Many things make the 2022 World Cup one of the most unique world cups in the history of

football. Let’s take a closer look at some of the most interesting facts about the 2022 World Cup that

make it unique in every way.

1. Application of the new technology

Earlier this year Adidas revealed “Al Rihla,” the official match ball of the 2022 World Cup. Al

Rihla translates as “the journey” in Arabic and it is designed to support the highest game speeds as it

travels faster in flight than any FIFA World Cup ball created before it in the tournament’s 92-year

history. The new ball features the latest Adidas Suspension System at its core, containing

a motion sensor that tracks every touch of the game at a rate of 500 times per second.

2. Record number of visitors

One of the most interesting facts about FIFA 2022 in Qatar is the number of visitors expected to

arrive in the country during the event. As expected, the 2022 World Cup Qatar will probably receive a

record number of visitors by the time the tournament ends. The reason behind this is simple to

understand. Being one of the best countries in the Middle East, Qatar is also located right in the center

of the world and close to most of the countries in the world.

3. Stadium is equipped with Centralized Air Conditioning

While the World Cup is nearly impossible to hold during the summer given the fact that

temperatures in Qatar can touch 50 degrees celsius, switching to the winter slot has brought some

peace. However, is the problem solved? As far as winter is concerned, even daytime temperatures

during winter can be quite high. Therefore, Qatar has found a solution to this. For the first time, the

country host the World Cup in an air-conditioned stadium. All eight stadiums are fully air-conditioned,

providing fans with a comfortable viewing experience.

1. In the 2022 World Cup, which is the new ball’s feature?

A. the speed sensor B. the core C.the suspension system D. the monitor

2. Why is Qatar likely to receive a record number of visitors by the end of the 2022 World Cup?

A. Qatar is easy to reach.

B. Qatar is a beautiful country to visit.

C. Qatar is the richest country in the Middle East.

D. Qatar is close to most of the countries in the world.

3. How does Qatar address the problem that the temperature is too high?

A. Switch the game to the winter slot.

B. Cool drinks are offered to audience for free.

C. Host the World Cup in air-conditioned stadiums.

D. Fans are provided with a comfortable viewing experience.

The older I get, the more I understand how my teachers have transformed my life.

On a recent Sunday afternoon, I went to see Mr. C at Roxbury Park in Beverly Hills. His love of

life has not dimmed despite the fact that his legs no longer work like they used to. He visited some of

his former students while he was in town. At Beverly Hills High School, Mr. C taught ancient history,

coached football and golf, and risked his life teaching driver’s training on Saturday mornings from

1964 to 1988. The gray and hobbled students lined up one after another to thank their favorite teacher.

One called him a rock star. Another was grateful for helping him when he couldn’t say so. It was a

beautiful tribute, especially in these times of catastrophic teacher shortages.

Spending that Sunday in the park with Mr. C was nothing short of magic. It was a reminder of all

that is promising and possible in public education, including a teacher whose rare emotional honesty

could be appreciated and honored decades later. It also brought to mind Maya Angelou’s saying

“People will forget what you said and did, but never forget how you make them feel.” He made me

and others in the park feel heard and seen.

Mr. C changed my perception of myself. Rather than seeing myself as a loser cheerleader who

couldn’t compete with the smart kids, I realized how much I loved learning. His history class was so

interesting. In his classes about the Persians, Greeks, and Romans, extra credits can be earned for

creativity. During earthquake drills, we counted on Mr. C to scream his head off in mock terror.

It should come as little surprise that I’d value the role of teachers in my life. Both of my parents

taught; so did my siblings, aunts, uncles and cousins. I, too, have become a teacher and I try to follow

in Mr. C’s footsteps. Some days, I fantasize what it would be like to go on a teacher tour, reaching out

to my mentors to express my deep gratitude for all they’ve given me. Seeing Mr. C sparked that

fantasy again. When I finally worked up my courage to thank him, knowing a floodgate of tears would

open, he said to me with his typical modesty: “You were doing me more good than I was doing you.”

4. What does the underlined word “tribute” mean in Paragraph 2?

A. enthusiasm B. admiration C. devotion D. commitment

5. Why does the author mention Maya Angelou’s saying?

A. To make a suggestion.

B. To introduce a celebrity.

C. To show respect to an educator.

D. To interpret the influence of education.

6. What does the author think of her job as a teacher ?

A. Enjoyable. B. Intolerant. C. Incompetent. D. Patient.

7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?

A. A reunion. B. A rock star. C. A surprise. D. A great teacher.

Few sick people consider the quality of the food when choosing a hospital. Even in America, a

country where private hospitals have long provided individual rooms with such comforts as personal

cable television, patients are often still fed institutional food. “Mystery meat” and processed-cheese

slices are common; everything gets cooked in a microwave.

More hospitals are starting to feed their patients better food. Intermountain, a non-profit group

based in Utah that runs 32 hospitals across the Mountain West, has since 2019 served freshly made

meals to patients. Chefs in proper kitchens now source local ingredients to serve in cafeterias. Doctors

are consulted to meet patients’ dietary needs. Christopher Delissio, the head chef at Intermountain,

describes creating a meal for a Mexican child who was being treated for cancer. “He would not eat,”

Mr Delissio recalls, and that was making it harder for him to recover from chemotherapy. “I was able

to go up on the floor and speak to this boy’s parents and him and kind of figure out what he wanted,”
