21、Given the crowds of visitors and many attractions at the Disney parks, it's easy to get lost. Thankfully, you will always find a worker to point you in the right direction. When you do, you just might start to notice something unique about their body language—and it's just one of the many secrets Disney employees won't tell you.
Cast members, as park employees are called, are taught in their training to always point with two fingers instead of one. The first reason for this is that pointing with just the one index finger(食指), as most Americans do, is considered impolite in some cultures and countries. The Disney parks have always attracted many international visitors, so the friendlier two-finger gesture became the norm among employees, in an effort to be sensitive and welcoming to every person. Employees have even affectionately named it "the Disney point”. Michaela Paris, a former Disney employee, said the Disney point is a sign of respect.
"Disney receives plenty of foreign travelers to their parks. The typical single finger point is a symbol of disrespect and has a negative(负面的) meaning in many cultures. Therefore, Disney created 'the Disney point' to accommodate all of their guests, " Paris said.
Other sources say this way of pointing is related to Disney himself. According to the Huffington Post, it's actually how Walt Disney himself used to point things out to visitors, because he usually had a cigarette balanced between the two fingers. You won't find cast members today smoking a cigarette—there's no smoking allowed for anyone, employees or guests, once you are inside the entrances at Disney parks—but the tradition of pointing with two fingers still stands.
Keep an eye out for the statue of Walt and Mickey doing "the Disney point" next time you're at Disney World. Meanwhile don't miss other such rules that all Disney employees must follow.
【1】When will a visitor probably notice "the Disney point"?
A．When asking the way.
B．When entering the park.
C．When greeting foreigners.
D．When smoking a cigarette.
【2】What does “the Disney point” refer to?
A．A gesture.
B．An employee.
C．A park.
D．A statue.
【3】What does the underlined word "accommodate" in paragraph 3 mean?
A．offer space to.
B．put up.
C．provide food for.
D．adapt to.
【4】What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A．Rules to follow in the park.
B．The life story of Walt Disney.
C．Some attractions at Disney World.
D．A possible origin of “the Disney point”.

23、After all the waiting, I finally received my first vaccine against COVID-19 in mid-April. So what did I do? I turned up the music and danced - with abandon, with joy and with relief. What is a 66-year-old woman doing dancing by herself? This is what I have been doing my entire life.
There was no real structure to my dancing: no lessons, competitions or prizes. As an only child, I spent hours dancing alone, when not reading on my bed. I would turn up the Telefunken console that my dad had brought back from Germany and played and replayed my favorite songs .
At Chatelard School, my strict British all-girls boarding school in the Swiss mountains, we teenagers threw off our uniforms and danced our little hearts out, barefoot in our nighties. Being against every rule, I was then sent to stare at a spot in the dark hallway, shivering in the same white nightie.
I have danced in moments of joy, but also of stress and anxiety. For me, it is a ritual. For me, dance is a release, a liberation, a joy, self-medication, and self-expression. For me, dance is always about losing myself in a feeling of liberation.
I look back on the role that Zumba played in helping me through sad times. It gave me the strength and courage to leave a marriage. When my father was dying of cancer, I cried through the classes, barely able to follow the instructor. During those last few years in my job, I turned up my Zumba activity that prepared me for those final days before early retirement.
But there was also joy: My Jimmy Choos danced with me at my daughter’s wedding. I danced to live music with my partner Ted at his birthday party, and there was that New Year’s Eve in Paris, where we danced on the tables.

25、Broken Bones Don’t Get in the Way of a Big Break
Matt Shilcock lives to dance-and he will break his bones to prove it.
Shilcock, 33, was born with osteogenesis imperfect (成骨不全症). It is effectively inevitable that bones in his body will break. Shilcock was in a wheelchair as he grew up in Adelaide, until the determined teenager _________ it when he turned 15.

Having a regular day job was never going to happen _________ dance occupied Shilcock’s mind.
“I _________ took up dancing because it was just cheaper than physiotherapy. As I started to gain more confidence and competence moving my body, _________ injuries and coming back from injuries and learning my physical potential, just the _________ that came with that was really addictive,” he said.
And so he began a career on the stage, with an 18-month acting course progressing to his first dance show in 2010 with the Restless Dance Company. He had gone from project to project for a decade before _________ the big one, a mentorship (顾问) with the acclaimed Australian Dance Theatre (ADT) last year.
