Data from the World Trade Organization showed that global trade in sporting goods has nearly tripled (三倍) in almost 30 years, and China has become the world’s top exporter of sporting goods. For example, in Jinping county of southwest China’s Guizhou Province, a global production centre for badminton shuttlecocks, more than 100,000 shuttlecocks are sold worldwide a day.
In the first three months of this year, the country’s exports of roller skates and skateboards increased by 30.85 percent and 50.21 percent year-on-year, respectively. The inclusion of skateboarding as an Olympic sport has further fueled demand, particularly in countries like Russia and Japan.
To boost the pace of “going global,” Chinese sporting goods companies need to rely on greener sporting goods with higher technological content, said Bao Mingxiao, director of the China Sports Policy Research Institute at Beijing Sport University. For example, Dingqi Sports Goods Co., Ltd. specializes in the production of ball bladders (内胆) , including those used in the production of footballs, volleyballs, basketballs and rugby balls. 70 percent of its products are exported overseas. For the Paris Olympics, the company exported products made from 70 percent bio-based materials.
Wen Jia, deputy general secretary of the China Sporting Goods Federation, said fierce competition in the domestic market makes enterprises and merchants provide customized products and services to meet customers’ demands. Chinese enterprises are not just exporting sporting goods, but also technology, services, and brands.
Yang Lei, general manager of the foreign trade department at Hebei Jadeqi Sports Goods Co Ltd. said “Our overseas strategy aligns with the Belt and Road Initiative. Both aim to offer services and solutions.”
4.Why are so many figures listed in the passage
A. To publicize the Belt and Road Initiative. B. To prove the growth of China’s economy.
C. To praise the leadership of the government. D. To show the success in exporting sporting goods.
5.Why is skateboarding popular
A. Skateboards are easy to carry. B. Young people prefer the sport.
C. It is included in the Olympic sports. D. Russians and Japanese pushed it forward.
6.Which factor is not mentioned in promoting products
A. Technology. B. Service. C. Salesmen. D. Customization.
7.What do the underlined words “align with” in the last paragraph mean
A. Consist with. B. Compare with. C. End with. D. Compete with.

Whales (巨头鲸) washed up on a beach in Orkney, Scotland. It was the largest mass stranding (搁浅) of whales in Scotland for decades. Scientists don’t know exactly why whales beach themselves. One theory is that climate change is driving whales’ food closer to the shoreline, where they then get stuck as the tide goes out. If a single animal is found, it is usually because it is sick or has been injured.
In the Orkney stranding, 12 of the whales were still alive when they became beached. When this happens, some organizations assess whether a whale can be safely refloated. Professionals and members of the community often come together, cover the animal in wet sheets and pour buckets of water over it until the animal drifts back out to the ocean, though it’s not always a happy ending.
For those that don’t survive, a post-mortem examination (尸检) is often carried out. Dr Brownlow of the Scottish Marine Animal Stranding Scheme told the BBC that these can reveal a lot about the whale’s life and the reasons why it was beached. In 2024, a very rare species of whale turned up on a beach in New Zealand -a spade-toothed whale. While this is sad, the body was analyzed in order to help researchers acquire new information about the species. “From a scientific and conservation point of view, this is huge”, Gabe Davies, a Department of Conservation official, said.
Some beached whales who don’t survive have their skeletons sent to museums, while many others are returned to the water. This ensures the oceanic environment benefits because whale bodies give off many nutrients. “When they fall and die and sink to the bottom of the ocean, they form these little nutrient-rich islands that can support a huge diversity of life”, says Dr Brownlow.
The more research that can be done, the better. For now, we can only do what we can to keep our oceans clean and safe.
8.What was surprising about the Orkney whale stranding
A. The types of the beached whales. B. The value of the beached whales.
C. The habitats the beached whales. D. The number of the beached whales.
9.What do we know about the beached whales
A. Some of them can be rescued. B. They prefer the food on the beach.
C. Professionals can treat them alone. D. Climate change causes them to rest on the shore.
10.What happened to the body of a spade-toothed whale
A. It was covered by wet sheets. B. It was carried to museums nearby.
C. It contributed much to the research. D. It was instantly thrown back into the ocean.
11.Why can whales be good for other ocean life
A. They both live in harmony. B. Nutrients after their death are valuable.
C. The island they hide on are full of food. D. Other sea living things feed on their bodies.
D
Sanding on the shore of a lake, I can’t help but marvel at the tens or hundreds of thousands of small rocks that surround my boots. They were all created from hard surfaces, their edges softening over time.
And I wonder, can we learn from a pile of rocks
Even the tallest mountains have worn down; none are as tall as they were 1,000 years ago. And much like a rock. I’ve found my attitude has softened and my desire to better understand others has expanded with each trip around the sun.
Once I too was a sharp rock covered in pointy edges. Today, after decades of the waters of life coursing over me, my edges are softer and more understanding. I’m less likely to judge and more interested in learning how we can exist together.
But I’m not a rock. I’m a human-being filled with all the drama built into my DNA.
Two years ago, while traveling in the Pacific Northwest, I watched a restaurant owner ask a guy to leave for not falling in line with the rules. Not forceful and net rude. On the door read a sign: “Please wear a mask before entering our restaurant. We don’t like it either, but let’s all do what we can.” But the guy tried to argue about the note.
I sat watching. understanding both sides. I’ve been this guy before, using my youthful edges to chip away at the world. What I lost, however, was the ability to grow by looking through others’ eyes, and thus the possibility of finding content and success.
You can fit more rounded rocks in a jar than those with sharp edges. The former look for ways to adjust and make room for others; the latter never give an inch to accommodate others. Time, like the waters rolling against once sharp stones, changes us by washing away our resistance to seeing the world from another’s point of view.
I placed a rounded stone into my pocket. Mother Nature is holding class again.
12.What does the author compare the rocks to
A. People with varied personalities. B. DNA unique to each person.
C. Challenges that we come across. D. Our abilities that grows with time.
13.What caused the argument in the restaurant
A. Lack of clarity in the sign. B. The owner’s inappropriate attitude.
C. Demanding restaurant requests. D. The guy’s failing to obey the rules.
14.Which best describes the author’s attitude toward the world when he was young
A. Respectful. B. Aggressive. C. Ambiguous. D. Tolerant.
15.What does the author try to convey through this text
A. We should adjust ourselves to new conditions. B. Be brave when in the face of difficulties in life.
C. It’s necessary to obey the rules in public spaces. D. Being open and understanding brings satisfaction.

Tablescapes (桌面景观) are creatively designed table arrangements or decorations for the center of a table, which show or highlight a specific object or collection. Usually, it’s dinner tables that are transformed into tablescapes. 16
Tableseaping allows people to express their creativity by adding a personal touch. This is often achieved through the use of valuable collections or specialized themes. 17 Themes can be based upon a particular event, season, hobby, or collection. Finding a suitable theme for tablescape displays depends on personal preference as well as the style of its surroundings.
18 Each item within a tablescape relates to other elements around it. While the objects in tablescapes do not necessarily have to match perfectly, they should stay in harmony with each other or make each other more attractive.
When it comes to organizing the selected objects for tablescapes, the easiest method is to think in terms of levels. 19 The other relatively unimportant ones include the spaces both above and below the table. Including similar or repeated items in all of these levels will help pull everything together.
When the appropriate tablescape design is carried out, the surrounding area should fit in. The highlighted table arrangement should stand out in a pleasing manner rather than looking like a mess. As everyone’s view can be different, not all tablescapes will hold the same appeal. 20 It’ll create a comfortable appearance regardless of someone else’s personal taste.
A. But items like bookshelves can also make it.
B. The most important level is the tabletop itself.
C. Tablescapes normally have three different levels.
D. That’s why balance and harmony are so important.
E. Once a theme is chosen, collect proper related items.
F. Themes are especially important when designing tablescapes.
G. However, maintaining a balance within the tablescape theme is necessary.
