Journal of Literature and Art Studies, December 2019, Vol. 9, No. 12, 1299-1304doi: 10.17265/2159-5836/2019.12.010A Study on the Translation of Culture Loaded Words From thePerspective of Skopos TheoryZAN Chen, LYU Liang-qiuNorth China Electric Power University, Beijing, China“A word is the best evidence of the reality of culture, in the sense of a historically transmitted system of conceptionsand attitudes”. University website is an important window of foreign publicity while its English version is animportant window for foreign students in particular. Culture loaded words, with their unique foreign flavor, are theminiature of colorful culture. Therefore, the translation of culture loaded words on university websites plays animportant role in foreign publicity, as it will reflect the image of different university and indirectly affect the foreignpublicity of China. This study selects from the websites of North China Electric Power University (NCEPU) tworepresentative news and analyzes the translation of culture loaded words on university websites from theperspective of Skopos Theory. Finally, the author proposes three methods in translating thesewords—transliteration, literal translation, and free translation, which are suggestive for the translation of cultureloaded words on the university websites.All Rights Reserved.Keywords: culture loaded words, university websites, Skopos TheoryIntroductionDue to more frequent exchanges with foreign countries, the need for foreign publicity of news greatly increases. University websites are critical channels for the campus news to be transmitted. The culture loadedwords in the campus news, though sometimes more readable and interesting, bring trouble to news translators.Against the backdrop of “Chinese Culture Outgoing”, that how to better translate the culture loaded wordsbecomes a challenge.With two news articles at the website of North China Electric Power University (NCEPU) as an example, this paper will study the culture loaded words on university websites from the perspective of Skopos Theory.Literature ReviewSkopos TheorySkopostheorie was first proposed by K. Reiss, a German translation theorist. It was established by the German linguists Hans Vermeer and Katharina Reiß and comprises the idea that the function of the target textshould be primarily taken into account in the process of translation.ZAN Chen, graduate student, School of Foreign Languages, North China Electric Power University, Beijing, China.LYU Liang-qiu, Professor, School of Foreign Languages, North China Electric Power University, Beijing, China.1300A STUDY ON THE TRANSLATION OF CULTURE LOADED WORDSSkopos Theory focuses on translation as an activity with an aim or purpose, and on the intended addressee or audience of the translation. To translate means to produce a target text in a target setting for a target purpose andtarget addressees in target circumstances. In Skopos Theory, the status of the source text is lower than it is inequivalence-based theories of translation. The source is an “offer of information”, which the translator turns intoan “offer of information” for the target audience. In Vermeer’s Skopostheorie, the most important factor is thereceiver as they have their own cultural background, expectations for the source language and communicativeneeds. For each source language, translation is “text produced for some purpose and for the target audience in thetarget language situation”.For Skopostheorie, there are three basic principles: skopos rule, coherence rule and fidelity rule, and loyalty rule. The primary rule is the skopos rule, that is, translation should be able to work in the context and culture ofthe target language according to the way expected by the target language receiver. The purpose of target languagereceiver determines the whole process of translation behavior, that is, the result determines the method. However,translation activities can have multiple purposes, which can be further divided into three categories: (1) the basicpurpose of the translator (such as making a living); (2) the communicative purpose of the translation (such asenlightening the readers); (3) the purpose to be achieved by using a special translation means (such as literaltranslation according to the structure in order to explain the particularity of the language structure in a language).However, in general, “purpose” refers to the communicative purpose of the translation, that is, thecommunicative function of the translation to the target readers in the socio-cultural context of the target language.Therefore, the translator should make clear his specific purpose in the given translation context, and decide whichtranslation method to adopt according to this purpose—literal translation, free translation, or else. Coherence rule All Rights Reserved.refers to that the translation must conform to the standard of intra-textual coherence, that is, the translation hasreadability and acceptability, which enables the receiver to understand and make sense in the target culture andthe communicative context in which the translation is used. Fidelity rule means that there should be inter textualcoherence between the source text and the target text. This is equivalent to the so-called faithfulness to theoriginal in other translation theories, but the degree and form of faithfulness to the original depend on the purposeof the translation and the translator’s understanding of the original. The principle of loyalty was put forward byNord. She found that Skopos Theory has two defects: First, people from different cultural backgrounds havedifferent views on a good translation because of the differences in cultural patterns; in addition, if thecommunicative purpose of the translation required by the target language is exactly opposite to the intention ofthe original author, then we will abide by the principle of purpose and violate the principle of faithfulness.Therefore, Nord proposed the principle of loyalty to solve the relationship between cultural differences and theparticipants in translation. According to Nord, the translator has a moral responsibility to the target audience andmust explain to them what he has done and why. On the other hand, the principle requires the translator to beloyal to the original author. The translator should respect the original author and coordinate the target languageand the author’s intention (Nord, 2001). Therefore, the principle of faithfulness focuses on the relationshipbetween the translator and the original author, the client, the target audience, etc. Nord proposed that translatorsshould follow the guiding principle of “function plus loyalty”, thus perfecting the theory.A STUDY ON THE TRANSLATION OF CULTURE LOADED WORDS 1301Culture Loaded WordsWierzbicka (1997, p. 93) said, “A word is the best evidence of the reality of culture, in the sense of a historically transmitted system of conceptions and attitudes”. Wu Guohua (1989) claims that “a human useslanguage as a communicative tool and the members of society utilize the meaning of words to communicate witheach other according to the social cultural model of the nation”.Leech (1981) divides the meaning of words into seven parts: rational meaning, connotative meaning, social meaning, affective meaning, reflective meaning, collocating meaning, and thematic meaning. According toLeech (1981),Conceptual meaning (sometimes called denotative or cognitive meaning) is widely assumed to be the central factor in linguistic communication…connotative meaning is the communicative value which an expression has by virtue of whatit refers to, over and above its purely concept content. (p. 98)Obviously, culturally-loaded words possess rich connotative meaning besides their conceptual meaning. Theycan be classified into different types according to different criteria. Based on different categories,culturally-loaded words can be divided into animal, figure, plant, body, machine, food, etc. In light of vocabularyequivalence, culturally-loaded words can be classified into the following types: complete equivalent, partiallyequivalent, completely contrary, and lexical gap (Hu, 1988). The test of the animal words’ connotationintroduced in the following section is designed based on Hu’s classification.Study on the Culture Loaded Words From the Perspective of Skopos TheoryTang Ting (2012) proposed three solutions to the translation of culture loaded words in the news and All Rights Reserved.stipulated that the words in different news should be appropriately used and the words must be new. Wang Fei(2012) analyzes three basic translation of culture loaded words—accuracy, completeness, and acceptability.Yang Tingyu (2019) explored the culture loaded words in business English news and discovered that thecombination of domestication and foreignization translation strategies has become a trend. Previous study studiesmostly on economic news or business news. This study, however, focuses on the campus news on the universitywebsites according to the Skopos Theory so that the desired communicative effects can be achieved.Study on the Culture Loaded Words on University Websites From the Perspective of SkoposTheoryWith NCEPU as an example, this article selects from the website of NCEPU two articles published in 2019: One is about the Opening Ceremony; the other is about academic exchange. The two articles represent twotypical types of news: conference and academic exchange, as they can often be seen on the websites of otherdomestic and foreign university websites. For these two representative types of news, it is discovered that manyculture loaded words are covered. The culture loaded words, though help arouse the interest of readers, aredifficult to translate for the translators.TransliterationGenerally, transliteration is the conversion of a text from one script to another. Most systems of transliteration map the letters of the source script to letters pronounced similarly in the goal script, for somespecific pair of source and goal language. For example, some history-related words such as “xiucai”, “yamen”,1302A STUDY ON THE TRANSLATION OF CULTURE LOADED WORDSand “fenghuang”, some words related to athletic and recreational activities such as “pipa”, “erhu”, and “weiqi”,some words related to basic necessities of life such as “won ton”, “Wu Liang Ye”, and “litchi” (lichee), somerelated to natural landscape and local customs such as “feng shui”, “kang”, and “kowtow”, some related to theunit of measurement such as “yuan”, “jiao”, and “fen”. These words are also culture loaded words that can betranslated by transliteration.Literal TranslationLiteral translation is the rendering of text from one language to another one conveying the sense of the original whole. It is the way to maintain the contents and the form of the source language in accordance with theculture. It emphasizes the form similarity, and requires the accordance between the original passages and thetarget one in the choice of word, syntax, and styles.It can be used in the translation of traditional festivals and political words. For instance, “五四运动”, translated as “the May Fourth Movement”, was a great patriotic and revolutionary campaign pioneered byadvanced young intellectuals and participated by the people from all walks of life to resolutely fight imperialismand feudalism on May 4th of 1919. It is a culture loaded word manifested by its historical significance.Many historic movements like “the May Fourth Movement” and “the July 7th Incident” cannot be clearly explained by a few words. By taking the target readers into consideration, literal translation is the best choice.First and foremost, the exact day is very critical and of historic significance for these culture loaded words like“五四运动” and “七七事变”. Literal translation puts this point on the first place and the exact day is clearlyillustrated. But after the free translation, explanation by some phrases needs to be further illustrated. But hereconsider that the English version of news on the university website is targeted mostly at the foreign students who All Rights Reserved.already learn much about Chinese culture. They may read the news for the understanding of what has happened inthe university. The translation is readable for them. Therefore, further explanation about “the May FourthMovement” is not mentioned.SL: 2019级新生在新中国成立70周年、五四运动百年之际踏入大学校园,这本身就非常有纪念价值和使命意味。

Peters (2010) Episodic Future Thinking Reduces Reward Delay Discounting

Peters (2010) Episodic Future Thinking Reduces Reward Delay Discounting

NeuronArticleEpisodic Future Thinking ReducesReward Delay Discounting through an Enhancement of Prefrontal-Mediotemporal InteractionsJan Peters1,*and Christian Bu¨chel11NeuroimageNord,Department of Systems Neuroscience,University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf,Hamburg20246,Germany*Correspondence:j.peters@uke.uni-hamburg.deDOI10.1016/j.neuron.2010.03.026SUMMARYHumans discount the value of future rewards over time.Here we show using functional magnetic reso-nance imaging(fMRI)and neural coupling analyses that episodic future thinking reduces the rate of delay discounting through a modulation of neural decision-making and episodic future thinking networks.In addition to a standard control condition,real subject-specific episodic event cues were presented during a delay discounting task.Spontaneous episodic imagery during cue processing predicted how much subjects changed their preferences toward more future-minded choice behavior.Neural valuation signals in the anterior cingulate cortex and functional coupling of this region with hippo-campus and amygdala predicted the degree to which future thinking modulated individual preference functions.A second experiment replicated the behavioral effects and ruled out alternative explana-tions such as date-based processing and temporal focus.The present data reveal a mechanism through which neural decision-making and prospection networks can interact to generate future-minded choice behavior.INTRODUCTIONThe consequences of choices are often delayed in time,and in many cases it pays off to wait.While agents normally prefer larger over smaller rewards,this situation changes when rewards are associated with costs,such as delays,uncertainties,or effort requirements.Agents integrate such costs into a value function in an individual manner.In the hyperbolic model of delay dis-counting(also referred to as intertemporal choice),for example, a subject-specific discount parameter accurately describes how individuals discount delayed rewards in value(Green and Myer-son,2004;Mazur,1987).Although the degree of delay discount-ing varies considerably between individuals,humans in general have a particularly pronounced ability to delay gratification, and many of our choices only pay off after months or even years. It has been speculated that the capacity for episodic future thought(also referred to as mental time travel or prospective thinking)(Bar,2009;Schacter et al.,2007;Szpunar et al.,2007) may underlie the human ability to make choices with high long-term benefits(Boyer,2008),yielding higher evolutionaryfitness of our species.At the neural level,a number of models have been proposed for intertemporal decision-making in humans.In the so-called b-d model(McClure et al.,2004,2007),a limbic system(b)is thought to place special weight on immediate rewards,whereas a more cognitive,prefrontal-cortex-based system(d)is more involved in patient choices.In an alternative model,the values of both immediate and delayed rewards are thought to be repre-sented in a unitary system encompassing medial prefrontal cortex(mPFC),posterior cingulate cortex(PCC),and ventral striatum(VS)(Kable and Glimcher,2007;Kable and Glimcher, 2010;Peters and Bu¨chel,2009).Finally,in the self-control model, values are assumed to be represented in structures such as the ventromedial prefrontal cortex(vmPFC)but are subject to top-down modulation by prefrontal control regions such as the lateral PFC(Figner et al.,2010;Hare et al.,2009).Both the b-d model and the self-control model predict that reduced impulsivity in in-tertemporal choice,induced for example by episodic future thought,would involve prefrontal cortex regions implicated in cognitive control,such as the lateral PFC or the anterior cingulate cortex(ACC).Lesion studies,on the other hand,also implicated medial temporal lobe regions in decision-making and delay discounting. In rodents,damage to the basolateral amygdala(BLA)increases delay discounting(Winstanley et al.,2004),effort discounting (Floresco and Ghods-Sharifi,2007;Ghods-Sharifiet al.,2009), and probability discounting(Ghods-Sharifiet al.,2009).Interac-tions between the ACC and the BLA in particular have been proposed to regulate behavior in order to allow organisms to overcome a variety of different decision costs,including delays (Floresco and Ghods-Sharifi,2007).In line with thesefindings, impairments in decision-making are also observed in humans with damage to the ACC or amygdala(Bechara et al.,1994, 1999;Manes et al.,2002;Naccache et al.,2005).Along similar lines,hippocampal damage affects decision-making.Disadvantageous choice behavior has recently been documented in patients suffering from amnesia due to hippo-campal lesions(Gupta et al.,2009),and rats with hippocampal damage show increased delay discounting(Cheung and Cardinal,2005;Mariano et al.,2009;Rawlins et al.,1985).These observations are of particular interest given that hippocampal138Neuron66,138–148,April15,2010ª2010Elsevier Inc.damage impairs the ability to imagine novel experiences (Hassa-bis et al.,2007).Based on this and a range of other studies,it has recently been proposed that hippocampus and parahippocam-pal cortex play a crucial role in the formation of vivid event repre-sentations,regardless of whether they lie in the past,present,or future (Schacter and Addis,2009).The hippocampus may thus contribute to decision-making through its role in self-projection into the future (Bar,2009;Schacter et al.,2007),allowing an organism to evaluate future payoffs through mental simulation (Johnson and Redish,2007;Johnson et al.,2007).Future thinking may thus affect intertemporal choice through hippo-campal involvement.Here we used model-based fMRI,analyses of functional coupling,and extensive behavioral procedures to investigate how episodic future thinking affects delay discounting.In Exper-iment 1,subjects performed a classical delay discounting task(Kable and Glimcher,2007;Peters and Bu¨chel,2009)that involved a series of choices between smaller immediate and larger delayed rewards,while brain activity was measured using fMRI.Critically,we introduced a novel episodic condition that involved the presentation of episodic cue words (tags )obtained during an extensive prescan interview,referring to real,subject-specific future events planned for the respective day of reward delivery.This design allowed us to assess individual discount rates separately for the two experimental conditions,allowing us to investigate neural mechanisms mediating changes in delay discounting associated with episodic thinking.In a second behavioral study,we replicated the behavioral effects of Exper-iment 1and addressed a number of alternative explanations for the observed effects of episodic tags on discount rates.RESULTSExperiment 1:Prescan InterviewOn day 1,healthy young volunteers (n =30,mean age =25,15male)completed a computer-based delay discounting proce-dure to estimate their individual discount rate (Peters and Bu ¨-chel,2009).This discount rate was used solely for the purpose of constructing subject-specific trials for the fMRI session (see Experimental Procedures ).Furthermore,participants compiled a list of events that they had planned in the next 7months (e.g.,vacations,weddings,parties,courses,and so forth)andrated them on scales from 1to 6with respect to personal rele-vance,arousal,and valence.For each participant,seven subject-specific events were selected such that the spacing between events increased with increasing delay to the episode,and that events were roughly matched based on personal rele-vance,arousal,and valence.Multiple regression analysis of these ratings across the different delays showed no linear effects (relevance:p =0.867,arousal:p =0.120,valence:p =0.977,see Figure S1available online).For each subject,a separate set of seven delays was computed that was later used as delays in the control condition.Median and range for the delays used in each condition are listed in Table S1(available online).For each event,a label was selected that would serve as a verbal tag for the fMRI session.Experiment 1:fMRI Behavioral ResultsOn day 2,volunteers performed two sessions of a delay dis-counting procedure while fMRI was measured using a 3T Siemens Scanner with a 32-channel head-coil.In each session,subjects made a total of 118choices between 20V available immediately and larger but delayed amounts.Subjects were told that one of their choices would be randomly selected and paid out following scanning,with the respective delay.Critically,in half the trials,an additional subject-specific episodic tag (see above,e.g.,‘‘vacation paris’’or ‘‘birthday john’’)was displayed based on the prescan interview (see Figure 1)indicating which event they had planned on the particular day (episodic condi-tion),whereas in the remaining trials,no episodic tag was pre-sented (control condition).Amount and waiting time were thus displayed in both conditions,but only the episodic condition involved the presentation of an additional subject-specific event tag.Importantly,nonoverlapping sets of delays were used in the two conditions.Following scanning,subjects rated for each episodic tag how often it evoked episodic associations during scanning (frequency of associations:1,never;to 6,always)and how vivid these associations were (vividness of associa-tions:1,not vivid at all;to 6,highly vivid;see Figure S1).Addition-ally,written reports were obtained (see Supplemental Informa-tion ).Multiple regression revealed no significant linear effects of delay on postscan ratings (frequency:p =0.224,vividness:p =0.770).We averaged the postscan ratings acrosseventsFigure 1.Behavioral TaskDuring fMRI,subjects made repeated choices between a fixed immediate reward of 20V and larger but delayed amounts.In the control condi-tion,amounts were paired with a waiting time only,whereas in the episodic condition,amounts were paired with a waiting time and a subject-specific verbal episodic tag indicating to the subjects which event they had planned at the respective day of reward delivery.Events were real and collected in a separate testing session prior to the day of scanning.NeuronEpisodic Modulation of Delay DiscountingNeuron 66,138–148,April 15,2010ª2010Elsevier Inc.139and the frequency/vividness dimensions,yielding an‘‘imagery score’’for each subject.Individual participants’choice data from the fMRI session were then analyzed byfitting hyperbolic discount functions to subject-specific indifference points to obtain discount rates (k-parameters),separately for the episodic and control condi-tions(see Experimental Procedures).Subjective preferences were well-characterized by hyperbolic functions(median R2 episodic condition=0.81,control condition=0.85).Discount functions of four exemplary subjects are shown in Figure2A. For both conditions,considerable variability in the discount rate was observed(median[range]of discount rates:control condition=0.014[0.003–0.19],episodic condition=0.013 [0.002–0.18]).To account for the skewed distribution of discount rates,all further analyses were conducted on the log-trans-formed k-parameters.Across subjects,log-transformed discount rates were significantly lower in the episodic condition compared with the control condition(t(29)=2.27,p=0.016),indi-cating that participants’choice behavior was less impulsive in the episodic condition.The difference in log-discount rates between conditions is henceforth referred to as the episodic tag effect.Fitting hyperbolic functions to the median indifference points across subjects also showed reduced discounting in the episodic condition(discount rate control condition=0.0099, episodic condition=0.0077).The size of the tag effect was not related to the discount rate in the control condition(p=0.56). We next hypothesized that the tag effect would be positively correlated with postscan ratings of episodic thought(imagery scores,see above).Robust regression revealed an increase in the size of the tag effect with increasing imagery scores (t=2.08,p=0.023,see Figure2B),suggesting that the effect of the tags on preferences was stronger the more vividly subjects imagined the episodes.Examples of written postscan reports are provided in the Supplemental Results for participants from the entire range of imagination ratings.We also correlated the tag effect with standard neuropsychological measures,the Sensation Seeking Scale(SSS)V(Beauducel et al.,2003;Zuck-erman,1996)and the Behavioral Inhibition Scale/Behavioral Approach Scale(BIS/BAS)(Carver and White,1994).The tag effect was positively correlated with the experience-seeking subscale of the SSS(p=0.026)and inversely correlated with the reward-responsiveness subscale of the BIS/BAS scales (p<0.005).Repeated-measures ANOVA of reaction times(RTs)as a func-tion of option value(lower,similar,or higher relative to the refer-ence option;see Experimental Procedures and Figure2C)did not show a main effect of condition(p=0.712)or a condition 3value interaction(p=0.220),but revealed a main effect of value(F(1.8,53.9)=16.740,p<0.001).Post hoc comparisons revealed faster RTs for higher-valued options relative to similarly (p=0.002)or lower valued options(p<0.001)but no difference between lower and similarly valued options(p=0.081).FMRI DataFMRI data were modeled using the general linear model(GLM) as implemented in SPM5.Subjective value of each decision option was calculated by multiplying the objective amount of each delayed reward with the discount fraction estimated behaviorally based on the choices during scanning,and included as a parametric regressor in the GLM.Note that discount rates were estimated separately for the control and episodic conditions(see above and Figure2),and we thus used condition-specific k-parameters for calculation of the subjective value regressor.Additional parametric regressors for inverse delay-to-reward and absolute reward magnitude, orthogonalized with respect to subjective value,were included in theGLM.Figure2.Behavioral Data from Experiment1Shown are experimentally derived discount func-tions from the fMRI session for four

amount.Note that althoughseven delays were used for each condition,somedata points are missing,e.g.,onlyfive delay indif-ference points for the episodic condition areplotted for sub20.This indicates that,for the twolongest delays,this subject never chose the de-layed reward.***p<0.005.Error bars=SEM.Neuron Episodic Modulation of Delay Discounting140Neuron66,138–148,April15,2010ª2010Elsevier Inc.Episodic Tags Activate the Future Thinking NetworkWe first analyzed differences in the condition regressors without parametric pared to those of the control condi-tion,BOLD responses to the presentation of the delayed reward in the episodic condition yielded highly significant activations (corrected for whole-brain volume)in an extensive network of brain regions previously implicated in episodic future thinking (Addis et al.,2007;Schacter et al.,2007;Szpunar et al.,2007)(see Figure 3and Table S2),including retrosplenial cortex (RSC)/PCC (peak MNI coordinates:À6,À54,14,peak z value =6.26),left lateral parietal cortex (LPC,À44,À66,32,z value =5.35),and vmPFC (À8,34,À12,z value =5.50).Distributed Neural Coding of Subjective ValueWe then replicated previous findings (Kable and Glimcher,2007;Kable and Glimcher,2010;Peters and Bu¨chel,2009)using a conjunction analysis (Nichols et al.,2005)searching for regions showing a positive correlation between the height of the BOLD response and subjective value in the control and episodic condi-tions in a parametric analysis (Figure 4A and Table S3).Note that this is a conservative analysis that requires that a given voxel exceed the statistical threshold in both contrasts separately.This analysis revealed clusters in the lateral orbitofrontal cortex (OFC,À36,50,À10,z value =4.50)and central OFC (À18,12,À14,z value =4.05),bilateral VS (right:10,8,0,z value =4.22;left:À10,8,À6,z value =3.51),mPFC (6,26,16,z value =3.72),and PCC (À2,À28,24,z value =4.09),representing subjective (discounted)value in both conditions.We next analyzed the neural tag effect,i.e.,regions in which the subjective value correlation was greater for the episodic condi-tion as compared with the control condition (Figure 4B and Table S4).This analysis revealed clusters in the left LPC (À66,À42,32,z value =4.96,),ACC (À2,16,36,z value =4.76),left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC,À38,36,36,z value =4.81),and right amygdala (24,2,À24,z value =3.75).Finally,we performed a triple-conjunction analysis,testing for regions that were correlated with subjective value in both conditions,but in which the value correlation increased in the episodic condition.Only left LPC showed this pattern (À66,À42,30,z value =3.55,see Figure 4C and Table S5),the same region that we previously identified as delay-specific in valuation (Petersand Bu¨chel,2009).There were no regions in which the subjective value correlation was greater in the control condition when compared with the episodic condition at p <0.001uncorrected.ACC Valuation Signals and Functional Connectivity Predict Interindividual Differences in Discount Function ShiftsWe next correlated differences in the neural tag effect with inter-individual differences in the size of the behavioral tag effect.To this end,we performed a simple regression analysis in SPM5on the single-subject contrast images of the neural tag effect (i.e.,subjective value correlation episodic >control)using the behavioral tag effect [log(k control )–log(k episodic )]as an explana-tory variable.This analysis revealed clusters in the bilateral ACC (right:18,34,18,z value =3.95,p =0.021corrected,left:À20,34,20,z value =3.52,Figure 5,see Table S6for a complete list).Coronal sections (Figure 5C)clearly show that both ACC clusters are located in gray matter of the cingulate sulcus.Because ACC-limbic interactions have previously been impli-cated in the control of choice behavior (Floresco and Ghods-Sharifi,2007;Roiser et al.,2009),we next analyzed functional coupling with the right ACC from the above regression contrast (coordinates 18,34,18,see Figure 6A)using a psychophysiolog-ical interaction analysis (PPI)(Friston et al.,1997).Note that this analysis was conducted on a separate first-level GLM in which control and episodic trials were modeled as 10s miniblocks (see Experimental Procedures for details).We first identified regions in which coupling with the ACC changed in the episodic condition compared with the control condition (see Table S7)and then performed a simple regression analysis on these coupling parameters using the behavioral tag effect as an explanatory variable.The tag effect was associated with increased coupling between ACC and hippocampus (À32,À18,À16,z value =3.18,p =0.031corrected,Figure 6B)and ACC and left amygdala (À26,À4,À26,z value =2.95,p =0.051corrected,Figure 6B,see Table S8for a complete list of activa-tions).The same regression analysis in a second PPI with the seed voxel placed in the contralateral ACC region from the same regression contrast (À20,34,22,see above)yielded qual-itatively similar,though subthreshold,results in these same structures (hippocampus:À28,À32,À6,z value =1.96,amyg-dala:À28,À6,À16,z value =1.97).Experiment 2We conducted an additional behavioral experiment to address a number of alternative explanations for the observed effects of tags on choice behavior.First,it could be argued thatepisodicFigure 3.Categorical Effect of Episodic Tags on Brain ActivityGreater activity in lateral parietal cortex (left)and posterior cingulate/retrosplenial and ventro-medial prefrontal cortex (right)was observed in the episodic condition compared with the control condition.p <0.05,FWE-corrected for whole-brain volume.NeuronEpisodic Modulation of Delay DiscountingNeuron 66,138–148,April 15,2010ª2010Elsevier Inc.141tags increase subjective certainty that a reward would be forth-coming.In Experiment 2,we therefore collected postscan ratings of reward confidence.Second,it could be argued that events,always being associated with a particular date,may have shifted temporal focus from delay-based to more date-based processing.This would represent a potential confound,because date-associated rewards are discounted less than delay-associated rewards (Read et al.,2005).We therefore now collected postscan ratings of temporal focus (date-based versus delay-based).Finally,Experiment 1left open the question of whether the tag effect depends on the temporal specificity of the episodic cues.We therefore introduced an additional exper-imental condition that involved the presentation of subject-specific temporally unspecific future event cues.These tags (henceforth referred to as unspecific tags)were obtained by asking subjects to imagine events that could realistically happen to them in the next couple of months,but that were not directly tied to a particular point in time (see Experimental Procedures ).Episodic Imagery,Not Temporal Specificity,Reward Confidence,or Temporal Focus,Predicts the Size of the Tag EffectIn total,data from 16participants (9female)are included.Anal-ysis of pretest ratings confirmed that temporally unspecific and specific tags were matched in terms of personal relevance,arousal,valence,and preexisting associations (all p >0.15).Choice preferences were again well described by hyperbolic functions (median R 2control =0.84,unspecific =0.81,specific =0.80).We replicated the parametric tag effect (i.e.,increasing effect of tags on discount rates with increasing posttest imagery scores)in this independent sample for both temporally specific (p =0.047,Figure 7A)and temporally unspecific (p =0.022,Figure 7A)tags,showing that the effect depends on future thinking,rather than being specifically tied to the temporal spec-ificity of the event cues.Following testing,subjects rated how certain they were that a particular reward would actually be forth-coming.Overall,confidence in the payment procedure washighFigure 4.Neural Representation of Subjective Value (Parametric Analysis)(A)Regions in which the correlation with subjective value (parametric analysis)was significant in both the control and the episodic conditions (conjunction analysis)included central and lateral orbitofrontal cortex (OFC),bilateral ventral striatum (VS),medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC),and posterior cingulate cortex(PCC),replicating previous studies (Kable and Glimcher,2007;Peters and Bu¨chel,2009).(B)Regions in which the subjective value correlation was greater for the episodic compared with the control condition included lateral parietal cortex (LPC),ante-rior cingulate cortex (ACC),dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC),and the right amygdala (Amy).(C)A conjunction analysis revealed that only LPC activity was positively correlated with subjective value in both conditions,but showed a greater regression slope in the episodic condition.No regions showed a better correlation with subjective value in the control condition.Error bars =SEM.All peaks are significant at p <0.001,uncorrected;(A)and (B)are thresholded at p <0.001uncorrected and (C)is thresholded at p

these subjective certainty estimates (one-way ANOVA:F (2,45)=0.113,p =0.894).Subjects also rated their temporal focus as either delay-based or date-based (see Experimental Procedures ),i.e.,whether they based their decisions on the delay-to-reward that was actually displayed,or whether they attempted to convert delays into the corresponding dates and then made their choices based on these dates.There was no overall significant effect of condition on temporal focus (one-way ANOVA:F (2,45)=1.485,p =0.237,Figure 7C),but a direct comparison between the control and the temporally specific condition showed a significant difference (t (15)=3.18,p =0.006).We there-fore correlated the differences in temporal focus ratings between conditions (control:unspecific and control:specific)with the respective tag effects (Figure 7D).There were no correlations (unspecific:p =0.71,specific:p =0.94),suggesting that the observed differences in discounting cannot be attributed to differences in temporal focus.High-Imagery,but Not Low-Imagery,Subjects Adjust Their Discount Function in an Episodic ContextFor a final analysis,we pooled the samples of Experiments 1and 2(n =46subjects in total),using only the temporally specific tag data from Experiment 2.We performed a median split into low-and high-imagery participants according to posttest imagery scores (low-imagery subjects:n =23[15/8Exp1/Exp2],imagery range =1.5–3.4,high-imagery subjects:n =23[15/8Exp1/Exp2],imagery range =3.5–5).The tag effect was significantly greater than 0in the high-imagery group (t (22)=2.6,p =0.0085,see Figure 7D),where subjects reduced their discount rate by onaverage 16%in the presence of episodic tags.In the low-imagery group,on the other hand,the tag effect was not different from zero (t (22)=0.573,p =0.286),yielding a significant group difference (t (44)=2.40,p =0.011).DISCUSSIONWe investigated the interactions between episodic future thought and intertemporal decision-making using behavioral testing and fMRI.Experiment 1shows that reward delay dis-counting is modulated by episodic future event cues,and the extent of this modulation is predicted by the degree of sponta-neous episodic imagery during decision-making,an effect that we replicated in Experiment 2(episodic tag effect).The neuroi-maging data (Experiment 1)highlight two mechanisms that support this effect:(1)valuation signals in the lateral ACC and (2)neural coupling between ACC and hippocampus/amygdala,both predicting the size of the tag effect.The size of the tag effect was directly related to posttest imagery scores,strongly suggesting that future thinking signifi-cantly contributed to this effect.Pooling subjects across both experiments revealed that high-imagery subjects reduced their discount rate by on average 16%in the episodic condition,whereas low-imagery subjects did not.Experiment 2addressed a number of alternative accounts for this effect.First,reward confidence was comparable for all conditions,arguing against the possibility that the tags may have somehow altered subjec-tive certainty that a reward would be forthcoming.Second,differences in temporal focus between conditions(date-basedFigure 5.Correlation between the Neural and Behavioral Tag Effect(A)Glass brain and (B and C)anatomical projection of the correlation between the neural tag effect

behavioural analysis

behavioural analysis

behavioural analysis[Behavioural Analysis]Introduction:Behavioural analysis is a psychological approach that involves studying, understanding, and interpreting human behaviour. This field of study aims to observe and analyze human actions, reactions, and patterns to gain insights into their thoughts, emotions, and personality traits. By examining behaviour, psychologists, researchers, and practitioners can better understand the motives, intentions, and underlying processes of individuals. In this article, we will explore different aspects of behavioural analysis, including its methods, applications, and significance.Methodology:Behavioural analysis employs several methods to study human behaviour. These methods include direct observation, interviews, surveys, and experiments. Direct observation involves carefully observing and noting down behavioural patterns in specific settings. Researchers may conduct structured or unstructured interviews to gather information about individuals' experiences, perspectives, and attitudes. Surveys are another common method that employsquestionnaires to collect data on a larger scale. Lastly, experiments are conducted to test hypotheses and explore cause-and-effect relationships between specific variables and behaviour.Applications:Behavioural analysis finds applications in various fields, including psychology, sociology, education, marketing, and criminal justice. Psychologists use this approach to diagnose and treat mental health conditions. Understanding patterns and triggers behind certain behaviours allows therapists to develop more effective treatment plans. Moreover, behavioural analysis is relevant in education as it helps identify learning difficulties, behavioural disorders, and social challenges among students. Teachers can then adapt their teaching methodologies to accommodate these individual needs.In the marketing industry, behavioural analysis plays a pivotal role in understanding consumer purchasing behaviour. By studying consumer habits, preferences, anddecision-making processes, companies can design targeted marketing campaigns and develop products that align with customers' needs and wants. In the criminal justice system,behavioural analysis contributes significantly to crime investigation and profiling. Detectives and criminal profilers analyze crime scenes, offender behaviour, and eyewitness accounts to predict the characteristics and motivations of criminals. This aids in the apprehension and prevention of future crimes.Significance:Behavioural analysis is significant as it provides valuable insights into human behaviour, enabling professionals to make informed decisions and implement effective strategies. By understanding the factors that influence behaviour, individuals can gain self-awareness and make positive changes in their lives. The knowledge acquired through behavioural analysis also helps society in general by fostering better understanding and empathy towards others.Behavioural analysis allows researchers to explore the complex interaction between biology, cognition, and the environment. It aids in uncovering the underlying reasons for certain behaviours, including biases, attitudes, and beliefs. This understanding is crucial in addressing societal issues such as discrimination, prejudice, and inequality.Moreover, behavioural analysis helps in predicting andpreventing harmful or deviant behaviours. By identifying risk factors and early warning signs, professionals can intervene and provide necessary support to individuals at risk. For example, in the field of mental health, behavioural analysis assists in identifying warning signs of potential self-harm or suicide. This enables mental health professionals to take appropriate measures to prevent tragedy and provide the necessary care and intervention.Conclusion:Behavioural analysis is a comprehensive approach that delves into the intricacies of human behaviour. Through various methods, this field of study unlocks valuable insights into the motives, intentions, and underlying processes that drive our actions and reactions. The applications of behavioural analysis span across multiple disciplines, all helping us gain a better understanding of ourselves and others. By recognizing the significance of behavioural analysis, we can cultivate a more empathetic and inclusive society while effectively addressing individual and societal challenges.。

Neuron overload and the juggling physician

Neuron overload and the juggling physician

Neuron overload and the juggling physicianDanielle Ofri aPatients often complain that their doctors don't listen. Although there are probably a few doctors who truly are tone deaf, most are reasonably empathic human beings, and I wonder why even these doctors seem prey to this criticism. I often wonder whether it is sheer neuron overload on the doctor side that leads to this problem. Sometimes it feels as though my brain is juggling so many competing details, that one stray request from a patient—even one that is quite relevant—might send the delicately balanced three-ring circus tumbling down.One day, I tried to work out how many details a doctor needs to keep spinning in her head in order to do a satisfactory job, by calculating how many thoughts I have to juggle in a typical office visit. Mrs Osorio is a 56-year-old woman in my practice. She is somewhat overweight. She has reasonably well-controlled diabetes and hypertension. Her cholesterol is on the high side but she doesn't take any medications for this. She doesn't exercise as much as she should, and her last DEXA scan showed some thinning of her bones. She describes her life as stressful, although she's been good about keeping her appointments and getting her blood tests. She's generally healthy, someone who'd probably be described as an average patient in a medical practice, not excessively complicated.Here are the thoughts that run through my head as I proceed through our 20-min consultation.Good thing she did her blood tests. Glucose is a little better. Cholesterol isn't great. May need to think about starting a statin. Are her liver enzymes normal?Her weight is a little up. I need to give her my talk about five fruits and vegetables and 30 min of walking each day.Diabetes: how do her morning sugars compare to her evening sugars? Has she spoken with the nutritionist lately? Has she been to the eye doctor? The podiatrist?Her blood pressure is good but not great. Should I add another BP med? Will more pills be confusing? Does the benefit of possible better blood pressure control outweigh the risk of her possibly not taking all of her meds?Her bones are a little thin on the DEXA. Should I start a bisphosphonate that might prevent osteoporosis? But now I'm piling yet another pill onto her, and one that requires detailed instructions. Maybe leave this until next time?How are things at home? Is she experiencing just the usual stress of life, or might there be depression or anxiety disorder lurking? Is there time for the depression questionnaire?Health maintenance: when was her last mammogram? PAP smear? Has she had a colonoscopy since she turned 50? Has she had a tetanus booster in the past 10 years? Does she qualify for a pneumonia vaccine?Ms Osorio interrupts my train of thought to tell me that her back has been aching for the past few months. From her perspective, this is probably the most important item in our visit, but the fact is that she's caught one of my neurons in mid-fire (the one that's thinking about her blood sugar, which is segueing into the neuron that's preparing the diet-and-exercise discussion, which is intersecting with the one that's debating about initiating a statin). My instinct is to put one hand up and keep all interruptions at bay. It's not that I don't want to hear what she has to say, but the sensation that I'm juggling so many thoughts, and need to resolve them all before the clock runs down, that keeps me in moderate state of panic. What if I drop one—what if one of my thoughts evaporates while I address another concern? I'm trying to type as fast as I can, for the very sake of not letting any thoughts escape, but every time I turn to the computer to write, I'm not making eye contact with Mrs Osorio. I don't want my patient to think that the computer is more important than she is, but I have to keep looking toward the screen to get her lab results, check her mammogram report, document the progress of her illnesses, order the tests, refill her prescriptions.Then she pulls a form out her of bag: her insurance company needs this form for some reason or another. An innocent—and completely justified—request, but I feel that this could be the straw that breaks the camel's back, that the precarious balance of all that I'm keeping in the air will be simply unhinged. I nod, but indicate that we need to do her physical examination first. I barrel through the basics, then quickly check for any red-flag signs that might suggest that her back pain is anything more than routine muscle strain. I return to the computer to input all the information, mentally running through my checklist, anxious that nothing important slips from my brain's holding bay.I want to do everything properly and cover all our bases, but the more effort I place into accurate and thorough documentation, the less time I have to actually interact with my patient. A glance at the clock tells me that we've gone well beyond our allotted time. I stand up and hand Mrs Os orio her prescriptions. “What about my insurance form,” she asks. “It needs to be in by Friday, otherwise I might lose my coverage.” I clap my hand against my forehead; I've completely forgotten about the form she'd asked about just a few minutes ago.Studies have debunked the myth of multitasking in human beings. The concept of multitasking was developed in the computer field to explain the idea of a microprocessor doing two jobs at one time. It turns out that microprocessors are in fact linear, and actually perform only one task at a time. Our computers give the illusion of simultaneous action based on the microprocessor “scheduling” competing activities in a complicated integratedalgorithm. Like microprocessors, we humans can't actually concentrate on two thoughts at the same exact time. We merely zip back and forth between them, generally losing accuracy in the process. At best, we can juggle only a handful of thoughts in this manner. The more thoughts we juggle, the less we are able to attune fully to any given thought. To me, this is a recipe for disaster. Today I only forgot an insurance company form. But what if I'd forgotten to order her mammogram, or what if I'd refilled only five of her six medicines? What if I'd forgotten to fully explain the side-effects of one of her medications? The list goes on, as does the anxiety.At the end of the day, my mind spins as I try to remember if I've forgotten anything. Mrs Osorio had seven medical issues to consider, each of which required at least five separate thoughts: that's 35 thoughts. I saw ten patients that afternoon: that's 350. I'd supervised five residents that morning, each of whom saw four patients, each of whom generated at least ten thoughts. That's another 200 thoughts. It's not to say that we can't handle 550 thoughts in a working day, but each of these thoughts potentially carries great risk if improperly evaluated. If I do a good job juggling 98% of the time, that still leaves ten thoughts that might get lost in the process. Any one of those lost thoughts could translate into a disastrous outcome, not to mention a possible lawsuit. Most doctors are reasonably competent, caring individuals, but the overwhelming swirl of thoughts that we must keep track of leaves many of us in a perpetual panic that something serious might slip. This is what keeps us awake at night.There are many proposed solutions—computer-generated reminders, case managers, ancillary services. To me, the simplest one would be time. If I had an hour for each patient, I'd be a spectacular doctor. If I could let my thoughts roll linearly and singularly, rather than simultaneously and haphazardly, I wouldn't fear losing anything. I suspect that it would actually be more efficient, as my patients probably wouldn't have to return as frequently. But realistically, no one is going to hand me a golden hour for each of my patients. My choices seem to boil down to entertaining fewer thoughts, accepting decreased accuracy for each thought, giving up on thorough documentation, or having a constant headache from neuronal overload.These are the choices that practising physicians face every day, with every patient. Mostly we rely on our clinical judgment to prioritise, accepting the trade-off that is inevitable with any compromise. We attend to the medical issues that carry the greatest weight and then have to let some of the lesser ones slide, with the hope that none of these seemingly lesser ones masks something grave.Some computers have indeed achieved the goal of true multitasking, by virtue of having more than one microprocessor. In practice, that is like possessing an additional brain that can function independently and thus truly simultaneously. Unless the transplant field advances drastically, there is little hope for that particular deus ex machina. In some cases,having a dedicated and competent clinical partner such as a one-on-one nurse can come close to simulating a second brain, but most medical budgets don't allow for such staffing indulgence.As it stands, it seems that we will simply have to continue this impossible mental high-wire act, juggling dozens of clinical issues in our brains, panicking about dropping a critical one. The resultant neuronal overload will continue to present a distracted air to our patients that may be interpreted as us not listening, or perhaps not caring.When my computer becomes overloaded, it simply crashes. Usually, I reboot in a fury, angry about all my lost work. Now, however, I view my computer with a tinge of envy. It has the luxury of being able to crash, and of a reassuring, omniscient hand to press the reboot button. Physicians are permitted no such extravagance. I pull out the bottle of paracetamol tablets from my desk drawer and set about disabling the childproof cap. It's about the only thing I truly have control over.。

2006AbstractMurine lymph nodes are intensively studied but often assigned incorrectly in scientific papers.In BALB/cAnNCrl mice,we characterized a total of 22different lymph nodes.Peripheral nodes were situated in the head and neck region (mandibular,accessory mandibular,superficial parotid,cranial deep cervical nodes),and at the forelimb (proper axillary,accessory axillary nodes)and hindlimb (subiliac,sciatic,popliteal nodes).Intrathoracic lymph nodes included the cranial mediastinal,tracheobronchal and caudal mediastinal nodes.Abdominal lymph nodes were associated with the gastrointestinal tract (gastric,pancreaticoduodenal,jejunal,colic,caudal mesenteric nodes)or were located along the major intra-abdominal blood vessels (renal,lumbar aortic,lateral iliac,medial iliac and external iliac nodes).Comparative and nomenclative aspects of murine lymph nodes are discussed.The position of the lymph nodes of BALB/cAnNCrl mice is summarized and illustrated in an anatomical chart containing proposals for both an official nomenclature according to the Nomina Anatomica Veterinaria and English terms.©2006Elsevier B.V .All rights reserved.Keywords:Mouse;Lymph node;Nomenclature1.IntroductionRodents,and mice in particular,have long been used as laboratory animals in various scientific experiments.The possibility to produce different murine strains and a variety of knock-out mice,the high reproductive rate of these animals,and the ease of their handling have made them the preferential laboratory animal.In immunolog-ical sciences,murine lymph nodes (lnn.)are often used to isolate lymphocytes in order to study fundamentalaspects of immunology and immunopathology.The methodology to recognize and dissect these lymph nodes requires at least a basic anatomical knowledge.In numerous studies,however,inaccurate,misleading or even enigmatic terms such as genital nodes (Cain and Rank,1995)or tonsillar nodes (Deaglio et al.,1996)have sometimes been assigned to murine lymph nodes.The ambiguity of murine lymph node (ln.)nomenclature is illustrated by the lymph node at the ear base of mice which has been variably designated by various terms such as parotid ln.(Cuq,1966;Grassé,1972;Popesko et al.,1992),lateral mandibular ln.(Cuq,1966),and facial ln.(Wolvers et al.,1999),while numerous recent studies refer to an allegedly auricular ln.(Anjuère et al.,1999;Dearman et al.,1996;Sailstad et al.,1995)or pre-Journal of Immunological Methods 312(2006)12–19/locate/jim⁎Corresponding author.Tel.:+3292747716;fax:+3292647790.E-mail

region.Given this confusion,it becomes very difficult to reproduce the experimental reports or compare different scientific results.Nevertheless,the localization of the different lymph nodes with their respective names in mice has been thoroughly described in a number of anatomical publications (Barone et al.,1950;Cuq,1966;Kawashima et al.,1964),but these papers are seldom referred to.A sample bibliographic (Medline)search from 1989to 1999demonstrated that of 293randomly chosen papers in which the words “mouse lymph node(s)”are used,89citations (i.e.30%)used only vague terms such as “lymph node ”,“peripheral lymph node ”,“draining lymph node ”,“local lymph node ”,or “regional lymph node ”instead of the precise anatomical names.In the remaining 204publications,at least 42different specific names were given to the lymph nodes that were studied.Only 1article,however,contained some figures illustrating the anatomical position and identification of the lymph nodes in question (Wolvers et al.,1999).In contrast,in the remaining 203studies the exact scientific identification of the node was lacking:59of these investigations referred to previous publica-tions in which the nomenclature used was not based on asufficiently scientific anatomical support,while in the remaining 144articles no anatomical reference was given at all.In an attempt to rectify this situation,we first characterized the lymph nodes in BALB/cAnNCrl mice and then summarized our findings in an anatomical chart.2.Materials and methods 2.1.AnimalsSeventy female BALB/cAnNCrl mice (Iffa Credo N.V .,Brussels,Belgium)aged 8to 32weeks were housed in groups of 3to 6animals in conventional type II cages containing nesting material as environmental enrich-ment (Brain et al.,1994)along with water and food supply ad libitum.At the end of the experiments,all animals were euthanized by intraperitoneal (IP)injec-tion of 30μl T61(Hoechst Roussel Vet,Brussels,Belgium).All experimental studies described in this paper were approved by the Institutional Animal Welfare Committee of Innogenetics (September 15,1999).Table 1Protocols used for demonstrating murine lymph nodes Protocol Route of

312(2006)12–192.2.Stimulation of lymph nodesAs murine lymph nodes are hardly distinguishable from the surrounding fat and connective tissue(Cuq, 1966),they were stimulated and colored in vivo by an injection of Indian ink in combination with an adjuvant prior to euthanasia and subsequent dissection of the animals.Intravenous injections were performed in three mice to obtain a general overview(protocol I),whereas different additional stimulation protocols were used to demonstrate the presence of particular nodes in various body regions(protocols II–XII).In some protocols,a previous sedation of the mice by intramuscular injection of1μl/g body weight of a solution of200μl ketamine (Ketalar,Parke Davis,Dublin,Ireland)and30μl xylazine(Rompun2%,Bayer,Brussels,Belgium)was required.In a few cases,anaesthesia was induced by injecting the mice intraperitoneally with220μl of a solution containing200μl ketamine,100μl xylazine and 700μl physiological salt solution.The different protocol details are listed in Table1.The specific protocols that have been used to identify the particular nodes are listed in Table2.2.3.Histological examinationThe lymphoid architecture of the in vivo colored structures was verified by histological examination. Dissected lymph nodes were fixed in3.5%phosphate-buffered formaldehyde immediately after necropsy. Paraffin sections were made and stained with eosin–haematoxylin.3.ResultsBased on their topography,the murine lymph nodes were divided into peripheral(head and neck region, forelimb,hindlimb),intrathoracic,and intra-abdominal lymph nodes.A precise nomenclature based on the Nomina Anatomica Veterinaria(2005),equivalent English terms,and the topography of the lymph nodes are described in Table2.The anatomical position ofthe Fig.1.Peripheral lymph nodes in the mouse.(1a)Ventro-lateral view of the head and throat region with sublingual(a),mandibular(b)and parotid

illustrated in 14photographs (Figs.1–3)and 2drawings (Fig.4).Nine peripheral lymph nodes are constant and bilaterally present,namely the mandibular,accessory mandibular,superficial parotid,and cranial deep cervical ln.in the head and neck regions,the axillary and accessory axillary ln.in the forelimb,and the subiliac,sciatic and popliteal ln.in the hindlimb region.Intrathoracic nodes are few in number and consist of the cranial mediastinal lnn.,tracheobronchal ln.and the caudal mediastinal ln.Intra-abdominal lymph nodes are either associated with the gastroin-testinal tract or lie along the major abdominal arteries.The former group consists of the gastric and pancrea-ticoduodenal ln.,the jejunal lnn.and colic ln.which together represent the cranial mesenteric lnn.,and the caudal mesenteric ln.The other intra-abdominal lymph nodes include the bilateral renal,medial iliac and external iliac ln.,as well as the inconstant lumbar aortic and lateral iliac ln.The latter lymph node was observed in 2out of 3mice that were stimulated by intravenous injection.Other lymph nodes such as the facial (Wolvers et al.,1999),auricular or pre-auricular (Anjuère et al.,1999;Dearman et al.,1996;Hendrickx et al.,1992;Sailstad et al.,1995),superficial cervical (Barone et al.,1950;Cuq,1966),caudal deep cervical (Barone et al.,1950),pulmonary (Teitelbaum et al.,1999),hepatic and lienal (Barone et al.,1950),(ileo)cecal (Barone et al.,1950;Cuq,1966),sacral (Popesko et al.,1992),and femoral (Björkdahl et al.,1999;Mishell et al.,1980)lymph nodes were not observed in any of the BALB/cAnNCrl mice that were examined in the present study.Furthermore,there was no evidence of the presence of a submental lymph node (Cook,1983;Jacoby and Fox,1984),but a number of subcutaneous submental lymph nodules were demonstrated just caudal to the inter-mandibular synchondrosis by histological examination.4.DiscussionWe sought to definitely localize lymph nodes in mice and to provide an up-to-date anatomical determination chart to identify the different nodes.Most oftheseFig.2.Intrathoracic and intra-abdominal lymph nodes in the mouse.(2a)Ventral view of the thoracic cavity with

the description in Table 2.16W.Van den Broeck et al./Journal of Immunological Methods 312(2006)12–19lymph nodes have already been described in anatomical papers (Barone et al.,1950;Cuq,1966;Kawashima et al.,1964),but bibliometric analysis indicates that contemporary investigators are often not familiar with these publications.As a consequence,the nomenclature of murine lymph nodes used in recent literature lacks uniformity and is sometimes inadequate or even incorrect.By using different conventional in vivo staining techniques,22lymph nodes could be demonstrated in BALB/cAnNCrl mice.They were named by analogy to the terms listed in Nomina Anatomica Veterinaria (2005).This terminology is based on precise nomen-clatory principles leading to short and simple terms with instructive and descriptive value.Several lymph nodes that were observed in BALB/cAnNCrl mice could be identified because of their comparative and topographic similarities with analogous lymph nodes in domestic carnivores,pigs,and herbivores,and they were named accordingly.However mice lack several lymph nodes that are present in other mammals,such as the deep parotid or proper lumbar lymph nodes.Despite the absence of these complementary structures in mice,the terms superficial parotid and lumbar aortic lymph nodes were retained because the pertaining adjectives have useful descriptive value.This was also the case for the term cranial deep cervical lymph node,although the superficial cervical and caudal deep cervical lymph nodes were not observed in BALB/cAnNCrl mice.No additional topographic adjective was used for the single tracheobronchal lymph node because a precise homol-ogy with either the right,left,or middle tracheobronchal lymph node of domestic animals could not be ascertained in the present study or by data from the literature (Cuq,1966;Kawashima et al.,1964).A number of lymph nodes that has been described in murine species by other authors were not found in the present study.The facial lymph node as mentioned by Wolvers et al.(1999),and the auricular (Anjuère et al.,1999;Dearman et al.,1996;Sailstad et al.,1995)and pre-auricular lymph node (Hendrickx et al.,1992)probably correspond with the superficial parotid ln.described in our study.The submental ln.,illustrated as bilateral lymph nodes in two papers (Cook,1983;Jacoby and Fox,1984),were not observed as nodes as such,but subcutaneous median lymph noduleswereFig.3.Intra-abdominal lymph nodes in the mouse (ventral view).(3a,3b,3c,3d)Ventral views of the abdominal cavity with the right kidney (a)(turned over to the left side in 3a),the right adrenal gland (b),the descending colon (c)(displaced in 3c)and the deep circumflex iliac artery (d);numbers (7,17–22)according to the description in Table 2.17W.Van den Broeck et al./Journal of Immunological Methods 312(2006)12–19present just caudal to the intermandibular synchondro-sis.Furthermore,there was no evidence of the caudal deep cervical ln.which has been described ventral to the trachea and dorsal to the sternum at the level of the first two ribs (Barone et al.,1950).Similarly,the existence of the superficial cervical ln.which has inconstantly be seen medial to the cervical part of the trapezius muscle and cranial to the supraspinatus muscle (Barone et al.,1950;Cuq,1966),and the presence of the femoral ln.which has been described in the inguinal region (Björkdahl et al.,1999;Mishell et al.,1980)could not be demonstrated.An intrathoracic pulmonary lymph node (Teitelbaum et al.,1999)was also absent in all mice examined in the present study.The (ileo)cecal lnn.,described in the ileocecal mesentery as accessory nodes (Barone et al.,1950;Cuq,1966),were not observed inour study,whereas the sacral ln.which has been illustrated by Popesko et al.(1992)most likely refers to the caudal mesenteric ln.as defined by Kawashima et al.(1964).Despite the minute dissections and the use of specific intrahepatic and intralienal stimulation techni-ques,our study failed to demonstrate the existence of hepatic and lienal lymph nodes in BALB/cAnNCrl mice.The presence of these nodes in mice has been discussed by Barone et al.(1950).According to these authors,murine lienal nodes are absent,which corre-sponds with the present findings in BALB/cAnNCrl mice.On the other hand,they observed a (retro)hepatic or portal lymph node which could hardly be discerned from the lymph nodes adjacent to the stomach and the pancreas.This lymph node corresponds most likely with the pancreaticoduodenal lymph node described in the present study.A novel finding in our study was the presence of a small and inconstant lateral iliac lymph node in BALB/cAnNCrl mice.The presence and lymphoid nature of the latter lymph node were verified by histological examination.It is not unlikely that this structure,along with other lymph nodes,might also be demonstrated in other murine species and breeds.To date,no precise nor conclusive data are available concerning the presence of hemal lymph nodes in mice.The exact function of these nodes,which are very obvious in some domestic animal species such as oxen and sheep,has still to be elucidated,but probably they perform a spleen-like function,as suggested by their morphology (Bassan et al.,1999).In the present study,the presence of hemal lymph nodes could not be demonstrated neither by macroscopic nor by micro-scopic examination in any of the stimulated or unstimulated regions in BALB/cAnNCrl mice.In summary,we recommend that scientific papers on laboratory animals,and on mice in particular,should carefully observe universally accepted rules of nomen-clature for the identification of all lymphatic organs that are described and investigated.ReferencesAnjuère,F.,Martin,P.,Ferrero,I.,López Fraga,M.,Martinez delHoyo,G.,Wright,N.,Ardavin,C.,1999.Definition of dendritic cell subpopulations present in the spleen,Peyer's

创伤性脑损伤大鼠乙酰胆碱、脑源性神经生长因子表达变化的研究

创伤性脑损伤大鼠乙酰胆碱、脑源性神经生长因子表达变化的研究

创伤性脑损伤大鼠乙酰胆碱、脑源性神经生长因子表达变化的研究目的建立創伤性脑损伤(TBI)模型,探讨创伤性脑损伤大鼠乙酰胆碱(ACh)和脑源性神经生长因子(BDNF)变化及其意义。

方法健康雄性SD 大鼠192只,随机分为对照组(n = 48)和TBI组(n = 144)。

TBI组随机分为:轻度、中度、重度三组,每组48只。

3种TBI组及对照组分别再随机分为15 min、0.5、1、3、6、12、24、48 h各8个亚组,每亚组6只。

参照FEENEY′S法制成轻、中、重型颅脑损伤模型。

分别于致伤后相应观察时间点取TBI组及对照组海马及皮质等脑组织,用酶联免疫吸附法(ELISA)检测ACh、BDNF在不同脑组织中的含量。

结果TBI中ACh与BDNF海马含量变化呈明显正相关(r = 0.340,P < 0.01),ACh与BDNF皮质含量变化也呈明显正相关(r = 0.311,P < 0.01),ACh变化规律是损伤后立即升高,随之迅速下降,降至正常水平以下;BDNF 变化规律是损伤后缓慢升高,随之缓慢下降。

不同程度TBI组及对照组之间ACh、BDNF脑组织总含量不同,差异有高度统计学意义(P < 0.01)。

TBI中相同程度不同时间点之间ACh、BDNF脑组织总含量不同,差异有高度统计学意义(P < 0.01)。

结论TBI中ACH与BDNF在脑组织含量变化呈正相关,且与损伤程度有关,通过ACH与BDNF脑组织含量可以间接反映TBI病变及损伤程度,有可能为临床脑损伤的治疗、损伤程度及预后的判断提供新的方法。

[Abstract] Objective To explore the profiles of acetylcholine (ACh) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in rat models of traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods 192 healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into the control group (n = 48) and TBI group (n = 144). The TBI group was further divided randomly into three secondary groups based on severity of injury (mild, moderate and severe group, each group had 48 cases). These injury graded groups and control group were again stratified into 8 sub-groups according to time from TBI (15 min, 0.5, 1, 3, 6, 12, 24 and 48 h), such that every sub-group had 6 rats. To create TBI models, the rats assigned to injury group were received different powers delivered with reference to FEENEY’S method immediately after the injury and at specific time spots. Hippocampus and cortex samples were collected from each rat. The brain tissue levels of ACh and BDNF were measured with ELISA. Results There was a positive correlation between post-TBI brain tissue levels of ACh and BDNF (r = 0.340, P < 0.01; cortex samples of r = 0.311, P < 0.01). The changes in brain tissue ACh featured by a sudden rise after trauma, a quick decline that ensued and bellowed the normal level. The changes in brain tissue BDNF featured by a gradual rise after trauma, a gradual decline that ensued. The brain tissue levels of Ach and BDNF varied significantly across all groups with different severity of TBI(P < 0.01) and time from injury (P < 0.01). Conclusion In traumatic brain injury, both brain tissue levels of Ach and BDNF change regularly to the degree of injury. Detection of brain tissue ACh and BDNF will be helpful to estimate the degree of injury and pathological changes of the traumatic brain injury.[Key words] Brain injuries; Acetylcholine; Brain-derived neurotrophic factor深入探讨创伤性脑损伤(traumatic brain injury,TBI)迟发性神经元损伤发生机制,研究如何控制其发病过程,寻找新的更有效的治疗方法一直为人们所研究。

Expression characteristics of hepcidin in rat cortex after traumatic brain injury WU Yu-xin, BAO Ying-hui (Department of Neurosurgery, Renji Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, Shanghai 200127, China) Corresponding author: BAO Ying-hui, E-mail: bombbao@ 【Abstract】Objective To investigate the expression characteristics of hepcidin in rat cortex after traumatic brain injury. Method The rat model of controlled cortical impact (CCI) was established to study the changes of hepcidin in the cortex of rats in the early stage of traumatic brain injury (within 72 h), the relationship between iron concentration and hepcidin level, and the expression of hepcidin in neuron in rats' brain within 72 h after traumatic brain injury were analyzed. Hepcidin mRNA was evaluated by quantitative reverse transcriptase-mediated PCR (qRT-PCR); the concentration of hepcidin was evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA); the concentration of the total non-heme iron was evaluated by Iron Assay Kit; the activation of the BMPs/Smad1/5/8 signal pathway was evaluated by Western blotting; the signal strength of hepcidin in the brain tissue cells was evaluated by immunofluorescence, and the colocalization relationship of hepcidin with neurons (NeuN) or astrocytes (GFAP) was analyzed. Result Compared with Sham group, the concentration of iron, the relative expression of hepcidin mRNA, the concentration of hepcidin and the ratio of pSmad1/5/8/Smad1/5/8 in CCI 6 h group had no significant changes (all P > 0.05). The concentration of iron, the relative expression of mRNA, the concentration of hepcidin and the ratio of pSmad1/5/8/Smad1/5/8 in CCI 24 h group and CCI 72 h group were significantly higher than those in Sham group (all P < 0.01). The concentration of iron, the relative expression of mRNA, the concentration of hepcidin and the ratio of pSmad1/5/8/Smad1/5/8 in CCI 72 h + deferoxamine group were significantly lower than those in CCI 72 h group (all P < 0.05). Compared with Sham group, the number of DAPI positive cells in CCI 72 h group decreased and the intracellular fluorescence intensity of hepcidin in CCI 72 h group was significantly higher than that in Sham group (P < 0.0001). Co-localization analysis showed that the co-labeling of neurons and hepcidin signals increased, but there was no obvious co-labeling of astrocytes and hepcidin. Conclusion After traumatic brain injury, iron level in brain tissue is significantly increased, and it may induce the expression of hepcidin by activating BMPs/Smad1/5/8 signaling pathway. The concentration of hepcidin in neurons is upregulated, while the concentration of hepcidin in astrocytes is not changed, indicating that the location of hepcidin in brain tissue cells after traumatic brain injury has selectivity. 【Key words】Controlled cortical impact; Traumatic brain injury; Hepcidin; Co-localization analysis

That is,after the movement of an element,there will be a trace left in the original position.2. Displacement--It means that human lges enable their users to symbolize (refer to)objects,events and concepts which are not present (in time and space)at the moment of communication.3. Stem—Any morpheme or combination of morphemes to which an inflection affix can be added. A stem can be equivalent to a root or may contain a root and a derivational affix.4. Dissimilation-- It refers to the influence exercised by one sound segment on the production of another,so that the two sounds in a sequence become less alike or different.5. Diacritics--A set of symbols added to the letter symbols to make minute (slight)difference between variations of the same sound than the letters alone make possible.6. Theme--It refers to “that which is known or at least obvious in the given situation and from which the speaker proceeds”7. Relational opposites--Converse antonymy is typically seen in reciprocal social roles,kinship relations,temporal and spatial relations,there are always 2 entities involved,one presupposes the other.8. Sapir-Whorf Hypotheses--Our lge helps mould our way of thinking,and therefore,different lges may probably express our unique way of understanding the world. On the one hand,lge may determine our thinking patterns;on the other hand,similarity between lges is relative,the greater their structural differentiation is,the more diverse their conceptualization of the world will be.9. Predicate logic--It studies the internal structure of simple propositions. (Or,it deals with expressions containing predicates,arguments and quantifiers).10. Conversational implicature--It is a type of implied meaning,which can be deduced on the basis of the conventional meaning of words together with the context,under theguidance of the CP and its maxims. It is comparable to illocutionary force in that they are both concerned with the contextual meaning.IV. Give brief answers to the following questions. (12+8=20)1. What are the main concerns of general linguistics?General linguistics includes at least five parameters,namely,phonology,morphology,syntax,semantics and pragmatics. The following are the main branches of linguistics. (2)Phonetics studies the speech sounds,including the production of the speech.Phonology studies the rules governing the structure,distribution,and sequencing of speech sounds and the shape of syllables.(2 points)Morphology is concerned with the internal organization of words.It studies the minimal units of meaning ---morphemes and word-formation. (2)Syntax is about principles of forming and understanding correct English sentences. The form or structure of a sentence is governed by the rules of syntax. (2)Semantics studies how meaning is encoded in a language.(2)Pragmatics is the study of meaning in context. (2)2. Explain the speech act theory with examples.Speech act theory was put forward by J Austin in 1950s. His first shot at the theory is the claim that there are two types of sentences: performative and constatives. (2)The uttering of these sentences is the doing of an action.They are called performatives. (1) E.g. a. I name this ship the queen Elizabeth. b. I promise to finish the work in time. c. I bet you sixpence it will rain tomorrow. (2)While a sentence like this "I pour some liquid into the tube." is called constative. It is a description of what the speaker is doing at the time of speaking.(3)。

我国心血管药物不良反应中英文本体构建与知识发现研究

我国心血管药物不良反应中英文本体构建与知识发现研究

中文摘要我国心血管药物不良反应中英文本体构建与知识发现研究目的:构建我国心血管药物不良反应中英文本体知识库,系统性表示心血管药物不良反应,为心血管药物不良反应的系统性分析与知识发现提供资源、奠定基础;基于本体分析心血管药物不良反应发生模式;开发数据挖掘算法对药物引起不良反应的类效应进行知识发现。

方法:根据我国《新编药物学》(第17版)在相关网站收集我国目前使用的心血管药物,收集心血管药物说明书,提取药品说明书中的药物和不良反应信息并翻译。

将不良反应信息映射到不良反应本体OAE(the Ontology of Adverse Events),对于OAE中没有的不良反应术语,注释后添加到OAE中,同时将药物信息映射到药物本体NDF-RT(The National Drug File-Reference Terminology)。

通过本体构建工具OntoFox和Ontorat构建心血管药物不良反应中英文本体OCVDAE(The Ontology of Cardiovascular Drug Adverse Events),构建本体时将NDF-RT中的药物成分和作用机制分类集成到OCVDAE中,并建立药物—不良反应之间的联系。

基于本体统计分析心血管药物不良反应发生模式,包括药物类别、不良反应类别、常见不良反应等。

然后,通过数据挖掘算法(即统计学算法),包括药物类别中不良反应比率(drug proportional class level ratio,PCR),药物类水平比例报告比值比法(the drug class level proportional reporting ratio, C-PRR),药物类水平卡方(the drug class-χ2,C-χ2)、每类药物中包含的药物数量阈值及热图等方法,基于OCVDAE的分类、药物成分和作用机制分类,挖掘有统计意义的不良反应类效应。

最后,通过PubMed中的文献对所发现的部分类效应知识进行验证。

Journal of Literature and Art Studies, February 2019, Vol. 9, No. 2, 164-174doi: 10.17265/2159-5836/2019.02.002 Corpus-based Contrastive Analysis of “Root” MetaphorTranslation in Dream of the Red MansionLIU XiaoNanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Nanjing, ChinaBoth the study of metaphor and translation has taken an empirical turn in the past decade, corpus-based method hasprovided a practical and objective way for investigating metaphor translation from a comparative and cognitiveperspective. The purpose of this paper is to reveal the cognitive differences in the perception of “root” betweenEnglish and Chinese through a contrastive analysis of the two English translations of a Chinese classicnovel—Dream of the Red Mansion , the two translations are completed by a native Chinese speaker and a nativeEnglish speaker respectively. The study is divided into two parts, the first part is devoted to a contrastive analysis oftypical examples selected from the data acquired from the online English-Chinese parallel corpus with the onlinecorpus analysis tool Wmatrix, two deductions have been drawn through the analysis concerning the cognitiondifference in root perception: (1) the integral perception of root and a plant in Chinese VS the binary cognition inEnglish; (2) the concreteness of “root” metaphor in Chinese VS the abstractness in “root” metaphor application inEnglish. Then the two deductions are further demonstrated through corpus-assisted study of “root” metaphor inlarge online corpuses. The differences in root metaphor usage as well as the cognitive reasons behind thedifferences have been investigated with emphasis not only on the dominant conceptual root metaphors, but also thesemantic preference of the collocated words of the metaphors.Keywords: “root” metaphor, Dream of the Red Mansion , corpus-based comparative analysis, cognitive structureIntroductionMetaphoricity is used to measure the degree of metaphor’s novelty. Poetic metaphors are normally more evocative, which are deemed as possessing a higher degree of metaphoricity; while metaphors frequently adopted in daily converstaion tend to raise little metalinguistic thinking. Both speaker and listener interpret those metaphors subconsciously, in other words, there is no tension between the symbol adopted and its cognitive representation. Hawkins (2001) has pointed out that social and cultural cognition is rooted in group habit and mental model, which forms in the long-term social interaction; and the influences of these solidified communal cognitive resource are to a large degree subconscious. So it’s reasonable to hypothesize that metaphors with lower degree of metaphoricity can fit in the cognitive structure in our brain easily , and thereby can be used as a window for us to study how human minds work.This paper conducts a contrastive cognitive analysis of a specific metaphor—metaphors based on theLIU Xiao, Ph.D., lecturer, College of Foreign Languages, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Nanjing, China.CORPUS-BASED CONTRASTIVE ANALYSIS OF “ROOT” METAPHOR TRANSLATION165“root” image, which can be included in Plant metaphor. Conversations between the characters in one of Chinese literary classic—Dream of the Red Mansion will be used as materials for the study. More accurately, a comparison will be carried out between the root metaphors in the two English translation versions of the novel and the original. The two main research questions are: first, the difference between root metaphor translations and between the translation and original; second, the cognitive and culture differences in English and Chinese that lie behind the differences.The reason that two translation versions of the novel are used for analysis is that we believe translation itself is a cognitive activity, a translator’s mission is to depict the reality and thoughts of the authors based on his or her own interaction with the world (Wang, 2012). It’s commonly acknowledged that metaphor translation is rather difficult, especially non-literary metaphors, that’s because those so-called “dead” metaphors, metaphors with lower degree of metaphoricity, evolve on the specific cultural background and certain cognitive structure, it’s the variance between them that upgrade the translation challenge.So far, we have demonstrated the close connection between daily-used subconscious metaphors and our deep-lying cognitive structure, and that different translations of the same metaphor can reflect the variance between cognition and cultural pre-assumption. Besides, Frank (2008) mentioned that the cognitive pattern involved in discourse is traceable due to the restraints of culture. Xu (2014) also emphasized that the usage of metaphor mirrors the value judgement of the author. Thereby, the feasibility of the research design of this paper has already been proven.The research consists of the following steps: firstly, based on the previous theories and with the assistance of the online corpus Wmatrix, “root” metaphors in The Dream of Red Mansion and the correspondent English translation are analyzed so as to reveal the cognitive difference between English and Chinese; secondly, key word search results in large online corpuses of English and Chinese are used to prove the cognitive differences with data support. The original material for metaphor analysis is selected from the English-Chinese parallel corpus of Dream of the Red Mansion formed by the Humanities and Science Institute of Shaoxing. The large online corpus used for the verification of the hypothesis includes the Modern Chinese Corpus of State Language Commision, and COCA. The first step mainly focuses on the difference of the number and main conceptual metaphor of “root” metaphors in the two English translations and the cognitive reasons behind the difference. The second step adopts quantitative method to provide corpus support for the conclusions made through the sentence analysis, then further contrastive analysis was carried out about the semantic preference and the pragmatic value of root metaphor.Literature ReviewThe study of metaphors in Dream of the Red Mansion accentuates poetic and literary metaphor, while pays little attention to the metaphors with lower degree of metaphoricity in the dialogue of characters. At the same time, the research purposes of most relevant studies of metaphor translation are the strategy of tranlation or the style of translators, cognitive pragmatic approach is rarely applied to metaphor translation. As a matter of fact, metaphor translation is not only the equivalent research at the language level, it’s more about the blending and exchanges between different cognitve structure and cultural background. The application of core principles of cognitive linguistics in metaphor translation is closely associated with the exploration of cognitive mechanism166CORPUS-BASED CONTRASTIVE ANALYSIS OF “ROOT” METAPHOR TRANSLATION (Wang, 2014). The study of metaphor translation opens a way to the the revelation of cultural and cognitive differences. One critical issue of cognitive metaphor study is that most research rely solely on the author’s reflection, corpus linguistics can complement this research model by providing objective data and statistics. The combination of cognitive linguistics and corpus linguistics has become an irreversable trend. As one of the key topics of cognitive linguistics, metaphor study should make full use of online corpus to provide statistical support for the hypothesis or preliminary conclusion.The Number and Proportion of “Root” Metaphor in the Original Text and the Translation Firstly, by searching the key character «根» (root) in the online English-Chinese parallel corpus of The Dream of Red Mansion, we found that «根» appeared 101 times in the corpus, among which 49 are quantifiers, and of the remaining 52 sentences, 34 metaphors were identified, which means the metaphor proportion of all sentences involving «根» is as high as 65%.Then we compared the English version translated by Hawkes with the BNC (sample written), and in the “Plant” thematic domain we found that “root”, “roots” and “rooted” are used 25 times, among which only 6 “root” metaphor, the metaphoric proportion is 24%. The same search method is applied to Yang’s transltion, in which we found 28 places involving “root”, and 13 “root” metaphors, metaphoric proportion is 46%. The statistics are listed in the following table.Table 1Root Metaphor Proportion in Chinese and English TranslationsText Root Root metaphor Root metaphor (%)52 43 65% Chinese28 13 46%textYang’sHawkes’s text 25 6 24%The following preliminary results can be drawn from Table 1: (1) The propotion of root metaphor in the original Chinese text is very high (65%), which means compared with its literal usage, “root” is more frequently used metaphorically, such as “life root”, “disease root”, “disaster root”, “wall root”, “togue root”, “window root”etc.; (2) The proportion of root metaphor in the two English versions is much lower than the orignal text, which indicates that a large portion of “root” metaphor in the original Chinese text has not been reserved, paraphrasing replaces literal translation; (3) The proportion of “root” metaphor in Yang’s translation is obviously higher than Hawkes’s version, the differences arise from the translators’ translation purpose, strategy, their perspective in comprehending the original text, as well as the cognitive and cultural background of the translators.The hypothesis of this paper is that the main reason leading to various interpretations of the translator of “root” metaphor lies in the cognitive difference betweeen English and Chinese native speakers, which is closely under the influence of cultural pattern and ideology. Although there have been plenty studies about the translation of Dream of the Red Mansion, most research attrribute the reason of different translation to the intended choice of the translators to meet certain purpose, for example, Yang tries to spread traditional Chinese culture, that explains why he reserves more literal forms of “root” metaphor than Hawkes, who puts more emphasisi on the simplification of the understanding process of English readers. We admit that the choice andCORPUS-BASED CONTRASTIVE ANALYSIS OF “ROOT” METAPHOR TRANSLATION167intention of translators do play an important role in the different metaphor translations, but subconcsiouly, the deep-lying cognitive model and cultural preassumption play a bigger role in determining the translator’s perspertive, resulting in difference understandings of the same metphor, which leads to various translations. The next part of the paper will list several examples extracted from both the Chinese original and the two English transltions.The Cognition of Root in Chinese and EnglishBy combing through the Chinese materials, we classified the plant meatphors in The Dream of Red Mansion s into five categories: PLANT AND FAMILY, PLANT AND SOCIAL RELATIONSHIP, PLANT AND DISEASE, PLANT AND LIFE, PLANT AND ARCHITECTURE. For Chinese, root is an inseparable part of any plant, so root metaphor can easily trigger the conceptual metaphor of the plant as a whole. The following example is based on the PLANT AND FAMILY conceptual metaphor.a. 薛家根基不错,且现今大富,薛蝌生得又好,且贾母又作保山。
