The authors reach the conclusion that mastering the FL within the educational system of the Russian Federation is in compliance with the concept of LL, yet the requirements for and the results of mastering the discipline are not yet consistent and progressive enough
NEW OPPORTUNITIES OF BIOPHYSICAL MONITORING IN HIGH AND MIDDLE LATITUDES FOR THE EVALUATION OF THE IMPACT OF GEOMAGNETIC DISTURBANCE ON HUMAN HEALTH
No full textThis article describes the principles of multi-latitude monitoring ‘Heliomed-2’ conducted for obtaining new data on the impact of space weather on human health. The article presents the results of synchronous monitoring of the cardiovascular system reaction assessment and psycho-emotional state of healthy volunteers to the changes in the geomagnetic disturbance in high (Tixie settlement and the city of Yakutsk) and middle (city of Saratov) latitudes. All the examined groups exhibited the effect of synchronization of ventricular myocardial repolarization processes (according to the data on the symmetry coefficient of the T wave of the electrocardiogram) and geomagnetic disturbance (according to the Kpindex); the synchronization of reactive anxiety and geomagnetic disturbance was also revealed. It has been established that the group cardiac sensitivity and psychological sensitivity to geomagnetic disturbances coincide in the same group of volunteers, regardless of breadth of residence
PECULIAR FEATURES OF FORMING A REGIONAL INNOVATION SYSTEM IN THE CHUVASH REPUBLIC BY THE EXAMPLE OF THE ELECTROTECHNICAL CLUSTER
Get PDFFormation of a regional innovation system in the Chuvash Republic today is one of the most important objectives of the economic development. However, the process encounters great difficulties.

A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF CONCEPTUAL METAPHOR OF “HEAD” IN FERDOWSI’S SHAHNAMEH, NIZAMI’S KHOSROW & SHIRIN AND ODES OF SHAMS
Get PDFContrary to the traditional rhetoricians who considered metaphor to be limited to literary text used as a mean for decoration of the speech, contemporary theoreticians see metaphor as a linguistic-conceptual mean that man uses it for knowing the surrounding phenomena. According to this theory, many of the most fundamental abstract notions such as time, quantity, cause, goal and etc, become understandable for man by the assistance of metaphor. The present study uses a descriptive-analytic method to comparatively assay the conceptualizations of the organ-word “head” in Ferdowsi’s Shahnameh, Odes of Shams and Nizami’s Khosrow & Shirin, from a cognitive perspective. This essay seeks to show the extent to which these poets have taken advantage of this key word in objectification of abstract concepts by means of conceptual metaphor. The research results show that the aforementioned poets despite their being under the influence of literary and linguistic traditions and the existing cultural roots sometimes have made use of the metaphors of similarity, they have been interested in a special group of abstract notions given the differences in thought and type of worldview and also their literary style and endeavored to conceptualize it by the aid of the organ-word of “head”

Levels in Factor Analysis of External Environment in Rural Production
Get PDFThe paper shows the calculations justifying the influence of external environment on the agrarian production that is affected by a large number of factors. A methodological approach that differentiates this aggregate by a combination of factor elements at the global, national, regional and industry levels is presented. This approach is positioned as hierarchical, subordinating, and defined by the term multi-levelness. The composition of the factor elements of each of these levels is represented by the parameters that are co-ordinated towards each other, reflecting a different type of connection between them, characterized by their location in the same row, without reflecting the hierarchy. The groups of factor elements are highlighted: environmental, social, political, legal, technological, natural, environmental, informational. The idea of studying the influence of the external environment on agricultural production has been implemented, combining the definition of the degree of influence by hierarchical levels of influence, as well as on the coordinating groups of factor elements in each level. On this basis, territorial differences in the degree of influence of the external environment on the state and trends of agriculture in the economic regions of the Russian Federation have been revealed
