Recent research has emphasized that attitude is key to language learners’learning outcomes.More specifically,language learners’feelings about languages and language learning may affect their study behavior and willingness to engage with a second or foreign language.Few studies on language attitudes have been conducted with ethnic minority groups in China.As such,influencing factors(e.g.,gender,language proficiency)have not gained sufficient attention.The present study aims to explore language attitudes,especially towards multilingualism,among members of the Li minority group in Hainan,China.First,we conceptualized and validated a questionnaire on attitudes towards multilingualism.Exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis verified the survey’s validity.Then,we examined how selected sociodemographic variables(e.g.,gender and language proficiency)influenced students’attitudes towards multilingualism.Hierarchical regression was performed to ascertain the contribution of each predictor variable to learners’attitudes towards multilingualism.Results revealed no significant relationship between gender and language attitudes but found a significant impact of students’language proficiency level on their attitudes towards multilingualism.Implications for minority students’multilingual learning were discussed based on the findings.

Teaching Chinese to Ethnic Minority Students in Hong Kong:A Systematic Review

This paper presents a systematic review of research on Chinese as a Second Language(CSL)education for ethnic minority students in Hong Kong SAR.Using three databases and screening with specific inclusion and exclusion criteria,the study selected 38 empirical studies published in English-language peer-reviewed journals.We find that there has been a surge of publications in Hong Kong in the past decade(2010–2020),and they are mostly authored by scholars from three universities in Hong Kong.Most of the research took a phenomenological approach,using interviews as the main data collection method and focusing on underprivileged South Asian students in secondary schools.The thematic analysis showed that Hong Kong’s CSL adopted a poststructuralist paradigm for understanding and revealing social inequalities surrounding Chinese language education for ethnic minority students.The study concludes that Hong Kong must decolonise its education system to genuinely support ethnic minority students to achieve educational equality and social justice.

Learn a rich foreign language research on teaching voice Chinese language of minority

Foreign teaching and Chinese language teaching of minority are two different forms of teaching in nature, both the nature and the system of teaching are different, but in the teaching objectives, content, principles, methods, and therefore there are many similarities, so two studies outcomes can learn from each other. In this paper, with voice teaching as an example, we will talk about foreign language studies in ethnic minority Chinese Teaching. I think, in the teaching program design, the teaching Chinese minorities can learn from the simplified idea of teaching phonological Mr. Zhao Jin ruing, which is proposed foreign teaching Chinese, to simplify Voice teaching. In teaching principles, we should emphasize specific principles, instructional design based on students＇ different characteristics. In the teaching content, teaching should not only pay attention phonetic syllables within the system, but also more emphasis on syllables voice level teaching, especially teaching speech flow.

＂Going to the Land of Barbarians＂： Nation, Ethnicity, and the Female Body in Late Qing and Republican Travel Writing on the Yunnan-Burma Borderlands

This paper studies several travel accounts featuring transcultural and transnational experiences in the Yunnan-Burma borderlands where the British, Chinese, French and various indigenous peoples encountered each other, including Yangwentun xiaoyin, an anonymous ＂ballad＂ circulated in late Qing and Republican Yunnan, Ai Wu＇s （1904-92） early fiction based upon his wanderings in Yunnan and Burma from 1925 to 1931, and Xiao Qian＇s （1910-99） utopian ＂travelogue＂ featuring a European couple＇s futuristic travel to the area. These writings illustrate the intersection of issues of nation, ethnicity, and gender, which are intertwined with the discourse of barbarism： On the one hand, their authors often express anxiety over threats to China＇s dominance in this area; on the other, frequently resorting to the discourse of barbarism, these accounts, tinged with Sino-centrism, often exoticize and barbarize other cultures, particularly indigenous groups. The eroticized and racialized female body constitutes a privileged site of representation in these writings： On the one hand, travel writings often make a distinction between Han Chinese women and indigenous women, treating the latter as exotic, seductive, dangerous, and/or primitive; on the other hand, as the need to build a strong, modernized multi-ethnic nation became increasingly urgent, Republican authors began to ＂universalize＂ the female body, Chinese or indigenous, treating both as threatened and exploited by the Western ＂newcomer,＂ and thus are （potential） allies sharing a nationalist, anti-imperialist cause.

基于生态安全格局的云南世居民族所在地生态韧性评价研究

云南世居民族所在地是基于传统生态智慧世代延续,以自然系统与社会系统相互嵌套为特点的自然–文化遗产,而现代性和社会经济的快速发展使得世居民族所在地不断被蚕食和消解.研究基于韧性理念,利用多源数据,从稳定性、适宜性、冗余度、多样性4个层面构建云南世居民族所在地生态安全格局和生态韧性耦合框架,对藏、彝、傣族所在地2000—2020年生态韧性进行评价研究.结果表明,近20 a来,世居民族所在地总体生态韧性水平为中等,呈现逐年降低的趋势.高水平韧性区多分布于林地,存在连续但细碎化的分布特征.低水平生态韧性多分布于道路缓冲区2 km以内,路网的社会扰动内涵很大程度上影响生态韧性强度.20 a来平均生态韧性指数傣族所在地(0.6420)>彝族所在地(0.5602)>藏族所在地(0.5344).影响各世居民族所在地生态韧性的原因存在差异,地质灾害防护格局和水生环境安全格局是影响生态韧性的主要因素.

基于统计数据的欧洲40年来语言冲突研究

欧洲是一个语言多样性与语言冲突长期并存的地区。本文基于现有欧洲抗议、冲突、犯罪等事件记录数据库,结合国家民族异质化指数等数据,对欧洲1980年以来的语言冲突事件进行了全景式扫描和重点案例分析。在如今45个欧洲国家中,有27个发生过语言方面的冲突,39个发生过语言或民族冲突,涉及41种语言。但此类冲突数量并不突出,绝大多数仅占各国冲突总数的1%~6%,且语言冲突数量远低于民族冲突数量。语言冲突数量前十的国家大部分处于中东欧地区,参与方主要是民众和政党,涉及行政、教育、司法等方面的诉求,冲突方式大都是温和的抗议,在个别地区也会发生暴力冲突。随着欧洲民众和政府对语言超级多样性更为宽容的态度,语言冲突可能会朝着泛化和弱化的方向发展,即大范围、低烈度持续存在,对未来的研究和语言管理提出了新的课题。
