This paper analyzes the formation of Wuhan metropolitan cluster space from the perspective of power relationship. A "twin-city" approach is developed in the peripheral area of Wuhan caused by the game between local governments at different levels. With the equal development opportunities in all directions and the alliances between different district governments and capital, the balancedly embedded cluster space is formed in Wuhan metropolitan area. And if there are no huge internal and external changes, the cluster space in Wuhan will continue to develop.展开更多

This paper, through the transitivity system, presents a critical discourse analysis of "Great Minds Meet"—Yang Lan One-on-One about G20, a talk show on Zhejiang TV of China in 2016. It verifies the applicability and feasibility of the transitivity system in decoding the speakers' ideological positions and their power relationship. Based on the analysis of six types of processes, this paper reveals:(1) the linguistic choices made by the interviewee Kim Yong present his optimistic attitude towards the main topics in this TV talk show;(2) the interviewee has a strong power in facilitating this show;(3) an atmosphere of harmony among all speakers is maintained constantly.展开更多

Thirty subjects participated in the study. The band therapy included greetings, warm-up exercises with music, singing with dance, playing instruments, closing speech, and stretching with background music. Band therapy was held for 40 minutes once per week, for a total of four sessions, in the activity room of the nursing home. Findings showed that grasping power, depression, and personal relationships were improved at posttest, but the differences were not statistically significant. A better study design to compare the effects of band therapy with the other group, and a more simple and repeated intervention for the elderly to follow without stress might be necessary.展开更多
