A comparison of the dominant meta programme patterns in accounting undergraduate students and accounting lecturers at a UK business school

Meta programmes are a means of describing the behavioural traits that a person exhibits when interacting with other people. An understanding of meta programmes can improve communication between individuals and this may have implications for teaching. The purposes of this study are first to identify the dominant meta programme patterns of first year accounting undergraduates at a UK business school. An earlier pilot study validated use of the Motivation Profile Questionnaire (MPQ) to elicit the dominant meta programmes of accounting lecturers at the same Business School (Brown, 2002). Secondly, the students' meta programmes are compared with those of their accounting teachers to identify whether there are any differences or similarities between the two groups. The matching of the meta programmes of the teachers and students would enhance communication whilst major differences in meta programmes would make communication more difficult. A sample of 62 first year accounting undergraduates and 20 accountancy teachers completed the MPQ. The results indicate that, on average, the accounting students have similar dominant meta programme patterns to their accounting teachers. The implications of the findings for improving communication and therefore teaching are discussed, along with the scope for further research.

用于通信系统的干扰对消电路设计与实现

针对通信设备应用的复杂化和对在复杂电磁环境下工作的设备电磁兼容性提出的更高要求，通过分析对消技术的基本原理，提出了一种模拟电路和数字电路相结合的干扰对消技术，并研制出了基于该技术的干扰对消原理样机。对该样机的单机测试和系统联试结果表明，该对消技术具备点频干扰和噪声干扰的抑制能力，对消收敛时间小于100 ms，对消比大于43 dB，适合在窄带通信中应用并可推广到其他领域。该成果正逐步在实际工程中得到运用。

Promoting Giving Campaigns in University Websites: A Cross-cultural Comparison between the United States and South Korea

ABSTRACT

This study was designed to compare the ways the websites promote giving campaigns between the United States and South Korea. Furthermore, this study explored how the campaign appeals are associated with the distinct cultural values between universities in the United States and Korea. Guided by a content analysis of 200 universities in the United States and South Korea, the findings of this study demonstrated that, compared to the Korean university websites, U.S. university websites more frequently targeted university-affiliated donors, including alumni, students, parents, and so forth, and used multimedia-based exemplars about the giving campaigns.     

马克思主义文艺思想的现实指引——六中全会决定和胡锦涛讲话理论溯源

党的十七届六中全会关于深化文化体制改革推动社会主义文化大发展大繁荣若干重大问题的决定，和胡锦涛总书记在中国文联第九次和中国作协第八次代表大会上的讲话，都从马克思主义文艺思想出发，在艺术实践规律的基础上提出并阐发了许多文艺理论的重大问题。而关于文艺家要承担历史责任、提倡文以载道、鼓励文艺原创、自觉抵制低俗之风等，都是当前深具实践意义与艺术学理意义的重大问题。如从理论与实际相结合的意义上加以深入领会，必然会有力推动社会主义文艺的大发展大繁荣的伟大战略目标的早日实现。     

跨文化交际中的禁忌语浅议

禁忌语作为不同文化普遍存在的一种特殊形式,在交际中扮演着重要的角色。因而,在教学中教师应该尽可能的给学生讲解与文化相关的知识。只有这样英语学习者才能真正的表达出自己所想要表达的意思,才能提高他们的跨文化交际能力。
