Sam Russell is not your average baseball fan. He is a die-hard Boston Red Sox fan. He has a season ticket and he arranges his work schedule so he does not miss a game. Sam also attends games dressed in their uniform, and his car is red. He has even lost some friends by choosing to watch the Red Sox instead of going to their weddings. Is this healthy behavior?Although Russells case is extreme, being a sports fan can be healthy for you. According to a study at the University of Kansas in the USA, sports fans suffer from unhappiness and anxiety less than people who are not interested in sports. Sports fans also experience other effects from watching their team play. When their team wins a game, their own confidence and happiness increase, just like the athletes. Losing, on the other hand, always leads to some sense of disappointment.What about die-hard fans whose team always loses? The team spirit keeps those fans from losing hope. Knowing that other fans are probably feeling the same way also helps them.Besides, there is always the hope that their team will win the next game. Russell has lost some friends because of his love for baseball and although you may think that would make him unhappy, he has made many more new friends because of his team spirit.For Sam Russell, supporting the Red Sox is not just a hobby; it is a way of life and the secret to his happiness.54.

In other words, the company wants your smelly, old sneakers. Why would anyone want dirty, worn-out shoes? The material used to make most sneakers can be bent easily. Nike, in its “Reuse-a-Shoe” program, uses this soft, shock-absorbent material for creating playgrounds and high-performance athletic surfaces, which can help protect athletes from being injured. People are encouraged to drop off their unwanted shoes at one of the companys collection spots. The company provides local shops, community agencies(社区组织), and school groups with tools to promote the collection effort. These tools include posters, radio, and print advertisements. Any used shoes are welcomed as long as they do not have metal parts. After approximately five thousand pairs of shoes have been collected, Nike takes them to the companys recycling plant in Oregon. Since 1993, millions of pairs of shoes have been recycled. The company presently has more than 50 collection spots located throughout 35 states and similar collection programs in the United Kingdom, Australia, and Japan.After the shoes arrive in Oregon, they are sliced and separated into three sections: the top, the middle shoe, and the outer sole. These parts are broken up into tiny pellets(颗粒). The small pieces are then thoroughly cleaned and sent to partner companies to be made into athletic surfaces. Pellets made from the fabric or leather tops of the collected shoes are used to make padding(填充物) that goes directly under hardwood basketball floors. The middle of them is used to make basketball courts, tennis courts, and soft playground surfaces. The pellets made from the heavy rubber bottoms, or soles, of them are made into football and baseball fields, and running tracks. Each year Nike selects neighborhoods that could benefit from having new sports surfaces. So far, the company has helped build more than 170 sports surfaces in communities around the world. Because Nike reduced the amount of waste and provided communities with safe playgrounds and excellent sports surfaces, it has received many awards from the recycling community. The company eventually plans to recycle old sneakers into brand-new sneakers, but for now, they are pleased to partner with other companies who help to put all those old shoes to good use.57.

A. can make sports surfaces smoothB. can reduce the effect of a violent movementC. is used for playgrounds to absorb heat or noiseD. is used to protect playgrounds from being damaged58. The company sets up collection spots in order to _.A. store shoes for community agencies and schoolsB. separate the shoes according to size and conditionC. count the exact numbers of shoes that are collectedD. make it easier for people to donate their old shoes59.
