How did the Chinese view their country’s place in the world

Last week, Phoenix TV, the largest private-held television company in China,

broadcast my forty-minute lecture (styled similarly to a TED talk) on China’s

public health challenges (the video is available here). In the lecture, I

contended that China’s international ascendance is being crippled by its

tremendous public health problems, ranging from environmental health

degradation to greater prevalence of non-communicable diseases and food

safety issues. What was missing from the talk is how the Chinese people

themselves view these challenges (the lecture was recorded in late

September). Fortunately, a report released from the Pew Research Center on

October 6 filled the void with a snapshot of how domestic challenges are

viewed by the Chinese public.

Hope This Works:)

Full Question:

Question: How did the Chinese view their country's place in the world?

A. They named it the "Middle Kingdom," indicating that it was the center of the world. Correct!

B. They revered it as the "Ancient World," placing its creation before all other empires.

C. They thought there were no other countries outside of China.

D. They believed the land had magical powers, so they were superstitious.

Answer:

The correct answer is A) They viewed their country as the <em>Middle Kingdom</em> which meant it was the centre of the world.

Explanation:

<em>Mandarin Zhongguo</em> is the Chinese name for China. It means <em>Middle Kingdom</em> or <em>Middle Country. </em>

As far back as 1000 BC the Chou people, <u>unaware of high civilisations</u> in the West, believed their empire occupied the middle of the earth, surrounded by barbarians.

This kind of thinking is usually referred to as ethnocentrism: the belief that one's country is the centre of the world

Historically speaking, this way of thinking is not extremely unpopular.

Cheers!
