Violence in Jiahu
The Jiahu site located in the Central Plains of China exhibits notable social complexity and distinct ideological characteristics. Analyses focused on human trauma documented in the burials, along with likely weapons for both blunt force trauma and piercing, and traces of potential defensive works, indicate the significance of intergroup conflicts at the site. An elite subset of the settlement population, composed predominantly of adult males, as…
Yu Yan or Fable
Yu yan is a way of argumentation and writing style, and has a history of over two thousand years in China. In the twentieth century, yu yan has developed into a literary genre similar to fable. This article argues that the two sets of Chinese translations of The Canterbury Tales by Sun Yuxiu and Lin Shu provide an important point to examine the shifting understanding of yu yan, and they reflect the Chinese cultural conflicts during the socially t…

Partial substitution of chemical fertilizers with maize straw
Straw application increases crop yield, but the underlying mechanisms of straw‐substitution for chemical fertilizer on yield is not completely understood. We hypothesized that straw application improves crop yield by improving soil quality. In order to clarify how partial substitution of chemical fertilizers with maize straw affects soil properties and the specific contribution of soil properties to double‐cropping rice yield, we selected a long‐…
Investigating EFL Learners' Perceptions of Critical Thinking Learning Affordances
Affordances are action possibilities provided by the environment. This study investigated university EFL learners' perceptions of the critical thinking learning affordances in their course learning environment. The participants were a cohort of 156 fourth-year English majors from a Chinese university where the English department was under a curriculum reform to promote students' language learning and critical thinking development. The instrument …
The Linearity of Verb Copying Cleft Construction in Chinese
In Standard Chinese, verb doubling cleft construction (henceforth VDCC) has received little attention in the linguistic literature. Recently, Cheng and Vicente (2013) claim that VDCC has the same internal syntax as regular clefts, and two verbs stand in A-bar movement relation based on the lexical identity effect. In this paper, we argue that (1) VDCC is derived in line with the principle of linearity; (2) the first verb is a reduced minimal form…
Is the allocation of medical and health resources effective? Characteristic facts from regional heterogeneity in China
This study innovatively incorporates undesired outputs of health care into the efficiency evaluation framework by constructing the main efficiency evaluation indicators. The results of the robust evaluation conclude that China's existing investment in medical and health resources is generally not effective. Therefore, although China's health care reform has made certain achievement, it is still necessary to expand the investment in health care re…

Preventing Effect on Diet-Induced Obesity Ofwater-Extract From Masson Pine Pollen on Mice
Background: In order to investigate the preventing effect of water-extract from masson pine pollen (PWE) on obesity in mice. Materials and Methods: Sixty male KM mice (bodyweight was 19±1g) were divided randomly into six groups: normal control group (NC), high fat group (FC), positive control group (Orlistat, 0.05g/kg bw·d, PC), low-dose PWE group (0.0625g/kg bw·d, PWEL), medium-dose group (0.125g/kg bw·d, PWEM) and high-dose group (0.25g/kg bw·d…
