This is the text (if you need help).
A tourist got a one-year jail sentence in Bali. He said bad things about a festival called the Day of Silence. It is a special time for Hindus. People stay at home and be quiet. The tourist broke the rules. He went outside. He made a video and used bad language. He was arrested after his video made Balinese people angry.
The Day of Silence is hundreds of years old. People in Bali are quiet for one day. Bali's airport shuts down and people have less access to the internet. Traditional workers can go outside. They make sure people are indoors. The tourist did not understand how important the festival was. He did not mean to make people angry.
Back to the Day of Silence lesson.
