【答案解析】China is one of the birthplaces of the world civilization, enjoying a history of five thousand years. It has produced many outstanding thinkers in Chinese ancient thought history and left a rich intellectual heritage for both the Chinese people and the entire human race. The ideological achievements of these thinkers were uniquely established and were continuously interpreted and developed. Today, many of these thoughts are as relevant as ever and still endure vitality for China and the rest of the world. For example, the ideal of "benevolence" and the concept of "harmony" advocated by Confucius, the founder of the Confucianism, have been admired highly by contemporary China as well as other Asian countries.
