Navigating Temporal and Spatial Dimensions:Unveiling the Fictional Essence and Authenticity in the Narrative of The Rise and Fall of Wing Shing Street

The novel The Rise and Fall of Wing Shing Street delves into the reality of Hong Kong residents deeply attuned to spatial awareness but detached from temporal significance,entangling emotions surrounding time and space.Through narrative interruption and extension,the author portrays the genuine struggles of Hong Kong inhabitants-juxtaposing the blurred boundaries of time and space and the inherent rootlessness of reality within a fictionalized framework.Emphasizing the 20th-century human condition,wherein spatial awareness overshadows temporal understanding,the novel underscores the consequences:a loss of history and cultural identity.With a fresh perspective,the narrative explores the interplay of time and space,accentuating both the fictitious and authentic dimensions.This prompts readers to reconsider their history,culture,and the current moment,ultimately highlighting the pivotal role of temporal awareness.

Study on the Characteristics ofSeismic Activity in West China andIts neighboring Regions

The controlling and influencing effects of the joint action of plates surrounding China on strong earthquakes in Chinese mainland are discussed, and the characteristics of seismic activities in the West of China and neighboring regions are further studied. The results show that the seismic activity in the West of China and neighboring regions not only has the characteristics of high tide and low tide alternation but also has the characteristics of rising in one region while falling in another, and the rise and fall of seismicity are in some proportion. The above characteristics are useful for the prediction of main body region of strong earthquakes in Chinese mainland, especially for the judgement of the ending time of the high tide period.

Can investors profit by utilizing technical trading strategies?Evidence from the Korean and Chinese stock markets

The idea of this study is derived from observing the profitability of stock investments following the phenomena of continuously rising(or falling)prices of stocks and continuously overbought(or oversold)signals emitted by technical indicators.We employ the standard event study approach and technical trading strategies to explore whether investors would exploit profits in trading the constituent stocks of the Korea Composite Stock Price Index 50 and Shanghai Stock Exchange 50 when the aforementioned continuous phenomena occur.We find that both the Korean and Chinese stock markets are not fully efficient;this finding may enhance the robustness of the existing literature.In addition,we reveal that contrarian strategies are appropriate for the trading stocks listed on the Korean stock market for all the cases investigated in this study.However,momentum strategies are appropriate for the Chinese stock market when continuously rising stock prices and overbought signals are simultaneously observed.These findings imply that the difference in investor behaviors between the Korean and Chinese stock markets might result in dissimilar trading strategies being employed for these two markets.

The Land of Shu:Where Tang Poetry Rose and Fell

During the Tang Dynasty,the land of Shu was composed of the Ba and Shu areas,which were adjacent to present-day Hanzhong city of Shaanxi province to the north,northern Yunnan province to the south,Wushan county of Chongqing to the east,and Xichang city of Sichuan province to the west.In the nearly 300 years of rule under the dynasty,a number of poets,whether they were born or just worked and lived there for a short period of time,wrote many immortal poems,which constitute an integral part of Tang poetry.They range from Chen Zi’ang and Wang Bo of the early Tang to Li Shangyin,Wen Tingyun,and Wei Zhuang of the late Tang.The land of Shu is,therefore,the witness of the rise and fall of Tang poetry.

On the Rise and Fall of Great Britain

From the Industrial Revolution to the World War,the past three centuries have witnessed the development and rise and fall of Great Britain.Great Britain,an island country with a total area of about 240,000 square kilometers,enjoys a very important place in the world in modern history.Great Britain was the first industrial country and created the epoch-making laissez-faire capitalism and built a sun-never-set empire.It was also the leadership of the world from the middle of 18^th and to the middle of 19^th century.In retrospect to the rise of Great Britain,we can easily see that it was by relying on an innovative culture that the island country became a great power in Europe and then became the dominant empire in the world.This innovative character permeates in all kinds of culture including industrial,military,technological,politic and diplomatic.As for the main cause of Great Britain’s rise,this thesis attempts to analyze from three aspects,that is,the emancipation of mind,the advancement of military power,and the development of technology.After the World War,Great Britain began to suffer a decline in status and was reduced to a second class developed country.That is also because the conservative factor in its culture which blocks its development and the potential to innovate new things.The past years has witnessed the fall of the empire and also left us much inspiration.Take the history as a mirror,the thesis will focus on the“English disease”and influence of the World War to make an analysis on Great Britain’s fall.A conclusion of inspiration would also be included.

Analysis of a Large Grounding System and Subsequent Field Test Validation Using the Fall of Potential Method

This paper examines various aspects of the design process and subsequent field test measurements of a large and complex substation grounding system. The study and measurements show that soil layering and lead interference can have a significant impact on the appropriate test location that yields the exact substation ground impedance. Applying a specific percentage rule such as the 61.8% rule for uniform soils to obtain the true ground impedance may lead to unacceptable errors for large grounding systems. This poses significant problems when attempting to validate a design based on raw test data that are interpreted using approximate methods to evaluate substation ground impedance, and determine ground potential rise (GPR), touch and step voltages. Advanced measurement methodologies and modern software packages were used to obtain and effectively analyze fall of potential test data, compute fault current distribution, and evaluate touch and step voltages for this large substation. Fault current distribution between the grounding system and other metallic paths were computed to determine the portion of fault current discharged in the grounding system. The performance of the grounding system, including its GPR and touch and step voltages, has been accurately computed and measured, taking into account the impedance of the steel material used of the ground conductors and circulating currents within the substation grounding system.

中国共产党在百余年奋斗历程中始终保持高度的居安思危意识,从未停止对跳出历史周期率的探索和思考,并以实际行动回应这一重大考题。在毛泽东同志给出“人民监督”民主新路跳出历史周期率的第一个答案的基础上,习近平总书记给出“自我革命”从严治党跳出历史周期率的第二个答案。自我革命彰显了党始终坚守人民立场的价值取向与历史自觉,构成中国共产党区别于其他政党的显著标志,成为管党治党兴党强党的集中体现。自我革命与人民监督同心同源、情理相依,内呼外应、水乳交融,共同归向人民幸福与民族复兴,一道构成长治久安的动力源泉,协同彰显党鲜明的历史主动精神与创造精神。新时代党的自我革命应在坚持党性与人民性的统一、集中领导与党内民主的统一、思想武装与制度保障的统一、问题导向与全面深化的统一中进行到底,确保党跳出历史周期率实现长期执政,始终成为中国特色社会主义事业的坚强领导核心,永远做中国人民和中华民族的主心骨。

大国兴衰与国际秩序的历史演进

大国兴衰与国际秩序的历史演进有着非常密切的联系。尽管近代以来国际秩序的具体形态不断发生演变,大国之间的力量对比不断发生改变,但欧洲和西方大国始终是国际秩序的主导力量。二战结束之后,摆脱了殖民地或半殖民地地位的非西方大国开始登上世界舞台。冷战结束后,一批非西方大国在新一轮的经济全球化进程中乘势而起,改变了大国之间力量对比结果,促成了“世界百年未有之大变局”的到来。相比于西方大国,非西方大国不仅具有更为广阔和长远的发展优势,更有不同的历史经验和价值追求,从而为国际秩序的发展变化注入了新的活力。而中国提出“人类命运共同体”理念构想和“全球发展倡议”“全球安全倡议”“全球文明倡议”,更是为超越当今世界所面临的挑战和困局,构建更为公正、合理的国际秩序,提供了令人鼓舞的发展目标和前景。

民初新式知识分子重释“天下兴亡匹夫有责”论

民初一些知识分子以报刊为阵地大声疾呼并努力诠释“天下兴亡匹夫有责”。他们赋予此一流行话语以时代新义,其中“天下”与“国家”由异趋同聚合为近代共和国,而“匹夫”则由传统臣民一跃而为近代国民。“天下”与“匹夫”的关系遂转变为国家与国民的新关系。而近代语境下的“匹夫有责”的“责”则凸显为自觉弘扬中华民族传统优秀道义精神,视其为天赋人权精神中应有之义,具体外现为职责、责任、良心与诚信等道德素养,蕴含着浓郁的政治文化与社会文化等价值诉求。这从一个侧面透露出“天下兴亡匹夫有责”渐成中国近代爱国主义的代名词。

大党“破题之钥”:以全过程人民民主健全全面从严治党体系

如何跳出治乱兴衰历史周期率,破解大党独有难题,是中国共产党坚持探索的重要问题,也是关系民族复兴大业的关键所在。基于对大党独有难题理论意蕴的把握,可以发现,全过程人民民主和全面从严治党是在实践中形成的跳出历史周期率的“两个答案”:全面从严治党具有从严以尚贤、任贤而兴民、民主护安邦的思想基础,并蕴含在其全面性、严格性和治理性的内在特质之中;而全过程人民民主既为全面从严治党提供了实践标尺,同时其发展也需要以全面从严治党作为保障。未来应通过发展维护党的全面领导的有效体制机制,探索人民群众监督与党内监督有机结合的有效方式,拓宽全面从严治党“靠人民”的有效渠道,进一步以全过程人民民主健全全面从严治党体系,将中国共产党的执政优势转化为实现中华民族伟大复兴的强大动能。

跳出“革命的悖论”和历史周期率——论马克思主义革命党的内涵、使命与价值

在人类过往的政治实践中,“革命的悖论”与历史周期率犹如无形之手作用其中,无数政治集团未能逃脱从建政到执政再到丢失政权的命运。与一般政党将执掌政权作为自己最主要的政治目标不同,马克思主义革命党并非“一次革命论”者,不止步于夺取政权的政治革命胜利,还有更宏伟的社会革命理想以及始终贯穿其中的党的自我革命。基于“革命之后还有革命”的社会革命使命和党自身的革命性锻造,中国共产党努力实现对过往一切政治组织的超越和自我超越,跳出“革命的悖论”和历史周期率成为一种理论和现实的必然。

战略科技力量与大国兴衰的逻辑——以二战后美国科技博弈为例

研究战略科技力量如何影响大国兴衰及其核心逻辑,对于维护国家主权、安全与发展利益具有重大的意义。战略科技力量推动大国力量消长,加剧大国安全困境,打破大国内部权力均衡。基于对美苏、美日、美中科技博弈的历史与现实案例的考察可见,美国通过科技博弈巩固了霸权,延缓了霸权的衰落,但同时也对自身带来科技伦理风险、技术治理难题等挑战。战略科技力量博弈改变大国兴衰的内在规律,一些大国因此更深地陷入美国科技霸权体系,甚至有可能跌落成为次要国家。大国战略科技力量博弈是关乎综合国力、政治制度、科技联盟与创新模式的全方位博弈,竞争制胜需要具备强大的国家综合国力、良好的政策弹性与制度优势、科技“盟友”支持及灵活的科技创新模式。

宋竖旗从“牝脏固木”辨析论治阳痿

宋竖旗主任在中医传统经典基础上提出“牝脏固木”理论,认为阳痿主要病机为肝郁气逆、痰湿困阻、肾精受损。通过强健肺、脾、肾三牝脏,固摄精气津液,实现肝升肺降、痰湿燥化、宗筋得用。宋主任亦尤其注重形神同调,在服药调形体的同时,亦常常宣诫患者培养良好习惯,避免情志紧绷,静坐以清净凝心、恬淡心境,减少内伤情志对本病的危害。又善在上述治疗基础上加入虫类药以搜经剔络,引药入宗筋,辛香走窜,更能推荣宗筋为用。文末以病案一则,进一步展现宋主任用药经验心得。

从“土枢四象”探析王海强教授治疗慢性萎缩性胃炎经验

黄元御认为“土枢四象”与“肝升肺降”是保持人体气机正常运行的关键。现基于该理论,试以中医理论阐述慢性萎缩性胃炎(CAG)的发病机制与治疗方法,为临床治疗CAG提供更多思路。王海强教授认为CAG核心病机为中土亏虚,水湿困阻,临床表现由脾胃失和,肝气不畅,肺气不通,气机壅塞中土所致。中土如轴,肝肺如轮,轮运轴转,轴运轮灵,故治疗CAG应注重调畅中土,斡旋气机流转,肝肺升降相得则诸症自除。王海强教授调畅中土气机善用半夏泻心汤,升举肝木善用达郁汤,沉降肺金善用下气汤。

古代农业帝国兴衰周期律ABM仿真研究——国家兴衰动力学的模型探索

在农业帝国时期,周期律曾经长期地存在,呈现稳健的历史规律。关于导致这种规律的动力学机制,学术界一直好奇、但长期缺乏有效的方法。尽管存在很多理论分析,但难以被数学、模型支撑。基于历史数据的定量分析具有静态性,无法呈现动态演化全过程,本文使用智能体仿真模拟(ABM)方法,以弥补上述方法的不足。秉承历史唯物主义,从科学模型与实证验证角度,揭示此宏观系统规律背后的微观与宏观动力学机制,并通过模拟联通两个层面。基于虎(帝国敌人)、狼(统治阶级)、羊(农民阶级)、草(农业土地)四类智能体,构建国家(社会)有机体的静态系统结构。通过机制设计,赋予智能体自主的行动、互动的能力,实时记录宏观系统层面的状态结果。结果表明,ABM模拟的最优解,能够高度拟合、全程反演从秦汉到明清2132年的国家兴衰大历史轨迹。基于ABM的国家兴衰动力学模型,在当代仍然有镜鉴价值,在国家治理现代化、大国竞争对手预测、特定地区态势预测方面,具有重要应用价值。

水位升降和潮汐水位作用下围堰的安全稳定性

为了分析水位升降和潮汐水位作用下滨海区域围堰的安全稳定性,基于厦门市集美岛车站工程实例,应用Plaxis有限元程序的非饱和土渗流理论,采用有限元强度折减法,进行不同水位升降速度及潮汐水位循环作用下围堰的稳定性分析,通过围堰的安全系数变化曲线分析水位变化对围堰稳定性影响的机理。结果表明:围堰安全系数在水位升高时减小,水位上升速度越快,围堰安全系数减小速率越大;水位下降时存在临界水位降速,临界水位降速为1.0 m·d^(-1),当水位下降速度超过临界水位降速时,围堰安全系数先减小后增大,当水位下降速度小于临界水位降速时,围堰安全系数逐渐增大;围堰安全系数在落潮时增大,在涨潮时减小,潮汐振幅越大,围堰安全系数增值越大,随着循环次数的增加,相邻两次循环间围堰安全系数增量逐渐减小并趋于稳定。
