论《周易》“谦”卦之谦德教化意蕴

《周易》谦卦是中国传统谦德的滥觞。孔子所作之《易传》及后儒的注解认为,以卦象推及人道,谦卦大致有谦退、谦让、谦虚三德:有而不居谓谦退,其意在提醒禄位尊盛之人勿居有持傲、而应以卑退获得最终的善果;虚怀若谷谓谦虚,其意在启迪进取之君子于大世界前保持敬畏的心态,以广大的胸襟容纳万物、从而获得不断的进益;外柔内刚谓谦让,其意在劝诫普通民众,在群体社会中彼此让出弹性的空间,以达到和谐的共处。以上三方面谦德成为了中华传统伦理道德教化体系的重要组成部分。     

交际性语言测试理论与新CET-4写作测试

交际性语言测试以测试交际能力为宗旨。具体到写作命题，它侧重命题本身的交际性。大学英语四级（CET-4）对促进大学英语教学功不可没，但其写作部分在命题、任务类型、评分标准等方面受到众多质疑。新CET-4交际性写作命题必将对写作教学产生积极的反拨作用。     

A Realistic Path to Implementing China’s Budget Law

The core issue for the implementation of modern budget law is to optimize the satisfaction of society’s demand for public goods. The form of implementation mechanism that will best achieve this goal has thus become a major topic in the field of legal research. To go beyond the Anglo-Saxon budget model and construct a realistic path for the implementation of China’s budget law, this issue needs to be explored from the perspective of Chinese citizens in a way that safeguards the fundamental interests of the people and is premised on upholding and improving the People’s Congress system, so as to achieve a balance between internal and external budget allocation relationships. There are three routes to implementing China’s budget law: the political, the social, and the judicial. Under the first, citizens’ political identity interests are represented by deputies who oversee the budgetary powers of administrative bodies through the People’s Congress. Under the second, citizens individually or collectively participate, influence or even decide the allocation of public economic resources through dialogue, negotiation, reasoning and argument with the responsible budgetary agency in the course of the budget’s compilation, examination and approval, execution and supervision. Under the third, the establishment of a system for budgetary litigation allows citizens to participate in and supervise the implementation of the budget law, individually or collectively. This provides judicial security for the law’s implementation. These three realistic implementation routes represent the dialectical unity of concerted institutional effort aimed directly at effective implementation of budget law. Judicial interpretations of budget law implementation indicate the importance and urgency of promoting national governance capacity through reform of the legal systems governing finance and taxation. This explains the significant role of finance and taxation law in national governance.

政治性与政治:后原教旨主义的政治视野——以穆芙和巴迪欧为例

尽管政治性与政治的区分已经在西方左翼政治思想家那里得到了比较广泛的认可,但这些思想家使用这两个概念时,因其各自的思想而迥异.本文将这一对区分的渊源追溯到卡尔·施米特那里,并从一种后原教旨主义的角度对政治性和政治的区分进行政治解读,尤其是以两个重要的左翼思想家--穆芙和巴迪欧--作为例子,详尽分析隐藏在政治性和政治区分背后的左翼路径选择的差异.     

外语专业大学生听说能力培养模式探索

在我国现有条件下有效地培养外语专业学生的听说能力,语言环境是一个非常重要的因素,但又不是唯一的因素。本文拟以Krashen的二语习得理论及Canal＆Swain的交际能力理论模式为基础来探讨外语专业学生外语听说能力的培养模式,进而对外语专业听说教学提供一些新的思路。     

1978年以来中国自然灾害管理存在的问题分析

1978年以来,中国逐步确立了分级管理的灾害管理体制,并极力推进救灾社会化、科学化、法制化以及国际化建设,有效提高了中国的救灾减灾能力.但改革中仍然存在一些问题亟待解决,包括灾害管理社会化程度较低、城市防灾意识薄弱、减灾知识的普及力度不够、灾害心理辅导缺失、法制建设滞后、灾害保险制度不平衡发展、基层组织救灾能力薄弱,等等.     

A further examination of antecedents of correctional staff life satisfaction

Working in corrections is not only a demanding job, but a socially important one. While a growing number of studies have examined how the work environment impacts the job stress, job satisfaction, and organizational commitment of staff, very few studies have examined how working in corrections impacts the life satisfaction of workers. The current study utilized OLS regression to examine the antecedents of life satisfaction among staff at a Midwestern private prison. Job satisfaction had a positive relationship with life satisfaction, while age, work on family conflict, family on work conflict, and job involvement all had statistically significant negative effects. Finally, perceptions of the level of financial rewards, job stress, organizational commitment, gender, race, educational level, tenure, supervisory status, position, marital status, and having children, all had non-significant associations with overall satisfaction with life.     

论对外汉语专业教育的国际化

对外汉语是一个非常特殊的专业。其特殊的专业性质，决定该专业必然要走上教育国际化之路。专业教育国际化是对外汉语自身发展的客观需要，是汉语国际推广背景下对外汉语专业建设的必然选择，是解决国外“汉语教师荒”与国内对外汉语专业学生就业难矛盾的必由之路，是全面推进高等教育国际化的现实选择。目前对外汉语专业教育中普遍存在着专业目标不明确、对外语教学重视不够、缺少实践环节、就业渠道不畅通等问题，应该从优化课程设置、开展全外语或双语教学、加强同国外高校的合作、加快师资培训的国际化等方面加快对外汉语专业教育的国际化进程。     

Assessment of Catastrophic Risk Using Bayesian Network Constructed from Domain Knowledge and Spatial Data

Prediction of natural disasters and their consequences is difficult due to the uncertainties and complexity of multiple related factors. This article explores the use of domain knowledge and spatial data to construct a Bayesian network (BN) that facilitates the integration of multiple factors and quantification of uncertainties within a consistent system for assessment of catastrophic risk. A BN is chosen due to its advantages such as merging multiple source data and domain knowledge in a consistent system, learning from the data set, inference with missing data, and support of decision making. A key advantage of our methodology is the combination of domain knowledge and learning from the data to construct a robust network. To improve the assessment, we employ spatial data analysis and data mining to extend the training data set, select risk factors, and fine‐tune the network. Another major advantage of our methodology is the integration of an optimal discretizer, informative feature selector, learners, search strategies for local topologies, and Bayesian model averaging. These techniques all contribute to a robust prediction of risk probability of natural disasters. In the flood disaster's study, our methodology achieved a better probability of detection of high risk, a better precision, and a better ROC area compared with other methods, using both cross‐validation and prediction of catastrophic risk based on historic data. Our results suggest that BN is a good alternative for risk assessment and as a decision tool in the management of catastrophic risk.
