一、New criticism二、Formalism三、Reader-response theoryWhat Do You Think?At its most basic level, reader response criticism considers readers' reactions to literature as vital to interpreting the meaning of the text. However, reader-response criticism can take a number of different approaches. A critic deploying reader-response theory can use a psychoanalytic lens, a feminists lens, or even a structuralist lens. What these different lenses have in common when using a reader response approach is they maintain "...that what a text is cannot be separated from what it does" (Tyson 154).Tyson explains that "...reader-response theorists share two beliefs: 1) that the role of the reader cannot be omitted from our understanding of literature and 2) that readers do not passively consume the meaning presented to them by an objective literary text; rather they actively make the meaning they find in literature" (154). In this way, reader-response theory shares common ground with some of the deconstructionists discussed in the Post-structural area when they talk about "the death of the author," or her displacement as the (author)itarian figure in the text.四、StructuralismLinguistic RootsThe structuralist school emerges from theories of language and linguistics, and it looks for underlying elements in culture and literature that can be connected so that critics can develop general conclusions about the individual works and the systems from which they emerge. In fact, structuralism maintains that "...practically everything we do that is specifically human is expressed in language" (Richter 809). Structuralists believe that these language symbols extend far beyond written or oral communication.For example, codes that represent all sorts of things permeate everything we do: "the performance of music requires complex notation...our economic life rests upon the exchange of labor and goods for symbols, such as cash, checks, stock, and certificates...social life depends on the meaningful gestures and signals of 'body language' and revolves around the exchange of small, symbolic favors: drinks, parties, dinners" (Richter 809).Patterns and ExperienceStructuralists assert that, since language exists in patterns, certain underlying elements are common to all human experiences. Structuralists believe we can observe these experiences through patterns: "...if you examine the physical structures of all buildings built in urban America in 1850 to discover the underlying principles that govern their composition, for example, principles of mechanical construction or of artistic form..." you are using a structuralist lens (Tyson 197).Moreover, "you are also engaged in structuralist activity if you examine the structure of a single building to discover how its composition demonstrates underlying principles of a structural system. In the first example...you're generating a structural system of classification; in the second, you're demonstrating that an individual item belongs to a particular structural class" (Tyson 197). Structuralism in Literary TheoryStructuralism is used in literary theory, for example, "...if you examine the structure of a large number of short stories to discover the underlying principles that govern their composition...principles of narrative progression...or of characterization...you are also engaged instructuralist activity if you describe the structure of a single literary work to discover how its composition demonstrates the underlying principles of a given structural system" (Tyson 197-198).Northrop Frye, however, takes a different approach to structuralism by exploring ways in which genres of Western literature fall into his four mythoi (also see Jungian criticism in the Freudian Literary Criticism resource):1.theory of modes, or historical criticism (tragic, comic, and thematic);2.theory of symbols, or ethical criticism (literal/descriptive, formal, mythical, andanagogic);3.theory of myths, or archetypal criticism (comedy, romance, tragedy, irony/satire);4.theory of genres, or rhetorical criticism (epos, prose, drama, lyric) (Tyson 240). Peirce and SaussureTwo important theorists form the framework (hah) of structuralism: Charles Sanders Peirce and Ferdinand de Saussure. Peirce gave structuralism three important ideas for analyzing the sign systems that permeate and define our experiences:1."iconic signs, in which the signifier resembles the thing signified (such as the stickfigures on washroom doors that signify 'Men' or 'Women';2.indexes, in which the signifier is a reliable indicator of the presence of the signified(like fire and smoke);3.true symbols, in which the signifier's relation to the thing signified is completelyarbitrary and conventional [just as the sound /kat/ or the written word cat areconventional signs for the familiar feline]" (Richter 810).These elements become very important when we move into deconstruction in the Postmodernism resource. Peirce also influenced the semiotic school of structuralist theory that uses sign systems. Sign SystemsThe discipline of semiotics plays an important role in structuralist literary theory and cultural studies. Semioticians "...appl[y] structuralist insights to the study of...sign systems...a non-linguistic object or behavior...that can be analyzed as if it were a language" (Tyson 205). Specifically, "...semiotics examines the ways non-linguistic objects and behaviors 'tell' us something.For example, the picture of the reclining blond beauty in the skin-tight, black velvet dress on the billboard...'tells' us that those who drink this whiskey (presumably male) will be attractive to...beautiful women like the one displayed here" (Tyson 205). Lastly, Richter states, "semiotics takes off from Peirce - for whom language is one of numerous sign systems - and structuralism takes off from Saussure, for whom language was the sign system par excellence"五、Poststructuralism/ DeconstructionThe Center Cannot HoldThis approach concerns itself with the ways and places where systems, frameworks, definitions, and certainties break down. Post-structuralism maintains that frameworks and systems, for example the structuralist systems explained in the Structuralist area, are merely fictitious constructs and that they cannot be trusted to develop meaning or to give order. In fact, the very act of seeking order or a singular Truth (with a capital T) is absurd because there exists no unified truth.Post-structuralism holds that there are many truths, that frameworks must bleed, and that structures must become unstable or decentered. Moreover, post-structuralism is also concernedwith the power structures or hegemonies and power and how these elements contribute to and/or maintain structures to enforce hierarchy. Therefore, post-structural theory carries implications far beyond literary criticism.What Does Your Meaning Mean?By questioning the process of developing meaning, post-structural theory strikes at the very heart of philosophy and reality and throws knowledge making into what Jacques Derrida called "freeplay": "The concept of centered structure...is contradictorily coherent...the concept of centered structure is in fact the concept of a freeplay which is constituted upon a fundamental immobility and a reassuring certitude, which is itself beyond the reach of the freeplay" (qtd. in Richter, 878-879).Derrida first posited these ideas in 1966 at Johns Hopkins University, when he delivered ―Structure, Sign, and Play in the Discourse of the Human Sciences‖: "Perhaps something has occurred in the history of the concept of structure that could be called an 'event,' if this loaded word did not entail a meaning which it is precisely the function of structural-or structuralist-thought to reduce or to suspect. But let me use the term ―event‖ anyway, employing it with caution and as if in quotation marks. In this sense, this event will have the exterior form of a rupture and a redoubling‖ (qtd. in Richter, 878). In his presentation, Derrida challenged structuralism's most basic ideas.Can Language Do That?Post-structural theory can be tied to a move against Modernist/Enlightenment ideas (philosophers: Immanuel Kant, Réne Descartes, John Locke, etc.) and Western religious beliefs (neo-Platonism, Catholicism, etc.). An early pioneer of this resistance was philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche. In his essay, ―On Truth and Lies in an Extra-moral Sense‖ (1873), Nietzsc he rejects even the very basis of our knowledge making, language, as a reliable system of communication: ―The various languages, juxtaposed, show that words are never concerned with truth, never with adequate expression...‖ (248).Below is an example, adapted from the Tyson text, of some language freeplay and a simple form of deconstruction:Time (noun) flies (verb) like an arrow (adverb clause) = Time passes quickly.Time (verb) flies (object) like an arrow (adverb clause) = Get out your stopwatch and time the speed of flies as you would time an arrow's flight.Time flies (noun) like (verb) an arrow (object) = Time flies are fond of arrows (or at least of one particular arrow).So, post-structuralists assert that if we cannot trust language systems to convey truth, the very bases of truth are unreliable and the universe - or at least the universe we have constructed - becomes unraveled or de-centered. Nietzsche uses language slip as a base to move into the slip and shift of truth as a whole: ―What is truth? …truths are an illusion about which it has been forgotten that they are illusions...‖ (On Truth and Lies 250).This returns us to the discussion in the Structuralist area regarding signs, signifiers, and signified. Essentially, post-structuralism holds that we cannot trust the sign = signifier + signified formula, that there is a breakdown of certainty between sign/signifier, which leaves language systems hopelessly inadequate for relaying meaning so that we are (returning to Derrida) in eternal freeplay or instability.What's Left?Important to note, however, is that deconstruction is not just about tearing down - this is a common misconception. Derrida, in "Signature Event Context," addressed this limited view of post-structural theory: "Deconstruction cannot limit or proceed immediately to a neutralization: it must…practice an overturning of the classical opposition and a general displacement of the system. It is only on this condition that deconstruction will provide itself the means with which to intervene in the field of oppositions that it criticizes, which is also a field of nondiscursive forces" (328).Derrida reminds us that through deconstruction we can identify the in-betweens and the marginalized to begin interstitial knowledge building.六、Postmodernism七、PostcolonialismHistory is Written by the VictorsPost-colonial criticism is similar to cultural studies, but it assumes a unique perspective on literature and politics that warrants a separate discussion. Specifically, post-colonial critics are concerned with literature produced by colonial powers and works produced by those who were/are colonized. Post-colonial theory looks at issues of power, economics, politics, religion, and culture and how these elements work in relation to colonial hegemony (western colonizers controlling the colonized).Therefore, a post-colonial critic might be interested in works such as Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe where colonial "...ideology [is] manifest in Crusoe's colonialist attitude toward the land upon which he's shipwrecked and toward the black man he 'colonizes' and names Friday" (Tyson 377). In addition, post-colonial theory might point out that "...despite Heart of Darkness's (Joseph Conrad) obvious anti-colonist agenda, the novel points to the colonized population as the standard of savagery to which Europeans are contrasted" (Tyson 375). Post-colonial criticism also takes the form of literature composed by authors that critique Euro-centric hegemony.A Unique Perspective on EmpireSeminal post-colonial writers such as Nigerian author Chinua Achebe and Kenyan author Ngugi wa Thiong'o have written a number of stories recounting the suffering of colonized people. For example, in Things Fall Apart, Achebe details the strife and devastation that occurred when British colonists began moving inland from the Nigerian coast.Rather than glorifying the exploratory nature of European colonists as they expanded their sphere of influence, Achebe narrates the destructive events that led to the death and enslavement of thousands of Nigerians when the British imposed their Imperial government. In turn, Achebe points out the negative effects (and shifting ideas of identity and culture) caused by the imposition of western religion and economics on Nigerians during colonial rule.Power, Hegemony, and LiteraturePost-colonial criticism also questions the role of the western literary canon and western history as dominant forms of knowledge making. The terms "first-world," "second world," "third world" and "fourth world" nations are critiqued by post-colonial critics because they reinforce the dominant positions of western cultures populating first world status. This critique includes the literary canon and histories written from the perspective of first-world cultures. So, for example, a post-colonial critic might question the works included in "the canon" because the canon does not contain works by authors outside western culture.Moreover, the authors included in the canon often reinforce colonial hegemonic ideology, such as Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness. Western critics might consider Heart of Darkness an effective critique of colonial behavior. But post-colonial theorists and authors might disagree with this perspective: "...as Chinua Achebe observes, the novel's condemnation of European is based on a definition of Africans as savages: beneath their veneer of civilization, the Europeans are, the novel tells us, as barbaric as the Africans. And indeed, Achebe notes, the novel portrays Africans as a pre-historic mass of frenzied, howling, incomprehensible barbarians..."八、New HistoricismIt's All Relative...This school, influenced by structuralist and post-structuralist theories, seeks to reconnect a work with the time period in which it was produced and identify it with the cultural and political movements of the time (Michel Foucault's concept of épistème). New Historicism assumes that every work is a product of the historic moment that created it. Specifically, New Historicism is "...a practice that has developed out of contemporary theory, particularly the structuralist realization that all human systems are symbolic and subject to the rules of language, and the deconstructive realization that there is no way of positioning oneself as an observer outside the closed circle of textuality" (Richter 1205).A helpful way of considering New Historical theory, Tyson explains, is to think about the retelling of history itself: "...questions asked by traditional historians and by new historicists are quite different...traditional historians ask, 'What happened?' and 'What does the event tell us about history?' In contrast, new historicists ask, 'How has the event been interpreted?' and 'What do the interpretations tell us about the interpreters?'" (278). So New Historicism resists the notion that "...history is a series of events that have a linear, causal relationship: event A caused event B; eventB caused event C; and so on" (Tyson 278).New historicists do not believe that we can look at history objectively, but rather that we interpret events as products of our time and culture and that "...we don't have clear access to any but the most basic facts of history...our understanding of what such facts mean...is...strictly a matter of interpretation, not fact" (279). Moreover, New Historicism holds that we are hopelessly subjective interpreters of what we observe.九、Feminism(1960s-present)S/heFeminist criticism is concerned with "...the ways in which literature (and other cultural productions) reinforce or undermine the economic, political, social, and psychological oppression of women" (Tyson). This school of theory looks at how aspects of our culture are inherently patriarchal (male dominated) and "...this critique strives to expose the explicit and implicit misogyny in male writing about women" (Richter 1346). This misogyny, Tyson reminds us, can extend into diverse areas of our culture: "Perhaps the most chilling example...is found in the world of modern medicine, where drugs prescribed for both sexes often have been tested on male subjects only" (83).Feminist criticism is also concerned with less obvious forms of marginalization such as the exclusion of women writers from the traditional literary canon: "...unless the critical or historical point of view is feminist, there is a tendency to under-represent the contribution of women writers" (Tyson 82-83).Common Space in Feminist TheoriesThough a number of different approaches exist in feminist criticism, there exist some areas of commonality. This list is excerpted from Tyson:1.Women are oppressed by patriarchy economically, politically, socially, andpsychologically; patriarchal ideology is the primary means by which they are keptso2.In every domain where patriarchy reigns, woman is other: she is marginalized,defined only by her difference from male norms and values3.All of western (Anglo-European) civilization is deeply rooted in patriarchal ideology,for example, in the biblical portrayal of Eve as the origin of sin and death in theworld4.While biology determines our sex (male or female), culture determines our gender(masculine or feminine)5.All feminist activity, including feminist theory and literary criticism, has as itsultimate goal to change the world by prompting gender equality6.Gender issues play a part in every aspect of human production and experience,including the production and experience of literature, whether we are consciouslyaware of these issues or not (91).Feminist criticism has, in many ways, followed what some theorists call the three waves of feminism:1.First Wave Feminism - late 1700s-early 1900's: writers like Mary Wollstonecraft (AVindication of the Rights of Women, 1792) highlight the inequalities between thesexes. Activists like Susan B. Anthony and Victoria Woodhull contribute to thewomen's suffrage movement, which leads to National Universal Suffrage in 1920with the passing of the Nineteenth Amendment2.Second Wave Feminism - early 1960s-late 1970s: building on more equal workingconditions necessary in America during World War II, movements such as theNational Organization for Women (NOW), formed in 1966, cohere feminist politicalactivism. Writers like Simone de Beauvoir (Le deuxième sexe, 1972) and ElaineShowalter established the groundwork for the dissemination of feminist theoriesdove-tailed with the American Civil Rights movementThird Wave Feminism- early 1990s-present: resisting the perceived essentialist (over generalized, over simplified) ideologies and a white, heterosexual, middle class focus of second wave feminism, third wave feminism borrows from post-structural and contemporary gender and race theories (see below) to expand on marginalized populations' experiences. Writers like Alice Walker work to "...reconcile it [feminism] with the concerns of the black community...[and] the survival and wholeness of her people, men and women both, and for the promotion of dialog and community as well as for the valorization of women and of all the varieties of work women perform".十、MarxismBased on the theories of Karl Marx (and so influenced by philosopher Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel), this school concerns itself with class differences, economic and otherwise, as well as the implications and complications of the capitalist system: "Marxism attempts to reveal the ways in which our socioeconomic system is the ultimate source of our experience" (Tyson 277). Theorists working in the Marxist tradition, therefore, are interested in answering the overarching question, whom does it [the work, the effort, the policy, the road, etc.] benefit? The elite? The middle class? And Marxists critics are also interested in how the lower or working classes are oppressed - in everyday life and in literature.The Material DialecticThe Marxist school follows a process of thinking called the material dialectic. This belief system maintains that "...what drives historical change are the material realities of the economic base of society, rather than the ideological superstructure of politics, law, philosophy, religion, and art that is built upon that economic base" (Richter 1088).Marx asserts that "...stable societies develop sites of resistance: contradictions build into the social system that ultimately lead to social revolution and the development of a new society upon the old" (1088). This cycle of contradiction, tension, and revolution must continue: there will always be conflict between the upper, middle, and lower (working) classes and this conflict will be reflected in literature and other forms of expression - art, music, movies, etc.Though a staggering number of different nuances exist within this school of literary theory, Marxist critics generally work in areas covered by the following questions.十一、OtherGender Studies and Queer Theory (1970s-present)Gender(s), Power, and MarginalizationGender studies and queer theory explore issues of sexuality, power, and marginalized populations (woman as other) in literature and culture. Much of the work in gender studies and queer theory, while influenced by feminist criticism, emerges from post-structural interest in fragmented, de-centered knowledge building (Nietzsche, Derrida, Foucault), language (the breakdown of sign-signifier), and psychoanalysis (Lacan).A primary concern in gender studies and queer theory is the manner in which gender and sexuality is discussed: "Effective as this work [feminism] was in changing what teachers taught and what the students read, there was a sense on the part of some feminist critics that...it was still the old game that was being played, when what it needed was a new game entirely. The argument posed was that in order to counter patriarchy, it was necessary not merely to think about new texts, but to think about them in radically new ways" (Richter 1432).Therefore, a critic working in gender studies and queer theory might even be uncomfortable with the binary established by many feminist scholars between masculine and feminine: "Cixous (following Derrida in Of Grammatology) sets up a series of binary oppositions (active/passive, sun/moon...father/mother, logos/pathos). Each pair can be analyzed as a hierarchy in which the former term represents the positive and masculine and the latter the negative and feminine principle" (Richter 1433-1434).In-BetweensMany critics working with gender and queer theory are interested in the breakdown of binaries such as male and female, the in-betweens (also following Derrida's interstitial knowledge building). For example, gender studies and queer theory maintains that cultural definitions of sexuality and what it means to be male and female are in flux: "...the distinction between "masculine" and "feminine" activities and behavior is constantly changing, so that women who wear baseball caps and fatigues...can be perceived as more piquantly sexy by some heterosexual men than those women who wear white frocks and gloves and look down demurely". Moreover, Richter reminds us that as we learn more about our genetic structure, the biology of male/female becomes increasingly complex and murky: "even the physical dualism of sexual genetic structures and bodily parts breaks down when one considers those instances-XXYsyndromes, natural sexual bimorphisms, as well as surgical transsexuals - that defy attempts at binary classification".十二、精神分析Psychoanalytic Criticism (1930s-present)Sigmund FreudPsychoanalytic criticism builds on Freudian theories of psychology. While we don't have the room here to discuss all of Freud's work, a general overview is necessary to explain psychoanalytic literary criticism.The Unconscious, the Desires, and the DefensesFreud began his psychoanalytic work in the 1880s while attempting to treat behavioral disorders in his Viennese patients. He dubbed the disorders 'hysteria' and began treating them by listening to his patients talk through their problems. Based on this work, Freud asserted that people's behavior is affected by their unconscious: "...the notion that human beings are motivated, even driven, by desires, fears, needs, and conflicts of which they are unaware..." (Tyson 14-15).Freud believed that our unconscious was influenced by childhood events. Freud organized these events into developmental stages involving relationships with parents and drives of desire and pleasure where children focus "...on different parts of the body...starting with the mouth...shifting to the oral, anal, and phallic phases..." (Richter 1015). These stages reflect base levels of desire, but they also involve fear of loss (loss of genitals, loss of affection from parents, loss of life) and repression: "...the expunging from consciousness of these unhappy psychological events" (Tyson 15).Tyson reminds us, however, that "...repression doesn't eliminate our painful experiences and emotions...we unconsciously behave in ways that will allow us to 'play out'...our conflicted feelings about the painful experiences and emotions we repress" (15). To keep all of this conflict buried in our unconscious, Freud argued that we develop defenses: selective perception, selective memory, denial, displacement, projection, regression, fear of intimacy, and fear of death, among others.Id, Ego, and SuperegoFreud maintained that our desires and our unconscious conflicts give rise to three areas of the mind that wrestle for dominance as we grow from infancy, to childhood, to adulthood: ∙id - "...the location of the drives" or libido∙ego - "...one of the major defenses against the power of the drives..." and home of the defenses listed above∙superego - the area of the unconscious that houses judgement (of self and others) and "...which begins to form during childhood as a result of the Oedipus complex" (Richter 1015-1016)Oedipus ComplexFreud believed that the Oedipus complex was "...one of the most powerfully determinative elements in the growth of the child" (Richter 1016). Essentially, the Oedipus complex involves children's need for their parents and the conflict that arises as children mature and realize they are not the absolute focus of their mother's attention: "the Oedipus complex begins in a late phase of infantile sexuality, between the child's third and sixth year, and it takes a different form in males than it does in females" (Richter 1016).Freud argued that both boys and girls wish to possess their mothers, but as they grow older "...they begin to sense that their claim to exclusive attention is thwarted by the mother's attention to the。
地震的原因英语作文
地震的原因英语作文Earthquakes are one of the most powerful and destructive natural phenomena on Earth. They occur without warning and can cause widespread devastation. Understanding the causes of earthquakes is crucial for predicting and mitigating their effects. This essay will explore the scientific explanations behind the forces that trigger earthquakes.The primary cause of earthquakes is the movement of tectonic plates, which are massive slabs of solid rock that make up the Earth's lithosphere. These plates are constantly in motion, albeit very slowly, and their interactions are responsible for the majority of earthquakes. There are three main types of plate boundaries where earthquakes can occur: divergent, convergent, and transform.1. Divergent Boundaries: At divergent boundaries, two plates move away from each other. This process is known as rifting and often occurs along mid-ocean ridges. As the plates separate, magma from the mantle rises to fill the gap, creating new crust. The tension created by this process can cause earthquakes.2. Convergent Boundaries: When two plates move towards each other, they can collide, forming a convergent boundary. This can result in one plate being forced under the other in a process called subduction, or they can crumple together, forming mountain ranges. The immense pressure and stress fromthese collisions can cause the Earth's crust to rupture, resulting in earthquakes.3. Transform Boundaries: At transform boundaries, two plates slide past each other horizontally. The friction between the plates can cause them to lock together, building up stress. When the stress becomes too great, the plates can suddenly slip, releasing energy in the form of an earthquake.In addition to tectonic plate movements, earthquakes can also be caused by volcanic activity, although these are generally less powerful. The movement of magma beneath the Earth's surface can cause the crust to fracture, leading to an earthquake. Additionally, human activities, such as mining and the injection of fluids into the ground, can sometimes trigger minor earthquakes.In conclusion, the causes of earthquakes are complex and involve the dynamic interactions between the Earth's tectonic plates. Understanding these processes is essential for the development of effective earthquake early warning systems and for the design of infrastructure that can withstand the forces of these natural disasters. As our knowledge of the Earth's geology advances, so too will our ability to predict and prepare for the inevitable earthquakes that will continue to shape our planet.。

方法 将拉伸试样变形至应变为6%,采用基于互相关分析的高分辨EBSD 技术测量材料内部的刚体转动张量以及几何必需位错密度。
结果 Mg–Gd–Y–Zn 合金主要由基面<a >位错以及锥面<c +a >位错调节应变,即使在软取向晶粒内,锥面<c +a >位错也会大量出现。
当发生基面–基面位错的滑移转移与基面–锥面位错的滑移转移时,相邻两晶粒滑移系之间的Luster–Morris 因子很高(>0.78)。
结论 随着不同滑移系施密特因子的升高,晶粒内的位错密度逐渐降低。
这一反常现象可以归因于硬取向晶粒变形需消耗更多的应变能,而这部分应变能以位错密度的形式储存在晶粒内。

A VIC Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group Company Ltd., Xi'an 710089, China; 2. Harbin Institute of Technology,School of Materials Science and Engineering, Harbin 150001, China)ABSTRACT: Mg-RE alloys show improved ductility compared to other classical magnesium alloys at room temperature. The present study focused on the strain accommodation mechanism in a wrought Mg-5.4Gd-1.8Y-1.5Zn alloy at the microstructural scale. For this purpose, a tensile specimen was uniaxially strained in-situ to 6%, and the lattice rotation tensor and geometrically necessary dislocation (GND) density were measured using cross-correlation-based high angular resolution electron backscatter diffraction (HR-EBSD) technique. The strain incompatibility within the Mg-Gd-Y-Zn alloy was accommodated by basal slip to-gether with pyramidal dislocation. The GND measurements via HR-EBSD showed a high occurrence of pyramidal <c +a > dis-location even in well-aligned grains. In addition, slip transfer process of the basal-basal and basal-pyramidal type was observed with high Luster-Morris factors (>0.78), in this study. The average GND density in grains tends to decrease with the Schmid factor increases. This phenomenon can be attributed to the fact that more strain energy is consumed for the hard-oriented grains, which is stored in grains in the form of dislocation density during deformation.KEY WORDS: strain accommodation; Mg-RE alloy; HR-EBSD; slip transfer; dislocation density镁及镁合金因其低密度与高比强度的特性,在航空航天以及汽车工业领域中具有广阔的应用前景[1-3]。

托福培训丨托福听力讲座结构分层解题法
托福培训丨托福听力讲座结构分层解题法朗阁托福培训中心黄蓉Vicky在托福听力考试中同学们只能听到一遍音频,由于考试涉及到各个学科,内容涉及领域广生词多,所以难免会出现在考试时某些细节信息无法准确理解的情况,而文章中的选项又常常以文中已出现的内容作为干扰,这使同学们在做题时感到非常困扰。
因此,朗阁托福培训中心的专家们通过对真题的悉心研究,总结并发现了一套行之有效的解题方法,通过托福听力文章结构类型来预测考点,并且通过文章的分层来帮助我们排除干扰选项。
首先我们从托福听力文章最为常见的并列型结构入手来进行讲解。
并列结构即在文章的一个主题下提及该主题相关的各个分支,这些分支是互相独立的并列关系。
因为这类文章的结构最为清晰,分层也最易把握,所以尤其适合刚学习分层的同学用来总结和体会分层的规律。
以TPO中的真题为例:如生物话题中TPO 17 Lecture 4关于octopus的一篇文章中,在一开头就总起叙述了章鱼的三个特性,Just like Proteus, the octopus can go through all kinds of incredible transformations. And it does this in three ways: by changing color, by changing its texture, and by changing its size and shape.接下来的文章便从color, texture, size and shape三个方面分别说明了章鱼是如何完成让人难以置信的变形而很好地伪装自己的,而文章中表示分层的句子也非常清晰。
下面我们就来看看每个并列信息之间这些表示分层的表达,并利用分层来帮助我们排除错误选项。
首先第一个层次利用For me, the most fascinating transformation is when it changes its color.展开,开始了关于color这个层次的叙述,而第二层次的展开是通过一个承上启下的句子So, that’s how octopus mimic colors. But they don’t just mimic the colors in their environment; they can also mimic the texture of objects in their environment.开始了对texture这个层次的叙述。
挤压态AZ31镁合金温热拉伸性能的各向异性
挤压态AZ31镁合金温热拉伸性能的各向异性吴国华;肖寒;周慧子;王瑞雪;程明;张士宏【摘要】The tensile properties,microstructure,appearance of fracture in five different planar directions of extruded AZ31 magnesium alloy sheets at the warm-temperature were investigated by uniaxial compression test.The results indicate that the extruded magnesium alloy sheets show high anisotropy,and the most obvious anisotropic temperature is170 ℃.With the increase of the angle between tensile direction and extrusion direction,the tensile strength increases from 217 MPa to 271 MPa,and the yield strength decreases from 174 MPa to 71 MPa.There are three deformation mechanisms of magnesium alloys at warm-temperature,which include {10-12} extension twinning,{10-11} compression twinning and base slip.The deformation mechanism is different at different stretching angles.When the angle between tensile direction and extrusion direction is less than 45°,the fracture mechanism of magnesium alloy is micropore aggregation fracture.With the increase of angle,it is the mixed fracture of toughness and brittleness,and the cleavage fracture occurs at the angle of 67.5°.%采用单向拉伸实验研究温热条件下挤压态AZ31镁合金板材5个不同方向的力学性能、显微组织、断口形貌.结果表明:挤压态镁合金力学性能具有明显的各向异性,170℃时,各向异性最明显,随着拉伸方向与挤压方向所呈角度的增大,抗拉强度从217 MPa增大到271 MPa,屈服强度却从174 MPa减小到71 MPa.镁合金在温热条件下变形机制为{10-12}拉伸孪生、{10-11}压缩孪生和{0001}基面(a)滑移;沿着不同角度拉伸时,变形机制有所不同.拉伸方向与挤压方向的角度小于45°时,挤压态镁合金表现为微孔聚集型的韧性断裂;且随着角度的增大,表现为韧-脆混合断裂,其中角度为67.5°时,镁合金以解理方式断裂.【期刊名称】《中国有色金属学报》【年(卷),期】2017(027)001【总页数】7页(P57-63)【关键词】镁合金;温热拉伸性能;孪生;断裂机制;各向异性【作者】吴国华;肖寒;周慧子;王瑞雪;程明;张士宏【作者单位】昆明理工大学材料科学与工程学院,昆明650093;昆明理工大学材料科学与工程学院,昆明650093;昆明理工大学材料科学与工程学院,昆明650093;中国科学院金属研究所,沈阳110016;中国科学院金属研究所,沈阳110016;中国科学院金属研究所,沈阳110016【正文语种】中文【中图分类】TG146.2镁合金具有低密度、高强度、电磁屏蔽效果优良及易回收等优点,常被作为轻量化结构材料应用于汽车、交通、电子等行业[1-2]。
居住空间设计英语
IntroductionResidential space design is an intricate process that transcends mere aesthetics, encompassing functionality, sustainability, emotional well-being, and the integration of advanced technologies. Crafting a high-quality, high-standard living environment necessitates a comprehensive understanding of these diverse elements and their harmonious fusion. This essay presents a multifaceted analysis of designing such spaces, delving into the key aspects that define their excellence.1. **Contextual and Site-Specific Design**A paramount aspect of high-quality residential design lies in its responsiveness to the context and site. A thorough understanding of the locale's climate, topography, cultural heritage, and urban fabric guides architects in creating homes that seamlessly blend with their surroundings. For instance, a coastal residence may incorporate large windows to capture ocean views and harness natural ventilation, while a mountain retreat may emphasize earthy materials and a low-impact footprint. Furthermore, respecting local building codes, zoning regulations, and environmental protection guidelines ensures compliance with legal standards and contributes to sustainable urban development.2. **Functional Layout and Spatial Flow**Efficient spatial planning is fundamental to achieving a high-standard living space. A well-designed layout optimizes the use of available area, ensuring that each room serves its intended purpose without feeling cramped or disconnected. The fluidity of movement between spaces is equally crucial, as seamless transitions promote a sense of spaciousness and ease of daily routines. Open-plan designs, strategic placement of transitional elements like corridors or staircases, and the careful allocation of private and communal zones contribute to an intuitive and enjoyable spatial experience.3. **Adaptive and Flexible Spaces**In today's rapidly evolving lifestyles, residential spaces must be adaptable to accommodate changing needs and preferences. High-quality design embraces flexibility through multipurpose rooms, movable partitions, and convertible furniture. Such features enable homeowners to reconfigure spaces according to their current requirements, whether it be accommodating a growing family, setting up a home office, or hosting guests. Moreover, future-proofing the design with provisions for potential extensions or renovations ensures the long-term relevance and value of the property.4. **Light, Color, and Materiality**The interplay of light, color, and material choices significantly impacts the ambiance, mood, and overall quality of a residential space. Abundant natural light not only enhances visual comfort but also improves energy efficiency and mental health. Strategic placement of windows, skylights, and light wells can maximize daylight penetration, while thoughtful selection of artificial lighting systems ensures optimal illumination during darker hours. Color schemesshould reflect the occupants' tastes and foster the desired atmosphere, be it calming neutrality, vibrant playfulness, or sophisticated elegance. Material choices should prioritize durability, sustainability, and sensory appeal, with a focus on authentic textures, eco-friendly options, and low-maintenance finishes.5. **Sustainable and Energy-Efficient Design**Environmental consciousness is a hallmark of high-quality, high-standard residential design. Architects and designers should employ passive strategies – such as orientation, insulation, shading, and natural ventilation – to minimize energy consumption for heating, cooling, and lighting. Integration of renewable energy systems, like solar panels or geothermal heat pumps, further reduces the home's carbon footprint. Water-saving fixtures, rainwater harvesting, and greywater recycling systems contribute to water conservation. Additionally, the use of locally sourced, recycled, and low-VOC materials, along with green roofs, living walls, and permeable paving, promotes biodiversity and ecological resilience.6. **Technology Integration and Smart Home Features**Incorporating cutting-edge technology enhances the functionality, convenience, and security of a high-standard residence. Smart home systems enable remote control of lighting, temperature, appliances, and security, often via voice commands or smartphone apps. Home automation can also optimize energy usage, monitor indoor air quality, and provide predictive maintenance alerts. Advanced technologies like augmented reality, virtual assistants, and AI-driven personalization can further elevate the living experience, tailoring the environment to individual preferences and routines.7. **Wellness-Oriented Design**Designing for wellness involves creating environments that positively influence physical, mental, and emotional health. This encompasses aspects such as acoustic comfort, air quality, access to nature, and opportunities for physical activity. Sound-absorbing materials, strategic placement of bedrooms away from noise sources, and dedicated quiet zones promote tranquility. Indoor plants, natural ventilation, and air purification systems enhance air quality. Incorporating features like home gyms, yoga studios, or outdoor recreational areas fosters an active lifestyle. Moreover, biophilic design principles, which connect occupants with nature through elements like greenery, natural light, and organic patterns, have been shown to reduce stress and improve overall well-being.8. **Accessibility and Universal Design**Designing residences that cater to diverse abilities and life stages demonstrates a commitment to inclusivity and high standards. Universal design principles ensure that all users, regardless of age, size, or ability, can navigate and utilize the space comfortably and independently. This includes features like level thresholds, wide doorways, non-slip flooring, accessible switches and outlets, and ample maneuvering space in bathrooms and kitchens.Thoughtful consideration of accessibility not only enhances the quality of life for residents but also increases the home's market appeal and resale value.ConclusionDesigning high-quality, high-standard residential spaces requires a holistic approach that integrates contextual sensitivity, functional efficiency, adaptability, aesthetic appeal, sustainability, technology, wellness, and inclusivity. By meticulously addressing these multifaceted aspects, architects and designers can create living environments that surpass mere shelter, offering instead sanctuaries of comfort, inspiration, and enduring value. As lifestyles continue to evolve and new design innovations emerge, the pursuit of excellence in residential space design remains a dynamic and ever-rewarding endeavor.。

Safety begins before you even start the equipment!
Personal Protection:
• Wear PPE, such as goggles, safety shoes and leather gloves.
• Long hair should be tied back or tucked under to avoid getting caught in machinery.
When the operation of a machine or accidental contact with it can injure the operator or others in the vicinity, the hazards must be either controlled or eliminated.
Safeguards are essential for protecting workers from needless and preventable injuries.
A good rule to remember is:
Any machine part, function, or process which many cause injury must be safeguarded.

2023年英语教学法教程知识点总结单元
FLTM: foreign language teaching methodology is a science which studies the processes and patterns of foreign language teaching, aiming at revealing the natural and laws of foreign languages.Major approaches in FLT:Grammar-translation method (deductive演绎法)Direct method (inductive归纳法)Audio-lingual methodHumanistic approaches: that emphasize the development of human values, growth in self-awareness and in the understanding of others, sensitivity to human feelings and emotions, and active student involvement in learning and in the way human learning takes palaceThe silent waySuggestopediaCommunity language learning (CLL)Total physical response method (TPR)●The natural approach(NA)●The communicative approach(CA )An approach is a set of correlative assumptions dealing with the nature of language teaching ad leaning. Approach is axiomatic. It describes the nature of the subject matter to b taught.Method is an overall plan for the orderly presentation of language material, no part of which contradicts, and all of which is based upon, the selected approach. An approach is axiomatic, a method is procedural. Within one approach, there can be many methods.A technique is implementation---that which actually takes place in a classroom. It is a particular trick, stratagem, or contrivance used to accomplish an immediate objective. Techniques must b consistent with a method, and therefore I harmony with an approach as well.Views on language:Structural view: the structural view of language sees language as a linguistic system made up of various subsystems: the sound system (phonology); the discrete units of meaning produced by sound combinations (morphology); and the system of combining units of meaning for communication (syntax).Functional view: the functional view not only sees language as a linguistic system but also means for doing things. Functional activities: offering, suggesting, advising, apologizing, etc. International view: considers language to be a communicative tool, whose main use is to build up and maintain social relations between people. Therefore, learners not only need to know the grammar and vocabulary of the language but as importantly they need to know the rules for using them in a whole range of communicative contexts.Process-oriented theories: are concerned with how the mind organizes new information such as habit formation, induction, making inference, hypothesis testing and generalization.Condition-oriented theories: emphasize the nature of the human and physical context in which language learning takes place, such as the number of students, the kind of input learners receives, and the atmosphere.Behaviorist theory, the idea of this method is that language is learned by constant repletion and the reinforcement of the teacher. Mistakes were immediately corrected, and correct utterances were immediately praised.Cognitive theory, language is not a form of behavior, it is an intricate rule-based system and a large part of language acquisition is the learning of this system.Constructivist theory, believes that learning is a process in which the learner constructs meaning based on his/her own experiences and what he/she already knows.Socio-constructivist theory, similar to constructivist theory, socio-constructivist theory emphasizes interaction and engagement with the target language in a social context based on the concept of “Zone of Proximal Development” (ZPD) and scaffolding.Ethic devotion, professional qualities and personal stylesCLT: communicative language teachingTBLT: task-based language teachingThe goal of CLT is to develop students’communicative competence, which includes both the knowledge about the language and the knowledge about how to use the language appropriately in communicative situations. P16Hedge discusses five main components of communicative competence: linguistic competence, pragmatic competence, discourse competence, strategic competence, and fluency.Howatt proposes a weak and a strong version of CLT.Weak version: learners first acquire language as a structural system and then learn how to use it in communication. --- the weak version regards overt teaching of language forms and functions as necessary means for helping learners to develop the ability to use them for communication.Strong version: language is acquired through communication. The learners discover the structural system in the process of leaning how to communicate.---regards experiences of using the language as the main means or necessary conditions for learning a language as they provide the experience for learners to see how language is used in communication.Communicative activities: P24Tasks are activities where the target language is used by the leaner for a communicative purpose (goal) in order to achieve an outcome.Four components of a task: a purpose, a context, a process, and a productTasks focus on the complete act of communication. (Purposeful & contextualized communication). Exercises focus the students’attention on the individual aspects of language, such as vocabulary, grammar or individual skills. (Focus on individual language items)Exercise-task comes halfway between tasks and exercises, consists of contextualized practice of language item.PPP: for teaching a new structure-based lesson, content lesson, presentation (introduces new vocabulary and grammatical structures), practice (the lesson moves from controlled practice to guided practice and exploitation of the texts when necessary) and production(the students are encouraged to use what they are learned and practiced to perform communicative tasks)The importance of lesson planning: 1. an unprepared teacher begins of a disastrous lesson.2. An unprepared teacher receives less trust and cooperation from the students. 3. The students are different, the time is different, and the mood is different.Lesson Planning: is a framework of a lesson in which teachers make advance decisions about what they hope to achieve and how they would like to achieve it. In other words, teachers need to think about the aims to be achieved, materials to be covered, activities to be organized, and techniques and resources to be used in order to achieve the aims of the lesson.Principles for good lesson planning: aim, variety, flexibility, learnability, and linkage. Variety: planning a number of different types of activities and where possible,introducing students to a wide selection of materials so that learning is always interesting, motivating and never monotonous for the students.Flexibility: preparing some extra and alternative tasks and activities at the class does not always go according to the plan so that teachers always have the option to cope with the unexpected situations rather than being the slaves of written plans or one methodology. Learnability:within capability of the students, not be too easy or beyond or below the students’ coping ability.Linkage: easy task followed by a comparatively difficult one, or do a series of language-focused activities to get the students prepared linguistically.Components of a lesson planning: background information, teaching aims, language content andskills, stages and procedures, teaching aids, assignments, and teacher’s after-lesson reflection.For skill-oriented lesson, focusing on developing skills, the model is applicable---pre-(reading), while-, post-. (Pre-step, while-step, post-step)Classroom management is the way teachers organize what goes on in the classroom.The role of the teacher: controller, assessor (evaluator, correcting mistakes and organizing feedback), organizer (organize and design task that students can perform in the class), prompter推进者(give appropriate prompts and give hints), participant, resource-provider, teacher’s new roles.There are rules to follow for making instructions effective.●The first is to use simple instructions and make them suit the comprehensive level of thestudents.●The second rule is to use the mother-tongue only when it is necessary.●Give students time to get used to listening to English instructions and help the make an effortto understand them.●Use body language to assist understanding and stick to it each time you teach the class. Student grouping: whole class group—same activity at the same rhythm and pace, lockstep, pair work, group work, individual studyDiscipline: refers to a code of conduct which binds a teacher and a group of students together so that learning can be more effective.Questioning in the classroom:Classification of question types: 1.closed questions and open questions 2.display questions and genuine questions 3.lower-order questions and higher-order questions 4.taxonomyClosed questions refer to those with only one s ingle correct answer while open questions may invite many different answers.Display questions are those that the answers are already known to the teacher and they are used for checking if students know the answer, too. Genuine questionsare questions which are used to find out new information and since they often reflect real context, they are more communicative. Lower-order questions refer to those that simple require recalling of information or memorization of facts while higher order questions require more reasoning, analysis, and evaluation.Simple question and difficult questionA mistake refers to a performance error that is either a random guess or an “a slip of tongue”, it’s a failure performance to a known system.An error has direct relation with the learners’language competence. Results from Lack of knowledge in the target language. Language error cannot be self-corrected no matter how much attention is paidDealing with spoken errors: tasks or activities are focusing on accuracy or fluency. Balance between accuracy-based activities and fluency-based activities..When to correct: fluency work---not to interrupt, after the student’s performance; accuracy work---need to intervene moreHow to correct: direct teacher correction, indirect teacher correction, self-correction, peer correction, whole class correction.Goal of teaching pronunciation:Consistency: the pronunciation should be smooth and naturalIntelligibility: the pronunciation should be understandable t o the listenersCommunicative efficiency: the pronunciation should help convey the meaning that is intended by the speaker.Aspects of pronunciation: besides sounds and phonetic symbols, such as stress (strong and weak form, word stress and sentence stress), intonation and rhythm (variation).Perception practice: using minimal pairs, which order, same or different? Odd and out, Completion.Production practice: listen and repeat, fill the blanks, make up sentences, use meaningful context, use picture, use tongue twisters.Grammar presentation: The deductive method, the inductive method, the guided discovery methodGrammar practice: mechanical practice and meaningful/ communicative practice.Mechanical practice: involves activities that are aimed at form accuracy. Students pay repeated attention to a key element in a structure. Substitution drill and transformation drills.Meaningful practice: focus on the production, comprehension or exchange of meaning though the students keep an eye on the way newly learned structures are used in the process. It comes after mechanical practice. (Comparatives and superlatives). Using picture prompts, using mimes or gestures as prompts, using information sheet as prompts, using key phrases or key words as prompts, using chained phrases for story telling, using created situations.What does knowing a word involve? Denotative meaning; connotative meaning; chunk/collocations; synonyms, antonyms and hyponyms; receptive and productive vocabulary.Denotative meaning of a word or a lexical item refers to those words that we use to label things as regards real objects, such as a name or a sign, etc. in the physical world. Primary meaning of a word.A connotative meaning of a word refers to the attitudes or emotions of a language user in choosing a word and the influence of these on the listener or reader’s interpretation of the word. Collocations refer to words that co-occur with high frequency and have been accepted as ways for the use of words. For instance, see, look at, watch.Hyponyms refer to words which can be grounded together under the same superordinate concept. Receptive/passive vocabulary refers to words that one is able to recognize and comprehend in reading or listening but unable to use automatically in speaking or writing. Those words that one is not only able to recognize but also able to use in speech and writing are considered as one’s productive/active vocabulary.Ways of presenting vocabulary: inductive and deductive.Ways of consolidating vocabulary: labeling; spot the difference; describe and draw; play a game; use words series; word bingo; word association; finding synonyms and antonyms; categories; using word net-work; using the internet resources for more ideas.Developing vocabulary learning strategies: review regularly, guess meaning from context, organize vocabulary effectively, use a dictionary, and manage strategy use.Principles and models for teaching listening: focus on process, combine listening with other skills (listening can be practice with not-taking, and answers, role plays, retelling, interviewing, discussions, or a writing task), focus on the comprehension of meaning, grade difficulty level appropriately, principles for selecting and using listening activities.Two approaches are frequently used to describe different processes of listening.Bottom-up model and Top-down model.Bottom-up model: 从细节入手start with sound and meaning recognitions. Listeners construct meaning of what they hear based on the sound they hear, expect the listeners have a very effective short-term memory as they have to make sense of every sound in order to figure out the meaning of words, phrase, and structures. If there are unfamiliar sounds, listeners will find it very difficult to keep up with speaker. ---recognizing sounds of words, phrases or structures.Top-down model: 着重概要listening for gist and making use of the contextual clues and background knowledge to construct meaning are emphasized. Listeners can understand better if they already have some knowledge in their mind about the topic. Such knowledge is also termedas prior knowledge or schematic knowledge---mental frameworks for various things and experience we hold in our long-term memory. ---referring meaning from broad contextual clues and background knowledge.Three teaching stages: pre-listening—warming up; while-listening---listening comprehension; post-listening---checking answers.Teaching speakingLess complex syntax, short cuts, incomplete sentences, devices such as fillers, hesitation device to give time to thinking before speaking, false start, spontaneous, time-constraint.Types of speaking: pre-communicative activities—mechanical activities; communicative activities---meaningful activities.Controlled activities, semi-controlled activities, communicative activities:Information-gap activities; dialogues and role-plays; activities using pictures; problem-solving activities; change the story; human scrabbleOrganizing speaking tasks: use small group workTeaching readingThe construction of meaning from a printed or written message.Two broad levels in the act reading.1). A recognition task of perceiving visual signals from the printed page through the eyes.2). A cognitive task of interpreting the visual information revealing the received information with the reader’s own general knowledge, and reconstructing the meaning that the writer had meant to convey.For teaching: intensive/extensive readingIn terms of methods: skimming/scanning/predictingFor reading practice: reading aloud/silent readingThe role of vocabulary in reading: sight vocabulary: words that one is able to recognizeimmediately are often referred to as sight vocabulary.Principles and models for teaching reading: bottom-up model; top-down model; interactive modelPre-reading activities: predicting (predicting based on the tile/ based on vocabulary/based on the T/F questions) setting the scene, skimming, and scanningWhile-reading activities: TD (a transition device)Reading comprehension questions: 1. questions of literal comprehension 2. Questions involving reorganization or reinterpretation 3. Questions for inference (what is implied but not explicitly stated) 4. questions for evaluation or appreciation (making judgment about what the writer is trying to do and how successful he/she is in achieving his/her purpose) 5. Questions for personal responseIntensive reading is an accuracy-oriented activity involving reading for detail; the main purpose is to learn language embedded in the reading texts, which are usually short. Extensive reading is a fluency activity. The main purpose is to achieve global understanding. Te reading texts usually contains less new vocabulary and is longer than those intended for intensive reading.Teaching writingWriting for consolidating language, writing for communication, between writing for learning and writing for communication, imaginationNot have a real communicative purpose; for language skill; a little bit communicative; communicative approach; neither restrictions in contents nor in word limit; more communicative; more motivatedCA: communication approachA Productive approach to writing 成果法/a prose model approach---fruitlessA Process approach to writing 过程法: The teacher provides to guide studentsthrough the process that they undergo when they are writing. This kind of guidance should be gradually withdrawn so that the students can finally become independent writers.Main procedures of process writing include: creating a motivation to write, brainstorming, mapping, freewriting, outlining, drafting, editing, revising, proofreading and conferencing.。

滑坡英语作文翻译
滑坡英语作文翻译Title: Landslide A Natural Disaster。
A landslide, also known as landslip, is the movement of a mass of rock, debris, or earth down a slope. It is a natural disaster that can occur suddenly, often triggered by factors such as heavy rainfall, earthquakes, volcanic activity, or human activities like deforestation and construction. When a landslide happens, it can cause significant damage to property, infrastructure, and even loss of lives.The primary cause of landslides is the force of gravity acting upon the slope. When the gravitational force exceeds the strength of the materials holding the slope together, instability occurs, leading to a landslide. Rainfall, particularly heavy or prolonged rainfall, is one of the most common triggers for landslides. The water saturates the soil, increasing its weight and reducing its stability, making it more susceptible to movement.In addition to rainfall, earthquakes can also trigger landslides. The ground shaking caused by an earthquake can loosen rocks and soil, causing them to slide down slopes. Volcanic activity, such as eruptions or lava flows, can destabilize slopes by altering the composition of the land or creating new slopes.Human activities can also contribute to landslides. Deforestation, for example, removes trees and vegetation that help hold soil in place, increasing the risk of erosion and landslides. Construction activities, such as excavation or slope cutting, can weaken slopes and make them more prone to failure.The effects of landslides can be devastating. They can destroy homes, roads, bridges, and other infrastructure, disrupting communities and causing economic losses. Landslides can also result in loss of life, as people may be buried or trapped beneath the debris.Preventing landslides requires a combination ofmeasures, including land-use planning, slope stabilization, and early warning systems. Land-use planning involves identifying areas prone to landslides and implementing zoning regulations to restrict development in high-risk areas. Slope stabilization techniques, such as installing retaining walls, drainage systems, and vegetation cover, can help reduce the risk of landslides. Early warning systems, which monitor factors such as rainfall, ground movement, and seismic activity, can provide timely alerts to communities at risk, allowing them to evacuate safely.In conclusion, landslides are natural disasters that can have devastating consequences. They are often triggered by factors such as heavy rainfall, earthquakes, volcanic activity, or human activities like deforestation and construction. Preventing landslides requires a combination of measures, including land-use planning, slope stabilization, and early warning systems. By taking proactive steps to mitigate the risk of landslides, communities can reduce the impact of this destructive phenomenon.。

I know, I know, you're probably thinking "Here he goes again, nagging me about my lifestyle choices." But hear me out, because this isn't just another lecture. This is me, your friend, giving you some real talk about why you need to start taking your fitness seriously.Let's be honest, we're not getting any younger. Those days of eating whatever we wanted and never gaining a pound are long gone. Nowadays, it feels like just looking at a cheeseburger puts an extra inch on my waistline. And I know you've been feeling it too – the sluggishness, the lack of energy, the constant feeling of being out of shape.But it doesn't have to be this way, dude. We can turn things around, and it all starts with making exercise a regular part of our lives. I'm not talking about becoming hardcore gym rats or anything like that (unless you're into that sort of thing, nojudgment). Just simple, consistent physical activity can work wonders for our overall health and well-being.Think about it – when was the last time you felt truly energized, ready to take on the world? For me, it's been way too long. But I've started incorporating regular exercise into my routine, and let me tell you, the difference is night and day. After a good workout, I feel alive, like I can conquer anything that comes my way. And the best part? That feeling of accomplishment and pride in taking care of myself – it's addictive in the best possible way.And it's not just about the physical benefits, either. Exercise has been shown to do wonders for our mental health too. You know how sometimes we get caught up in our own heads, overthinking everything and stressing ourselves out? A good sweat session can be the perfect antidote to that. It's like hitting a reset button on our minds, allowing us to come back feeling refreshed, focused, and ready to tackle whatever life throws our way.But don't just take my word for it. Look at all the successful people out there who swear by the power of exercise. CEOs, athletes, celebrities – they all make time for it because they knowhow crucial it is for peak performance. And let's be real, we could all use a little more peak performance in our lives, am I right?So, what do you say, buddy? Are you ready to join me on this fitness journey? It doesn't have to be anything crazy – we can start small, with just a few sessions a week. Maybe we could even make it a thing, hitting the gym or going for a run together. Not only would it hold us accountable, but it would also give us a chance to catch up and have some good old-fashioned bro time.And who knows, maybe once we start feeling the benefits of regular exercise, we'll get inspired to take things to the next level. We could start trying different workout styles, like yoga or kickboxing, or even sign up for a local sports league. The possibilities are endless when you've got a solid foundation of fitness to build upon.Look, I get it – changing habits is tough, especially when it comes to something as fundamental as our daily routines. But think about how amazing it would feel to finally shed those extra pounds, to have more energy and confidence, to really start living our best lives. Isn't that worth pushing through the initial discomfort and making some sacrifices?At the end of the day, it all comes down to priorities. We can either keep coasting along, letting our health slowly deteriorate,or we can take control and make a conscious decision to invest in ourselves. And honestly, what could be more important than that?So, what do you say, buddy? Are you ready to get fit and start feeling like the best versions of ourselves? I'll be right there with you, every step of the way. Let's do this, man – for our health, for our happiness, and for the chance to finally feel like we're living life to the fullest.Your friend,[Your Name]篇2Title: Get Fit Through ExerciseDear friend,I know you've been feeling a bit down lately about your health and fitness levels. Believe me, I totally get it. With all the demands of school, work, family, and social life, it can be really tough to find the time and motivation to exercise regularly. But I'm writing to you today to encourage you to make a change and incorporate physical activity into your daily routine. Trust me, the benefits of exercise are absolutely worth the effort.Let's start with the obvious: exercise is crucial for maintaining a healthy body weight and preventingobesity-related health issues like heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers. I know you've been self-conscious about the extra pounds you've put on lately, and exercise is the most effective way to burn calories and shed those unwanted pounds. But it's not just about looking good on the outside – regular exercise also strengthens your cardiovascular system, improves muscle tone and flexibility, and boosts your overall energy levels. Imagine how much better you'll feel when you're not constantly feeling sluggish and out of shape!But the benefits of exercise go far beyond just physical health. Did you know that it can also have a profound impact on your mental well-being? Exercise releases endorphins, those natural feel-good chemicals in your brain, which can improve your mood and reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. In our increasingly stressful world, having a healthy outlet to relieve tension and clear your mind is absolutely invaluable.And let's not forget about the cognitive benefits of exercise. Regular physical activity has been shown to improve memory, concentration, and overall brain function. As students, we could definitely use all the help we can get in that department, am Iright? Exercise can also boost your self-confidence andself-esteem, as you start to feel better about your body and your ability to accomplish physical goals.Now, I know what you're thinking: "But I don't have time to go to the gym every day!" And that's totally understandable. But here's the thing – you don't have to engage in intense workouts or join a fancy gym to reap the benefits of exercise. Even small changes in your daily routine can make a big difference.For example, you could start by taking the stairs instead of the elevator whenever possible. Or you could go for a brisk walk during your lunch break or after dinner. Alternatively, you could try some simple bodyweight exercises like push-ups, squats, and lunges right in your own living room. The key is to find activities that you actually enjoy and that fit seamlessly into your lifestyle.And don't forget about the social aspect of exercise. Why not invite some friends to join you for a game of basketball, a hike in the local park, or even just a leisurely bike ride around the neighborhood? Not only will you be getting in some physical activity, but you'll also be strengthening your social connections, which are so important for overall happiness and well-being.I know that starting a new exercise routine can be intimidating, especially if you're not used to being active. Butremember, Rome wasn't built in a day. Start small and gradually increase the intensity and duration of your workouts as you become more comfortable. And don't be too hard on yourself if you slip up or miss a few days – just get back on track as soon as you can.Ultimately, the decision to make exercise a priority is up to you. But I truly believe that incorporating physical activity into your life will not only improve your physical health, but also your mental and emotional well-being. You deserve to feel your best, and exercise is a proven way to achieve that.So, what do you say, my friend? Are you ready to take the first step towards a healthier, happier you? I'll be right there with you, cheering you on every step of the way. Let's do this together!Your friend,[Your Name]篇3Title: The Road to Fitness: Embracing Exercise for a Healthier LifeDear friend,I hope this letter finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to share my thoughts and experiences regarding physical fitness and the transformative power of exercise. As someone who has witnessed firsthand the incredible benefits of an active lifestyle, I cannot emphasize enough the importance of making exercise a part of your daily routine.Let's start with the obvious: exercise is crucial for maintaining a healthy body weight and reducing the risk of obesity-related illnesses such as heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes. However, the advantages of regular physical activity extend far beyond just weight management. Exercise has been proven to have a profound impact on our overall well-being, both physically and mentally.Physically, exercise strengthens our cardiovascular system, improves muscle tone and flexibility, and enhances our endurance levels. It's like giving our bodies a tune-up, ensuring that all the intricate systems are operating at their optimal levels. Regular exercise can even help to alleviate chronic pain conditions, such as lower back pain and arthritis, by improving joint mobility and reducing inflammation.But the benefits of exercise aren't limited to just the physical realm. There is a wealth of scientific evidence that highlights thepositive impact of exercise on our mental health as well. Regular physical activity has been shown to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression, boost mood and self-esteem, and improve cognitive function and memory. It's like a natural antidepressant and mood enhancer, without the potential side effects of medication.Personally, I can attest to the transformative power of exercise on my own life. Just a few years ago, I found myself stuck in a sedentary lifestyle, feeling lethargic, and lacking motivation. It wasn't until I decided to take control of my health and incorporate exercise into my daily routine that I experienced a remarkable shift.At first, it was challenging to find the time and energy to exercise regularly. But as I persisted, I noticed a gradual improvement in my overall energy levels, mood, and confidence. The endorphins released during exercise became my natural high, leaving me feeling invigorated and accomplished after each workout session.Moreover, the discipline and dedication required to maintain an exercise routine spilled over into other aspects of my life. I found myself becoming more productive, focused, and betterable to manage stress. It was as if exercise had unlocked a hidden reservoir of resilience and determination within me.Now, I can't imagine my life without regular physical activity. Whether it's going for a brisk walk, hitting the gym, or participating in a group fitness class, exercise has become an integral part of my daily routine, a sacred ritual that nourishes my body, mind, and spirit.Friend, I understand that starting an exercise routine can be daunting, especially if you've been inactive for a long time. The thought of stepping into a gym or lacing up your running shoes can be intimidating. But I implore you to take that first step, no matter how small it may seem.Start slowly and gradually increase the intensity and duration of your workouts. Seek out activities that you genuinely enjoy, whether it's swimming, cycling, dancing, or joining a local sports team. The key is to find something that you look forward to and that doesn't feel like a chore.Remember, consistency is key. While it may be tempting to embark on an overly ambitious fitness regimen, it's essential to adopt a sustainable approach that you can realistically maintain over time. Consistency breeds habit, and habit breeds lifestyle change.Surround yourself with a supportive network of friends, family, or a fitness community that can encourage and motivate you along your journey. Having accountability partners can make a world of difference when the going gets tough.Lastly, be patient and celebrate your progress, no matter how small. Improving your physical fitness is a journey, not a destination. There will be setbacks and challenges along the way, but if you persevere and remain dedicated, the rewards will be immeasurable.Friend, I urge you to embrace the power of exercise and take control of your health and well-being. The road ahead may be challenging, but the benefits – improved physical health, mental clarity, and an overall sense of vitality – are well worth the effort. Trust me; your future self will thank you for taking this step towards a healthier, happier life.Wishing you the best of luck on your fitness journey,[Your Name]。

Mukai et al.also applied the ECAE technique to a Mg-3Al-1Zn-0.2Mn(AZ31B)alloy to further reduce the grain size to1µm.After annealing,this alloy exhibited a tensile elongation of more than 40%at room temperature[7].Such large elong-ation values cannot be expected if the basal slip system is the sole mechanism of plastic defor-mation.Moreover,the grain-size dependence of tensile elongation suggests that the effects of grain boundaries may play an important role in defor-mation at room temperature.The purpose of the present work is to understand characteristic deformation mechanisms of polycry-stalline alloys and to provide satisfactory interpret-ation of a large tensile ductility in the ECAE-pro-cessed alloys of AZ31B.We focused on investigating the evolution of deformation micro-structure with increasing tensile strain.Obtained results indicated that cross-slipping of a dislo-cations to non-basal planes was significantly active as a result of grain-boundary compatibility stresses and that dynamic recovery took place during ten-sile deformation.Thesefindings deviate substan-tially from traditional views of deformation mech-anisms and yield phenomena in Mg alloys and may pave a way for shape forming at ambient tempera-ture.2.Experimental procedureSamples were AZ31B Mg alloys having a chemical composition of Mg-3Al-1Zn-0.2Mn in wt.%.An ECAE process was carried out at473K for eight passes using a die with a90°channel.The ECAE-processed samples were annealed at573K for24h,followed by cooling to room temperature. Crystallographic texture distribution of the annealed sample was examined by an X-ray dif-fractometer(XRD)from two cross-sectional planes,one cut parallel to the extrusion direction and the other cut perpendicular to the extrusion direction.Tensile tests were performed at room temperature at a constant cross-head speed.Initial strain rate was set at1x10-3s-1.Tensile direction was parallel to the extrusion direction of the ECAE process.The microstructure was observed by a trans-mission electron microscope(TEM)after annealing,and after deformation to2%and to 16%.TEM samples were prepared by cutting the deformed samples perpendicular to the tensile axis. The cut disks were mechanically ground to less than100µm in thickness,followed by dimple-grinding the disk center to less than20µm in thickness.Finally,the samples were ion-milled to perforation at an ion accelerating voltage of3kV. Two types of TEM experiments were performed in several grains of different orientations.For thefirst type of experiment,Kikuchi diffraction patterns were taken from these grains at a sample tilt angle of0°.In this condition,an incident electron beam was parallel to the tensile axis.Analysis of the pat-terns provided the crystallographic orientation of the tensile axis as well as the direction of possible slip planes and slip directions for each grain.From the obtained orientation data,Schmid factors for the possible slip systems were calculated.Then,the following relation was used to estimate yield ani-sotropy[8]m NBSm BSϭm NBS sm BS sϭt NBSt BS.Here,s is the externally applied stress;t is the critical resolved shear stress;and m is the Schmid factor.The subscripts of NBS and BS represent,2057J.Koike et al./Acta Materialia 51(2003)2055–2065respectively,a non-basal slip system and a basal slip system.In the second type of TEM experiment,samples were tilted in such a way that the incident beamdirection was aligned parallel to either the [011¯0]direction or the [2¯110]direction.In this condition,the basal planes were set parallel to the incident electron beam direction.Dislocations in a basal-slip system could then be easily distinguished from those in a non-basal slip ly,dislo-cations parallel to a basal-plane trace were in the basal-slip system,whereas other dislocations were in the non-basal slip system.The length of dislo-cation segments in both basal and non-basal slip systems was measured from the TEM images to provide quantitative information of dislocation density in each slip system.3.Results3.1.Initial microstructure and mechanical propertiesFig.1shows XRD scans of a longitudinal sec-tion and a transverse section of

sampleBefore the deformation microstructure is shown,the magnitude of the yield anisotropy factor is presented first for all examined grains.The direc-tions of the tensile axes of the examined grains

slip systems of basal,prism,and pyramidal types.Yield anisotropy fac-tors are also listed in parentheses.In order to exam-ine the effects of the yield anisotropy factor on dis-location activity,the type and density of dislocations were investigated in all the listed samples.Among these,three representative cases,Nos.1,3and 6,are shown in Figs.5–7,respect-ively.All TEM images in Figs.5–7were taken under two-beam diffraction conditions using different diffraction vectors,g ,as indicated by arrows in the figures.No twins are observed in this sample.Based on the g țb criterion,all dislocations are vis-ible in (a).Dislocations having the a Burgers vec-tor are out of contrast in (b).Dislocations having the c Burgers vector are out of contrast in (c).The basal plane is aligned parallel to the incident beam direction,so that the basal plane can be seen edge-on.The basal-plane trace is indicated in each fig-ure.Under this condition,straight dislocation seg-ments lying parallel to the basal trace are in the basal-slip system.Otherwise,dislocations are in the non-basal slip systems.In Fig.5,the tensile direction is [011¯0],parallelJ.Koike et al./Acta

Materialia51(2003)2055–2065to the basal plane.Dislocations are visible in all three images taken under different two-beam con-ditions.Nearly all dislocation segments are not par-allel to the basal-plane trace.These results indicate that a major deformation mechanism in this grain is non-basal slip of a+c dislocations,which is in agreement with the large yield anisotropy factor listed in Table1.In Fig.6,the tensile direction is [549¯2].The yield anisotopy factor is merely2.5 for a+c pyramidal slip and2.2for a prism slip. Dislocations are invisible in(b)where g=0002. Thus,all the dislocations have Burgers vectors of the a type.Notice that the majority of dislocation segments are parallel to the basal-plane trace. However,the basal dislocation segments extend out of the basal-plane trace.These results indicate that the dislocations in this grain can cross-slip from the basal plane to non-basal planes.These cross-slipping dislocations are of a screw type with their Burgers vector being a.The activity of non-basal slip segments is surprising for the small yield anisotropy factors of2.5and2.2.In Fig.7,the tensile direction is[112¯2],and in this case the yield anisotropy factor is less than1.0.Dislocation seg-ments are straight and parallel to the basal-plane trace,and are out of contrast when g=0002. Therefore,only the basal slip system with the a Burgers vector is mainly active in this grain. Fig.8summarizes the results shown in Figs.5–7,including the other samples listed in Table1. The length of dislocation segments is measured by counting the number of intersecting points with a given number of parallel grid lines for the basal-slip system and for the non-basal slip system.The measured dislocation density values were scattered within±8%,based on repetitive counting of vari-ous regions of the image.The corresponding error bars are provided for the data points in thefigure. Types of Burgers vectors are also included in the figure.The vertical axis of thefigure indicates the ratio of the dislocation density of either basal or non-basal system to the total dislocation density, and the horizontal axis indicates the yield ani-sotropy factor.Thefigure shows that non-basal a +c dislocations are active only when the yield ani-sotropy factor satisfies the prescribed condition of more than100based on the single crystal data.On the other hand,non-basal a dislocations areunex-Fig.8.The ratio of non-basal(r NBS)or basal(r BS)dislo-cation density to the total

observed.4.Discussionpatibility stress and activation of non-basal slip systemsIn large-grained pure Mg and Mg alloys,twin-ning is observed from the early stage of plastic deformation and serves as an additional defor-mation mechanism to basal dislocation slip in order to satisfy the von-Mises criterion.In contrast,the fine-grained AZ31alloys investigated in the present work exhibit no noticeable twinning after deformation of 2%and exhibit some twinning after deformation of 16%.The difference in twinning tendency between the large-grained Mg samples and the fine-grained AZ31alloys is consistent with the fact that twinning becomes increasingly dif fi-cult with decreasing grain size [9].Then,additional dislocation mechanisms are needed in place of twinning in the fine-grained AZ31alloys.Cross-slip of a dislocations from basal to non-basal planes is observed at an elongation of 2%at a yield anisotropy factor of as small as 1.1.To date,non-basal dislocation slip has been considered to occur when the tensile axis is aligned nearly parallel to the basal planes so as to make resolved shear stress for basal slip nearly zero.Even when stress con-centration arises near grain boundaries and triple junctions,its magnitude in polycrystalline alloys is generally little more than ten times applied stress [10].This level of stress concentration would reduce the yield anisotropy factor to activate non-basal slip to approximately 10from a single crystal value of 100.Yet,the reduced value of 10is still larger by an order of magnitude than the value determined experimentally in the present work.In this section,we will discuss the activity of non-basal slip in terms of grain-size dependent com-patibility stress at grain boundaries.The effects of compatibility stress at grain boundaries have been investigated in detail in vari-ous bi-crystal samples.Hook and Hirth [11]reported that elastic compatibility stress can acti-vate secondary slip systems in Fe-3%Si.Meyer and2062J.Koike et al./Acta Materialia51(2003)2055–2065Ashworth[12]proposed that microyielding occursby elastic compatibility stress near grain bound-aries,forming workhardened layers.They utilized this model to explain the Hall-Petch relationship.In the case of Mg,however,elastic constants arehighly isotropic.For example,elastic anisotropy factors of Mg are C11/C33=0.96,C12/C13= 1.20,and CЈ/C44=1.02[13].Therefore,elastic compatibility stress can be neglected in Mg alloys.In contrast,plastic heterogeneity is very strong inMg alloys and may give rise to a large plastic com-patibility stress.The effects of plastic compatibility stress near a bi-crystal grain boundary have been investigated mainly in cubic metals[14–17]and in some cases in hcp Zn[18]and WC-Co[19]. Activation of the secondary slip systems by plastic compatibility stress has been well-established by the previous studies.A large plastic compatibility stress can thus be expected near grain boundaries of Mg alloys.Fig.10shows a schematic drawing to explainthe compatibility effects on the activation of non-basal glide systems in Mg alloys.Let us consider two separate grains of Mg under uniaxial tensile stress as shown in(a).Basal planes are oriented at 45°to the tensile axis in both grains,but are tilted by90°across the grain boundary.If only the basal slip systems are operated,two grains are deformed to a diamond shape as shown in(b).If the two deformed grains are to be bonded at a grain bound-ary,additional shear stresses(compatibility stresses)are needed,as indicated by arrows in(c), and activate the non-basal slip systems.This sug-gests that the basal slip systems cannot operate near grain boundaries unless the non-basal glide systems become active;otherwise,fracture would occur along grain boundaries.Since the density of mobile dislocations is expected to increase rapidly at this point,a clear stress-drop phenomenon appears as exemplified in Fig.3.Although twinning may be induced by compati-bility stress,the formation of interfaces requires anextra driving force.The energy of twin interfaces is,as described later,significantly large in Mg. This leads to the increasing difficulty in twin nucleation with decreasing grain size.For this rea-son,in a well-annealed andfine-grained alloy under the effects of the compatibility stress,we Fig.10.Schematic drawing of stressed bicrystals:(a)before deformation,(b)deformed condition without bonding along a grain boundary,and(c)Possible stress state in order to maintain contact between two grains along a grain boundary. consider that dislocation slip on basal and non-basal planes occurs before twinning occurs.Note that the non-basal a dislocations observed in the present work are not sufficient to ensure homo-geneous deformation;activation of a+c dislo-cations is still necessary to satisfy the von-Mises condition.In the2%-elongated sample,the a+c dislocations were actually observed but only in the limited grains having their basal planes parallel to the tensile axis.One possibility is that the a+c dislocations are activated by further deformation of2063 J.Koike et al./Acta Materialia51(2003)2055–2065more than2%.The a+c dislocations would thenbring about a rapid work hardening together withthe cross-slipping of a dislocations.Obara et al.[2] reported that in a single crystal Mg the a+c dislo-cations tend to dissociate to a and c segments.They attributed the observed work hardening to the formation of the immobile c dislocation segments.Whenflow stress increases to a certain level,twin-ning occurs as an additional deformation mech-anism even in afine-grained alloy.The role oftwinning in the present work is further discussed in the next section.Meanwhile,we will discusshow far from grain boundaries the compatibilitystress can influence dislocation slip in polycrystals. Margolin and Stanescu[20]measured the lengthof slip lines for the primary and secondary systemsin polycrystalline b Ti-Mn alloys.They found that the average length of the secondary slip linesadjacent to grain boundaries is approximately10µm,regardless of the variation of grain size from 49–94µm.In the present alloy,grain size is6.5µm.Cross-slip to non-basal planes is observed in the entire region of examined grains.The observed results can be explained if we consider that the dis-tance of the grain-boundary affected region in thepresent alloy is on the same order as the value reported by Margolin and Stanescu.The present observation suggests the following scenario with regard to yield stress and an apparent elastic deformation region of polycrystalline Mg alloys.We consider that plastic yielding can occur in the grain interior at a very small stress of several MPa.This marks microscopic yielding.Its appear-ance and magnitude in stress-strain curves depend on the grain size;i.e.the volume in which basal slip can occur without the influence of the compati-bility rge-grained alloys are expected to facilitate basal slip more easily than small-grained alloys,thus exhibiting a clear microscopic yielding at a very low stress.Therefore,a strong yield ani-sotropy in Mg prevents a large number of basal dislocations from slipping,rapidly increasingflow stress to a sufficiently high level to activate twin-ning for large-grained alloys but to activate non-basal slip systems forfine-grained alloys.This would mark macroscopic yielding,which has been often taken as a yield stress by many researchers. Thus,an apparently elastic portion of stress-strain curve before reaching the macroscopic yield stress is not a truly elastic portion;rather,it is a rapidly work-hardened region caused by the limited slip of basal dislocations under the influence of grain-boundary compatibility.In fact,in our separate work in AZ31[21],this portion of stress–strain curves before reaching a proof stress is strongly dependent on both strain rate and grain size; namely,on the extent of grain-boundary compati-bility effects.Accurate interpretation of yield phenomenon is extremely important when creep, fatigue,and damping experiments are performed. Further work is necessary to differentiate the microscopic and the macroscopic yield stresses and to understand their grain-size and texture depen-dence.4.2.Dynamic recovery and the role of twinning The microstructure of the16%-elongated sample showed recovered regions in the deformed matrix as well as within some twins.These results indicate that dynamic recovery can take place in Mg alloys during room-temperature deformation.Note that in the stress–strain curve(Fig.3)work hardening is followed by an apparently steady-state deformation behaviour with a nearly constantflow stress.Gen-erally,such a steady-state deformation is con-sidered to occur at elevated temperatures by a dynamic balance between hardening and softening effects.A supporting evidence of dynamic recov-ery was reported by Conrad and Robertson[22]in a single crystal Mg.They found that strain-harden-ing coefficient takes a constant value at defor-mation temperatures of78–203K,but at higher deformation temperatures,including room tem-perature,the coefficient was found to decrease with increasing deformation temperature.They attri-buted the softening to a recovery process.In another report,by Miller[23],creep was claimed to occur at room temperature.Although this report may turn out to lend further support for the occurrence of dynamic recovery at room tem-perature,the results should be interpreted carefully. To summarize the report,constant-load creep tests were performed up to100h at room temperature in die-cast AZ91alloys.Stress level was varied in the range of60–180MPa,including a0.2%proof。
