PARTICLES USED IN PHRASAL VERBS

The large number of expressions like "break out, come across", etc. forms an important characteristic in the modern English vocabulary. Such combinations of a common verb plus one or more than one particle are called "phrasal verbs". They are used casually and colloquially in everyday speech. Because of their simplicity and effectiveness, phrasal verbs are more and more used in modern English,especially in the last thirty years. So,a mastery of phrasal verbs will help

宋代--东方的文艺复兴

在世界历史上,中国文化曾一直保持着世界领先的地位,宋代被誉为东方的文艺复兴。这种兴盛的局面主要建立在宋代的科学技术之上,也与当时的宗教局面和对外开放的国家态势有着密切的关系。全面认识东方文艺复兴的根源,有助于我们认识科学技术是第一生产力的论断,增强民族自豪感,促进21世纪中叶实现中华民族的新的伟大复兴。,In history China had all the time kept the leading role as her international position before the end of the Song Dynasty, t herefore she has been honoured as the Renaissance in the East.

短文改错

We had guests last night who have not stayed in a B＆B hotel ago. They did not want breakfast because that they were going out early in the morning. They came back lately and had some tea. I came into the riving room and saw one of them just go through the kitchen door but turn on the light. He was looking for a glass the cupboard. He had no ideas that the kitchen was not for guests. I just smiled to me and thought, “What can I do？ We are guests after all.”     

NEOLITHIC SITES OF HOT''''IEN,SOUTHWEST FUKIEN,CHINA.

Prehistoric archaeology has progressed a large step since 1949 and manyquestions were solved after a great number of prehistoric sites had beendiscovered.It is generally accepted that in the neolithic age of China thereexisted two types of culture:the 1st is the well-known“Painted-pottery Culture”in the north-web,tern part,the 2nd is the“Black-pottery Culture”in the easternpart of China;while the 3rd one the“Printed Geometric-designed potteryCulture proposed by other scholars and the writer(In my former papersbeginning from“A Neolithic site in Wuping Fukien”read in the 3rd Congressof Far-eastern Prehistorians held in Singapore Jan.1938)as that of the south-eastern region of China has not yet been determined until now.The recentdiscoveries in this region including that of Hot'ien as dealt with in this paper,however,have provided many valuable evidences to this hypothesis.     

How to Develop student's Reading skills?

IntroductionWhen I taught extensive reading, I found many students didn't know how to read more effi-ciently. They had difficulties in understanding the text as a whole. They didn't know how toinfer something from what they had read. After reading a text, they could answer correctly only5--6 out of the ten questions following it. Questions like "What is the author's attitude?""What is the tone of this article?"or "How has the author organised his essay?" were difficultfor them.This article aims to present some suggetions for developing student's reading skills.     

DEVELOPMENT OF A MORE MARKET-ORIENTED ECONOMY IN CHINA

SummaryAfter describing the economic institutions for agriculture and industry in China before 1978, this paper points out the reasons for and the key elements of economic reform. It then discusses the major issues currently being deliberated by the leading economic reform officials regarding reform of the price system, the administrative structure of state-owned enterprises, the banking system and macroeconomic control mechanisms, and foreign trade and investment. Finally future prospects of the reform and of China's economic development will be indicated.The transformation of the economy of the People's Republic of China from a planned to a more market-oriented economy is perhaps the most significant development in world history during the last quarter of the twentieth century what was the Chinese economic system like before 1979? why were reforms introduced? what are their essential elements? what are the important issues currently addressed by the reform officials? what are the future prospects? These are the questions to be answered in this paper. The Chinese economy is a complicated entity with many dimensions. Space permits discussion of only those aspects pertinent to the transition to a more market-oriented economy.     

The Stress of English Compound Words

By way of summary, can we formulate any, general rules concerning stress of compound words? As a result of this study, what ways may be pointed to for solving the difficulty? In the first place, the tendency towards stress seems to be different for the two main groups studied, compounds terminating in nouns and those terminating in adjectives. 55 percent of the compounds ending with nouns were single-stressed, 45 percent double-stressed, that is, for compounds ending in nouns, there is no strong tendency either way. 76 percent of the compounds ending, with adjectives were double-stressed and only about, 23 percent single-stressed; that is, for compounds with adjectives as the second component there is a strong tendency towards double stress. In the second place general rules are not much of a help in determining and learning the stress of individual compounds. One must learn the rule for each class of compounds. In classes where the rule for one form of stress is fixed, asfor double stress of compounds consisting of an adjective plus a past participle, the rule is indeed helpful. But such rules are not many. In the third place, a mastery of certain principles that determine stress is important, for instance, the principle that implied constrast tends to make a compouud single-stressed, even if the compound would otherwise be double-stressed, Also the principles that old recognized compounds would be single-stressed, and that compounds of adjective form when used attributively are single-stressed but when used predicatively, double-stressed. In the fourth place, it is wise to look up every newly-met compound in the dictionary and master its stress. Mastery of those compound words will help in determining the stress of, other newly-met compounds by the use of analogy. Awareness of this problem and attention to it are the first steps toward its solution. Finally,. may Ⅰtake the iiberty of setting forth a few points of advice for the Chinese student of English? Start studying the qnestion of the stress of compounds, master every compound you encounter, make lists of them; classify them and find the rules for each class for yourself inductively. These procedures will take you a long way towards the mastery of the stress of compounds.     

Manufacturing's Roel in Innovation Diffusion and Technological Substitution

Successful innovation management depends upon both, the intrinsic attributes of the new product to be marketed and the firm's internal performance like cost management, timely delivery and quality assurance. The impact of these latter aspects is frequently neglected in the design of models for supporting decision making in innovative firms.A model is outlined to study the market response of different manufacturing policies for innovative goods. It allows e.g. the evaluation of an aggressive strategy with large production capacities from the outset, or a more tentative behavior to. avoid the pressures stemming from high fixed cost and the risks of eventually idle capacity.     

THE COMMUNICATIVE APPROACH TO THE TEACHING OF ENGLISH AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE

1. Introduction In educational theory, as with most things, there exist fashions and trends. Within the field of foreign language teaching the communicative approach is with good reason very fasharable in the west. The name certainly makes it difficult to argue with, who would want to use the 'non-communicative' approach to teaching a foreign language? The need to communicate in a language is what makes language teaching different from teaching many other subjects. If you study geography, you learn about places, but if you only learn about a language it is not enough. I
