新课程下的语文教学初探

实施语文新课程教学,首先要注重培养良好的语文学习习惯。语文能力的发展是跟良好的习惯的养成紧密联系的,学生一旦养盛了良好的习惯,就变被动为主动,变依赖为独立,进入自主学习境界。教师要关注学生的自主探究和合作探究,促使他们自己去获得知识,发展能力,让学生在探究性学习中学有所思,思有所疑,疑有所问。     

Habermas and Taylor on Religious Reasoning in a Liberal Democracy

Abstract

This article compares Habermas’s and Taylor’s approach to the role of religious language in a liberal democracy. It shows that the difference in their approach is not simply in their theories of religious language. The contrast lies deeper, in their incompatible moral theories: Habermas’s universal discourse ethics vs Taylor’s communitarian substantive ethics. I also explore William Rehg’s defence of discourse ethics by conceding that it is based on a metavalue of rational consensus. However, I argue that Habermas’s and Rehg’s discourse ethics and translation proviso are untenable. While Taylor rightly argues that there is no reason to exclude religious reason from the formal political sphere, his proposed fusion of horizons to generate a new hybrid framework is also problematic. I suggest that Taylor’s historical hermeneutics should be extended to include the narrative approach to ethical deliberation as conducive to mutual experiential understanding, and hence to achieving a fusion of horizons of the diverse worlds of citizens in a liberal democracy.

南诏时期洱海地区的白蛮语地名考释

白蛮语地名在南诏时期行政区划中出现频率较高,这些地方往往在政治、军事和经济上占有重要地位,在历来的南诏史研究中受到较多的关注。本文在前人研究基础上,运用藏缅语材料对白蛮语地名的含义作了考释,认为从总体上看其语源呈多样化,这与历史上该地的民族社会历史变迁息息相关。     

Cutmarks and hominid handedness

Handedness in humans has been linked to brain lateralization and the evolution of language, but recent data on chimpanzee tool use suggest that the lateralization of hand and brain function may have instead preceded the time when the hominid and panid lineages split. The hominid paleontological and archaeological records are two sources for testing this hypothesis by helping to establish the antiquity of hominid handedness. As such, several methods have been proposed for identifying traces of hominid handedness in those records. Included among those methods is using the orientation of stone tool cutmarks on ungulate limb bone fragments. Here we report on an experiment created to test the accuracy and efficacy of one such method proposed by Bromage and his colleagues [Bromage, T.G., Boyde, A., 1984. Microscopic criteria for the determination of directionality of cutmarks on bone. American Journal of Physical Anthropology 65, 359–366; Bromage, T.G., Bermudez de Castro, J.M., Jalvo, Y.F., 1991. The SEM in taphonomic research and its application to studies of cutmarks generally and the determination of handedness specifically. Anthropologie 29, 163–169]. Our data indicate that the methodology proposed by Bromage and colleagues can yield accurate results in an experimental setting. However, considering the complexity of uncontrolled (i.e., non-experimental) human butchery, we question the method's efficacy for investigating the antiquity of human handedness as potentially recorded in the zooarchaeological record. Our results highlight the limitations of current approaches, but it is hoped that they will also stimulate new, more productive techniques that use the archaeological record to discern the development of human handedness and its evolutionary significance.     

Patterns of Participation and Representation in a Regional Water Collaboration

Regional collaboration has become a popular means to manage shared resources and address cross-jurisdictional boundary issues. The question of who participates in the process, who directly affects decisions, and who benefits from those decisions is critical for understanding the broader value created by regional collaborations. We apply a variety of text mining techniques to meeting minutes to measure how stakeholder participation evolved over nine years of an Integrated Regional Water Management collaboration. We observe that a diverse set of organizations representing differing interests participated to some extent in the process. However, a minority of organizations attended regularly, while most attended sporadically and/or only attended outreach events. Verbs used to describe interaction varied across meeting types, displaying egalitarian patterns of interaction among participants in core leadership meetings and more one-way interaction among attendees of outreach meetings. We then estimate whether participation affects the likelihood of receiving funding through the IRWM program. Participants who attended the core group meetings most regularly were most likely to receive funding for their projects, suggesting that uneven patterns of participation matter for the substantive value created by the collaboration.     

Major and Minor Turkic Language Islands in Iran with a Special Focus on Khalaj

This contribution offers a presentation of Turkic languages in Iran with special focus on Khalaj, a non-Oghuzic language spoken in the Markazī province. Attention is paid to features induced by contact with Iranian languages in particular with regard to the anaphoric pronominal stem bilä-, necessity constructions and the multifunctionality of ki/ke, providing new data on Khalaj and offering significant insights for further research.     

On the origins of the name for the ‘Black Sea’

The name ‘Black Sea’ is widely attributed to the Anatolian Turks, due to their habit of referring to the South as ‘white’ and North as ‘black’. However, the appellation first appeared in a Hungarian document and later in sources originating further to the North, including Icelandic sagas and other Nordic narratives. The Turks themselves have a small and secondary role in using and spreading the name. Some scholars have suggested that the Cumans, a Turkic people once occupying regions to the North of the Black Sea, are the likely source. However, in medieval times Khazarian traditions seem to have used the term ‘Black Sea’ as well as ‘Great Sea’, though the relationships between the two terms require clarification. This essay seeks to reconcile these two traditions, and offers a conjectural Bulgar source for the Black Sea denomination.     

由“以数为纪”看《洪范》的性质与年代

“以数为纪”是口头语言程式。以“以数为纪”为文体特征的《洪范》是保存在口头语言中的政治纲领,它经历了一个从简单到复杂、从分散到集中、从彼此独立到互相联系、最后形成一个整体的较为漫长的发展过程。夏、商、周初是先秦“口头传统”的兴盛时期,因而《洪范》应是夏商时代的作品。
