READING COMPREHENSION

Bali, the fabled "Island of the Gods", has been enchanting visitors for centuries with its rich
cultural traditions and spectacular panoramas. From lofty, mist enshrouded volcanoes and cool
mountain lakes down through terraced rice fields to a golden strand lapped by azure waters, every
square inch of Bali offers a fresh and unforgettable image.

No less enchanting are its people, some 2.7 million souls whose artistry and piety are recognized
throughout the world Balinese Hinduism, a complex fusion of Indian cosmology. Tantric Buddhism and
homegrown mythology, is the primary faith of Bali's inhabitants, and so deeply woven into the fabric of
their daily lives that the line between the spiritual and the material is blurry at best.

Those of you keen on delving into the island's fascinating culture will have plenty of
opportunities, as colorful ceremonies and traditional performances occur with regularity of sunrise.
Most hotels offer nightly dance shows of one form or another, tailored to tourist audiences but none the
less exquisite. The hill town of Ubud, the island's premier arts center, also has a full schedule of
performance, and the nearby stone-cutter's village of Batubulan is famed for its Barong lion dances. The
shoppers among you will find Bali a treasure house of handicrafts and fine works of art. The Balinese are
incredibly gifted artists and craftsmen, and their material creations are imbued with the same sense of
wonderment with which they regard their universe. Stone and wood carvings, traditional and modern
paintings and intricately designed jewelry in gold and silver are readily in shops and galleries
throughout the island.

As for recreation, there is no shortage of options. Nature walks, horseback riding, diving, surfing,
even bunny jumping, and white water rafting await the adventurous here.

Dating Customs Around the World

Dating is rare in Afghanistan because most marriages are arranged by parents, and schools are separate
for boys and girls. The opportunities to meet are rare. Girls have a 7:00 pm curfew, while boys have an
11:00 pm curfew.

It is against the law to date in Iran. Teens are separated until they are of marrying age, then their
families introduce them to each other and sometimes a courtship follows.

Most teens go out in large groups and don't pair off until they are 18 or 19 years old in Australia. Girls
often ask boys out and pay for the date, too. Couples often go to dinner parties, barbecues, or the beach.

Dating is usually a group event in Europe. In Spain, teens join a pandilla, a club for a group of friends
with the same interests, like cycling or hiking. Dating is done one-to-one and both girls and boys ask each
other out and split the cost of the evening's entertainment.
 In Russia, dates take place at dances or at clubs where teens eat or chat with friends. As many as 30
teens may come to a cinema to attend a movie together. In small towns, teens meet in the streets downtown
or gather around a fountain.

In Japan and Korea, most high school students don't date or go to parties, but spend their time studying
instead. Dating begins in college, when only boys do the asking and pay for the dates.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions.
 In the transitional phase between adolescence and adulthood, teenagers encounter numerous
challenges that shape their future. One crucial aspect often overlooked is the development of life skills.
These skills, ranging from effective communication to problem-solving, play a pivotal role in preparing
teenagers for the complexities of adult life.
One vital life skill is communication. As teenagers navigate relationships with peers, family, and
teachers, the ability to express thoughts and feelings becomes paramount. Effective communication not
only fosters healthy relationships but also builds confidence and self-esteem. Another essential life skill is
time management. With academic responsibilities, extracurricular activities, and social commitments,
teenagers often find themselves juggling multiple tasks. Learning to prioritize and allocate time efficiently
equips them to handle the demands of adulthood successfully. Problem-solving is yet another critical
skill. Life is full of challenges, and teenagers benefit greatly from developing the ability to analyze
situations and find solutions. This skill not only aids in academic pursuits but also prepares them to tackle
real-world challenges independently. Financial literacy is increasingly important in today's complex
world. Teaching teenagers about budgeting, saving, and making informed financial decisions empowers
them to navigate the financial challenges that await them in adulthood.
In conclusion, fostering life skills in teenagers is essential for their overall development. These skills not
only contribute to academic success but also lay the foundation for a successful and fulfilling adult life.
Parents, educators, and society as a whole play a crucial role in imparting and reinforcing these invaluable
life skills to the younger generation.
