[单项选择]It will be good news if China overtakes the US as the world’s top consumer market. But when it comes to China passing the US as the world’s second-largest luxury market, there are mixed reactions.
The latest statistics indicate that world-famous luxury brands have seen a steady growth in sales in the Chinese market, while other parts of the world have suffered a major slump. In the first seven months of this year, BMW has seen a 19 percent plunge in its worldwide sales, but a 26 percent increase in China. China has become the world’s second biggest consumer of luxury goods, and will likely be No. 1 in 2015.

He stated that luxury drives the economy and generates urbanization, and at the same time, serves as one of the inherent limits behind the haunting economic crisis cycles.

A. China is the world’s top consumer market.
B. The US is the world’s top consumer market.
C. The US is the world’s top luxury market.
D. China is the world’s second-largest luxury market.

The Good News
Here’s the good news: our air is cleaner, our lakes are purer, our forests are healthier, endangered species are recovering, toxic emissions are down, and acid rain has diminished dramatically. And yet, if you’ve looked at a newspaper or watched the evening news lately, you might think our environment is under siege (围攻). Media Coverage of the environment is heavy on doomsday, but the truth is not at all bleak: nearly all environmental trends in the United States are positive and have been for years—if not decades.
