“Made in China” is having its moment now—and it's a fashionable one.
The story of Chinese fashion began in 2011 when Feiyue and Huili, both Chinese sports shoe brands(品牌), suddenly got international attention. Their products were seen all over the world. Chinese sportswear brand Li Ning was at the New York Fashion Week in September, 2018. They showed their new designs—sweaters and jackets with Chinese characters.
Shaun Rein, managing director of China Market Research Group, said that the latest Chinese brands are no longer promoting themselves on the basis of their cheapness. He told CNN, “They are impressive and ambitious and can go head to head with foreign brands.”
Maybe it is because China's young people are now more confident about their own culture. They don't show immediate interest in western culture any more.
“Today's young people in China are crazy about Chinese cultural elements(元素)，” Jin Qu, the manager of a clothing shopping website, said at a cultural festival in 2018. “They like these elements printed on their clothes, even the brand picture of Laoganma in China, which was once seen as outside of fashion. But now young people are proud of these Chinese symbols.”
In fact, many stars in the west are now interested in Chinese cultural elements in fashion. Rihanna, a US singer, for example, wore a Chinese red dress to the 2015 Met Gala in New York. The dress was designed and made by Chinese designer Guo Pei.
“We have to move from making to creating，” Chinese American designer Aric Chen once told The New York Times. “We want to replace the words ‘Made in China’ with ‘Designed in China’．”
(　　)26.The new designs of Li Ning Company in September, 2018 were ________．
A．coats and scarves in Chinese red
B．sweaters and jackets with English words
C．coats and scarves with American symbols
D．sweaters and jackets with Chinese characters
(　　)27.The underlined word “They” in Paragraph 5 refers to ________．
A．today's young people in China
B．the workers in Jin Qu's shop
C．some famous stars in the west
D．directors of some Chinese companies
(　　)28.What can be the best title for the passage
A．Chinese Clothes Brands
B．Sports in China
C．Chinese Cultural Festival
D．Designed in China
(　　)29.The passage above may be taken from a(n)________．
A．newspaper B．guidebook C．novel D．ad
Ⅵ.阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题
Researchers say that men and women have different communication styles(风格). That's why they sometimes cannot communicate well with each other. Here are some differences between them.
Men's communication style is more direct. They usually take a direct way to solve a problem and suggest a solution(解决办法). Men often make decisions more quickly than women. They also like to make decisions by themselves. Women's communication style is to discuss problems and ask other people for their opinions. Women like to talk with other people before they make a decision.
The topics of conversation are also different between men and women. Women like to discuss personal topics and talk about their feelings. They can express what they think while talking about problems. It is important to women in the friendship. Men are less comfortable discussing their feelings. They like to talk about the latest news, business, and personal success. Men form friendships by doing activities together while women form friendships by sharing feelings.
These differences of communication styles cause problems in their relationships. What are the results First, women may think it is important to discuss how they feel about a problem. Men, however, like to come to a solution. Second, men often think that women are complaining(抱怨), because women are always talking about their feelings. Men offer a solution to a problem, and then want to talk about something else. Third, women often think that men don't want to discuss things. In fact, they just want to discuss different things.
As men and women learn more about their different communication styles, they can better understand each other.
