It can be regarded as a special combination of social groups -- the lifestyle of religious believers. At the same time, it has one side consistent with secular life style. In 1898, the construction of the Middle East Railway opened a huge “social revolution” for Harbin, China, which rapidly rose from a traditional natural village to a modern metropolis in Northeast Asia within a short period of one or two decades. As the city opened its own port for trade, a large number of immigrants from Russia, Japan, the United States, France, Britain, Germany and other countries poured into the city. The Middle East Railway became the carrier of migration of immigrants, and immigrants became the media for the spread of religious beliefs. Foreign religions were brought to Harbin, which formed a special and main content of Harbin life style

According to the conclusions drawn in this article, a series of theoretical and practical implications were generated, which guided both academic researchers and practitioners in short-video-related industries. At the same time, the limitations of this article and the suggestions for future researchers were also discussed simply and clearly in relevant sections
Silk Metaphors in Chinese Characters
Get PDFWithin the framework of cognitive linguistics, the research introduces the image-based feature of Chinese characters and explores metaphor motivations behind Chinese characters containing images of silk. By studying the existing earliest constructions of those characters and analyzing the corresponding form-meaning connections, three conceptual metaphors are put forward, namely, “LINK IS SILK”; “END IS KNOT”, and “THOUGHT IS SILK”. There are altogether seven characters with the “LINK IS SILK” motivation, and their character meanings form a coherent system in terms of different aspects of “LINK”. The metaphor “END IS KNOT” seems to be consistent with the metaphor “LINK IS SILK” and only one character is found motivated by the former. The metaphor “THOUGHT IS SILK” is reflected in the sound form and meaning connection of the Chinese character “思”，and the sound form is connected with the silk image. All the three metaphors are also reflected in Chinese words and literature, which shows the consistency of Chinese thought patterns. Comparison study with English reveals the three silk metaphors are probably specific to the Chinese language and culture.
“Problems” and “Answers” Faced by the Grassroots Governance of the CPC in Sudden Public Security Incidents: Thinking on the Prevention and Control of the COVID-19
Get PDFGrass roots governance is the basic unit of the national governance system. The level and effectiveness of grass-roots governance are closely related to the vital interests of the people. In COVID-19 prevention and control, the grass-roots level is in the “front line” of epidemic prevention and control, which has played a positive role in the phased victory of the COVID-19 prevention and control war. However, it also exposes the difficulties of human resources, serious deficiencies in the storage, supply and development of grass-roots risk management materials, and the lack of a mature grass-roots risk management mechanism. Therefore, we should strengthen the construction of the CPC’s grass-roots risk management team from the two aspects of “quality” and “quantity”, adjusts the supply of grass-roots risk management materials from the two perspectives of “open source” and “cost reduction”, and build a grass-roots risk management system from the two aspects of “long-term” and “effectiveness”. Build an effective emergency response mechanism for grass-roots organizations to respond to major public security incidents, and increase human resources, material support and mechanism assistance, so as to effectively improve the governance level of grass-roots organizations of the CPC to respond to major public security incidents and promote the modernization of grass-roots governance
Governmental Agencies and Reintegration of Returnees in Nigeria: Strategies of Recovery
Get PDFThe study examined the strategies put in place by the governmental agencies for the reintegration of Nigerian returnees from Libya. Primary and secondary data were utilized for the study. Primary data were collected through the administration of questionnaires and interviews. The study population (10,369) comprised the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA, 34), National Agency against Trafficking in Persons and other related crime (NAPTIP, 108), International Organisation for Migration (IOM, 34), Nigeria in Diaspora Commission (NiDCOM, 15) and Nigeria returnees (10,180) from Libya. The sample for the study was made up of 399 respondents. The distribution is as follows: NEMA (17), NAPTIP (54), IOM (16), NiDCOM (15), and returnees (297). Secondary data will be obtained from decision extracts of the agencies on matters relating to the subject matter, conciliation meetings, and internet sources. Data collected were analysed using frequency, distribution, percentage, and Chi-square. The study showed that vocational training strategies (x2= 3.11); loan facilities for the returned migrants ( x2= 3.32); provision for psychological strategies for the returnees (x2 = 3.22) are some of the strategies available which are put in place by governmental agencies for the reintegration of the returnees. Furthermore, the result of the Chi square analysis showed that the x2 cal (9.2) is greater than x2tab (5.99), hence, the rejection of the null hypothesis. Hence, the study found a significant relationship between governmental agencies’ strategies and returnees’ reintegration. The study concluded that governmental agencies strategies have effect on the reintegration the returnees
L’image des femmes chastes dans l’œuvre hagiographique d’Alfonso Vagnoni
Get PDFEn 1629, dans son œuvre hagiographique en chinois, Alfonso Vagnoni (c.1568-c.1640) présenta vingt-quatre vies des saintes chrétiennes dont le point commun principal est la chasteté. C’était la première fois que les histoires des « femmes exemplaires » du monde occidental de l’époque furent introduites en Chine de façon aussi importante. Sous la plume de Vagnoni, les femmes chastes occidentales reprenaient totalement les critères essentiels de la sainteté féminine chrétienne, en même temps, certains caractères correspondaient parfaitement au contexte social et culturel chinois de la dynastie des Ming. Cependant, la Chine ancienne et l’Europe du XVIIe siècle avaient des interprétations bien différentes de la chasteté. Bien que l’influence de cette collection hagiographique fût assez limitée, cette œuvre reflète, dans une certaine mesure, la communication interculturelle aux XVIe et XVIIe siècles entre la Chine et l’Occident.
