Authors: Zhu Pingping
Published: September 2023

The outreach of government work reports is related to national image and international diplomacy, reflecting a certain political attitude, and its importance is self-evident, so is the outreach of local government work reports, which is also very important for foreign readers to understand China’s local development and shape the image of international cities. However, the outreach of local government work reports has not yet received much attention, and there are few official translations. This paper aims to provide more examples for the English translation of pronouns in political texts through translation practice and to raise the attention to the outreach of local government work reports by using the case study method and literature research method to produce a faithful and accurate translation of the Qingdao Municipal Government Work Report. The work report of Government contains a large number of sentences with the first person as the main subject and unattributed sentences, which provide a large number of examples for studying the translation method of personal pronouns in political texts. The translation practice concludes that the English translation of personal pronouns in political texts mainly includes direct translation, additional translation and original meaning substitution. This study supplements the important guiding value of manifestation strategy to the translation of political texts, study the translation methods of personal pronouns in political texts, and further explores the influence of the usage function of personal pronouns on the motivation of manifestation, which has certain reference value for improving the attention of local government work reports for outreach and improving the quality of the publicity of political texts.
The Semantic Meaning of Verb+ Particle Construction Based on Emergent Metaphor Theory
Authors: Lu Wenkun
Published: September 2023

The origin of Verb+ Particle can be traced back to the Old English period. During the development of Old English to Middle English, the Particle slowly replaced the role of verbal prefixes, and by the late Middle English, it completely replaced verbal prefixes and became a category used quite frequently in everyday English communication. The Verb+ Particle is one of the English phrasal verbs, and because of its multiple meanings, Chinese English learners easily confuse the meaning and make mistakes when acquiring and applying it, thus its becoming a major obstacle for English learners. The thesis tries to use emergent metaphor theory and construction grammar theory in cognitive pragmatics to analyze the semantic meaning of the four common particles down from the form and meaning of Verb +particle constructions, and then to use the meaning features to relate the specific meaning items of Verb + particle. participants, thus strengthening the ability to understand and use Verb +particle in specific contexts, and exploring a new path for English learners to understand the semantic meaning of Verb+ particle.
On Kosík's Criticism of Pseudosubject
Authors: Zhang Hongzhen
Published: September 2023

The purpose of this article is to shed light on the criticism that Czech Marxist philosopher Karel Kosík contributed to pseudosubject in his important work entitled The Crisis of Modernity. Pseudosubject in Kosík’s terminology, refers to the mystified pseudosubject hidden behind the two systems of free competition and bureaucratic rule. This pseudosubject not only governs the two systems but also develops into a kind of limitless subjectivism. The pseudosubject based on the principles of manipulability and calculability reduces man to pure tools for the operation of the system. Kosík holds that humanistic socialism can make people a real subject because it is the establishment of a revolutionary alliance of workers and intellectuals in practice and theoretically destroy the mystique and derivation of pseudosubjects in light of dialectics of concrete.
Exploring Vygotsky's Zone of Proximal Development in Pedagogy: A Critique of a Learning Event in the Business/Economics Classroom
Authors: Xue Zhenghong
Published: September 2023

This academic journal article presents a critical examination of Lev Vygotsky's Social Constructivist Theory and its application in the Business/Economics classroom within a British educational context. Vygotsky's theory posits that the interaction between an individual's learning and social environment significantly shapes their intellectual development. This research highlights the educator's crucial role in understanding students' limitations in the learning context and providing necessary support and guidance to facilitate effective learning outcomes. Central to Vygotsky's theory is the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD), representing the "learning gap" between a student's current knowledge and their potential. Emphasizing the concept of Scaffolding as a key strategy to bridge this gap, this study investigates how Scaffolding, though not explicitly mentioned by Vygotsky, aligns inherently with the ZPD theory, facilitating students' progression from their current proficiency level (Point A) to a more advanced stage (Point B).

An empirical study on the relationship between the internal control effectiveness and the quality of environmental information disclosure: public data from listed companies in China's oil and gas industry
Authors: Wang Yue , Hu Yuwei
Published: September 2023

As China pays more attention to environmental pollution and environmental protection issues, corporate environmental accounting information disclosure has also received attention from researchers. The oil and gas industry, as the lifeblood of the national economy and at the same time an unavoidably heavy polluting industry, should be more vigorous in environmental protection and the regulatory requirements should be more stringent. Among the factors that affect the quality of corporate environmental information disclosure, internal control has certain research value as an institutional system that regulates corporate behavior. This paper explores the impact of internal control effectiveness on the quality of environmental accounting information disclosure by establishing a multiple linear regression model for empirical analysis, using listed companies in the oil and gas industry from 2016 to 2020 as the research object.
The Influence of Proactive Personality on Teachers’ Professional Identity: The Moderating Effect of Person–Organization Fit
Authors: Chen Lintao
Published: September 2023

This research tried to explore the moderating effect of Person–Organization Fit (P-O Fit) in the impact of proactive personality on teachers’ professional identity. The data was collected by distributing questionnaires online to teachers of two high schools in Xiangtan. The analysis results show that P-O fit has a moderating effect on proactive personality and teachers’ professional identity. The positive impact of proactive personality on teachers’ professional identity will be stronger when the P-O fit is high. The results also show that young or newly engaged teachers have lower professional identity. Therefore, this study suggests school administrators pay attention to the development of young teachers’ professional identity and improve the fit between teachers and schools to improve the teaching quality.

The Change of One Translator's Style and Cognition: A Speech-act Report Verb Study of Allan Barr's Two Translations of Yu Hua's Works
Authors: Li Yajie , Bin Abdullah Muhammad Alif Redzuan , Hanafiah Halis Azhan Bin Mohd
Published: September 2023

This article aims to explore the changes in a translator’s style with time and translation practice. Allan Barr was selected as the research subject, considering that his five translations of famous writer Yu Hua's works lasted for 16 years. Instead of focusing on one translator's consistent stylistic features throughout all his or her translations by comparing their translations with others, this study demonstrated the shift of a translator’s style through the revised source-oriented model for the study of the style. A systematic analysis was conducted on the quantitative and qualitative data regarding the English translations for the most frequent speech-act report verbs collected from the parallel corpus. The self-established corpus comprises Barr's earlier translation of “Boy in the Twilight: Stories of the Hidden China” (Yu, 2014), which was completed in 2003. This was followed by his later translation for “The April 3rd Incident: Stories” (Yu, 2018), which was completed in 2018. Notably, Barr's understanding of style and translation ideology may change with time and translation practice, as indicated by the significant difference in the frequency of the speech-act report verbs with the same semantic meanings in ST and TT. This condition was also indicated through the distinguished motivations to change the semantic meaning of the speech-act verbs in the ST between Barr's earlier and subsequent translations. Subsequently, it was found that the method of corpus-based translator's style study can be applied to investigate how social and cognitive factors motivate a translator to change his or her translation ideology and strategies.

Authors: Monárrez Rubén , Mohamadi Amin , Drew Jacob M. , Abdeen Ayesha
Published: September 2023

Use of mobile applications to improve patient engagement is particularly promising in total joint arthroplasty (TJA) whereby successful outcomes are predicated by patient engagement. In accordance with published guidelines by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses, studies were searched, screened, and appraised for quality on various search engines. Hedges' g or odds ratios of patient adherence were reported. Twelve studies met the inclusion criteria, and the average age of 9,521 patients included was 60 years. Six studies concluded that mobile applications improved patients' satisfaction, with Hedges' g revealing an effect size of 1.64 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.90 to 2.37), P < 0.001, in favor of mobile applications increasing patient satisfaction. Six studies reported improvements in compliance demonstrating an odds ratio for improved adherence of 4.57 (95% CI, 1.66 to 12.62), P < 0.001. Two studies reported a reduction in unscheduled office or emergency department visits. With evolving reimbursement policies linked to outcomes paired with the exponentially increasing volume of TJA performed, innovative ways to efficiently deliver high-quality care are in demand. Our systematic review is limited by a dearth of research on the nascent technology, but the available data suggest that mobile applications may enhance patient satisfaction, improve compliance, and reduce unscheduled visits after TJA.

Authors: Abraham Edward , Deshpande Abhishek , Lichtig Asher , Paladino Lucas
Published: September 2023

Case:

A three year, 11 month old girl sustained a right displaced extension supracondylar fracture (ESF) of the humerus with comminution of the lateral column after an indoor fall. At surgery, fracture reduction showed multidirectional instability. Adequate reduction was achieved by applying longitudinal traction of the arm with partial elbow flexion and forearm supination. One percutaneous medial pin, followed by one lateral cross pin, was used to immobilize the fracture. Normal posterolateral new periosteal bone formation was seen on radiograph on the lateral side. At 5-year follow-up, she had full range of asymptomatic and symmetrical elbow motion.

Conclusion:

This case report shows a displaced ESF with a comminuted lateral humeral column, which contributed to a lack of adequate lateral pin purchase on bone. A modified pin fixation technique first with a medial pin and followed by a lateral pin with both placed through the medial column was used for stable fracture fixation. In addition, this case showed that fracture comminution was a contributory factor to the rare multidirectional instability of the Gartland Type IV fracture.

Impact of Climate Change on water security and Endorsing importance of Rainwater Harvesting Technology in Nepal
Authors: Tikhatri Dipan , Bhattarai Sabu Sharma
Published: September 2023

The day-by-day increment in the concentration of greenhouse gases (GHGs) in the atmosphere is widely believed to be a main contributing factor for climate change. It affects widely on diverse sectors such as water resources, agriculture, forestry, human health, biodiversity, and snow cover and aquatic life. Nepal is experiencing the adverse impact of climate change; this includes such as a variability in temperature and precipitation, overbank flooding from snow-fed rivers, and variability in available river and stream water quantity. Climate in the Nepal Himalayas is changing faster than the global average. Moreover, the changes in the high-altitudes have been found more pronounced than in the low-altitudes. Since, there is no definite trend that could be found in the annual precipitation records, clear decreasing trends could be seen in annual number of rainy days during the study period of 1971-2000. The glaciers in the Nepal Himalayas are shrinking rapidly and there will be no glaciers left by 2180. An accelerated glacier melt will cause an increase in water availability at the beginning but ultimately a decrease in water availability after the glaciers disappear. This will widen the gap between water supply and demand. Changing climate may further exacerbate the water stress which already happening in Nepal due to the monsoon dominated climate. Climate change (CC) will also further increase the seasonal imbalance- too much of water during rainy season and too less of it during dry seasons. Rainwater harvesting technology has the potential to provide numerous benefits to communities and individuals, particularly in areas where water resources are scarce or unreliable. From the analysis and through our research work it is found that if we can simply install and construct rainwater harvesting technology in our individual household only. It nearly fulfills about 15-25% of our domestic water demand. As in urban and rural area of Nepal still nearly about 50% of water demand is fulfilled by groundwater source which increase to 60-70% in dry season. The projected physical impacts of climate change on water resources would have substantial socioeconomic impacts and consequences for Nepal. The hydropower potential and agricultural production would be seriously affected by global warming. A reduction in agricultural production would be experienced due to water security and have significant impact on the food security and livelihoods of the subsistence farmers, who make the majority of the Nepal’s population. As the urgent need for climate change mitigation remains crucial, putting all the necessary resources and institutions in place for future adaptation is indispensable. The Inter-governmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has listed rainwater-harvesting as a key strategy for a planned adaptation in the water sector. The policy statements about rainwater harvesting-based climate change adaptation are currently not being effectively coordinated.

Due to postharvest losses on fresh produce, most farmers apply simple and affordable open sun-drying in-between harvest and the final consumers but this method causes the growth of mold and fungi in processed food. Hence, the objective of this study was to isolate and characterize molds associated with the drying of plantain chips, and post-drying handling of catfish and cassava peels using standard laboratory procedures. One gram (1gm) of respective samples of plantain chips, dried fish, and cassava peel was taken and crushed in a mortar, 1g of each was serially diluted up 10-6 fold, and 0.1mL of each was pour-plated in potato dextrose agar modified with chloramphenicol and incubated for 72 hours at 280C. Thereafter, discrete colonies were counted and characterized using standard laboratory procedures. A total of eight fungal isolates were identified which were Aspergillus flavus, Rhizopus sp., Aspergillus niger, Fusarium sp., Penicillium digitatum, Aspergillus fumigatus, Mucor sp., Neurospora sp. The mean fungal counts of cassava peels revealed that the samples recorded the highest mean fungal counts which were by Mucor sp. (24.1x106 Cfu/g) while Catfish had the lowest overall mean counts (3.2x106 Cfu/g). But Aspergillus niger had the lowest counts of (2.7x106 Cfu/g) in plantain chips. The total mean fungal count at ratio: catfish (31.4), plantain chips (37.6), and cassava peel (111). In conclusion, several findings from this work showed that samples dried under the sun in the studied area were contaminated with mycotoxin-producing microbes that could lead to their early decay, deterioration and loss of nutrients.
