Just as its name implies that it is a place where the pathogenic wind converges. So, the point is regarded as an important point to dispel wind since it has the functions of clearing heat and brightening the eye, dispelling wind and inducing resuscitation.展开更多

The present research is a conceptual study. The data were collected to analyze the entrepreneurship theories in Saudi Arabia＇s context. The data related to entrepreneurship spirit, perception of society towards entrepreneurship, and other macroeconomic indicators are collected from different research journals, websites of different corporate houses, and government sources to analyze the social entrepreneurship theories, such as failure thesis, interdependence theories, welfare state theory, supply-side theory, entrepreneurship education, etc.. The theoretical hypothesis of interdependence theory, entrepreneurship spirit, and general education and the theoretical analysis of this paper in light of Saudi Arabia are in line with the theory. But the hypothesis generated out of failure thesis theory, welfare state theory, entrepreneurship education, and individualistic and collective society culture is not in line with these theories.展开更多

Especially establishing reserves in key universities is the key step of new mode, which is the primary mode of sports team at high level in ordinary universities. To research the situation of key sports team construction at high level, from the degree of competitive sports sustainable development, we research and analyze the cultivation mode of Chinese sports talents and influence factors, aiming at building a talents cultivation mode suitable for Chinese professional competitive sports development and exploring the sustainable way for athletes sports in theory.展开更多

EGP teaching in the de- pendent colleges takes key and ordinary universities as models; however, there is a huge gap of students＇ English level between in the in- dependent colleges and in key and ordinary universities. For the characteristics of teaching in language as the model in the independent colleges, it is important to define how to carry out EGP and ESP. EGP is the platform of ESP. ESP designing and implementing must be linked with EGP, and based on the talent-training goal as the core.展开更多

We used three methods to investigate the per capita disposable income elasticity of consumption. These are Ordinary Least Squares, Two Stage Ordinary Least Squares with instrument variable and Non-Linear Least Squares with instrument variable for to estimate the specifications. The results indicate that nearly 90% of the consumers in Turkey use the rule of thumb of current disposable income to determine the current consumption. The estimates for the Ghali and Renaud （1971） specifications are consistent by the Rao （2005） concerning the income elasticity of consumption parameter.展开更多
