2023-06-14T15:37:18+00:00

This paper explores the relationship between emotional states and English learning performance, aiming to provide insights into the mechanisms through which emotions influence language learning outcomes. The study examines the impact of emotional states on learning engagement and performance, language use and fluency, and investigates the strategies learners employ to regulate their emotions in English learning. The research design utilizes qualitative methods, including semi structured interviews, with a sample of students and teachers from Guilin Medical University. The findings reveal that emotional states significantly affect learning engagement and performance, with positive emotions enhancing motivation and active participation, while negative emotions impede engagement and hinder learning outcomes. Emotional states also influence language use and fluency, with positive emotions improving fluency and negative emotions hindering it. Learners employ various strategies, such as deep breathing exercises and seeking support, to regulate their emotions during English learning. Teacher support is identified as crucial in fostering emotional well-being and creating a supportive learning environment. Cultural and individual factors are found to shape learners' emotional responses in English learning. The results highlight the importance of addressing emotional states in English learning to enhance overall performance and wellbeing, and suggest the need for tailored interventions that consider cultural and individual factors. These findings have practical implications for educators and language practitioners, emphasizing the importance of promoting emotional well being and engagement in English learning contexts.

2023-06-03T08:06:56+00:00

English reading strategies and awareness of reading strategies are of great significance for English learners to master and possess high English reading abilities, but in reality, learners' ability to apply English reading strategies is still unsatisfactory. Moreover, this issue seems to be a common and urgent issue for all learners of English as a second language. This study taking a Chinese university (Hunan University of Science and Engineering, HUSE) as an example, using the Survey of Reading Strategies (SORS) to measure three broad categories of reading strategies, 527 respondents involved, through comparing data mean values of English majors with non-English majors and the composite mean value of these respondents, found that: (a) English major students have higher reading strategy awareness than non-English major students; (b) English major and non-English major students are at different levels in terms of reading strategy awareness and generally have a moderate level of reading strategies; (c) There is great room for improvement in university students’ reading strategy. Centering on how to make good use of the teaching resources of reading courses and how to use innovative ways and methods to enhance the awareness and ability of college students' reading strategies, this study puts forward four measures, namely, attaching importance to reading strategy education in reading course teaching, attaching importance to the leading role of reading course teachers in improving students' reading strategy level in curriculum teaching, attaching importance to students' main role, and strengthening students' reading strategy training.

2023-05-30T15:31:28+00:00

Anhua dark tea, a rapidly growing industry since 2006, has played a pivotal role in poverty alleviation and economic prosperity for Anhua County. However, recent years have witnessed a decline in sales volume, raising concerns among scholars due to changing shopping environments, business models, and consumer demographics. Drawing upon consumer behavior theory and the perceived value model, this study proposes hypotheses to explore the factors influencing consumers' purchase decisions regarding dark tea, focusing on perceived functional value, social value, income value, and cultural value. By collecting Likert-scale data and basic information, the study employs SPSS and Amos for data analysis, aiming to validate the proposed hypotheses. The results indicate that perceived functional value, social value, and cultural value have a significantly positive impact on consumers' intention to purchase Anhua dark tea. Building on the empirical findings, this study suggests strategies such as standardized production, product structure adjustments, diversified product offerings, and the promotion of value-added and culturally enriched dark tea products. Furthermore, the study emphasizes the importance of establishing a comprehensive black tea industry chain, integrating tea culture with local communities, and enhancing product value and reputation through the creation of "product IP," "geographical IP," and "cultural IP" for Anhua dark tea. By fostering consumer loyalty, Anhua dark tea can emerge as a representative of Hunan Province and a symbol of Chinese tea culture, carrying its therapeutic potential to a global audience.

Conceptional Reconstruction of High School English Teaching from the Perspective of Deep Learning

2023-05-11T04:24:09+00:00

As one of the important subjects in senior high school, English is not only a tool for communication, but also has rich cultural significance. High school English teaching should not only make students realize its instrumental significance, but also connect English with social life to guide students to establish correct values and achieve all-round development. The new college entrance examination reform puts more emphasis on competence education and the overall development of students. Meanwhile, the examination-oriented education in senior high school English teaching is still outstanding, and theory of "focus only on scores" is still prevalent. The theories of senior high school English teaching lag behind the development of the times and the call of the country. Deep learning emphasizes the acquisition of students’ English ability, attaches importance to the cultivation of students' values, and supports the comprehensive development of students, which is complementary to course education. It also has enlightening significance for the reform of English teaching in senior high schools. The paper focuses upon the conceptional reconstruction of senior high school English teaching through the perspective of deep learning theory, and discusses the positive impact of deep learning on the improvement of senior high school students’ English learning initiative, the accumulation of humanistic quality and the formation of values.

Special Vocabulary Learning Difficulties for EFL Students with Chinese Backgrounds

2023-05-01T13:46:48+00:00

This paper discussed three important factors related to the special difficulties of EFL learners: coursebooks, language distance, and teachers. EFL students' vocabulary input sources lack real context and socio-cultural context of target language. At this point, efforts cannot be focused on creating a real context for them, which is unrealistic, but to find special methods based on the special difficulties of EFL. For EFL learners, coursebooks, as one of the numerous learning resources, have become the most important way for them to input language. This should be the starting point for finding EFL learners' difficulties and solving them. In addition, the large language distance between Chinese and English causes students to encounter certain difficulties in learning the target language. For the issue of contrasting the differences between NEST and non-NEST, which has been extensively studied, this paper proposed that the focus of researchers should be on providing effective vocabulary learning strategies for EFL students, rather than contrasting the two of them. According to the "Learning Burden of a Word " proposed by Nation, this paper lastly stated the strengths and weaknesses of EFL coursebooks. After analysis, the strengths of the textbook are that most textbooks provide pronunciation, all textbooks provide written form, but provide contextual meaning. The primary stage textbooks provide explanations of grammatical functions. The main weaknesses are the lack of explanation modules for word parts, related means, concepts and references, settlements and constraints on use.

Reflections on Realization Paths of Curriculum Ideology and Politics in Senior High School English

2023-04-25T15:13:29+00:00

Since the introduction of the concept of "Curriculum Ideology and Politics" in comprehensive education reform, senior high schools have actively embraced its implementation throughout the entire education process. However, due to the pressures of exam-oriented education, systematic integration into actual frontline teaching work has been challenging, with various factors hindering its development. These include difficulties in exploring ideological and political elements within textbooks, a lack of vitality in traditional teaching models, and outdated educational mechanisms. Considering that teachers play a crucial role as educational leaders, textbooks serve as the primary tools for teachers' educational activities, and the education mechanism provides the institutional framework for teaching, these three interconnected components collectively shape the education and teaching process. Therefore, this study aims to explore the most suitable teaching mode for integrating foreign language ideological and political instruction into the curriculum through three paths: upgrading the teaching model, updating textbook content, and innovating the educational mechanism. To achieve this, the study will employ textbook analysis as a methodology and provide suggestions to textbook compilers on effectively integrating "Curriculum Ideology and Politics" into senior high school English teaching. These efforts aim to enhance the vitality of the English subject.

A Study on the Creative Approach of Luo Zhenyu's Oracle Bone Calligraphy

2023-04-23T16:40:42+00:00

In the history of Chinese culture, the oracle bone script, along with the Dunhuang documents, the Han jian of the Western region, and the Great Treasury of the Cabinet, are known as the four major discoveries of the twentieth century. The oracle bone script has a history of more than 3,000 years. In the field of philology and archaeology, its appearance has brought original materials for the examination of the origin of Chinese characters; in the field of art, its appearance is a great asset for the study of oracle bone script calligraphy. From the dimension of the study of the history of calligraphy, the oracle bone script already possesses the three basic elements of calligraphy: the brush, the knotted character, and the chapter, and is the earliest system of writing with a more mature system and aesthetic nature in the development of Chinese writing. From the perspective of the pen, the oracle bone script was carved with a knife on hard turtle shells or animal bones, so the lines of the script are mainly straight lines of uniform thickness, showing a slightly thicker middle and slightly thinner ends, showing the aesthetic characteristics of thinness and solidity, uprightness and sharpness, giving people a strong three-dimensional sense and visual impact. As a script, oracle bones have both their linguistic communication and their calligraphic artistry.We examine oracle bone calligraphy in terms of writing instruments, brushwork, and chapter forms. The purpose of this paper is to identify problems and analyze them in a step-by-step manner by using a logical tree model of deduction through writing practice and documentary evidence to explore the feasibility of oracle bone calligraphy from three aspects: writing materials, brush structure, and composition form

Status and Countermeasures of Art Education in Primary and Secondary Schools in Ethnic Minority Areas

2023-04-22T08:50:05+00:00

Fine art is a crucial discipline within the field of aesthetics, and fine art education serves as a significant component of aesthetic education. It holds great importance in providing a comprehensive education and fostering the holistic development and well-being of primary and secondary school students. The deficiency in fine art education within primary and secondary schools located in ethnic minority areas necessitates that teachers acknowledge these gaps, analyze their underlying causes, and explore effective measures to promote its development. Revitalizing fine art education is both the mission and responsibility of schools and teachers, as well as a shared aspiration of all sectors of society. In order to achieve this, teachers must enhance their ideological awareness, innovate institutional mechanisms, foster integration and collaboration, and prioritize and strengthen fine art education. Furthermore, it is essential to identify gaps, address deficiencies, increase investment in education, and expand access to high-quality resources. Leveraging the cultural characteristics of ethnic minorities, schools should develop curriculum that is tailored to their specific needs. Additionally, efforts should be made to enrich the teaching force and elevate teaching standards, including forging partnerships with local universities to enhance the professionalism of fine art teachers and strengthen the collective capacity.
This study focuses on the current state of fine art education in primary and secondary schools within the Enshi Grand Canyon Scenic Area Administration in Enshi City, Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, Hubei Province. By utilizing interviews and documentary analysis, the author examines and dissects a primary and secondary school located in a remote town. The aim is to reflect upon and analyze the existing conditions and challenges of fine art education in primary and secondary schools within ethnic minority areas, explore novel ideas in fine art education, and propose measures for improvement and advancement.

On Chinese Children’s Acquisition of Motion Events

2023-04-18T01:59:23+00:00

The motion events expressions in Chinese have been a controversial topic and few research on them from the developmental perspective. Therefore, based on the long-term tracking corpus of two Mandarin children SWK and WMX from their 13 months to 48 months, this paper studies the lexicalization of Chinese children’s motion events in the process of language acquisition to reveal the unique features in Chinese motion event expressions. Research revealed that at age 3, Chinese children began to express motion events primarily using the serial verb structure, that is, a manner verb + path verb pattern and children’s motion event expressions grew progressively more extensive with age. Chinese children follow the satellite-framed language pattern early on. The authentic language use in corpora and the features found based on them prove that Chinese is a satellite-framed language. The present study offers a new type of evidence for the typological properties of the language from the developmental perspective and could shed fresh insight on a thorny issue regarding the classification of Mandarin Chinese in motion events.

2023-04-17T09:51:22+00:00

The Yangtze River Delta region, represented by Shanghai, Zhejiang and Jiangsu, has grown as one of the most developed regions in China based on the acceptance of international industrial transfer. However, along with the rising factor costs, increasing environmental pressure and resource constraints, it has become a general trend to upgrade industrial structure, give priority to intensive, high technology and high value-added industries, some labor-intensive and capital-intensive industries is moved to other regions in the country. As the southern gate of Shandong Province, Linyi City is close to the Yangtze River Delta, with a common history, and complementary resources, and is an important hub connecting the north and south economies. It should take full advantage of its location, natural resources and labor resources to actively undertake the industrial transfer of the Yangtze River Delta and participate in the regional economic cooperation and development of the Yangtze River Delta. The difference in the development level between the transferring and taking over places is a prerequisite for industrial transfer, which can be measured by the industrial gradient coefficient, which shows the different levels of industrial gradients to determine the transferring industries in the Yangtze River Delta region; in addition, the relative industrial gradient coefficient is introduced to determine the industries Linyi can take over.

San Zi Jing, with short form, pleasing rhythm and profound significance, is a well-known and representative classic among ancient enlightenment children’s books in traditional Chinese society. The core of Translation as Adaptation and Selection is the translator’s adaptation to the translational eco-environment of the original text and the translator’s selection of the translational eco-environment of the translated text. This paper analyzes three translators’ different adaptations and selections by comparing three chosen English translated texts of San Zi Jing from the perspective of linguistic dimension, namely phonology, vocabulary and syntactical structure. It helps to have a better understanding for production of the three different versions for readers and arouses the attention on the ideational level of language in the process of Chinese classics translation.

Factors Affecting the Effectiveness of Internal Control in Chinese SMEs

2023-04-12T08:29:57+00:00

SMEs represent economic vitality and can reflect the degree of development of a country's economy; the more developed the economy, the greater the number of SMEs. However, the survival environment of SMEs is complicated, resulting in short life cycle and weak risk resistance. Fortunately, China's SME business environment is getting better and better. At this time, if SMEs want to survive in the competition and develop in the survival, they just need to improve their own business management and risk prevention ability. And internal control is one of the important management tools and functions to enhance market competitiveness.
Internal control for SMEs is equivalent to capillaries for people. Any organ or part of a human being is covered with capillaries, and internal control is also ubiquitous throughout the entire life cycle of SMEs, covering and soaking in all aspects, whether at the strategic level, or at the business level; at the financial level or at the management level; at the start-up stage, or at the growth, maturity and transformation stages; at the governance level, or at the management and business levels; at the sales department, or at the production department; all have internal control. Therefore, internal control in SMEs is no longer a multiple choice question of whether to design and implement, but a must-answer question of how to reasonably design and effectively implement.
High quality internal control is not something that can be achieved overnight, nor is it something that is set in stone. In other words, the design and implementation of internal control is a dynamic process of change. The demand and supply factors for internal controls in economic activities and business management are not static, but are constantly changing, and these changes, in turn, often require changes in internal controls. Moreover, internal controls should not be passively accepted, but actively created according to the needs. The question discussed in this study is: What are the practical difficulties in establishing an effective internal control system in SMEs? Based on Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Theory and Demand and Supply Theory, and using the interview method, this study interviewed managers of 32 SMEs in China from their business objectives to the five elements of internal control, using the SPADER (Situation, Problem, Alternative, Decision, Executive, Review.) and PDCA (Plan, Do, Check and Act) cycles in operations management and quality management as research ideas. And found that currently all Chinese SME owners have recognized the necessity and importance of internal control to varying degrees, but firstly, they do not know how to do it, secondly, there is not sufficient urgency, and thirdly, it is difficult to realize systematically, in addition, due to financial and capacity constraints, they are not in a condition to give the corresponding resource allocation and investment.

A study on the Necessity and Feasibility of Sports Clubs at Hubei Enshi College College

2023-04-11T03:45:28+00:00

In recent years, the Chinese government has issued a series of documents, including the National Guideline for Teaching Physical Education Courses in Ordinary Higher Education Schools, the Basic Standards for Physical Education Work in Higher Education Schools, and the Opinions of the General Office of the State Council on Strengthening School Physical Education for the Overall Development of Students' Physical and Mental Health. In response to these documents, colleges and universities in China have been actively promoting sports reform initiatives. This study uses literature review, Delphi method, and mathematical statistics to investigate the current situation of sports development on the campus of Hubei Enshi College, and to analyze the necessity and feasibility of sports clubbased teaching. Specifically, the study focuses on the development of sports clubs at Hubei Enshi College, and examines the challenges and opportunities for reform. The study finds that the development of sports clubs at Hubei Enshi College lacks an efficient and complete organizational and management framework, and that the current teaching situation faces the dilemma of "one size fits all". In addition, the study identifies the lack of integration of teaching resources between the first and second classes, and the lack of branding effect of campus sports culture. The study concludes by providing feasible suggestions for the optimal development of sports clubs at Hubei Enshi College, in line with the university's educational philosophy of "establishing moral education, teaching students according to their
abilities, and applying learning to practice".

Wushu, also known as Chinese martial arts, is a traditional sport and cultural treasure of China that has a history of thousands of years. In China, Wushu is widely practiced and has been integrated into the national physical education curriculum, with Wushu being taught in schools and training centers across the country. This study adopts research methods such as survey, literature review, and statistics to investigate and analyze the injuries that occur in Wushu teaching at Beichen Children's Art School in Hohhot,China, with the aim of exploring the causes and preventive measures of these injuries and reducing their occurrence in Wushu teaching. The integrated approach of combining internal and external training, as well as the unity of form and spirit, is a major feature of Wushu practice. "Internal" refers to the mental and breath-related activities of the heart, mind, intention, and qi. "External" refers to the external physical activities of the hands, eyes, body, and steps. Many martial arts styles and schools emphasize the integrated approach of internal and external training and the unity of form and spirit. Wushu practice not only has a high exercise value but also has rich content and diverse forms. Different boxing and equipment have different action results, technical requirements, styles, and exercise volumes. It can be carried out without limitation by age, gender, time, season, venue, or equipment. People can choose appropriate projects for exercise according to their needs and conditions, which provides convenient conditions for carrying out mass sports activities. Therefore, Wushu practice has a wide range of adaptability.

Study on the Capacity Assessment and Optimization Path of Social Organizations in Assisting Rural Revitalization

2023-03-21T09:47:14+00:00

Participation in rural revitalization is a crucial responsibility for social organizations. It not only demonstrates their commitment to serving the country, society, the public, and the industry but is also a vital avenue for achieving high-quality development. To assess the ability of social organizations to contribute to rural revitalization, we constructed an evaluation index system. We employed the TOPSIS evaluation and barrier degree model to evaluate the ability of Chinese social organizations, private non-enterprises, and foundations to participate in rural revitalization in our research area. Our results indicate that the overall ability of social organizations to participate in rural revitalization is at a medium-low level, and three major obstacles exist in the areas of organizational construction, basic guarantee, and project participation. Therefore, we should focus on improving the organizational construction capacity by strengthening the "internal strength of the organization" and cultivate the basic guarantee capacity by paying attention to "own finance." We should also enhance the participation capacity of rural revitalization projects by setting "participation targets" and relying on the "internal strength of the organization." We propose optimization paths from various perspectives, including practicing "internal strength of the organization" and actively improving the capacity of organization construction, paying attention to "own finance" and continuously cultivating the capacity of basic guarantee, focusing on "participation targets" and effectively strengthening the capacity of participation in rural revitalization projects, relying on "digital empowerment" and enhancing the professional service capacity of social organizations, integrating "rural demands" and improving the policy coordination capacity of social organizations.
