Narrator and Narrative Voice in “Soldier＇s Home”

＂Soldier＇s Home,＂ Hemingway employs a third person narrator which narrates the short story in a seemingly detached and indifferent narrative voice. However,further exploration of the narrator and narrative voice in the story demonstrates that,instead of being thoroughly detached,the narrator constantly penetrates into the protagonist＇s consciousness,merges with character＇s voice,and even betrays Hemingway＇s sympathies with his protagonist. This paper attempts to explore narrator and narrative voice used in this story which contribute a lot to the alienation theme of the story as well as the successful depiction and characterization of a young soldier who finds himself desperate,disillusioned and alienated after returning home from the First World.War.

非线性系统的高增益滑模输出跟踪

Extension strategy-tactics-planning (ESTP), based upon the science of Extenics, is established for the purpose of solving contradictory problems. In this paper, the fundamental thoughts, theories and methods of ESTP are introduced concisely. The highlights of ESTP are that the techniques, used in the case of tackling such problems as how to generate the ideas of strategy-tactics-planning, how to completely analyze the resources, how to exploit extension resources, how to transfer the incompatible into the compati-ble, and how to transfer the opposite into the co-existent, are developed in a formalized way. And regarding the practices of ESTP, the applications of ESTP in resource integration, project, market development, and the prevention and handling crises are presented.

An operator on ascent sequences

We solve two problems about ascent sequences: how to get the ascent sequence of the reflection of A with respect to its antidiagonal for a matrix A∈ Intn and its ascent sequences, and how to determine the ascent sequence of A+B for k×k matrices A∈ Intn and B∈ Intm. We give the other definition of ascent sequence and get M-sequence. For the first question, we define M-sequence of A and rewrite the ascent sequences as another form.We build the bijection between M-sequences and ascent sequences and prove that our bijection is well-defined. For the second question, we define an operation on M-sequences. On the basis of the operation and the bijections, we get the ascent sequences of the sum of two matrices.     

On the Iceberg Style of Ernest Hemingway

Comments on Hemingway’s style have seemed to agree on the simplicity and apparent naturalness of his prose, and its effect of profoundity.The principle of iceberg, which Hemingway adopts in his literary creation, was the main reason attracting readers and critics.The whole art of the principle is concision and profoundity, or saying what you mean in the fewest and clearest words.This essay mainly clarifies the connotation of the two parts of "iceberg"—the one eighth and the seven eighths; and the relations between them.It emphatically expounds how the writer uses the symbolism technique and how his language reaches a unique impact.In the last part of it, the author of the essay traces back to the key elements forming the principle and gives a pertinent conclusion on the style.
