26、At the ongoing FIFA World Cup in Qatar, you may have noticed this strange scene at the beginning of each game. As the soccer players line up ready to walk onto the field they take the hand of a smiling and excited child next to them and walk out with them hand in hand.

The practice of sending children out with the players first took place from time to time throughout the 1990s. One child, also called a player escort, would accompany a team out at the beginning of an important game. From the year 2000 onwards, this custom started happening much more regularly. The 2000 Euro Championships was one of the first major soccer games where children were seen walking out with the players. But it was the 2002 FIFA World Cup where it really became popular. One of the most prominent ways this happened was by pairing up each player with a child as they walked out onto the soccer field. You can see it at the beginning of most important football games. From then on, it has become commonplace around the world for children to walk out with the players.

Ultimately soccer players walk out with a child because their club requires them to. It is in the interest of the soccer club to do this as it has potential benefits for both the child and the honor of the club. Soccer is a game that is loved by children throughout the world. Many would jump at the chance to have a taste of a real game in person. It’s also a chance for soccer club to make money. Most clubs have some sort of program where it’s possible to buy the experience of being a player escort. In England, it can be extremely expensive. A few years ago it was reported that some clubs were charging almost $800 per child to be a player escort!

27、Kaitlin Raffle’s dream to end poverty(贫困)started when she was visiting her father, who worked for the homeless.

In 2014, When Kaitlin was thirteen, she visited Central America, and saw people going hungry and families living in houses made of cardboard. That year, we set Kids on a Mission, which has helped hundreds of people there.

28、Hedy Lamarr, a Hollywood actress, who was called “the most beautiful woman in the world,” starred in dozens of films over a career that lasted decades. But there was more to Lamarr than met the eye. An enthusiastic inventor, she worked on everything from a tablet to frequency hopping — a World War II-era secure communications technology that’s used today in wireless internet, GPS, and cellphones, which makes her regarded as the “mother of Wi-Fi.”

The Austrian-born Lamarr grew up in Vienna without a lot of education in science. Her natural curiosity drove her to explore and understand the world around her.Therefore, her father, who was also interested in science and technology, often walked with her around the city, pointing out what made things work.

Lamarr's informal scientific training continued when, as a young girl in 1933, she married a wealthy arms merchant who worked with the German and Italian military. When all of these generals and admirals were coming around, she listened, absorbed and learned.

The marriage didn’t last, and Lamarr set out to seek her acting career. When she got to Hollywood in the 1930s, she quickly became an international icon(偶像). After watching World War II break out, with growing concern, Lamarr began inventing on her own. As an Austrian, she thought she should do more to contribute to the allies’s(同盟国) war efforts.

In Hollywood, Lamarr met George Antheil, a composer who would become her cooperator on the frequency-hopping technology. Together, they invented a system that made it harder for the enemy to track or jam signals on radio-guided weapons. However, it wasn’t until 1997, three years before her death, that Lamarr received professional acknowledgment(认可) for her invention.

Lamarr played the role she expected to play in Hollywood-a beautiful object to admire on the big screen. However, She never yielded to society’s expectation to women. Her story really encouraged young people, and especially young women, to go into fields that are traditionally male-oriented, and not to judge a book by its covers.

【1】What mainly made Lamarr develop her interest in science?

A．Her father.

B．Her first husband and his friends.

C．Her own curiosity.

D．Her teachers.

【2】What was special about Hedy Lamarr?

A．She was the most beautiful woman in the world at one time.

B．She was gracefully beautiful as well as scientifically intellectual.

C．She encouraged young women to invent.

D．She decided to give up her acting career after World War II broke out.

【3】What does the underlined phrase “yielded to” most probably mean in the last paragraph?

A．worried about

B．looked down on

C．disagreed with

D．gave in to

【4】Which can be the best title for the text?

A．A Great Inventor.

B．A Famous Actress.

C．A Film Star With A Great Contribution.

D．A Wireless Communication.

29、In a new study released last week，researchers analyzed data from two large-scale surveys about how Americans spend their time.

The researchers found that people with more free time generally had higher levels of subjective well-being—but only up to a point. People who had up to two hours of free time a day generally reported they felt better than those who’d had less time. But people who had five or more hours of free time a day generally said they felt worse. So the free-time “sweet spot” might be two to three hours per day, the findings suggest.

“While too little time is bad，having more time is not always better，”said Marissa Sharif, an assistant professor of marketing at The Wharton School and lead author of the paper, in a press release. Of course, most people know that being too busy can cause stress. But the new study is not the first to question whether more free time will actually make people as happy as they believe it will. Experts note，for example，that some adults struggle with the “retirement blues”, which can be due to a lack of stimulation and structure among other things.

“Sweet spot” has to do with how people spend the extra time they have, the researchers behind the new study argue. They conducted several smaller online experiments. In one they asked participants to imagine having 3 to 7 free hours per day. They were asked to imagine spending that time doing “productive” things or to imagine doing “unproductive” activities. Study participants believed theft well-being would suffer if they spend the free time unproductively.

“Of course，what feels ‘productive’ is up to you. If watching two hours of ‘Real Housewives’ in your free time increases your happiness，you should do that. The point of all of this is self-care，not shame. In other words，how people use their free time matters.” Sharif added.

【1】What feeling can be inferred from “retirement blues”?

A．Thrilled.

B．Depressed.

C．Amazed.

D．Disappointed.

【2】Why did the researchers conduct the experiments?

A．To prove people’s attitude towards free time matters.

B．To argue which survey has the convincing finding.

C．To make participants spend their spare time wisely.

D．To tell people less free time can actually cause stress.

【3】What does the underlined word “productive” in Para. 5 refer to?

A．Helping you reduce unnecessary stress.

B．Finishing more work within fixed time.

C．Making you feel good about yourself.

D．Ensuring you to take good care of yourself.

【4】What’s the text mainly about?

A．“Sweet spot” is concerned with people’s well-being.

B．More free time enables people to be much happier.

C．Productive activities make people save more time.

D．Proper spare time boosts people’s sense of happiness.
