Around two weeks later，he called Jia.He asked for her address(地址)so that he could send her a gift to thank her for her help. Jia refused to accept the gift at first, but Sun called her many times.

Smoke from nearby wildfire caused some matches to be canceled. *A Carbon­Neutral(碳中和的) Sports Stadium(体育场) ⑦Some people are trying to do something about the problem. ⑧The Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle is new.
