答案 B (2015·陕西省西安地区八校联考三)
After achieving a 9 percent GDP growth, hosting a successful Olympic Games and carrying out its first space walk, you'd think China would be happy. Yet China is not pleased. That, at least, is the opinion of a new book written by a group of Chinese authors.
China Is Not Happy was released in March. It is a followup to the 1996 work China Can Say No, a bestseller that complained about the influence of the West, and the US in particular, on China. Thirteen years later, the authors of China Is Not Happy list their dissatisfaction with_how_China_is_being_treated_in_the_world_today. They argue that China needs to use its growing power and economic resources to build its own position of outstanding performances. “From looking at the history of human civilization, we are most qualified to lead this world. Westerners should be second,” the book says.
The authors single out the US for special scorn(轻蔑), and say their book's message has been helped by the economic crisis. “This economic problem has shown the Chinese people that America does have problems, and that what we've been saying is right,” said Wang Xiaodong, one of the authors in an interview with The Wall Street Journal.
Since released on March 13, the book has become a bestseller in many Chinese bookstores. The publisher has printed 270,000 copies, and says sales are far better than expected.
