Taboos in English——Speaking Countries

Taboos more or less exist in every matter of life, and set up a neither too big, nor too small barrier for the communicative activities , especially for intercultural communication. The paper gives an elementary introduction to the taboos in English —speaking countries, in order to help Chinese people break through the cultural barrier, clear up misunderstanding, acquire a better understanding with each other, and communicate without a hitch. The author examines these taboos from various angles as follow: i...

Pseudo—particle simulation of multi—scale heterogeneity in fluidization

Fluidization is a process of wide application,but its dynamic behavior is not well understood because of its multi-scale heterogeneity and regime multiplicity which are difficult to simulate in traditional numerical methods.By discretizing the fluid phase into a large number of interactive simple particles,which can incorporate many-body moving boundaries easily,pseudo-particle modeling(PPM) has re-produced reasonable radial and axial heterogeneity on macro-scale as well as solids clustering and fluid flows on meso-and micro-scales.The simulation suggestes a consistent evolution of the complexity across different scales with itself scrving as an ideal exploring tool.     

Longling-Lancang fault zone in southwest Yunnan, China——A newly-generated rupture zone in Continental crust

The Longling-Lancang fault zone, consisting of sets of en echelon or clustered faults, is a newly-generated rupture zone. It is characterized by the distribution of active faults, earthquake faults and earthquakes in zones. Formed in the Early-Middle Pleistocene, still active in the late, it moves dextrally and extensionally. It tends to cut off the locked segments and discontinuous segments at first, then pervades totally along the zone, accompanied by strong earthquakes.     

An Analysis to Linda——A Woman Struggling in Life

Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman gives prominent presentation to the male characters but keeps the female characters almost unnoticed.This paper will focus on Linda Lowman,the only woman on stage much of the time,analyze Linda as a woman struggling in life,so as to disclose the injustice of the society and the emptiness of the American Dream in the post-war American society.     

Cultural Effects in Translation——From A Text Linguistic Approach

This paper discusses the cultural effect in translation by exploring the text linguistic approach; especially it 's seven standards. This includes an analysis of the different texts of the language and culture. There is a closet link between these standards and the cultural effect in translation. The paper also offers some simple examples to illusrate some standards of them. In addition, the paper is trying to emphasis the importance between the translation theories and the cultural effect in the process of translation.

A Survey of Listening——Obstacles in College English Teaching

Listening is an essential component of communication in human life. It's also a basic skill in English learning. But for most college students, among listening, speaking, reading and writing skills, listening is the most difficult one. This paper was designed to survey the English listening obstacles in college and focuses on the categories of the listening obstacles in English teaching in college. From the paper, the readers can have a general idea about English listening obstacles and get some useful advices from the participants.     

landscape Changes in Wenchuan—A Mountainous County in Sichuan, China

Based on the collection of land use maps of three repre sentative years (1972, 1986 and 1995) with a scale of 1 = 100 000, which were derived from interpreted aerial photographs and field surveys, landscape pattern were studied in Wenchuan County of Aba Prefecture, northwest of Sichuan Province, China, Six land use categories were classified according to the actuality of the study area and digitized by manual with the assistance of Geographic Information System (GIS). Landscape spatial and temporal changes were analyzed quanti ficationally by a series of structure, shape, pattern indices, which indicated that grassland dominates in number of patch while both grassland and shrub-land dominate in total area of patch over time. During the last 23 years, the fractal dimension of grassland and shrub-land were decreased while the other types were increased. Highest dominance and fragmentation and lowest diversity characterized the landscape of 1972. In 1986, the landscape pattern had the highest diversity and lowest dominance and fragmentation, which is contrary to the pattern in 1972, Slight change of diversity, dominance and fragmentation has been displayed from 1986 to 1995.

Numerical Method for Heat and Mass Transfer in Air Washer——3.Two-phase Flow in Eliminator

Numerical simulation method is applied in the study oftwo - phase flow dynamics in the eliminator of air wash-er. The carrier phase (air) is treated in Eulerian frame,the water droplets are tracked in the Lagrangian frame.A three - dimensional unsteady two - phase flow model isdeveloped. With the help of FLUENT software, air-stream velocity field and water droplets trajectories havebeen illustrated when their mixture passing through tra-ditional folded eliminator. The result of the simulationcan be used to investigate the mechanism of turbulent
