No, in fact, China does not use any alphabet. Chinese uses a system of thousands of symbols that represent ideas. (alphabets contain letters that only represent sounds).

Did Sumerian writing develop from pictographs to cuneiform to an alphabet?

Sumerian writing used cuneiform (Latin: "wedge-shaped") characters that had developed from pictographs. This system never developed into an alphabet while it was being used to write Sumerian, or most of the other languages that adopted cuneiform writing (e.g., Akkadian and Old Persian). However, a true alphabet of cuneiform symbols was developed by the people of Ugarit to write their language, which was related to Hebrew. (Strictly speaking, Ugaritic cuneiform employed an abjad, which is a term for an alphabetic system that lacks vowels.)
