摘要：
在中国的制造业已建成了门类齐全、独立完整的产业体系的今天,制造业的重要性已经被越来越多的人所认识.作为制造业后备军培养基地的理工类高职院校,其自身有着与普通高校不同的特点.在理工类院校高职英语课程中实施模块式教学模式,不仅着重语言学习的实用性,也能引起学生跨学科、将文理相结合的学习兴趣,能很好地完成英语教学.目前对模块式教学的相关研究已很多,但如何在理工类高职院校开展主题英语课程的模块式教学研究并不多.本文从分析目前高职院校教学现状开始,分析了工学背景下理工类高职院校英语教学中实施模块化教学的意义,并以"Made in China"产业发展主题为例,详细阐述了课程实施的过程、内容、教学实例、教学策略与实施效果.

摘要：

There was no significant association between the impact factor (IF) and the proportion of female editors (Pearson’s <jats:italic>r</jats:italic> = −0.095, <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.689). The United States had the highest number of editors (<jats:italic>n</jats:italic> = 459, 54.06%), followed by the United Kingdom (<jats:italic>n</jats:italic> = 98, 11.54%), Australia (<jats:italic>n</jats:italic> = 63, 7.42%), China (<jats:italic>n</jats:italic> = 29, 3.42%), Germany (<jats:italic>n</jats:italic> = 25, 2.94%), and Canada (<jats:italic>n</jats:italic> = 22, 2.59%). Notably, the majority of the included editors were from developed countries (<jats:italic>n</jats:italic> = 794, 93.52%), while editors from developing countries constituted a significantly smaller proportion (<jats:italic>n</jats:italic> = 55, 6.48%).</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion</jats:title><jats:p>Editorial boards of education journals exhibit reasonable gender diversity than other disciplines, though still fall short when considering the proportion of women in the discipline. Besides, obvious geographical disparity was observed among editorial boards of education journals. There was a notable lack of representation of researchers associated with institutions from developing countries on the editorial boards of education journals. While maintaining sufficient gender diversity, it is imperative to enhance the geographical diversity in these journals, ensuring a more equitable number of positions to individuals from these underrepresented groups.</jats:p></jats:sec>

摘要：
The reactivity-equivalent physical transformation method transforms the double heterogeneity problem into the traditional single heterogeneity problem, which has the advantages of simplicity and efficiency. However, the current reactivity-equivalent physical transformation methods mainly focus on rod-type fuel elements rather than plate-type elements. Therefore, an optimization research is conducted for the reactivity-equivalent physical transformation method applicable to fuel plates containing dispersed particles in this paper. First, this method is obtained by identifying three important geometrical parameters and fitting equivalent side lengths quickly. Next, the single plate-type fuel is build by OpenMC to verify the physical characteristics which about steady-state verification, depletion verification, temperature coefficient, key nuclide density, fission rate verification and neutron spectrum verification. Finally, the numerical validation indicates that the fitted reactivity-equivalent physical transformation method achieves high accuracy for typical plate element dispersed particle fuel problems.

摘要：
Centering on the precarious bodies that are diseased or faced with health problems in Danticat's oeuvre, this article from a biopolitical perspective examines how the malfunction of power exacerbates the health condition of individuals, and how those precarious bodies both expose the existing problems in Haiti's health management and provide enlightenment to its improvement. This article argues that external causes of the diseased or health-threatened bodies in Danticat's writing can be attributed to the abuse, misuse, or absence of authoritative power in health management, including the state's inefficiency in managing people's health and security, the neglect in environmental protection, and the authorities' abuse of medical power, which demonstrate Danticat's denunciation of the Haitian authoritative power's inaction in health management and her appeals for urgent measures to be taken to improve people's health. This article contributes to the discussions surrounding the disease narrative and health issues in Danticat's writing, enhances people's understanding of Haitian health issues from a non-Euro-American-centric lens, and enriches the research on biopolitical theories of health.

摘要：
Visuals in environmental communication can potentially shape the public perception of environmental issues. They are frequently used in corporate communication in sustainability reports to construct environmentally responsible corporate images. This study analyzes the images used in the sections addressing climate change in the sustainability reports of an international petroleum mega-business from 2018 to 2022. Based on the theoretical framework of ecolinguistics and multimodal critical discourse analysis, the present study investigates how the motifs constructed in the reports' visual narratives legitimize the energy industry with various discursive strategies in relation to the underlying anthropocentric ecosophy. Four main motifs in the visual narratives are identified, including uniformed employees, the high-tech (clear) energy industry, unspoiled nature, and public signage with evaluative meanings. These motifs are represented through the discursive strategies of salience, erasure, and evaluation, which are operationalized through the praxis of collectivization, individualization, decontextualization, and aestheticization. The real causes and impacts of climate change are discursively erased, and the energy-exploiting and environmentally polluting industry is techno-optimistically aestheticized and romanticized in tackling climate change and actively contributing to idyllic and unspoiled nature. The present research is hoped to shed light on the analyses of corporate environmental communication in the current era where ecology is increasingly valued, and it may also help raise viewers' critical awareness of institutional ecological discourses.

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title>
<jats:p>Employing the Complex Dynamic Systems Theory (CDST) as a theoretical framework, this study explores the interconnectedness of cognitive and affective components within the Willingness to Communicate (WTC) among eight undergraduate students in a university classroom in China. The eight students were divided into four pairs, engaging in a communication task in English, followed by self-ratings of WTC using software and stimulated recall interviews. Interconnectedness was examined on a per-second basis. Analysis of these interconnected interactions revealed five patterns across three states of WTC. Among the rising, stable, and declining states of WTC, cognitive issues (e.g., discrepancy in viewpoints, vocabulary retrieval, self-monitoring) dynamically interacted with affective instances (e.g., anger, excitement, and emotional dependence on the partner), influencing the pattern of interconnectedness. The findings suggest that interconnectedness in WTC exhibits reciprocal interaction and nonlinearity. Speculation within these intricate cognitive-affective interactions suggests that affective components may have a greater influence on determining the level of L2 WTC. These insights highlight the dynamic interplay between WTC components and the system as a whole, revealing their uneven influence on the WTC system.</jats:p>
