典型相关分析及其应用实例
摘要典型相关分析是多元统计分析的一个重要研究课题.它是研究两组变量之间相关的一种统计分析方法,能够有效地揭示两组变量之间的相互线性依赖关系.它借助主成分分析降维的思想,用少数几对综合变量来反映两组变量间的线性相关性质.目前它已经在众多领域的相关分析和预测分析中得到广泛应用.本文首先描述了典型相关分析的统计思想,定义了总体典型相关变量及典型相关系数,并简要概述了它们的求解思路,然后深入对样本典型相关分析的几种算法做了比较全面的论述.根据典型相关分析的推理,归纳总结了它的一些重要性质并给出了证明,接着推导了典型相关系数的显著性检验.最后通过理论与实例分析两个层面论证了典型相关分析的应用于实际生活中的可行性与优越性.【关键词】典型相关分析,样本典型相关,性质,实际应用ABSTRACTThe Canonical Correlation Analysis is an important studying topic of the Multivariate Statistical Analysis.

,CCA)作为多元统计学的一个重要部分,是相关分析研究的一个主要内容.典型相关分析不仅其方法本身具有重要的理论意义,而且它还可以作为其他分析方法,如多重回归、判别分析和相应分析的工具,因此在多元分析方法中占有特殊的地位.典型相关的概念是在两个变量相关的基础上发展起来的.我们知道,两个随机变量的相关关系可以用它们的简单相关系数来衡量;一个随机变量与一组随机变量之间的相关关系可以用复相关系数来衡量.但考虑一组随机变量与另一组随机变量的关系时,如果运用两个变量的相关关系,分别考虑第一组每个变量和第二组中每个变量的相关,或者运用复相关关系,考虑一组变量中的每个变量和另一组变量的相关,这样做比较繁琐,抓不住要领.因此,为了用比较少的变量来反映两组变量之间的相关关系,一种考虑的思路就是类似主成分分析,考虑两组变量的线性组合,从这两个线性组合中找出最相关的综合变量,通过少数几个综合变量来反映两组变量的相关性质,这样便引出了典型相关分析.典型相关分析的基本思想是首先在每组变量中找出变量的线性组合,使其具有最大相关性,然后再在每组变量中找出第二对线性组合,使其分别与第一对线性组合不相关,而第二对本身具有最大的相关性,如此继续下去,直到两组变量之间的相关性被提取完毕为止.有了这样线性组合的最大相关,则讨论两组变量之间的相关,就转化为只研究这些线性组合的最大相关,从而减少研究变量的个数.典型相关分析是由Hotelling于1936年提出的.就目前而言,它的理论己经比较完善,计算机的发展解决了典型相关分析在应用中计算方面的困难,成为普遍应用的进行两组变量之间相关性分析技术.如在生态环境方面,用典型相关理论对预报场与因子场进行分析,实现了短期气象预测;借助典型相关,分析了植被与环境的关系;在社会生活领域,应用典型相关分析了物价指标和影响物价因素的相关关系等等.第1章 典型相关分析的数学描述一般地,假设有一组变量p X X X ,,,21 与另一组变量q Y Y Y ,,,21 ,我们要研究这两组变量之间的相关关系,如何给两组变量之间的相关性以数量的描述.当q p 1时,就是我们常见的研究两个变量X 与Y 之间的简单相关关系,其相关系数是最常见的度量,定义为:)()(),(Y Var X Var Y X Cov xy当1 p ,1 q (或1,1 p q )时,p 维随机向量'21),(p X X X X ,设),(~1p N Y X , 22211211,其中,11 是第一组变量的协方差阵,12 是第一组与第二组变量的协方差阵,22 是第二组变量的协方差阵.则称221211121R 为Y 与p X X X ,,,21 的全相关系数,全相关系数用于度量一个随机变量Y 与另一组随机变量p X X X ,,,21 的相关系数.当1, q p 时,利用主成分分析的思想,可以把多个变量与多个变量之间的相关化为两个新的综合变量之间的相关.也就是做两组变量的线性组合即X X X X U p p '2211 Y Y Y Y V q q '2211其中,'21),,,(p 和'21),,,(q 为任意非零向量,于是我们把研究两组变量之间的问题化为研究两个变量V U 与之间的相关问题,希望寻求 ,使U ,V 之间最大可能的相关,我们称这种相关为典型相关,基于这种原则的分析方法就是典型相关分析.第2章 典型变量与典型相关系数2.1 总体典型相关设有两组随机变量'21),,,(p X X X X ,'21),,,(q Y Y Y Y ,分别为维维和q p 随机向量,根据典型相关分析的思想,我们用X 和Y 的线性组合X ' 和Y ' 之间的相关性来研究两组随机变量X 和Y 之间的相关性.我们希望找到

左乘方程(2.2.4)得22'21'11'12'S S S S 又 '12')( S 21'S 所以'12'21')(S S也就是说,正好等于线性组合U 与V 之间的相关系数,于是(2.2.4)式可写为:0022211112 S S S S 或 022211211S S S S(2.2.5) 而式(2.2.5)有非零解的充要条件是:022211211S S S S (2.2.6)该方程左端是的q p 次多项式,因此有q p 个根.求解的高次方程(2.2.6),把求得的最大的代回方程组(2.2.5),再求得 和 ,从而得出第一对典型相关变量.具体计算时,因的高次方程(2.2.6)不易解,将其代入方程组(2.2.5)后还需求解q p 阶方程组.为了计算上的方便,我们做如下变换:用12212 S S 左乘方程组(2.2.5)的第二式,则有12212 SS 21S -02212212S S S 即 12212 S S 21S = 12S又由(2.2.5)的第一式,得 1112S S代入上式: 12212 SS 21S 0112S(0)1122112212 S S S S (2.2.7)再用111 S 左乘式(2.2.7),得(111S12212 SS 0)221p I S (2.2.8)因此,对2有p 个解,设为22221p r r r ,对 也有p 个解.类似地,用11121 S S 左乘式(2.2.5)中的第一式,则有011111211211121S S S S S S (2.2.9)又由(2.2.5)中的第二式,得2221S S代入到(2.2.8)式,有 11121( SS 12S 0)222S再以122 S 左乘上式,得0)(21211121122q I S S S S (2.2.10)因此对2有q 个解,对 也有q 个解,因此2为111S 12212 S S 21S 的特征根, 是对应于2的特征向量.同时2也是1211121122S S S S 的特征根, 为相应特征向量.而式(2.2.8)和(2.2.10)有非零解的充分必要条件为:002121112112222112212111q p I S S S S I S S S S (2.2.11)对于(2.2.11)式的第一式,由于011 S ,022 S ,所以0111S ,0122 S ,故有:2112212111S S S S 2121221221221112111S S S S S S 而2121221221221112111S S S S S S 与2111211222122122111 S S S S S S 有相同的特征根.如果记T 12212111 S S S则 2111211222122122111S S S SS S='T T类似的对式(2.2.11)的第二式,可得T T S S SSS S'21221221112111212122而'T T 与T T '有相同的非零特征根,从而推出(2.2.8)和(2.2.10)的非零特征根是相同的.设已求得'T T 的p 个特征根依次为: 022221p则T T '的q 个特征根中,除了上面的p 个外,其余的p q 个都为零.故p 个特征根排列是021 p ,, 1210 p p ,因此,只要取最大的1 ,代入方程组(2.2.5)即可求得相应的1 ,1 .令U =X '1 与Y V '1 为第一对典型相关变量,而1'112'1),( S V U r 为第一典型相关系数.可见求典型相关系数及典型相关变量的问题,就等价于求解'T T 的最大特征值及相应的特征向量. 2.2.2 典型相关变量的一般解法从样本典型相关变量的解法中,我们知道求典型相关变量和典型相关系数的问题,就是求解'T T 的最大特征值及相应的特征向量.不仅如此,求解第k 对典型相关变量和典型相关系数,类似的也是求'T T 的第k 大的特征值和相应的特征向量.下面引用参考文献【2】中定理10.1.1 来得出样本典型相关的一般求法.设总体的n 次观测数据为:1)()()()( q p t t t Y X Z (n t ,,2,1 ) 不妨设q p ,样本均值为0,协方差矩阵S 为:22211211S S S SS 0 记2122122111S S ST ,并设p 阶方阵'T T 的特征值依次为022221p (p i i ,,1,0 );而p l l l ,,,21 为相应的单位正交特征向量.令 kk l S2111,k k k S S 211221则X U k k ',Y V kk '为Y X ,第k 对典型相关变量,'k为第k 典型相关系数. 由上述分析不难看出,典型相关系数i 越大说明相应的典型变量之间的关系越密切,因此一般在实际中忽略典型相关系数很小的那些典型变量,按i 的大小只取前n 个典型变量及典型相关系数进行分析. 2.2.3 从相关矩阵出发计算典型相关以上我们从样本协方差阵S 出发,导出了样本典型相关变量和样本典型相关系数.下面我们从样本相关阵R 出发来求解样本典型相关变量和样本典型相关系数.设样本相关阵为)(ij r R ,其中jj ii ij ij s s s r / ,ij s 为样本协方差阵S 的i 行j 列元素.把R 相应剖分为22211211R R R R R 有时,Y X 和的各分量的单位不全相同,我们希望在对各分量作标准化变换之后再做典型相关.记)(1X E ,)(2Y Epp s s D 00111q p q p p p

简单相关、复相关和典型相关之间的关系当1 q p , Y X 与之间的(惟一)典型相关就是它们之间的简单相关;当Y X q p 与时或,11 之间的(惟一)典型相关就是它们的复相关.复相关是典型相关的一个特例,而简单相关又是复相关的一个特例.从第一个典型相关的定义可以看出,第一个典型相关系数至少同)(Y X 或的任一分量与)(X Y 或的复相关系数一样大,即使所有这些复相关系数都很小,第一个典型相关系数仍可能很大;同样,从复相关的定义也可以看出,当1 p (或1 q )时,)()(X Y Y X 或与或之间的复相关系数也不会小于)()(X Y Y X 或与或的任一分量之间的相关系数,即使所有这些相关系数都很小,复相关系数仍可能很大.第4章 典型相关系数的显著性检验设总体Z 的两组变量'21),,,(p X X X X

生态批评
生态批评是一个言人人殊的话语体。
大多数人认同彻丽尔·格罗特费尔蒂的定义:“生态批评是探讨文学与自然环境之关系的批评。
”一般认为,“生态批评”这一概念由美国学者威廉·鲁克尔曼1978年首次提出,他的《文学与生态学:一次生态批评实验》文章在《衣阿华评论》1978冬季号上刊出,以“生态批评”概念明确地将“文学与生态学结合起来”。
1992年,“文学与环境研究会”在美国内华达大学成立。
1994年,克洛伯尔出版专著《生态批评:浪漫的想象与生态意识》,提倡“生态学的文学批评”(ecological literary criticism)或“生态学取向的批评”(ecological oriented criticism)。
1995年在科罗拉多大学召开了首次研讨会,会议部分论文以《阅读大地:文学与环境研究的新走向》为书名正式出版(1998)。
其后,生态批评的著作有如雨后春笋般地充斥文论界。
[3]1996年美国第一本生态批评论文集《生态批评读本》由格罗特费尔蒂和弗罗姆主编出版,其宗旨在于“分别讨论生态学及生态文学理论、文学的生态批评和生态文学的批评”,使得生态批评更具有文学批评的特征和范式。
在导言中格罗特费尔蒂(Cheryll Glotfelty)给生态批评加以定义:“生态批评研究文学与物理环境之间的关系。
正如女性主义批评从性别意识的视角考察语言和文学,马克思主义批评把生产方式和经济阶级的自觉带进文本阅读,生态批评运用一种以地球为中心的方法研究文学。
”1998年英国第一本生态批评论文集《书写环境:生态批评与文学》在伦敦出版,分生态批评理论、生态批评的历史、当代生态文学三个部分。
这本由克里治和塞梅尔斯主编的著作认为:“生态批评要探讨文学里的环境观念和环境表现”。
1999年夏季的《新文学史》是生态批评专号,共发表十篇专论生态批评的文章,2000年出版的生态批评著作主要有默菲教授主编的论文集《自然取向的文学研究之广阔领域》,托尔梅奇等主编的《生态批评新论集》,贝特的《大地之歌》等。
Canoncial+Correlation+Analysis
Canoncial Correlation Analysis on the Relationship Between China's Transportation Industry and National Economic DevelopmentLI WeidongSchool of Economics & Management,Beijing Jiaotong University, P.R.China,100044 Abstract: Canonical correlation analysis method is used to analyze the quantitative relationship between China’s transportation industry and national economic development. At first, literature overview for the research on the relationship between transportation industry and national economic development is taken. Then as the result of the complexity of transportation industry and national economy system, the index systems that reflect the development of transportation and economic development are designed. The transportation index system includes the indicators of transport turnover volume. Economic development indicators consist of gross national product of different industries. Then, based on data collection of above indicators from 1952 to 2007, canoncial correlation analysis method is used to analyze the relationship between the transportation and national economic development. The results show that there are strong correlation between the China’s transportation industry and national economic development. The highway traffic and railway traffic have contributed greatly to the national economic development.Key words: national economic development, canoncial correlation analysis,transportation industry1 IntroductionTransportation industry is one of the important basic industries in national economy. Undoubtedly highway transportation industry plays an important role in national economic development. Domestic and foreign scholars have studied on the relationship between highway transportation industry and national economic development and obtained some useful conclusions.At first, the research of relationship between the transportation industry and national economic development mainly focused on the highway transport's contribution to national economic development. From the traditional view, transportation has a strong impact on the development of the national economy. With the improvement of transport conditions national production growth is promoted greatly. The positive relationship between transportation and national economic development can be divided into direct transport input effect and the indirect effect which includes multiplier effect. Good transportation conditions provide a lower cost of transportation. So the market scope and scale of production are expanded[1]. The indirect effects comes from the transport infrastructure construction and the creation of employment opportunities in transportation services operation. In addition, it includes multiplier effect of huge investment in construction of a modern transport system in need of steel, wood, cement,etc. Therefore, transportation is a necessary condition but not sufficient condition to economic development.In China many research about the relationship between the transportation and national economy has been conducted, such as Huang Zhendong(1993)[2],Rong Chaohe(1993)’s transportatioinalized theory[3], Hanbiao(1994) ‘s push-pull theory[4] and Xiong Rongjun(1997)’s transportation cost threshold theory[5]. Wang Chuanxu(2004) discussed on the contribution of transportation to national economy[6]. Wang Libin,Wu Qunqi(2006) discussed on the contribution of highway investment to national economy[7]. Domestic and foreign scholars mainly focus on the qualitative relationship between transportation industry and national economic development. But the quantitative research is still a little. In this paper canoncial correlation method is used to analyze the relationship between the transportation industry and national economic development.2 Principles of Canoncial correlation AnalysisCanonical correlation analysis is developed by H.Hotelling in 1936. Canonical correlation analysis (CCA) is an extension of examining the maximum correlation relationship between the dependent variable and a linear combination of the independent variables. Canonical correlations measure the association between two sets of two or more independent variables[8].Canonical correlations are actually the maximum correlation between a linear combination of the dependent variables and a linear combination of the independent variables.It conducts a multiple regression with each set of variables and so creates a linear combination or variate – which is called a canonical variate - for each of the two sets.The technique uses an iterative or repeating process to create the canonical variates for each set of variables, with the goal of finding the correlation of the two canonical variates that is as large as possible. That is, it calculates a ‘starting guess’ version of the linear variate for each set of variables, correlates the two variates, then adjusts the canonical loadings in one or both variates and calculates the correlation again, then adjusts, then calculates, etc., until it finds the loadings that generate the linear variates for each set that result in the highest possible correlation, i.e., when no more adjustments will raise that number.3 Empirical analysis on relationship between China's transportation industry and national economic development3.1Data sourcesThere are five transportation modes which include railway, highway,waterway, civil avaition and pipeline. Because the data of pipeline data is lost in the period of 1952-1970, so we focused on the railway, highway,waterway, civil avaition transportation. To reflect the relationship between transportation industry and national economic development, the passenger traffic turnover volume and freight traffic turnover volume of each transportation mode are chosen to describe the basic development of transportation situation. These index system includes the railway passenger traffic turnover volume(X1), highway passenger traffic turnover volume (X2),waterway passenger traffic turnover volume(X3), civil avaition passenger traffic turnover volume(X4) , railway freight traffic turnover volume (X5), highway freight traffic turnover volume (X6),waterway freight traffic turnover volume (X7), civil avaition freight traffic turnover volume (X8) .There are many indice to reflect the national economic development. GDP of different industry is chosen to reflect the development of national economy. The index system includes GDP of primary industry (Y1), GDP of manufacturing industry (Y2), GDP of construction industry (Y3), GDP of tertiary industry (Y4).The time period is from 1952 to 2007. Here GDP is adjusted with the consumer price index of 1978 as the base period (GDP). Data sources is from the "Summary of New China 50 years’ Statistical Data" and 2005-2008 "China Statistical Yearbook." Freight traffic turnover volume of (unit: 100 million t · km) refers to the total sum of cargo weight multiply by its corresponding distance in a certain period. Passenger traffic turnover volume(unit: 100 million person kilometers) refers to the total sum of passenger number multiply by its corresponding distance in a certain period. The turnover considers the traffic flow and transport distance. It can provide comprehensive understanding of China's transportation industry.3.2Explorative analysis with canoncial correlation analysisAt first, canoncial correlation analysis is taken to the total period (1952-2007).Considering the great difference between the development periods of 1952-1977 and after 1978, then the analysis is taken in the two different periods seperately. Based on the SAS procedure CANCORR, canoncial correlation analysis is taken for the two sets of indice to reflect the transportation and national economy.3.2.1Total period (1952-2007)The results for the canonical correaltions are shown in Table 1. It can be found that the first three pair canoncial correlation coefficient are rather high. The p-value for the canoncial correlationcoefficient are all less than 0.05. The test results indicate that the correlation coeffcient of the four pairof canoncial variate are all significant. Obviously the values of the first three canoncial correlationcoefficients is near to 1. Through the Table 1 it is also found that first pair of canoncial variate canexplain the over 94.8% proportion of variance of data sets. So the first pair canoncial correlation variatesis representative. That shows the canoncial correlation analysis results is rather satisfactory.Table 1 Canonical correlations and function testCorrelations Eigenvalue Difference Proportion Cumulative Pr 10.9976 211.7601 204.7338 0.9483 0.9483 <.0001 20.9356 7.0263 3.1965 0.0315 0.9798 <.0001 30.8904 3.8297 3.1449 0.0172 0.9969 <.0001 4 0.6375 0.6848 0.0031 1.0000 0.5935 0.0001Null hypothesis: remaining correlations are zero.The first pair of canoncial functions is constructed as follows:112345670.410 2.1210.0590.0320.2960.540.3830.135U X X X X X X X =−+−++−−−112341.8440.9250.118 2.034V Y Y Y Y =−+−+8X (1)From the standardized coefficients of the first pair of canoncial functions, it is found that themain factors of transportation is highway passenger traffic turnover volume (X 2), railway freight trafficturnover volume (X 5). The main factor of national economy is GDP of tertiary industry (Y 4), GDP ofmanufacturing industry (Y 2). The results show that development of tertiary industry is mainly influencedby the railway freight traffic, highway passenger traffic.Table 2 Correlations Between the original y variables and the canonical variablesy 1 y 2 y 3 y 4 V 10.9873 0.984 0.9682 0.9958 U 1 0.985 0.9817 0.966 0.9934Table 3 Correlations Between the original x variables and the canonical variablesx 1 x 2x 3 x 4 x 5 x 6 x 7 x 8 V 1 0.94420.98830.10450.94120.93410.97040.9352 0.9434 U 1 0.9420.986 0.10430.939 0.93190.96810.933 0.9412From the results of Table 2 and 3, canonical structure analysis can be taken as follows.From thecanonical loadings of the canoncial function, it is found that the U 1 is highly correlated with all Xvariables except X 3. V 1 is highly positively correlated with all Y variables. Also it is found that V 1 ishighly correlated with all X variables except X 3. U 1 is highly positively positively correlated with all Yvariables. So the first pair of canoncial function can represent the original data sets most effectively.Because the first pair of canoncial variate can explain the variance of the data most efficently, themain factors of transportation industry includes highway passenger traffic turnover volume (X 2), railwayfreight traffic turnover volume (X 5).The main factors of national economy includes GDP of tertiaryindustry (Y 4) and GDP of manufacturing industry (Y 2). Above results show that there are strongcorrelation between the China’s transportation industry and national economic development.3.2.2Planning economy period (1952-1977)The results for the canonical correaltions are shown in Table 4. It can be found that the first twopair canoncial correlation coefficient are rather high. The p-value for the canoncial correlation coefficient are all less than 0.05. The test results indicate that the correlation coeffcient of the two pairsof canoncial variate are all significant. Obviously the values of the first two canoncial correlationcoefficients is near to 1. Through the Table 4 it is also found that first pair of canoncial variate canexplain 90.9% proportion of variance of data sets. So the first pair of canoncial correlation variable ischosen to represent the relationship between transportation and national economy. That shows thecanoncial correlation analysis results is rather satisfactory.Table 4 Canonical correlations and function testCorrelations Eigenvalue Difference Proportion Cumulative Pr1 0.989145.0953 41.7252 0.9099 0.9099 <.0001 2 0.87823.3701 2.6277 0.068 0.9779 0.0038 3 0.65270.7423 0.3883 0.015 0.9929 0.2037 4 0.5113 0.354 0.0071 1 0.7385 0.3491Null hypothesis: remaining correlations are zero.The first pair of canoncial functions is constructed as follows:112345670.479 1.5160.4170.26 1.022 1.900.0250.524U X X X X X X X =+−−+−−+112340.265 1.1010.0720.042V Y Y Y Y =−+−+8X (2)From the standardized coefficients of the first pair of canoncial functions, it is found that the mainfactors of transportation is highway passenger traffic turnover volume (X 2), railway freight trafficturnover volume (X 5).

V 1 is positively correlated with Y 1,Y 2 and Y 4 and negatively correlated with Y 3. Also it isfound that V 1 is positively correlated with all X variables. U 1 is highly positively correlated withY 2 ,Y 1,Y 4 and negatively correlated with Y 3. So the first pair of canoncial function can represent theoriginal data sets most effectively.3.2.3Reform and opening-up period (1978-2007)The results for the canonical correaltions are shown in Table 7. It can be found that the first threepair canoncial correlation coefficient are rather high. The p-value for the canoncial correlation coefficient are all less than 0.05. The test results indicate that the correlation coeffcient of the first threepairs of canoncial variate are all significant. Obviously the values of the first three canoncialcorrelation coefficients is near to 1. Through the Table 1 it is also found that first pair of canoncialvariate can explain the over 94.8% proportion of variance of data sets. So the first pair of canoncialcorrelation variate is representative.

In planning economy period, the main factor of national economy is GDPof manufacturing industry (Y 2).The main factors of transportation is highway passenger traffic turnovervolume (X 2), railway freight traffic turnover volume (X 5). They are highly correlated. But in the reformand opening-up period of 1978-2007, it is found that the main factor of national economy is GDP oftertiary industry (Y 4). The main factor of transportation is highway passenger traffic turnover volume(X 2).The results are consistent with the fact that China has changed economic structure greatly frommanufacturing industry to tertiary industry. Also it is found that in planning economy the highwaypassenger traffic and railway freight traffic had played the most important role in national economic development. In the period of 1978-2007, highway passenger traffic had become the most important traffic mode in the development of tertiary industry. The highway traffic and railway traffic have contributed greatly to the national economic development. Therefore, governments at all levels and the whole society should implement active policies for the development of transportation industry espiecially for the highway industry and railway industry in order to achieve sustained economic growth in the current period..References[1]Xu Qingbin,Rong Chaohe,Mayun,etc.Introductionary transportation economics[M].

Social dimensions of syntactic variation-- the case of when clauses
Social dimensions of syntactic variation: the case of when clausesJenny CheshireIntroductionPeter Trudgill and Jack Chambers hoped that their 1991 volume on grammatical variation in English dialects would stimulate further research into the grammar of nonstandard dialects and the nature of grammatical variation in language (1991:295-6). Since the publication of that volume there has been a good deal more research on these topics, from theoretical linguists as well as sociolinguists, and even from a collaboration between the two (for example, Henry and Wilson 1998). Mainly, however, researchers have focused on language internal constraints on variation, and the social dimension of grammatical variation has remained less studied. It has been argued, in fact, that syntactic variation is conditioned less by social factors than by internal, cognitive and situational constraints (see, for example, Rydén 1991, Scherre and Naro 1992), and that syntactic variation may rarely, if ever, serve the function of distinguishing social groups in the way that 'classic' phonological and morphological variants do (Winford 1996: 188, Hudson 1996:45). One reason for this would be the infrequency of syntactic forms relative to phonological or morphological variants: since syntactic variants are less frequently heard, they are presumably less likely to become associated with a specific social group and to function as sociolinguistic indicators or markers. But until we have clear evidence of the social patterning of syntactic variants in different communities, or the lack of such patterning, we cannot draw any firm conclusions about the relationship between syntactic variation and the social world.Discovering the social dimension of syntactic variation is, of course, less straightforward than for phonological and morphological variation. There are several methodological and conceptual problems, some of which are mentioned by Trudgill and Chambers, as we will see. In this paper I focus on some of these problems, suggesting the kinds of methodological procedures that might help resolve them. I will use as illustrative material an analysis of one type of clause found in conversations between 12-16 year old working class adolescents in Reading, Berkshire, recorded in adventure playgrounds during a nine-month period of participant observation1. This analysis will show that syntactic variation can be intricately involved in the construction of social meaning, but that the involvement is of a different kind from that of phonological and morphosyntactic variation.Lone when clausesAn initial difficulty in the analysis of syntactic variation lies in deciding what to analyse, as grammatical variants often evade the conscious awareness of speakers and listeners. Chambers and Trudgill point out that they are less easily disassociated from the discoursethan phonological variants and are not readily subject to paralinguistic comments or observations. Furthermore,contextual cues, felicity conditions and implicatures disguise (or perhapscompensate for) unusual syntactic structures in a conversation, whether thosestructures are the result of performance factors (false starts, ellipses, blends) ordialect differences (op.cit.: 292).The clause type that I will discuss in this paper seems a clear example of an unusual syntactic structure that may be overlooked. I did not notice it until I had decided to focus specifically on an analysis of the clause structures used by the adolescent speakers. For this it was necessary to work closely with the transcripts of the playground conversations, identifying every instance of a non-canonical clause, including any that could be attributed to performance factors. One such non-canonical clause is an adverbial clause introduced by when, with no accompanying main clause. I will refer to these clauses as lone when clauses. Extract 1 provides one illustration: other examples are given later in the paper.Extract 1 (the boys are talking about one of their teachers, who was married to someone I knew)Nobby: yeah Miss Threadgold she ain't badRob:yeah she she went camping with usJenny:yes he told me she'd been camping→Nobby:when we went campingRob:she's a good laughJenny:is she?Nobby:yeah(DAVE -do you think this is OK - 'Miss Threadgold' is a pseudonym for Miss Trudgill -Peter's first wife, who was these boys' teacher! Do you think this is too cheeky?)There are 28 lone when clauses in this data set, in a corpus of 50,000 words - not many, but enough for them not to be attributable to performance factors. Interestingly, this figure represents a far higher proportion of unaccompanied when clauses than the literature would lead us to expect. Lone when clauses account for 25 per cent of all when clauses in the playground conversations: there are 105 when clauses in total, 77 of which have an accompanying main clause. By comparison, in Ford's corpus of adverbial clauses in American English (see Ford 1993) only 3 per cent of the total number of temporal adverbial clauses had no main clause (there were only 2, in 63 temporal clauses). Furthermore, in Ford's data temporal clauses were the least likely to occur with no main clause: conditional clauses were the most frequent, although even so there were only 8 of these (15 per cent), from the total of 52 conditional clauses. Similarly, Mondorf's analysis (2000) of adverbial clauses in the London-Lund corpus found only 6 per cent of adverbial clauses with no main clause (259, out of 4462 clauses); again, these were mainly conditional clauses. The temporal clauses in Ford's study were introduced with a range oftime adverbs, of which when just one (Mondorf did not analyse temporal clauses). The frequency of lone when clauses in the Reading data set, then, marks them as an unusual phenomenon that is worth further analysis.Explicatory lone when clausesThe next step in the analysis was to identify the discourse functions of the lone when clauses. Four of them were used to explain something that had been mentioned in the previous discourse. In extract 1, for example, the discussion is about the excursions that the playground leader, Sue, organises. Mandy has trouble finding the word she wants to describe the destination of the next excursion, and after unsuccessful attempts by others as well as by herself she finally explains what she is referring to with her when clause. Extract 1Terry:Sue's given lots of outings…first one was Chessington ZooJenny:was it good?Terry: yeahMandy:next one is the ludo thing ain't itPaul:not a ludoMandy:judoJenny:judo?→Mandy:not a judo! when you're on a water chute and you go right in the ...er water.. you goes right down into the waterJenny:like a water chute thing?Mandy:yesSimilarly, in extract 2 Rob explains how Britt (another playground leader) tries to control her mind, providing a time frame for a specific situation that illustrates what she does: Extract 2Rob:and Britt she's queer = = she's trying to learn to control her mind Nobby: = yeah =Rob:whatever that meansJenny:is she?Rob:[yeahNobby:[yeahJenny:oh how is she going to what is she doing to conNobby: I don't know→Rob: when you look at smoke and that you know fire =Jenny: = yeahNobby:she looks at a flame she's. you can look at . she's trying to look at a flame until it burns right outJenny:and then w. how does that control your mind?Rob:I don’t knowThis interactional function of the lone when clauses corresponds in some respects to a function that has been previously noted for initial adverbial temporal clauses. Ford (1993:29, 32), for example, notes that initial when clauses can explicate a semantically broad term such as thing or then. In her data, however, the explication occurs within an extended speaker turn; she argues, in fact, that the use of the semantically broad terms contributes to the projection of extended turns. In the Reading data, the four lone when clauses are explicatory but they do not project an extended turn. Instead, they clarify a term that the emerging discourse shows to be ambiguous, or too vague for present purposes, or otherwise problematic. They occur in response to an question from another speaker, and the turn in which they occur is typically short, as are the subsequent turns. It is not only the lone when clauses that are used in this way: initial when clauses sometimes serve this purpose too, as in Ford's corpus. Initial when clauses with this function, though, bear a superficial resemblance to lone when clauses, since they are separated from their main clause by intervening speaker turns. For example, in extract 3, the when clause explicates the ambiguity of Sharon's pronominal referent she.Extract 3Julie:oh don’t kick her Tina!Sharon:did she hurt?Jenny: who? that little one?→Sharon:no her …when she kicked youJenny:oh her..not very hardJulie: that's what she's always doing…kicking everyoneJulie had told her younger sister Tina (too late!) not to kick me. I had not heard her say this and as I had previously needed to safeguard the tape recorder from a small child who tripped as she was running past and fell on me, I thought Sharon's question did she hurt might refer to that event. Sharon's when she kicked you then makes it clear that her question was about Tracy's kick rather than the other event. Thus the sequence can be seen as did she hurt when she kicked you, with the when clause separated from the main clause by my intervening turn, in which I show that I had not understood who Sharon's she referred to. The function of the when clause is to explicate the ambiguity: Sharon clarifies the referent with her no her and then provides further clarification by indicating the specific time frame with the when clause.Extract 4 provides a further example. Here Nick corrects my assumption that the shop he had previously mentioned was in Reading, adding when I went down town to what can be analysed as the main clause it was in his previous turn. The when clause gives precision, then, to the vague quite a long way.Extract 4Jenny: which shop was that?Nick:oh it was quite a long wayJenny:in Reading was it or…Nick: no when I went downtownPivotal lone when clausesThe remaining 22 lone when clauses have a different function: and unlike the explicatory lone when clauses they initiate an extended turn, usually a narrative of personal experience. There is an example of this in extract 5, from a conversation between two girls, Valerie and Christine, and one boy, Tommy:Extract 5Jenny:you have to do horrible jobs if you’re a nurse.. all the bed pansAll:<LAUGHTER>Jenny:have you ever been in hospital?Valerie:[I haveChristine:[oh yeah I haveValerie:I got run over by a carChristine:I fell off a gate backwards <LAUGHS> and I was unconscious→Tommy:oi when I.. when I went in hospital just for a little while…Valerie: sshhh Tommy:cos my sister and my cousin they bent my arm ..they twisted it right round Here a discussion about nursing as a possible career prompted me to ask whether they had ever been in hospital. Valerie and Christine each take brief turns to mention one occasion when they were taken to hospital. Tommy also mentions an occasion when he went to hospital, but he prefaces this with a lone when clause (also with an attention-getting oi!). This is interpreted by the other speakers as an indication that he intends to take an extended turn, as we see from the fact that Valerie compliantly tells her younger sister to be quiet; and Tommy goes on to tell the story of his stay in hospital.Lone when clauses were also used to initiate and mark a sequence of 'joint remembering' (see Edwards and Middleton 1986), where two or more friends go over scenes from a favourite TV show or film that they have all seen. Here they do sometimes project an extended turn, in which the speaker talks about a specific part of the film; often, however, they initiate a stretch of co-constructed talk where the speakers together relive their enjoyment of the event. Extract 6 illustrates this: it is part of a long sequence where four friends are discussing The Hunchback of Notre Dame, a film that had been shown on television recently (this is discussed in more detail in Cheshire 1999). The short extract contains three lone when clauses, all of which mention specific sections of the film that the speaker has enjoyed. The first nomination, from Johnny, is successful, as thefollowing turns show. Darren's bid is not at first successful: he stumbles momentarily, and the floor is immediately taken by Patsy, who proposed a different topic. Her topic is not taken up by the other speakers, however – Nicky, in his turn, shows that he does not think much of this episode – and Darren seizes the opportunity to continue recounting his favourite scene, adding detail to increase speaker and hearer involvement and to justify the telling.Extract 6Patsy: I thought he was gonna fall when he was treading on the em er edge→Johnny: when he was on them bloody bells swinging about and he Patsy: yeahknocked..and he knocked his master down didn't he from thegalleries…woo crash!→Darren: when he was gonna em→Patsy when he told that girl he was deaf .. he got deaf by the ...that bell = = I knowNicky: = but he was still there =Jenny: was that on the telly?All: yeahDarren: I saw it in colour..you could really see the bloodPatsy:[Darren…don't put me offNicky:[I was gonna see it againDarren:and I see this blood went slu-u-urp <DRAWLS> all come out .. I see it all come out of his mouthNicky:it was horribleAgain, this function of the lone when clauses corresponds to an interactional function noted by Ford for initial adverbial clauses in initial position: they form pivotal points in the development of talk and present explicit background for material that follows (1993:62). Like initial temporal clauses in Ford's corpus, they project an extended speaker turn. Initial when clauses can also have this function in the Reading conversations, as illustrated by extract d. Thus, as with the explicatory lone when clauses, the function of what I will term pivotal lone when clauses is shared by conventional adverbial when clauses.It is interesting that the lone when clauses in the Reading conversations correspond in their functions to what other researchers have noted for initial temporal clauses, but the fact that there are so many unaccompanied when clauses in the Reading conversations is puzzling. And although other researchers have assumed that it is possible to infer a main clause from the context for unaccompanied adverbial clauses, it is not usually possible to unambigously do so here (what, for example, could be inferred as the main clause for the when clauses in extracts 5 and 6?).A simple breakdown in terms of the gender of the speakers who use lone when clauses points to a further unexpected phenomenon: as Table 1 shows, pivotal lone when clausesare used far more frequently by male speakers than female speakers. There is no gender difference, however, in the use of explicatory lone when clauses.Table 1. Lone when clauses used by male and female speakers in the playgroundconversations______________________________________________________________________male speakers female speakerspercentage tokens percentage tokens total number of tokens pivotal lone when clauses91.7 228.3 224explicatory lone when clauses * 3 * 1 4total * 25 * 3 2_______________________________________________________________________________________________ * Numbers of tokens are too low for a percentage to be viableI then listened to all the lone when clauses in the audio recordings: this revealed that pivotal lone when clauses are distinguished from explicatory lone when clauses, and indeed, from all other when clauses, by a characteristic intonation contour. They are distinct in having level tones on every syllable except the last: this has a falling tone, and is slightly drawled.Pivotal lone when clauses, then, differ in form from the other when clauses in the data set, both in their lack of a main clause and in their characteristic intonation; yet their interactional function appears to be no different from that of conventional initial when clauses (and of initial temporal clauses introduced by other temporal conjunctions; see Ford 1993). They seem, then, to be candidates for a variationist analysis. We could set up a sociolinguistic variable for which pivotal lone when clauses would be one variant, and another variant would be when clauses with an accompanying main clause and the same interactional function. Pivotal lone when clauses could then be seen as sociolinguistic indicators, used predominantly by male speakers in these groups of friends. If we assume that the variants with a main clause are 'standard' forms and the pivotal lone when clauses are nonstandard (because they lack a main clause), we could interpret the variation as a manifestation of the well-attested sociolinguistic gender pattern, where female speakers use more 'standard' forms. This would also confirm the view that female speakers tend to delete less material than male speakers, and so are less redundant, more formal and more polite (Shibamoto 19 ). Syntactic variation, we could then say, serves to distinguish social groups in the same way as classic phonological and morphological variables.This approach, however, ignores two major problems associated with the analysis of syntactic variation. First, it does not address the question of what is 'standard' in spoken English apart from what is prescriptively defined in this way (Milroy and Gordon 2002: 185). Prescriptivists have nothing to say about adverbial clauses without a main clause, perhaps because they are good examples of forms that occur infrequently and so are not noticed (again, see Chambers and Trudgill 1991: 292), or perhaps because they occur only in specific settings or with specific groups of speakers. Second, seeing lone when clauses as an alternant to conventional when clauses is not necessarily the most appropriate way to conceptualise the variation in which the lone when clauses areinvolved. In this analysis I have been considering lone when clauses to be adverbial clauses, in line with both Ford's and Mondorf's analysis of clauses with no accompanying main clause. . But this relies on conventional frameworks of grammatical analysis, and these frameworks are heavily influenced by the form of written language. They may not, therefore, always provide the most appropriate categories for the forms that occur in spoken language. The functions of the lone when clauses overlap with some that have been reported for initial adverbial clauses, as we have seen, but adverbial clauses are, by definition, part of a main clause (Biber et al 1999: 194, Quirk et al 1985:1047). Lone when clauses can be considered part of a main clause only if we assume that a main clause is ellipted, but we have already seen that it would require a large stretch of the imagination to see many of the lone when clauses in this way.There are no other grammatical frameworks that point to alternative ways of conceptualising the variation. I had thought that Biber et al's (1999) grammar would be helpful, since this is based partly on spoken English: indeed, unlike other reference grammars it does include clause structures common in conversation. One such structure is an unembedded dependent clause (op.cit.: 223-4). However, the lone when clauses discussed here do not fit the description of this type of clause. The most important types, according to Biber et al, do not occur in turn initial position: instead, they allow speakers to add explanation or justification to what has already been said or to express a comment about what has been said. The lone when clauses occur in turn initial position, are structurally independent, and their interactional function, as we have seen, is to project an extended turn or propose a topic for joint remembering: the when simply points to the event that is proposed as the topic.A way forward is to look not merely at the form and the interactional function of the lone when clause but also at the content of the clause, to see what kind of events are pointed to by the when clause. We have already seen that sometimes the event is part of a film or TV show that the speakers have all seen and enjoyed: in the extended turn that follows the speakers, through their talk, relive their enjoyment. Looking at the narratives of personal experience that are introduced by a lone when clause showed that here too the narrative can often be seen to be about an event that is familiar to the other speakers, either because they took part in the events being narrated, or because the story is one that they have heard before. This is clear from the beginning of the narrative in extract 7, where the when clause is uttered with the characteristic intonation of the pivotal when clauses (with a falling tone on Wight) and the you know indicates that this is a familiar story (as does Alec's response).Extract 7Jeff:when we went to the Isle of Wight though [you knowAlec: [fucking hell he fell in loads of stinging nettles and the way he cried mate "oh God oh God oh God" Jeff: yesNarratives of this kind too, therefore, are a form of joint reminiscing. As other researchers have observed, retelling familiar stories is a way of reinforcing group membership, allowing participants to relive common experiences and confirming a shared long-term bond (Norrick 1997: 211).The question that needs to be answered now, then, is why male adolescents should use lone when clauses in this way while female speakers do not. In other words, does the lone when clause function simply as a sociolinguistic indicator, indexing the fact that the speaker is male, or does it indicate that male speakers in the adventure playgrounds propose familiar topics for their narratives or initiate sequences of joint remembering more frequently than female speakers do? If so, what are the male speakers accomplishing through this aspect of their talk? Further, is this something that the female speakers do not accomplish, or do they accomplish it using different linguistic means? These questions take us a long way from the analysis of syntactic variation, for it now becomes necessary to explore the narrative sequences that occur in the conversations. It is necessary, however, to follow this trail in order to discover why the gender difference might exist. SKIRTS COULD BE MENTIONED HERE…..The narrative analysis that I carried out is reported in Cheshire (2000). I will mention the main conclusions only briefly, in order to focus on the role of the linguistic variation in which the lone when clauses are involved. Analysing all the narratives in the 50,000 word corpus would have taken more time than was available, so it was necessary to be selective. The playground conversations are varied in nature: some have more narratives than others, some include more speakers than others. However, several of the lone when clauses used to introduce a narrative or reminiscence came from conversations where there were several boys talking to each other, so I chose for detailed analysis the three all-male conversations with the highest number of narratives and, similarly, the three all-female conversations where the most narratives were told. I isolated all the narrative sections in these conversations, using Labov's definition of a minimal narrative as consisting of at least two temporally ordered clauses following the order in which the real world events could be inferred to have taken place (Labov 1972: 360-61). Very few of the narratives in the conversations were as short as just two clauses, however. This gave a total of 124 narratives – 58 from female speakers and 66 from male speakers.The analysis revealed that a consistent characteristic of the narratives told in the male friendship groups was a concern to create a sense of group identity through the telling of a story. This was shown especially by central members of the friendship groups. In their monologues they explicitly marked their stories as familiar to the other speakers by addressing them by name in tags (for example, Nobby says I was pushing my granny and I bit my tongue in half didn’t I Ben), and they encouraged their friends to tell stories of their own about events that were known to them all. A high proportion of the boys' narratives was co-constructed, though often the nature of the co-narration prevented acoherent tale from being told. This was because many of the contributions from individual speakers were insults, contradictions, interruptions and other attempts to seize the floor. The pace of speech was fast, and all the speakers seemed to be enjoying themselves: it seemed to be less important for speakers to secure the floor and recount their story than to participate in group talk and the camaraderie it produces. The point of the contradictions was to show familiarity with the events being recounted rather than to challenge the speaker, as could be seen from the speakers' responses.Table 2 shows that 10 of the story openers used in the male conversations marked the story as a shared event about which they could jointly reminisce. Lone when clauses accounted for 5 of these story openers. In terms of their interactional function, then, these clauses can now be seen as one of a group of forms that propose a topic for a sequence of group talk. This group of story openers is used almost exclusively by the male speakers; there is just one token in the female narratives2. We gain a better understanding of why speakers use lone when clauses in their talk if we see the variation in which these clauses are involved in this way than if we think in terms of the form of adverbial clauses.Table 2 Story openers in the corpus of narrativesAll-female conversations All-male conversations Total Markers of a shared reminiscenceRemember when clause011 What about that time when022 You know when clause011What about X101 Pivotal lone when-clause055I can’t forget that time when011__________________________________________________________Total11011 Temporal subordinate clauses introduced by:once606 when527the other day505one time202one day303last time101yesterday101_____________________________________________________________________ Total23225 Zero opener93443 Miscellaneousclause right17 8left dislocation9312 there was X63 9you know X22 4you see30 3see20 1you should have seen X mate01 1 fuck me10 1oh yes01 1 fuck me01 1 he’s a bastard mate01 1oh it’s horrible10 1it wasn’t half fun10 1________________________________________________________________________ Total all story openers5864123The style of telling in the female conversations was very different. Monologues predominated, and other speakers were rarely (only once, in fact) drawn into the telling with a tag explicitly addressed to them. When narratives were co-constructed they consisted of a series of contributions from individual speakers, with one girl's contribution building on the previous speaker's, and sometimes expanding on it. Contradictions and interruptions were rare, and when another speaker added to the narrative it was usually to contribute points of details that the main speaker had explicitly asked for. In all the female narratives, the speaking rights of the current speaker were respected and a coherent tale was told. Their style of telling was, again, reflected in their choice of story openers: as Table 2 shows, 23 of these were temporal adverbial clauses, forms that were used almost exclusively by the female speakers. The when clauses used as story openers were conventional adverbial clauses dependent on a main clause: like the other temporal adverbial clauses used, their interactional function was to secure the floor by projecting an extended turn, whilst situating the event reported in the main clause within a specific time frame. Extract 8 provides an illustration. Here Julie answers my question about frightening events by beginning a story about a specific time when she and Valerie had been playing near the motorway (the M4) and had been frightened by a man who was following them. She begins her story with a conventional when clause, dependent on the main clause there was a man following us; her weren't h e asks for confirmation, which her friend tries to provide, and together they establish the background information to the story. Once this has been done Julie takes the floor and continues with her story.Extract 8Julie:if ever anybody says to me your mum told me to c.c. bring you home in my car and if I didn’t know this person I would say I would run.. or else Iwould knock at the nearest house。
The Measurement and Antecedents of Affective, Continuance and Normative Commitment to the
2
Natalie J. Allen and John P. Meyer
Not surprisingly, confusion surrounding the conceptual distinctions is reflected in attempts to measure the construct. Indeed, relatively little attention has been given to the development of measures of commitment that conform closely to the researcher's particular conceptualization ofthe commitment construct. Our intention here, therefore, is threefold: (1) to delineate the distinctions between three of the more common conceptualizations of 'attitudinal' commitment,* (2) to develop measures of each, and (3) to demonstra;te that these measures are differentially linked to variables identified in the literature as antecedents of commitment. The third aim serves the dual purpose of providing evidence for the convergent and discriminant validity of the new measures and of providing a preliminary test of hypotheses concerning the development of commitment. The conceptualization and measurement of attitudinal commitment Although several conceptualizations of attitudinal commitment have appeared in the literature, each reflects one of three general themes: affective attachment, perceived costs and obligation (Meyer & Allen, 1987 a). Affective attachment The most prevalent approach to organizational commitment in the literature is one in which commitment is considered an affective or emotional attachment to the organization such that the strongly committed individual identifies with, is involved in, and enjoys membership in, the organization. This view was taken by Kanter (1968) who described 'cohesion commitment' as 'the attachment of an individual's fund of affectivity and emotion to the group' (p. 507) and by Buchanan (1974) who conceptualized commitment as a 'partisan, affective attachment to the goals and values ofthe organization, to one's role in relation to the goals and values, and to the organization for its own sake, apart from its purely instrumental worth' (p. 533). The affective attachment approach is perhaps best represented, however, by the work of Porter and his colleagues (Mowday, Steers & Porter, 1979; Porter, Crampon & Smith, 1976; Porter, Steers, Mowday & Boulian, 1974) who defined organizational commitment as 'the relative strength of an individual's identification with and involvement in a particular organization' (Mowday et al., 1979, p. 226). Porter and his colleagues developed the Organizational Commitment Questionnaire (OCQ) to measure the commitment construct (Mowday et al., 1979). This 15-item scale has been used extensively in research and has acceptable psychometric properties. A parallel measure developed in Great Britain for use with blue-collar workers has also been shown to be 'psychometrically adequate and stable' (Cook & Wall, 1980, p. 39). Although other measures of affective attachment have been developed for use in specific studies, they typically have not been subjected to rigorous psychometric evaluation.

对比关系的英文作文高中
对比关系的英文作文高中英文,Comparative Relationships。
Comparison is a fundamental aspect of human cognition, shaping how we understand the world and make decisions. In this essay, I will explore the nuances of comparative relationships in various contexts, drawing examples from everyday life and literature.Firstly, let's consider the realm of education. When I was in high school, I often compared my academic performance with that of my classmates. For instance, if I scored lower than my friend on a test, I might feel motivated to study harder to improve my grades. This kind of comparison can be both beneficial, as it drives us to excel, and detrimental, as it may lead to unnecessary stress or competitiveness.In literature, authors frequently use comparison to enhance their storytelling. In Shakespeare's play "Romeoand Juliet," the relationship between the two lovers is contrasted with the feud between their families, the Montagues and Capulets. This comparison highlights the theme of love versus hate, adding depth to the narrative and resonating with readers on an emotional level.Moving on to the realm of work and career, comparative relationships play a significant role in our professional lives. For example, when seeking a job, we often compare the salary, benefits, and work culture of different companies before making a decision. Similarly, within a company, employees may compare their performance evaluations or job responsibilities with those of their colleagues, influencing their job satisfaction and career progression.Outside of academics and work, comparativerelationships also shape our personal lives and social interactions. In friendships, we may compare our interests, values, and experiences with those of our friends to strengthen our bonds or navigate conflicts. For instance, if one friend is more outgoing while another is moreintroverted, understanding these differences can lead to more harmonious relationships.In romantic relationships, comparisons can beparticularly complex. People may compare their current partner with past relationships or idealized notions oflove portrayed in media. This can create both positive moments of appreciation and negative moments of doubt or dissatisfaction. Learning to navigate these comparisonswith honesty and empathy is essential for maintaining healthy relationships.Turning to cultural comparisons, globalization has made it easier for us to encounter and appreciate different cultures. When I traveled to China, I was struck by the cultural differences in communication styles, food preferences, and social customs compared to my home country. These comparisons enriched my understanding of diversityand fostered cultural appreciation.In conclusion, comparative relationships permeate every aspect of our lives, influencing how we learn, work,socialize, and perceive the world. By recognizing the power of comparison and approaching it with mindfulness and understanding, we can harness its benefits while mitigating its potential pitfalls.中文,对比关系的探讨。
