24、Is there a Chinese soccer team at the Qatar 2022 World Cup? No. But you can’t miss Chinese elements (元素) in and around the stadiums in this desert country.

You can take a break in a “mobile hotel” built by Chinese workers, drink water from ponds dug by Chinese,charge your mobile phone with electricity produced at the photovoltaic (光电池的) power stations built by Chinese companies, and take a Chinese green bus to move between hotels and stadiums.

Did we forget something? Yes, some stadiums are built by Chinese companies, and even the gifts you can buy there are made in China, too. That’s how China has taken part in this World Cup, and may do so in the following ones as well: by providing products and services to the sportsmen and fans, and amazing the world with its technology and green products.

While “Made in China” has left its stamp on earlier soccer World Cups and other sports competitions, what makes the Qatar World Cup special is the kind of technology China is providing. For example, the Stadium 974, built by Chinese companies, is the first “green stadium” that can be moved. It can recycle rainwater for future use and turn the waste collected from the stadium into fertilizer (肥料). Besides,China has built an 800 MW photovoltaic station that turns the large amount of sunshine in the Middle East into electricity for the stadium.

The main reason that has made it possible for Chinese companies to perform well in the World Cup is that China has made great progress in green technology. While the whole world suffers from economic slowdown because of COVID-19 and other reasons, Chinese companies have largely continued to run well.

【1】How many kinds of Chinese products are mentioned in Paragraph 2?
