Strange gods

ABSTRACT

The current study focused on examining the relationships of positive social attitudes with aspects of well-functioning. Universal-diverse orientation(UDO), a social attitude characterized by awareness and acceptance of both the similarities and differences among people, was measured with the Miville-Guzman Universality-Diversity Scale, Short Form (MGUDS-S; Miville et al., 1999; Fuertes et al., 2000). The MGUDS-S contains three subscales: Diversity of Contact, Relativistic Appreciation, and Comfort with Differences. The MGUDS-S was administered with measures of well-functioning. In the first condition, 183 undergraduates completed the MGUDS-S and scales measuring coping skills, positive thinking, self-efficacy, and optimism. In the second condition, 107 undergraduates completed the MGUDS-S and scales measuring social connectedness, personal self-esteem, and collective self-esteem. Multivariate multiple regression analyses revealed the MGUDS-S subscales were significantly predicted by social self-efficacy, general selfefficacy, problem-focused coping, collective self-esteem, and gender. Implications for future research and practice are discussed.

神奇的肉食植物

肉食植物又称食虫植物。这种植物能借助特殊的结构捕捉昆虫或其他小动物,靠消化酶、细菌或两者的作用将猎物分解、吸收。许多肉食植物不仅能进行光合作用,还能消化动物蛋白质,因此能适应一些极端环境。其诱捕工具多为叶的变态。半数以上的食肉植物,其特点是花两侧对称。食肉植物的捕虫机制有的是利用产生的黏性液体粘住猎物,有的是用像瓶子似的叶子引诱猎物进入后再封口等。大部分食肉植物都生长在潮湿荒地、酸沼、树沼、泥岸等水分丰富而士壤酸性缺乏氮素的环境。

The Strange Case of Mr Bloom

The intention of this paper is to suggest that the educational philosophy of Allan Bloom merits renewed consideration, and that such consideration reveals major failings in contemporary educational philosophy. A prerequisite of such consideration is an examination of the ways in which his ideas have been misinterpreted. In particular, Bloom is neither a political conservative nor an educational traditionalist, nor an advocate of the Great Books programme. Bloom's recovery of the Socratic or classical political rationalist approach to education both reveals enormous shortcomings in the dominant conceptions of the nature of philosophy of education, and revitalises an alternative conception already widely accepted among classicists and political philosophers.

奥尼尔《奇异的插曲》中的悲剧女主角探析

《奇异的插曲》奠定了奥尼尔作为重要剧作家的地位。在该剧中,奥尼尔多角度地描写主人公尼娜对清教主义思想的大胆突破及对现代人生幸福生活进行的大胆追求。剧本塑造了一位充满人格魅力、不向命运屈服的女性。但是,残酷的社会现实注定了尼娜无助的人生,男权的统治迫使尼娜不得不放弃自我,接受男权社会为女性设计的命定的出路。同时,尼娜自身的弱点,尤其是她病态的占有欲加剧了她自己的悲剧结局。梳理女主人公的悲剧人生,我们从中可以窥视奥尼尔的妇女观。
