道器之辨的逻辑发展

道器之辨是中国哲学史长期讨论的话题;道器之辨经历了道器本末未定论、道本器末论、器本道末论三个发展阶段;道本论强调要"以道御器",让器服从于道,服务于道;而器本论者认为道器不相分离,无形之道不能脱离有形之气。     

炎姜、姬周两后稷的时代及其代兴考

古文献中有两个不同的稷神：一个是炎姜部落烈山氏后稷柱，另一个才是姬周先祖后稷弃，二者之间为甥舅关系。炎姜部落活动的区域在陕西中部、甘肃青海的东部地区，这一地区在仰韶文化时期有半坡遗址、姜寨遗址、大地湾等遗址，作为粟黍类农作物正适合在这片土壤条件优越而环境条件良好的区域中生长，在这个新石器时期的大暖期，农业生产率先在黄土高原发展起来，并被称之为“神农氏”。从古史传说的炎帝到虞舜时代，炎姜部落世世代代担任农官“后稷”，并以炎帝烈山氏后裔柱作为农神来祭祀。不窑便“弃稷不务”，并窜于戎狄之间，以至于周先祖失其代数。夏后期“弃稷不务”的原因，是夏代气候恶化造成的。到夏代末年，先周公刘至古公的农业再次兴盛，后稷弃又再次受到商人尊祀。     

大学生言语失范的表现、成因及其应对措施

在生活环境、学习环境以及在公共领域中，大学生言语失范的现象大量存在，这严重影响了大学生的美好形象，也影响到大学生的健康成长以及社会评价，所以言语素质的培养不应该受到忽视而应该成为大学生道德教育的重点。大学生言语行为往往同道德认知、身心发展与社会环境等因素有关。可以通过弘扬优良的言语道德传统和加强言语道德的研究、教育与实践来提高大学生的言语素质。     

Lower bounds on expectations of positive L-statistics from without-replacement models

We consider samples drawn without replacement from finite populations. We establish optimal lower non-negative and upper non-positive bounds on the expectations of linear combinations of order statistics centered about the population mean in units generated by the population central absolute moments of various orders. We also specify the general results for important examples of sample extremes, Gini mean differences and sample range. The paper completes the results of Papadatos and Rychlik [2004. Bounds on expectations of L-statistics from without replacement samples. J. Statist. Plann. Inference 124, 317–336], where sharp negative lower and positive upper bounds on the expectations of the combinations were presented for the without-replacement samples.     

关于《毛诗序》作者的新思考——论毛奇龄对《诗序》作者的研究

《诗序》的作者问题是诗经研究中的一大公案。而毛亨作《序》说在诸多争论中始终居于主流地位，具有相当的影响。但主张这一说法的学者却一直未能解释《序》、《传》间不合的矛盾。事实上，清初著名学者毛奇龄曾对这一问题提出过十分精辟的见解，却始终未受到学界重视。他不仅指明《诗序》本是《毛诗故训传》的一部分，即“故”和“训”，因而其作者同为毛亨；并且解释了《序》、《传》不合的合理性。     

Wilcoxon–Mann–Whitney test for stratified samples and Efron's paradox dice

Two-treatment multi-center clinical trials are the most common type of clinical trials in practice. The aim of this paper is to discuss a curious property of certain standard nonparametric procedures used in the analysis of such clinical trials. Different analyses of a simulated data example are presented, which lead to contrasting and surprising results. The source of the potentially misleading outcome is then explored while relating the simulated data with the concept of Efron's paradox dice and the notion of nontransitivity. With the root of the problem established, an alternate nonparametric method from the literature is shown to address the problem. Finally, pointing out an interpretational concern of using the alternate procedure, a modification to this procedure is also suggested and corresponding theoretical results are presented.

新时期中国经济现代化成功启动的原因

改革开放以来,中国经济现代化实现了成功启动。其成功启动,离不开对百余年中国现代化史的科学总结,离不开对旧有社会主义发展模式的深刻反思,离不开对旧的国际战略格局的超越,同时也离不开现代西方工业文明的深刻影响。正确总结其原因,对今天的现代化建设仍具有重要意义。     

Automobile prices and protection: The U.S.-Japan trade restraint

We examine the effects of the U.S.-Japan trade restraint on automobile prices and quality upgrading, for both Japanese imports and American small cars. From April 1981 to April 1984 the suggested retail price of all Japanese models increased by 15.8 percent, or 5.3 percent per year. We find that nearly the entire amount of this rise can be explained by the upgrading of individual models. This upgrading may benefit consumers who would purchase a luxury import in any case, but harms those who desire the basic imports. In addition to upgrading, we conclude that a second cost of the trade restraint has been to prevent the yen depreciation from being passed onto American consumers, in terms of lower imported auto prices. For U.S. small cars we find a 9.1 percent rise in the suggested retail price, or 3 percent per year, with a fraction of this amount due to model upgrading. If the yen depreciation had led to lower import prices without the trade restraint, then we expect that U.S. auto prices would have been lower, too.     

论"革命文学"的流行性艺术素质

“革命文学”之所以在1920年代后期广为流行,其中一个重要原因,就在于它采用了为广大读者熟悉并喜爱的艺术手法,从而使其艺术素质隐含着一定的流行态势。“革命文学”的独特叙事方式,缩短了读者与作家及作品人物之间的距离,增加了叙事的真实性与感染力。而它在题材上呈现出的“故事类型”化特点,以及局部细节描写上的“套式”形态,都便于读者的理解与接受。此外,传统的人物描写手法以及语言的简单易懂,又进一步促进了“革命文学”的广泛流行。
