Most were peasants, largely illiterate, and with no sense of an Italian identity as their ancestral home had only been liberated from centuries of foreign rule in 1861. This study utilizes primary and secondary documents, as well as archival sources and interviews to determine the role of sport in the transition to an Italian identity, and then an American identity within the assimilation process. Second generation youth adopted American sport forms, and some became national heroes in contrast to the stereotype of Italian gangsters. By the 1950s Italians had become icons of popular culture, yet negative stereotypes persisted and assimilation remained fragmented.展开更多

In this paper, a definition of acceleration is given in spacetime language and the inertial reference frame is also settled. With a discussion of the geodesic equations of motion, the differential form of the general MФller transformation at arbitrary direction is presented.展开更多

Three atoms A, B, and C interact isolatedly with their own Jaynes-Cummings cavities a, b, and c. Aa system is prepared entangled with Bb and Cc, however, their mutual isolations forbid Aa interacting with system Bb and Cc. It is the same for system Bb and Cc. We show entanglement evolution of different three-qubit systems ABC, abc, Abc, and aBC and find entanglement sudden death effect.展开更多

An 18-week experiment was carried out incorporating the C-R activities into a Comprehensive English Course. A writing task and semi-structured interviews were administered after the experiment. Results indicated that (1) the frequency and accuracy of verb patterns used by Experimental Group (EG) were higher than those in the Control Group (CG); (2) C-R activities promoted the use of the students’ reference material and their ability to notice gaps in meaning, enhanced their interest and confidence in learning English, and guided their personal learning of vocabulary; (3) the EG generally liked the activities.展开更多
