The results of the study show that, in the first three and half terms, college English teachers can basically develop students' competence in listening, speaking, reading and writing under the guidance of College English Curriculum Requirements (2004), and the influence of CET-4 on College English teaching is not very great; that, in test preparation classes, the skills trained, activities conducted and materials used are solely consistent with those required in CET-4 and the normal teaching is broken; that the nature of the impact of CET-4 on a variety of aspects of College English teaching and learning is both positive and negative, but there are more positive than negative effects; that CET-4 can, to some degree, promote the teaching and learning of College English; and that, according to the implementation of College English Curriculum Requirements (2004) and CET reform, there is an obvious increase in the time spent on listening, speaking, reading and writing in classes, especially listening and speaking.展开更多

A generalized Butler-Volmer relationship for the electrode reaction on the surface of a curved electrode is derived,which takes account of the effects of local stress and the radius of mean curvature. From this relationship, the overpotential is found to be proportional to hydrostatic stress and the activation volume under the condition of open circuit. The conditions for the deposition of the material made solely from solute atoms and the formation of surface pits and porous structures are obtained,using the generalized Butler-Volmer relationship.展开更多
