This paper will analyze the phenomenon of neglecting to cultivate college students' ability to tell Chinese stories well in college English teaching procedures, discuss the content of English teaching that promotes the spread of Chinese culture to the outside world, deeply interpret the teaching mode of "telling Chinese stories well", propose strategies and methods to cultivate students' ability to tell Chinese stories well in English teaching, so as to provide some references for the improvement of College English teaching mode.
Implication and Presentation of Verbs in Character Component “Horse” from “Gallop”
Authors: Xu Mopengfei , Ding Ding
Published: August 2022

From ancient times to medieval ages, Chinese vocabulary has experienced a process from “conceptual implication” to “conceptual presentation”, behind which are many details of evolution worth exploring. “马” (Horse) is an important ideographic component of Chinese characters. Many verbs with “马” as their components are closely related to horses at the beginning of their use. However, with the expansion of their use, these verbs begin to combine with other names, which changes the existing state of “horse”. This paper selects “驰” (gallop), a verb of “马” with both intransitive and transitive usages to restore the process of “implication-presentation” more concretely. Through the diachronic description and analysis of the state for the specific semantic “马” of “驰” from ancient times to the medieval ages, this paper not only confirms the law of “implication-presentation”, but also discovers the transitional “implicit or explicit” stage in the evolution process. Moreover, a related detailed analysis is made, which holds that this stage is an important link to show the specificity of different words’ evolution.
Prospects and Challenges of Bond in Bangladesh Capital Market: A Comparison with Asian Capital Markets
Authors:   Bangladesh Institute of Capital Market (BICM), Sultana Provaty Sagira
Published: August 2022

The bond market always plays a complementary role in allocating funds from surplus sectors to different deficit sectors. In Bangladesh, an efficient bond market can play a vital role in supplementing the banking system to meet the requirements of the corporate sector for long-term capital investment and asset creation while providing a steady source of finance in the event of equity market volatility. The study has explored the prospects and challenges of the bond market in Bangladesh using secondary data from abundant sources. The study has addressed that the amount of tradable government bonds is negligible, secondary trading of government bonds is infrequent, and there has been scarcely any public issue of corporate bonds. It is observed that the bond market remains mostly underdeveloped to finance the large infrastructural projects in Bangladesh. The study has also compared the bond market of Bangladesh with twelve Asian nations and revealed that Bangladeshi bond market appears to be very insignificant in terms of the size and the corporate bond to Gross Domestic Product (GDP) ratio relative to those of countries. There are a plethora of impediments to the expansion of the bond market in Bangladesh, which have been attributed to major structural issues such as low investor base, absence of benchmark yield curve, lack of investor awareness and high issuance cost. For the smooth operation of a deep and liquid bond market in Bangladesh, a comprehensive regulatory framework, bond investment-friendly administrative infrastructure, and augmented investor incentives are recommended. It is a message of optimism that the regulatory authority has already taken initiatives to introduce several bonds with various features to make the capital market more vibrant.

Published: August 2022

By the end of 2021, the Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus responsible for COVID-19, emerges, causing immediate concern, due to the explosive increase in cases in South Africa and a large number of mutations. This study describes the characteristic mutations of the Omicron variant in the Spike protein, and the behavior of the successive epidemic waves associated to the sub-lineages throughout the world. The mutations in the Spike protein described are related to the virus ability to evade the protec-tion elicited by current vaccines, as well as with possible reduced susceptibil-ity to host proteases for priming of the fusion process, and how this might be related to changes in tropism, a replication enhanced in nasal epithelial cells, and reduced in pulmonary tissue; traits probably associated with the apparent reduced severity of Omicron compared to other variants.

Post-democratizing Politics in Southeast and Northeast Asia
Authors: Chong Ja Ian , Osterberg-Kaufmann Norma
Published: August 2022

A growing global trend towards authoritarianism has left democracy, especially its liberal form, under strain. This has occurred despite earlier promises of democratization between the end of the Cold War and the early twenty-first century. Our essay examines how the dynamics of post-democratization
politics have played out across several polities in Southeast and Northeast Asia. These regions once included supposed "third wave" democracies and polities apparently on the cusp of political liberalization. Such expectations have not panned out. Instead, the region has generally witnessed
either significant authoritarian resilience or autocratic resurgence following spurts of political openness. We examine how such autocratic dynamics have played out following earlier movements toward democratization. Specifically, we identify three key elements of post- democratization politics
associated with autocratic success and democratic robustness based on contributions to this special issue, and suggest pathways through which they can a ect political outcomes.
 Dominant beliefs can prime accommodation with authoritarianism given pervasive acceptance of state-driven
ideologies while identification with liberal values can drive democratic consolidation and resistance to autocracy, regardless of wealth and education. Ostensibly democratic institutions, such as constitutional courts, can become anti-democratic instruments when the exercise of their independent
prerogatives means upholding autocratic tendencies that align with their interests and outlooks. Agents and their decisions can both prompt and stymie autocratization, whether intentionally or inadvertently; strategies to consolidate authority can fracture even dominant ruling coalitions.
Examining the role ideas, institutions, and agents play in post-democratic politics can further e orts at understanding the current authoritarian wave and its limits.
Accuracy and Validity of Commercial Smart Bands for Heart Rate Measurements During Cardiopulmonary Exercise Test

Published: August 2022

Objective To assess the accuracies and validities of popular smart bands for heart rate (HR) measurement in cardiovascular disease (CVD) patients during a graded exercise test (GXT).Methods Seventy-eight patients were randomly assigned to wear two different smart bands out of three possible choices: Samsung Galaxy Fit 2, Xiaomi Mi Band 5, or Partron PWB-250 on each wrist. A 12-lead exercise electrocardiogram (ECG) and patch-type single-lead ECG were used to assess the comparative HR accuracy of the smart bands. The HR was recorded during the GXT using the modified Bruce protocol.Results The concordance correlation coefficients (rc) were calculated to provide a measure of agreement between each device and the ECG. In all conditions, the Mi Band 5 and Galaxy Fit 2’ correlations were rc>0.90, while the PWB-250 correlation was rc=0.58 at rest. When evaluating the accuracy according to the magnitude of HR, all smart bands performed well (rc>0.90) when the HR was below 100 but accuracy tended to decrease with higher HR values.Conclusion This study showed that the three smart bands had a high level of accuracy for HR measurements during low-intensity exercise. However, during moderate-intensity and high-intensity exercise, all the three smart bands performed less accurately. Further studies are needed to find a more optimal smart band for HR measurement that can be used for precise HR monitoring during formal cardiac rehabilitation exercise training, including at high and maximal intensity (Clinical Trial Registration No. cris.nih.go.kr/KCT0007036).

Published: August 2022

Objective To investigate the clinical usefulness of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and tractography in the prediction of outcomes after traumatic cervical spinal cord injury (SCI) and to assess whether the predictability is different between DTI and tractography administered before and after surgery.Methods Sixty-one subjects with traumatic cervical SCI were randomly assigned to preop or postop groups and received DTI accordingly. Among the patients who had DTI before surgery, we assigned 10 patients who had received repeated DTI examinations at 8 weeks after injury to the follow-up group. Fractional anisotropy (FA) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values were obtained from DTI, and imaginary fiber and crossing fiber numbers were calculated from the tractography. Neurological status and functional status were assessed at 4 and 8 weeks after SCI.Results The neurologic and functional statuses of both groups improved after 4 weeks. Out of the initial 61 patients who were enrolled in the study, the failure rate of DTI image analysis was significantly higher in the postop group (n=17, 41.5%) than in the preop group (n=6, 20%). The FA values and fiber numbers in the preop group tended to be higher than those in the postop group, whereas ADC values were lower in the preop group. When comparing the tractographic findings in the follow-up group, imaginary fiber numbers at the C6 and C7 levels and crossing fiber numbers from the C3 to C6 levels were significantly decreased after surgery. Several DTI and tractographic parameters (especially the ADC value at the C4 level and imaginary fiber numbers at the C6 level) showed significant correlations with neurologic and functional statuses in both the preop and postop groups. These findings were most prominent when DTI and physical examination were simultaneously performed.Conclusion Preoperative DTI and tractography demonstrated better FA and ADC values with lower interpretation failure rates than those obtained after surgery, whereas postoperative data significantly reflected the patient’s clinical state at the time of evaluation. Therefore, DTI and tractography could be useful in predicting clinical outcomes after traumatic cervical SCI and should be interpreted separately before and after spine surgery.

Published: August 2022

Objective To demonstrate the sonoanatomy of the medial antebrachial cutaneous nerve (MACN) in the elbow region using high-resolution ultrasonography (HRUS) to identify areas at a high risk of MACN injury.Methods A total of 44 arms were included in the study. In the supine position, the participants’ arms were abducted 45° with the elbow fully extended. The MACN was visualized in the transverse view. The anterior branch of the MACN (ABMACN), posterior branch of the MACN (PBMACN), and location of the branching sites were determined. The distance between the ABMACN and superficial veins, including the basilic vein (BV) and median cubital veins (MCV) was measured. For the PBMACN, the distance to the ulnar nerve (UN) and to BV were measured.Results The MACN was subdivided into 2.18±1.00 branches, including ABMACN and PBMACN. The ABMACN and PBMACN were subdivided into 1.60±0.78 and 1.07±0.25 branches, respectively. The branching point of the MACN was 8.40±2.42 cm proximal to the interepicondylar line (IEL). We demonstrated that the ABMACN is located close to the BV and MCV in the elbow region, and the PBMACN was located approximately 1 cm and 0.8 cm anterior to the UN and posterior to the BV at the IEL level, respectively.Conclusion Considering the location of the MACN, including ABMACN and PBMACN, clinicians can perform invasive procedures around the elbow region more carefully to lower the risk of MACN injury.

Teknik Argumentasi Nabi yang Diajarkan Allah Untuk Menjawab Berbagai Tuduhan Quraisy
Authors: Aida Nur
Published: August 2022

Allah mengajarkan kepada Nabi Muhammad teknik argumentasi untuk menjawab tuduhan, bantahan dan argumentasi Kafir Quraisy. Teknik argumentasi ini diajarkan Allah secara langsung dan terbukti efektif. Maka selain mempelajari teori teknik argumentasi, umat Islam juga dapat belajar dari teknik argumentasi Nabi ketika menjawab argumentasi kafir Quraisy. Seperti masa rasul, hari ini tugas dakwah juga banyak dirintangi dengan berbagai tuduhan, bantahan dan argumen yang berusaha menyalahkan agama Islam. Maka diperlukan berbagai teknik argumentasi yang dapat menjawab mereka secara efektif. Tulisan ini hendak mengetahui ragam teknik argumentasi yang diajarkan Allah ketika menjawab bantahan Quraisy dan konteks penggunaanya. Menggunakan metode kualitatif, tulisan ini berusaha menganalisis ayat-ayat al-Qur’an yang berisi argumentasi untuk menjawab bantahan kafir Quraisy atas dakwah rasul. Menggunakan teori teknik argumentasi yang digagas oleh Gorys Keraf, hasilnya ditemukan teknik argumentasi yang diajarkan Allah bervariasi. Diantaranya teknik genus, persamaan, perbandingan, sebab-akibat, authoritas, keadaan dan pengandaian. Teknik pengandaian tidak ada pada kajian teoritik namun ada pada al-Qur’an. Temuan baru lain adalah ketika menggunakan teknik perbandingan dua hal yang diperbandingkan tidak harus sudah ada, bisa juga diandaikan jika diadakan.
Impementasi Analisis SWOT (Strenght, Weakness, Opportunity, Threat) pada Organisasi Dakwah
Authors: Affandy Shofyan
Published: August 2022

Analisis SWOT (Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, Threat) adalah suatu perangkat prosedur manajemen bagi organisasi untuk melakukan pemindaian lingkungan (environment scanning). Fungsi analisis SWOT untuk memberikan gambaran yang komprehensif tentang situasi lingkungan yang dihadapi oleh organisasi, sehingga bisa menjadi titik tolak bagi pengambilan keputusan strategis manajemen organisasi. Organisasi dakwah juga perlu melakukan analisis SWOT untuk mengetahui situasi lingkungan, khususnya kebutuhan para mitra dakwahnya. Agar organisasi dakwah mampu memberikan produk dan layanan dakwah yang tepat dan empati untuk menjawab kebutuhan mitra dakwahnya. Tetapi perangkat teori analisis SWOT yang berkembang saat ini masih lebih banyak diimplementasikan untuk organisasi bisnis komersial. Analisis SWOT digunakan untuk memetakan situasi persaingan bisnis dan mencari cara untuk memenangkan persaingan. Belum ada inovasi yang mengadaptasikan teori analisis SWOT agar lebih relevan untuk memetakan situasi lingkungan yang dihadapi oleh organisasi sosial dan dakwah. Karena karakter kompetisi bisnis yang agresif belum tentu sesuai dengan karakter misi dakwah yang lebih persuasif. Tulisan ini mencoba untuk mengembangkan suatu kerangka analisis SWOT yang telah diadaptasikan dengan karakter unik organisasi sosial dan dakwah. Metode yang digunakan adalah pendekatan kualitatif berbasis data kepustakaan sekunder. Berdasarkan esensi, tujuan dan metode dakwah yang tidak kompetitif, maka perlu ada penyesuaian dan pemaknaan ulang terhadap beberapa konsep dan metode analisis SWOT. Implementasi analisis SWOT pada konteks dakwah akan menghasilkan model strategi yang unik dan lebih relevan dengan pelaksanaan misi organisasi dakwah.
Academic Vocabulary Acquisition Difficulties for Saudi Postgraduate Students in New Zealand Universities
Authors: Ankawi Ayman
Published: August 2022

Education outcomes for L2 students in academic preparation programs, undergraduate studies, and graduate work are directly influenced by the learning and use of academic vocabulary. Among 15 Saudi graduate students studying in New Zealand, this study investigated at their perspectives with academic vocabulary learning. Students in Saudi Arabia who are enrolled at New Zealand universities were asked about their difficulties in learning academic vocabulary. According to this study, a new perspective on academic vocabulary can be gained by studying students' assessments of their problems in learning academic vocabulary. Four research questions are the focus of the study: 1) When it comes to mastering academic vocabulary, what are the most common challenges faced by postgraduate students? 2) What methods do these Saudi postgraduate students employ in order to increase their knowledge of academic language? 3) Do students who perceive the most difficulty in learning a new language likely to have had the least effective ways for learning vocabulary. 4) Saudi graduate students confront what kinds of problems in learning academic vocabulary? Academic vocabulary is typically a problem for graduate students in a number of areas. These challenges were addressed utilizing a qualitative approach, that comprised an exploratory study, personal face-to-face questions, and a group discussion. A wide range of academic circumstances were found to be problematic for all 15 participants, regardless of language proficiency. It was difficult to find time to read for writing when there was so much emphasis on paraphrasing. (Hirvela, 2016) Aside from that, participants had no prior experience with academic vocabulary learning and only a limited number of strategies at their disposal to assist them. In contrast, the results of this study do not support the concept that merely being revealed to academic language can increase the chances of incidental vocabulary development; somewhat more, they recommend that deliberate vocabulary knowledge is needed, so such learning should be based on sound academic skills, including the use of vocabulary study materials; and unsuitable vocabulary acquisition strategies could indeed risk causing unhappiness and loss of vocabulary knowledge. 

 
Francis Basset, 1st Baron De Dunstanville and Baron Basset of Stratton, and his mineral specimens at the Bath Royal Literary and Scientific Institution and the Natural History Museum, London
Authors: Cotterell T. , Williams M.
Published: August 2022

A small suite of historically significant Cornish minerals are recorded as having been donated to the Bath Royal Literary and Scientific Institution (BRLSI) by Lord De Dunstanville in 1826. Only sixteen specimens are extant but their quality, and the fact that they appeared to represent the largest known suite of mineral specimens owned by Francis Basset, 1st Baron De Dunstanville and Baron Basset of Stratton (1757-1835), marked them out as being of significance and worthy of further study. Subsequent investigations revealed a second, slightly larger suite of mineral specimens attributed to Lord De Dunstanville in the 'Russell Collection' within the Natural History Museum (NHM), London. This second suite was almost exclusively given by him to his sister-in-law, Lady Elizabeth Anne Coxe Hippisley (1760-1843), of Ston Easton Park, Somerset, in 1810-1811, thus providing a link to the city of Bath. The BRLSI specimens are described in detail and reviewed in comparison to the NHM specimens. In total fifty-four specimens with associations to Lord De Dunstanville are documented.
An unusual papier-mâché replica of a fossil (?) from the Free Church of Scotland College collection
Authors: Taylor M.A. , Anderson L.I.
Published: August 2022

A puzzling item of hollow painted papier-m�ch�, apparently a replica of a fossil and purportedly made about 1837, was acquired by the then Royal Scottish Museum in 1966 from the Free Church of Scotland College, Edinburgh, presumably from the latter�s natural sciences teaching collection. It resembles a fossil reptile vertebra or chunk of plant root, but the original specimen and identification remain unknown. The replica does not appear to be a cast from a mould. The inherent limitations and potentials of the technique used, apparently combining three-dimensional modelling and accentuated paintwork, raise the possibility that it was made for Professor John Fleming by his wife Melville Christie as a teaching aid for his lectures at King�s College, Aberdeen, or the Free Church College. The use of papier-m�ch� and paper to make replicas of fossils is briefly discussed.
The Texas Vertebrate Paleontology Collections - TxVP
Authors: Sagebiel V.
Published: August 2022

The purpose of this note is to establish the museum collection acronym TxVP for the Texas Vertebrate Paleontology Collections (hereafter referred to as the collection) and to briefly discuss its history as the Texas state repository as codified in the general laws of the state of Texas. The Texas Vertebrate Paleontology Collections rank among the largest vertebrate fossil collections in the world and have enjoyed continuous support from the state of Texas. However, owing to the multiple functions of the collection as a museum object collection, state repository, source of teaching material, and international research institution its governance over the years has shifted with the relative emphasis of those roles. Repeated administrative changes over the past 130 years have resulted in a confusing array of institutional acronyms being applied to the collection. The most recent internal administrative change at The University of Texas at Austin transferred the collections from the Texas Memorial Museum to the Jackson School of Geosciences. This move prompted the curatorial committee to unanimously decide on the creation and establishment of TxVP as the permanent collection acronym from now on. The purpose for this new designation is to correctly ascribe vertebrate fossils to the State Collections, rather than to prior governing institutions that are unaffiliated with, and geographically removed from, the collections.

The Creswell Crags Museum and Heritage Centre (CCMHC) and the Nottingham Natural History Museum, Wollaton Hall (NOTNH) both curate collections of prehistoric human material that have undergone limited documentation. The condition of current records demanded revision, which this study will perform. Reported here are nine cranial, and five postcranial Neolithic and late Iron Age human bone specimens, as well as two teeth, collected at the CCMHC from the late 19th century excavation of the caves of the gorge and nearby area. Three crania, and three post cranial human bone fragments dating to the late Pleistocene are present among the NOTNH collection; these originate from various locations in the East Midlands. This paper offers a revised account of the material, providing detailed osteological descriptions, and biological profiling of sex, age, pathology and taphonomy; where possible historical backgrounds, and radiocarbon dating information are included in this report. Overall the specimens were found to be in fair condition, while the collections' records of the material required minor corrections.

There is no doubt that consequences of health workforce migration are serious for any developing country. The world's largest health care migrating population is from India. India has a population of 1.38 billion, about 17.7% of the world’s population and we, as a nation, are struggling to prepare future-ready health care professionals and our own health professionals’ needs are not met. However, large numbers of Indian nurses migrate to developed countries due to numerous factors. Economic factors are considered main force for migration, but not always purely responsible, as nurses look for safety, security, respect, and dignity of their profession. This scoping review is employed to find causes, consequences, and strategies related to international migration of Indian Nurses.

Introduction to the Maturidia School of Thought, Methodology in Expressing Beliefs, and its Effects
Authors: Anwar Numan , Khan Waqas
Published: August 2022

Allah Almighty used revelation as a source of guidance for man which was revealed to the prophets and also endowed man with sound intellect. But one thing must be kept in mind in recognizing the beliefs, principles, and branches of religion, the revelation should be given primary status and intellect should be given secondary status and it should not be made the ruler. We see after the first century that many sects emerged, some of which made revelation the only standard and some the only intellect. The disadvantage of this disruption was that the sects began to quarrel with each other and the goal of defending one's own sect became real. At the same time, another sect emerged, founded by Abu Al۔ Mansur Maturidi, who gave intellect and revelation their own place in the interpretation of religion. The present study gives a brief overview of the Maturidia sect, its principles and rules in the expression of beliefs, their views on various issues, and its effects on the Muslim Ummah. As a result, the opinion of the Maturidia sect is moderate and appropriate. They do not use too much Inflation and deflation in expressing their beliefs. Moreover, this sect has left a profound intellectual impact on the Muslim Ummah which we see in the present era also.

Expressions of Jarh wa Ta'dīl through Physical Movements and Postures
Authors: Farooq Mudassar , Ahmad Saeed
Published: August 2022

By going through the glory era of Muslim Ummah in history, it was revealed that they had worked with utmost determination and care in publishing and propagating knowledge from generation to generation. At every age and in every class, such people have been born who have proven to be extraordinary Scholars starving for the right knowledge rather than Dumb idlers. They took special care in every type of knowledge and above all in Science of hadith that whatever information they have spreading or narrating, did it with full assurity, even in the transcript of the shortest word. The ancient books of Tafsīr bear witness to this fact. Take the example of Tafsīr Ṭabrī, in which every sentence related to Tafsīr is stated with full authority, except that it is an expression of Ibn Jarīr Ṭabrī's own opinion.
Isnād is more mentioned in the science of hadith, because it is directly related to the Sharīʿah, because like the Qurʾan, the words of the Prophet are also the source of the Sharīʿah. That's why the scholars of Hadith have constantly commented on the authenticity of every hadith and have thoroughly examined every person in it. The individual's memory, hobbies, the status of the sheikhs and teachers, etc. were examined in detail so that the prophetic words could be kept free from the mixture of lies and slander. This is a great scholarly achievement of the scholars of the Muslim Ummah which is unparalleled in the nations of the world. In case the condition of the narrators is objectionable, the narration is invalidated and the words from which the objections are raised are considered interrogative words (Jaraḥ), while the words through which the reliable status of the narrator of the hadith is clarified are called modification (Tʿadīl).
Regardless of the common words, sometimes the movements and gestures have been used by the scholars in Jaraḥ and Tʿadīl, which was not explicitly Jaraḥ and Tʿadīl, However, the common sense and the understanding of the students present in front of the teacher-led to the hint of Jaraḥ or Tʿadīl. In the contents of this article, some of the indications, physical movements and postures are mentioned which make the Jaraḥ and Tʿadīl clear.

Totalitarian View of Progression: A Study in Islamic and Western Perspectives
Authors: Javaid Muhammad Naeem , Sheikh Sajid Iqbal
Published: August 2022

Progression and development are a phenomenon that is somehow possessed by human nature. This paper aims to elaborate on diverse views on the issue of growth in Islamic and Western perspectives. Islam in its nature and worldview believes in Devine wisdom and promotes the concept of success in this world and the world hereafter. Islamic injunctions regarding development and growth do not limit to this world only, so the whole scenario of Islamic civilization rounds the view of eternal happiness as a broader concept. On contrary, Western concepts are totally opposing Islamic doctrine. We are quite unable to find religious discourses in the Western scope of success and growth. This paper depicts that as a dominant civilization, Western values have been impacting the whole world but it is totally contradicting Islamic values. Applying the discourse analysis method this study concludes that Islam as a comprehensive religion presents solutions regarding all walks of life including social, economic, political, psychological, etc. Which is totally against the nature of the Western domain.
