Cross-cultural Comparative Analyses of Media Texts: A Corpus-based Study of Articles About Climate Change from Five English Newspapers

全球气候变暖问题相比较而言难以被公众直接感知，大众媒体将相关信息传递给公众，起着桥梁纽带作用。进入21世纪，全球气候变暖问题持续升温，引起国际社会的普遍关注。各国科学界和政界都积极推动，力图提高公众的参与意识，共同应对全球气候变化带来的挑战。虽然气候变化可以被科学家和科技专业人员准确测度，但却难以被公众直接感知。不可否认，全球气候变暖问题对公众来说，往往捉摸不定、变化莫测。公众对其感触不深，认知不切。所以，科技专业人士和公众之间存在信息不对等问题。就该问题而言，媒体的作用极为特殊，它能够将相关科学信息传递给公众。作为历史最悠久的媒体，报纸扮演着桥梁纽带角色，它传递科学信息，进而改变公众的认知结...Comparatively speaking, global warming issues are less tangible to the public; therefore, mass media play an important role in transferring relevant information to the public. In the 21st century, global warming issues attract increasing attention from the international community. Scientists and governments at all levels in every country play a crucial role in enhancing the awareness of the genera...学位：文学博士院系专业：外文学院_英语语言文学学号：1202013015419

产权、环保意识和环境问题

外部性、产权不分是造成环境问题的根源;公众环保意识低、环保产品需求不足而不具有竞争优势,是企业选择污染环境而不是生产环保产品的重要原因,也是环境问题不断恶化的催化剂。为防止环境问题不断恶化,必须采取有力措施界定产权、提高公众环保意识以从根本上解决环境问题

公民纳税意识和监督意识的博弈分析

公民纳税意识淡薄、监督意识薄弱是我国税收流失的重要原因。纳税行为、逃税行为和监督行为都是纳税义务人、公民在现行税制下权衡利害、自主选择的结果,要提高纳税意识和监督意识,简单的奖励措施、惩罚措施难以奏效。本文提出实施有效奖赏制度,将激励手段和监督手段有效结合起来,同时提高公民纳税意识和监督意识

How large are the impacts of carbon-motivated border tax adjustments on China and how to mitigate them?

Shandong Social Science Planning Fund Program [12DJJJ12]; Independent Innovation Foundation of Shandong University (IIFSDU) [2012GN038]; Ministry of Education Research of Social Sciences Youth Funded Projects [13YJC790065]; National Natural Science Foundation of China [71203186, 71173170]; China Postdoctoral Science Foundation [2013M530309, 2012T50802]There have been growing clamours for carbon-motivated border tax adjustments (CBTAs) targeted at countries that do not accept the carbon emission reduction targets. Currently, China is the largest carbon emitter with large annual incremental carbon emissions and might have to face the challenge of CBTA. Therefore, it is a pressing policy challenge for the government to get prepared for mitigating the negative impacts of CBTAs on China. In this article, we compare the impacts of CBTAs across large developing economies and compare the performances of different policy options to mitigate the negative impacts. The main findings are as follows. First, CBTA would affect different economies and different sectors differently. CBTA would result in a shift of production across sectors and relocation of output from the target countries to CBTA users. Second, CBTA would contribute to world's emissions reduction, but less than expected due to carbon leakage. Finally, policy options, which could reduce the present distorting effects, would be preferred to other policy options that would add additional distorting effects to the economy. Looking ahead, the Chinese government should get prepared for mitigating the negative impacts of CBTAs because its economy could be adversely affected. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved

Fifty Years of Intercultural Rhetoric: Research Dynamic and Trends on the Basis of Statistical Analyses of the Scopus Database

纪玉华,厦门大学英文系教授、博士生导师,文学博士;张爱真,厦门大学英文系博士研究生。【中文摘要】1966年,Kaplan首先提出对比修辞学的概念。2004年,Connor提出用跨文化修辞学取代对比修辞学。之后,跨文化修辞学研究数量猛增,出现一些新特征。基于 Scopus 数据库1990年以来跨文化修辞学学术论文,从研究内容和研究方法两个维度出发,通过剖析跨文化修辞学的研究动态及演变趋势,可得出如下结论:(1)从研究状况来看,跨文化修辞学发展较快,并呈现出一些新特征,如研究人员由以英语母语作者为主转向以非英语母语作者为主;(2)从研究内容来看,跨文化修辞学开放性较强,研究领域不断拓展,具有开放性的理论分析框架已经成为当前的一个研究热点;(3)就研究方法而言,跨文化修辞学多样性较强,基于语料库的定量研究显著增多。 【Abstract】In 2004 Connor put forward the concept of intercultural rhetoric (IR) as a replacement of contrastive rhetoric (CR) proposed by Kaplan in 1966. Since then, research on IR has surged, exhibiting new characteristics. As such,this study looks into research articles in the Scopus database and analyzes the development and evolvement of IR research from the dimensions of research domains and research methods. The main findings are as follows:(1) In terms of research trends, IR research has gained rapid developmend but many problems have arisen. IR study demonstrated many new characteristics, such as the shift from native English-speaking researchers to non-native English-speaking researchers.(2) As for research domains, IR is open to many disciplines, and its theoretical framework remains a hot issue.(3) With regard to research methods, IR is strong in diversity. Recently, there has been an upsurge in studies using the methods of corpus linguistics
