Till nowmany scholars,both home and abroad,have been studying fuzziness from many aspects. In this paper,the author tries to analyze fuzzy beauty in the translation of the great literary work Outlaws of the Marsh,which is one of the four great classical works in China. The author makes comparison of the fuzzy beauty between the source language and the target language from the angle of nicknames. Through analysis,the author concludes that to some degree,the nicknames in translated work lose some fuzzy beauty,which is inevitable. As a result,translators should pay attention to the fuzzy beauty in different languages,and approach perfect translation gradually.展开更多

To explore the life history strategy of the species with reference to environmental physical stress, the biomass allocations to different plant components and some related morphological parameters were examined along an elevational gradient within a salt marsh. Authors found that S. mariqueter performed best at medium elevation within the marsh, with relatively high density of shoot and individual ramet dry mass. Biomass allocation to corm was the highest at low elevations, and the least at high elevations, suggesting that a conservative strategy was adopted by the species to cope with the harsh physical conditions at the low elevation. The investment in rhizome decreased from low to high elevations, while the proportion of inflorescence mass increased, indicating that during the life history, the species shifts from predominant asexual reproduction to predominant sexual reproduction. This may be favourable for the species to colonize larger area, and to spread and persist at a meta_population level. Correlation analyses showed that sexual reproduction was inversely related to growth and asexual reproduction. However, it is difficult to determine the relationship between asexual reproduction and growth possibly because of the varied function of the corms of the species in different life history stages.展开更多
