China's first civilization developed on the North China Plain.
China's first civilization developed on the North China Plain. To arrive at this answer, you can cross-reference historical knowledge about the location of ancient Chinese civilizations with the given options. The Chang River (also known as the Yangtze River) and the Plateau of Tibet were important regions in Chinese history, but they were not the locations of the first Chinese civilization. The Gobi Desert is known for being a harsh and arid region, which is not conducive to early settlement. However, the North China Plain, characterized by fertile soil and a temperate climate, was a favorable environment for the development of agriculture and civilization. Therefore, the correct response is "on the North China Plain."
