seen as a necessity during the pandemic, some business leaders doubt whether the current

level of remote work is sustainable. And they're right. A fully virtual workplace misses some of the key

drivers for performance and productivity, which are top of mind right now for businesses facing the

prospect of a potential recession(衰退). Understandably, they want workers back in the office because

they're preparing for a more competitive environment, which calls for maximizing efficiency. Fully remote

work doesn't cultivate the level of interpersonal relationships that business leaders see as vital to

workplace innovation.

When companies are responding to market shifts and economic stresses, new ideas, problem solving

and brainstorming all become essential. And brainstorming sessions are much easier to conduct in person,

where workers can exchange their ideas in conference rooms or shared work spaces. Remote workers,

meanwhile, are more prone to distractions at home that can disrupt their concentration and participation.

It's not just what happens in formal meetings that adds value. It's also the organic connections and

culture-building that occurs when workers run into each other in the hallways or after a company gathering.

It's these spontaneous(自发的) opportunities to inquire into the details that are missed when one is

working remotely.

Undoubtedly, there will be workers who don't agree. But leaders owe it to all share holders, including

workers, to make the best policy decisions. Policy can't just make sense for workers. It must also make

business sense in order to preserve opportunities for workers to work; it must make financial sense in order

to protect opportunities for workers to earn a living.

28. What do we know about remote work?

A. It was popular in smaller towns. B. It slowed down the economy.

C. It was necessary during the pandemic. D. It brought people to public places.

29. Why do leaders want workers back in the office?

A. To improve workers’ efficiency. B. To create a relaxed atmosphere.

C. To cultivate friendlier relationships. D. To explore workers' potential.

30.According to the author, what must be prioritized when the best policy decisions are made?

A. The ambitions of the leaders. B. The comfort of the employees.

C. The interests of the businesses. D. The ability of the shareholders.

31. What is the best title for the text?

A. Fully Remote Work Likely to Disappear

B. Remote Workers Losing Their Jobs

C. Policymakers Caught in a Dilemma

D. Companies Struggling with Slowing Economy

The mass death of flying foxes in extreme heat in North Queensland last month underlines the

importance of University of Queensland wildlife research released today. The UQ research sheds light on

how various species have responded to major climate events.
