过去的2009年，虽处在国际金融危机的影响下，中国经济却保持了8.7% 左右的增速。西方学者说，以中国为代表的发展中国家正在以独特的方式在经济、政治、文化等各个领域改变着世界。这表明(   )  A．世界政治经济格局逐步向多极化演进  B．中国已经成为发达国家  C．发展经济是维护世界和平的重要基础  D．国际政治经济秩序发生了根本性变化  　　Foxes and farmers have never got on well. These small doglike animals have long been scolded for killing farm animals. They are officially regarded as harmful and farmers try to keep their numbers down by shooting or poisoning them. 　　Farmers can also call on the services of their local hunt to control the fox population. Hunters hunt a fox across the countryside, with a group of specially trained dogs, followed by men and women riding horses. When the dogs finally catch the fox they kill it or a hunter shoots it. 　　People who take part in hunting think of it as a sport; they wear a special uniform of red coats and white trousers, and follow strict rules of behavior. But owning a horse and hunting regularly is expensive, so most hunters are wealthy. 　　It is estimated that up to 100000 people watch or take part in fox hunting. But over the last couple of decades the number of people who object to fox hunting, because they think it is cruel, has risen sharply. Nowadays it is rare for a hunt to pass off without some kind of confrontation（冲突）between hunters and hunt saboteurs（阻拦者）.Sometimes these incidents lead to violence, but mostly saboteurs interfere with the hunt by misleading riders and disturbing the trail of the fox's smell, which the dogs follow. 　　Noisy confrontations between hunters and saboteurs become so common that they are almost as much a part of hunting as the hunting of foxes itself. But this year supporters of fox hunting face a much bigger threat to their sport. A Labor Party Member of the Parliament, Mike Foster, is trying to get Parliament to pass a new law which will make the hunting of wild animals with dogs illegal（非法的）.If the law is passed, wild animals like foxes will be protected under the ban in Britain.
