China is country that has an ever growing economy, and that means that the demand for natural resources is also growing constantly. Because China doesn't have enough oil and natural gas, it imports huge quantities of it, mainly from Russia, in order to satisfy the demand.

C. Taiwan imports wood products because many of its forests are protected lands;

Taiwan is a relatively small island. It has a very large population though, which over the years meant that big portion of the forests were destroyed, and the wood reserves became very limited.
