The study is to focus on major factors that infl uence consumers in their impulsive buying behavior. This study aims to investigate whether such personal online fi nancial services will affect consumers' impulse buying intentions. This study is based on the consumer impulse buying model and studies the relationship between impulse buying intention and consumer self-efficacy and perceived value. The results showed that consumers who were more confident about their ability to use the " Ant Credit Pay " had a higher cognition of it, and were more likely to have impulse buying intention. Moreover, time pressure and the availability of money have an impact on the cognition of " Ant Credit Pay ", thus promoting the occurrence of impulse buying intention.

Under the legal system of many countries represented by the United States, the main focus of discussion on same-sex marriage is the contradiction between it and religious freedom. People usually make a dualistic antagonism between the negative evaluation of homosexuality represented by Christianity and the appeal for equal rights of homosexuals, but in fact, there may not be a direct positive head-on confrontation between the two at least at the legal level. The protection of citizens'basic rights in the sense of constitution is mostly due to the resistance to the expansion of state public power. Whether it supports the same-sex marriage system or not, it needs to rely on the compulsory endorsement in the sense of national system construction. Therefore, how to shape the marriage on the premise that the value benchmark must be chosen at the national legislative and judicial levels, and how to deal with the protection of the rights of people who hold opposite moral concepts after such shaping is the core and key of the problem.

This paper examines the mechanism of role ambiguity and role conflict in the relationship between employee perceived ethical climate and their well-being in the workplace. The participants were randomly selected from some enterprises in mainland China. A total of 183 sets of valid questionnaires were collected. The survey results support the following hypotheses: 1a: There is a negative correlation between perceived ethical climate and employee role conflict; 1b: There is a negative correlation between perceived ethical climate and employee role ambiguity. 2a: Employee role ambiguity plays a mediating role between the perceived ethical climate and employee well-being; 2b: Employee role conflict plays a mediating role between employees' perceived ethical climate and employee well-being. Based on the results, the research suggests that enterprises should develop a high level of ethical climate to reduce employees’ role ambiguity and role conflict and increase employees well-being in the workplace.

Based on the resource conservation theory, this study analyzed the relationships among stressful life events, external locus of control, subjective well-being and internet addiction. There are three hundred and seventy-four college students participated in this survey who come from the universities of Macau, Zhuhai, Nanjing and Shenyang. The research results showed that (1) stressful life events have negative impact on subjective well-being; (2) stressful life events have positive impact on internet addiction; (3) subjective well-being mediates the relationship between stressful life events and internet addiction; (4) external locus of control moderates the relationship between stressful life events and subjective well-being. According to the research results, this study raise the suggestions for college students about how to decrease the negative impact of stressful life events on subjective well-being and how to overcome internet addiction.

It is not sufficient for enterprises to implement low-cost strategies based solely on the internal resources’ optimization. In this connection, from the perspective of external supplier relationships, ABJ model and Weiss model are used to study the antecedents of enterprise cost stickiness, with a view to opening the “black box” of enterprise cost control. With reference to the sample of A-share listed enterprises from 2011 to 2019, it is found that supplier concentration is negatively correlated with cost stickiness, and that the capability of managers enhances the relationship between the supplier concentration and cost stickiness. Furthermore, the degree of supplier fluctuation is positively correlated with enterprise cost stickiness, but the capability of managers can inhibit the impact of the supplier fluctuation on cost stickiness. Based on the research findings, it is proposed that enterprise cost control should start from both internal management and external supplier relationships, and competition between enterprises has expanded to the supply chain level. The capability of managers exists and is effective in the competition at the supply chain level, as it will help enterprises adjust the impact of external supplier relationships on internal cost stickines.

There are many problems in teaching Chinese as a foreign language, such as unclear identification of teaching content, unclear teaching objectives, unclear teaching objects, non-standard teaching difficulty and poor teaching effect. Based on the concept-based instruction and design which is widely used in the International Baccalaureate curriculum as one of the six major approach to teaching, this paper will adopt the viewpoint of Mei Lichong (1994), which divided the culture teaching contents of TCFL into declarative and procedural knowledge to set up “concept, knowledge, skill” three-dimensional structure of culture instruction and design of TCFL. It contains two sub-structures: the structure of knowledge: cultural concept, cultural theme, cultural knowledge, and the structure of process: cultural concept, cultural process, cultural strategy/skill. The concept-based instruction and design, proposing the KUD model, making the curriculum from two-dimensional to three-dimensional, will greatly promote the students' deep understanding, make students go from cultural crossing to cultural transcendence in cross-cultural communication, and improve the discipline literacy in second language learning.

Currently, the global economy is grappling with novel challenges that traditional business growth models cannot sufficiently address for sustainable development. Employees, as crucial participants in production and operational activities, are fundamental to fostering innovation within teams and organizations. Therefore, studying employee innovative behavior is imperative. Innovative behavior, essentially an active trait, is primarily motivated by a proactive personality. This study aims to investigate the factors that encourage proactive personality, thriving at work, and innovative behavior. Utilizing structural equation modeling, data from 456 employees were meticulously gathered and analyzed. Findings reveal that employees with a higher degree of proactive personality are more likely to demonstrate innovative behaviors. Notably, thriving at work mediates the relationship between proactive personality and innovative behaviors. Furthermore, the study indicates that an innovative climate amplifies the positive impact of a proactive personality on thriving at work. In simpler terms, a more robust innovation climate bolsters the positive effects of a proactive personality. Lastly, the study discovered that an innovation climate positively affects the indirect influence of proactive personality on innovation behavior. When an organization has a stronger innovation climate, the mediating effect of individual thriving at work is enhanced. The paper concludes with a discussion on the theoretical and practical implications of these findings and offers directions for future research.

Practicalness is an important characteristic of the discipline of Teaching Chinese to Speakers of Other Languages (TCSOL) and it is fully embodied in the syllabus of the Ed.D Program in TCSOL. Using practicalness as a reference, the article looks into the syllabi and courses of the Ed.D Programs in Applied Linguistics and TESOL in three American and British universities, finding that the professional orientation for these professional degrees is implemented in orientedness toward learners, classrooms and learning environments. The author argues that practicalness and orientedness are both embodiments of professional orientation and that academic training which is oriented toward practice is important in training professionals in TCSOL.

This paper analyzes the features manifested in the usage of the Chinese synonyms of “Chansheng” (“to emerge”) and “Fasheng” (“to occur”) in language use data corpus and the explanatory information as illustrated in usage examples provided in dictionaries for language learners. A comparison is made of the two types of analyses. The analyses reveal some discrepancies between usage examples and use authenticity in that usage examples provided in dictionaries lack representativeness and sufficiency in connotation meanings. Error analyses of learners’ use of the pair of the synonyms in Chinese suggest that an absence of considering factors concerning the learners might lead to inadequate use of the Chinese synonyms.

In Macao, a small city with over 400 years of East-West cultural fusion and coexistence of multiple beliefs, the cultural heritage has also a long and rich history. The Historic District of Macao where Chinese and western buildings complement each other, constitutes a unique cultural landscape of Macao. The rich and colorful intangible cultural heritage of Macao has witnessed the cultural tradition handed down by the Macao people from generation to generation. The preservation, research and development of Macao’s cultural heritage will help promote Macao’s cultural tourism industry and enhance the city’s popularity as well as international influence, and film plays a significant role in inheriting and protecting Macao’s cultural heritage and promoting the city’s image. This paper first discusses the relationship between film and Macao's cultural heritage from the perspective of media geography, then points out the specific measures for the preservation and development of Macao's cultural heritage through film, and finally proposes strategies and suggestions from the perspective of media geography to address the existing problems.

Based on a summary of the history of language and cultural exchanges between China and Sudan, this paper analyzes the background of the development of International Chinese Language Education (ICLE) in Sudan from perspectives such as political mutual trust, economic and trade reciprocity, and diplomatic interaction. Then, it studies the current situation of ICLE from the viewpoint of Chinese educational institutions, primary education, and higher education. After that, it analyzes the challenges faced by the development of ICLE from viewpoints like military conflicts and a shortage of educational funds. At long last, it attempts to propose countermeasures and suggestions from the points such as teaching institutions and teaching channels. In Sudan, the education of Chinese for Specific Purposes (CSP) has demonstrated exceptional characteristics, a remarkable development history, and outstanding current and future trends. Examples include“Art Education + Chinese Language Teaching (CLT)”, “Medical Education + CLT”and “Vocational Training + CLT”, all of which have a relatively long history and a significant amount of potential for growth in the future.

Film is a medium for spreading cultural heritage and a carrier for its living preservation, which helps to maintain the vitality of cultural legacy. The first local film in Macao, The Bewitching Braids, not only presents Macao’s World Cultural Heritage--the Historic Centre of Macao, but also reflects Macao’s intangible cultural heritage such as religious beliefs, festive rituals and local dialects, making it an important visual archive for the study of Macao’s history and culture. Taking The Bewitching Braids as the research text, based on Roland Barthes’ theory of image rhetoric, this paper analyzes the embodiment of Macao’s tangible and intangible cultural heritage elements and symbols in the film’s linguistic message layer and the denoted image layer, as well as their connoted roles in shaping the characters, promoting the plot, and expressing the theme of the film, so as to explore how to tell the cultural heritage stories through film.

Since its birth, film has always been closely related to the city. People naturally equate their understanding of a city with its interpretation, perception and cognition presented in the film. “A City Called Macau” is selected as the research subject, and the documentary method is used to analyze the shot of urban Macau sceneries, in order to examine and attest the representation of the city in film language: Firstly, narrative structure is applied to interpret the film; Secondly, the pictorial image of the city is interpreted; Thirdly, the texts and sounds of the shot are also interpreted.This research holds that Macau, as a city of casino, has a very clear image in a variety of films. However, diverse images are shown in this film: sometimes a gentle and peaceful town, sometimes a prosperous and crazy metropolis, and sometimes an extremely romantic utopia. Though its interpretation of Macau’s characteristics from different aspects, “A City Called Macau” leaves deep an impression to the audience.

In the 50 years between 1970 and 2020, with Macau, Taipa and Coloane connected and accessible as one area, Macau’s economy swiftly grew and fl ourished, thus lending impetus to Macau and pushing it towards modernization. Ka Ho village is situated in the isolated north east corner of Coloane and, along the way of the modernization of the Macau peninsula, Ka Ho was also being pulled into this process. Before the 70s, it was simply a site for the leprosy colony; in the 70s and 90s, major infrastructure for electricity, fuel and container port was built in Ka Ho, and roads were constructed for ease of accessibility. In the 90s and after, as Ka Ho began to attract attention and recognition for its own cultural merits as well as its natural environment; modernization in Ka Ho entered a new era of self-consciousness and collaboration. As Ka Ho was initially just being pulled onto the modernization wagon, the development of Ka Ho proceeded at a rather slow pace and the participation of the villagers in the modernization process was simply insuffi cient. However, this slow pace did benefi t Ka Ho in that the local natural environment, the culture and traditions of the local Hakka and part of the older architectures were left intact. To navigate successfully further down the road of modernization for Ka Ho would require collaboration of both the Macau government and the locals in fostering this unique Hakka heritage that is an inherent part of the area, thus cementing Ka Ho as an important element in this multi-cultural global tourism and leisure centre that is Macau.

The performances of Thunderstorm in Hong Kong and Macau in recent years can be rehearsed according to their own characteristics. Using dialect, dancing, there are also amateur forms of practice. However, behind these localized adaptations, it reflects the dramatist' different concepts of Thunderstorm and even the drama. The idea itself does not mean abstract, it just needs to be expressed in the corresponding artistic appearance or form, so that the idea can gain its vitality and art can obtain the desired ideal. Therefore, through the investigation of the Hong Kong and Macau version of Thunderstorm in recent years, we can not only notice the regional interpretation of Thunderstorm, but also have a glimpse of the dramatic art view of the Hong Kong and Macao drama circles. And Thunderstorm has gone beyond the masterpiece itself, reflecting the rich connotation of literature. The original author's profound thoughts on society and life are worthy of our deep consideration.

Using a psychological experimental paradigm of cross-linguistic repetition priming, the present study examines the semantic access mechanism of Russian-English-Chinese trilingual students with different levels of L3 Chinese and the significant priming effects found in all cases. The results show that: (1) for those who are proficient in both L2 and L3, the semantic access to L3 Chinese lexicon is facilitated by L2 English but not by L1 Russian; (2) for those who are proficient in L2 but not in L3, the semantic access to L3 Chinese lexicon is facilitated by L2 English, while L1 Russian plays an inhibitory role; (3) in addition to language proficiency, trilingual semantic access is also influenced by cross-language factors such as language distance, language status, and recency of use.

Cervical cancer and HPV-related diseases can be effectively prevented through HPV vaccination. Yet, in mainland China, there is limited understanding of the associated factors among young people who are at the optimal age for HPV vaccination. This study aimed to investigate the HPV-related knowledge, attitudes, and willingness to vaccinate among this population, analyze associated factors, and provide a basis for primary and secondary cervical cancer prevention strategies. We performed a cross-sectional questionnaire survey, recruiting 892 participants. Of these, 86.7% had heard of the HPV vaccine, and 83.3% reported their willingness to receive the HPV vaccination. Our findings suggest that the most crucial factor influencing vaccine uptake is females who had heard of the HPV vaccine, believed in their ability to self-determine vaccination, encouraged their sexual partners to get vaccinated, and were in favor of incorporating the vaccine into routine vaccinations. In conclusion, despite high willingness, Guangzhou university students have a low actual HPV vaccination rate, with internet and social media being the main, yet insufficient, sources of HPV knowledge. Enhancing vaccination coverage in China requires boosted awareness, cost regulation, and national campaign implementation.

In recent years, China has implemented national wide policy to promote the inclusive fi nancial (IF) services. Such promotion policy is a key measure to help the rural people to alleviate poverty and increase income. Further the policy provides strong support for the implementation of the rural revitalization strategy. First, this study applies a fi xed effect model to test whether the development of inclusive fi nance can increase the rural residents’ income, by analyzing the panel data of 31 provinces from 2011 to 2018. Second, this study further investigates whether “Inclusive Finance Development Plan (2016-2020) ”and the subsequent measures can strengthen the role of inclusive fi nance in promoting rural residents’ income. Last, this study investigates whether economic development can alter the relationship between the development of inclusive fi nance and the income of rural residents. Evidence suggests that the national promoting policy has signifi cantly strengthened the impact of inclusive fi nance on improving rural area income. Also the development of inclusive fi nance has a stronger impact on rural residents’s income in the lower economic development areas than that in the higher economic development areas. Further robustness check on the conclusion is conducted via quantile regression.

The center of the third storey of the façade of Macao’s Church of Saint Paul is the niche of the Virgin Mary, the mother of God as well as the patron of the church. The bronze statue enshrined in the niche is widely believed to be the image of the Assumption of Our Lady, because the church was originally built for the Assumption of Mary, and the main altar corresponding to the surviving frontispiece or façade of the church is also decorated with a work by the Jesuit painter Giacomo Niva, namely The Assumption of Our Blessed Lady. This article investigates this image of the Virgin Mary from the perspective of literature research and iconology and believes that it actually depicts the Virgin’s Conception, because the posture and demeanor of Mary are in line with the description in the “Revelation” Chapter from the Holy Bible. Besides, most of the contemporaneous images of Our Lady’s ascent and conception also supports the scene of this statue. But it neither contradicts the original design concept of the church, that is, celebrating the Assumption of the Virgin nor being inconsistent with the main altar decoration. On the contrary, the church creates and commemorates this Host who connects the earthly world and the celestial world with different motifs of Madre de Deus to enlighten the world.

Abstract: The global obesity issue is progressively worsening, becoming a significant public health challenge. According to statistics, the global obesity population continues to increase, surpassing 30% of the total population, with China's obesity figures also rapidly escalating, exceeding 50% of adults being diagnosed as overweight or obese. Obesity not only affects individual health but also closely associates with various chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disorders, diabetes, imposing a substantial burden on society and economy. Currently, there exists a variety of methods to address obesity, including dietary control, physical activity, pharmaceutical interventions, and surgical treatments. However, among these approaches, bariatric metabolic surgery (BMS) has been proven to be one of the most effective methods, particularly for patients with obesity-related comorbidities, showcasing more significant results. This trend has given rise to the development of metabolic surgery in the context of obesity. China, being one of the nations most severely affected by the obesity issue, has witnessed over two decades of development in the field of metabolic and bariatric surgery. At present, this field is experiencing a phase of rapid expansion. This paper provides an overview of the background and concept of metabolic and bariatric surgery in China, reviews the historical progression and development of this field, including various surgical techniques and technological breakthroughs. Furthermore, it delves into the challenges and opportunities faced by metabolic and bariatric surgery in China and presents recommendations for its future advancement.

Influenza is a common respiratory disease caused by the influenza virus, and each outbreak can result in a large number of infections and deaths worldwide. Predicting the dynamics of influenza outbreaks could be useful for decision-making regarding the allocation of public health resources. Due to the rapid advancement of science and technology in recent years, significant improvements have been made in influenza early warning and prediction, and the original systems have been improved and diversified. In this review, we gather several common influenza prediction systems and early warning methods, as well as some strategies to minimize prediction errors. In addition, we discuss the various data sources and collect the prediction situation on local, regional, national, or global level. Last but not least, we summarized the accuracy and advantages and disadvantages of various prediction methods.

The development of the discipline in patient safety is a common concern in the domain of patient safety worldwide. The “World Annual Summit on Patient Safety, Science and Technology” hosted by the Patient Safety Campaign Foundation in the United States since 2013 has provided a development framework for patient safety, known as “Patient Safety, Science, and Technology” (PS-ST). PS-ST emphasizes maintaining an open state of science and technology related to patient safety, in order to widely absorb the achievements of S&T and develop patient safety knowledge, and paying attention to the “practical and feasible patient safety solutions”, however, there seem to be some shortcomings. PS-ST has not formed its own complete theoretical system, and does not have a complete humanistic concept of patient safety. To become an independent and mature discipline in Health Science, there is still a long way . It is recommended to enrich and improve the discipline of patient safety according to the development concept of “Patient Safety Science & Technology and Humanities” (PSSTH), and to comprehensively construct the PSSTH knowledge system for building a safer health system and a highly reliable healthcare system. To fill the gap, China should develop her own theoretical system and produce textbooks in this field. PSSTH can not only better adapt the needs of China to cultivate “New Medical Science” talents who have a good grasp in “ Medicine, Engineering, Science and Literature”, to address the challenges of economic and social development, new technological revolution and new health risks, but also promote the high-quality development of public hospitals. Based on the understanding of the essence of patient safety and the need for comprehensive prevention and control of Patient Safety Events (PSIs), this article proposes and briefly discusses this viewpoint by using innovative thinking.

Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area is a world-class urban agglomeration currently under construction in China, and is an important support for the future development of the “Belt and Road”. With the rapid development of the economy in Dawan District, excessive development and utilization have caused serious environmental pollution to adversely affect the sustainable development of Dawan District. Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macau are facing cross-border ecological and environmental problems and challenges, and effective ecological environmental protection construction is urgent. The geographical and ecological interdependence of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao determines the necessity of creating a cross-border ecological protection and regulatory legal mechanism in Dawan District, which is also determined by the needs of the ecological management capacity and modernization of the Dawan District.

Within the paradigm of concept-based language instruction, it's propounded that educators should underline not only the practicality of language usage but also the cognitive aspects of language to enhance the effectiveness of language instruction. The genesis and growth of teaching philosophies are driven by a mix of internal and external influences. Utilizing grounded theory, this research determines that individual impetuses, the practicalities of teaching, dynamic feedback, institution allure, and motivations for career development constitute the five primary elements that sway the evolution and crystallization of concept-based teaching philosophies. Together, these five elements and their thirteen secondary components mould the language teaching belief model. The development of this teaching belief ensues along a trajectory of ‘external stimulus-subjective experience-self-identification.' The particular attributes of concept-based language teaching beliefs are also brought to light in this paper.

Poetry, especially metrical poetry differs from other genres of literature for its unique creation of meter and rhyme. Form and content are the two criteria of poetry appreciation. Form includes the outer poetic structure, the use of meter and rhyme and antithesis (dui zhang) particularly in Chinese metrical poetry. Content refers to the meaning, imagery and mood of a poem. The quality of poetry translation is also assessed by comparing both form and content between two languages. This article aims to discuss the possibility of making pure form correspondence by exploring the maximum equivalence in translating Chinese metrical poetry into English. Such “form equivalence” in Chinese poetry translation refers not only to the structure and rhyming that have long been studied, but to the tonal prosodic patterns, in other words, whether the ping and ze tones of Chinese characters can correspond to the stressed and unstressed syllables of English words, and whether the number of syllables per line can be consistent with the number of tones in the original poem, all of which have rarely been discussed in translations between Chinese and English metrical poetry. Keeping the meaning and spirit of the source text (hereinafter referred to as “ST”) is important, but if the form (both meter and rhyme) of poetry can also be entirely rendered into another language, would that be even more perfect or is such perfection attainable and necessary?

This study uses the survey method and combines proxy efficacy and government trust, with aim to explore the social and cognitive factors that affect the COVID-19 vaccination intention of young people in Macao SAR based on the health belief model (HBM). The results show that perceived susceptibility, perceived benefits, and cues to actions are positively related to the COVID-19 vaccination intentions, while perceived severity and perceived barriers are negatively related to the COVID-19 vaccination intention. Additionally, this study finds that government trust as a moderating variable facilitates the positive effect of perceived susceptibility meanwhile weakens the negative effect of perceived severity on the COVID-19 vaccination intention; and that proxy efficacy suppresses the negative effect of perceived severity on the COVID-19 vaccination intentions.

The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea has established a relatively well-developed system of conservation and optimum utilization of fishery resources, which provides a sufficient legal guarantee for the sustainable development of fish stocks. However, the growing problem of global climate change, in particular sea level rise and ocean warming, has significantly challenged the regime for the conservation and optimum utilization of fishery resources under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, which is mainly manifested in the possible change of fisheries resources jurisdiction, the deterioration of the overfishing situation, and the increase of international fisheries disputes. Based on this, measures such as maintaining or freezing the territorial sea baselines, preserving the rights of maritime features, strengthening cooperation among countries, and improving regional and international governance mechanisms may stabilize the current international maritime order.

Macao has been producing and publishing comprehensive localized teaching materials in Portuguese and Chinese (Putonghua) since the 1980s. Based on the third space theory, the researcher explores the commonalities and differences in the cultural genre penetration and spatial presentation of Portuguese and Chinese teaching materials in Macao, and attempts to explore the paths of third space creation and mutual appreciation of Portuguese and Chinese localized teaching materials in Macao. Researcher selected Portuguese-language textbooks Passo a passo...EM PORTUGUÊS (IPOR, 2010) and Português Global (Instituto Politécnico de Macau, 2011), while the Chinese language textbooks Putonghua Textbook (Gabinete da Educação e Assuntos da Juventude, 2010) and A Course in International Chinese (Macao Polytechnic Institute, 2020) as typical samples to analyse and interpret. The results of the study show that: 1) the localised textbooks as a whole present a turn towards ethnorelativism and multiculturalism in the third space model by guiding the initial reshaping of a passive worldview and the horizontal juxtaposition of multicultural facts; 2) the role of the textbooks towards the third space model: The selection of material is presented through the overlap of two cultural spaces and the combination of the everyday and the situational, positioning the role of the "teacher's guide" . The selection of materials promotes the role of "pedagogical collaborator" by actively stepping out of the constraints of the first space, correcting the stereotypes of the second space and drawing a third cultural picture. 3) Based on the commonality of spatial presentation, Passo highlights the natural transition between the two cultures through the co-presentation and alternation of characters and scenes in the first and second spaces. A Course in International Chinese 's use of topic contemporaneity to guide learners to actively explore the advantages of negotiation between spaces is evident. Portuguese Global guides learners to explore the "cultural interface" and construct a third identity by creating two spatially permeable pathways of "intercultural interlocutors" and "intercultural content". Putonghua Textbook are constructed in an immersive first space element with conversational discourse, practice of local features, and life situations questions, which is worthy of study in other textbooks. To sum up, exploring the localized creation of third spaces in different language materials in the same region can further explore the value of writing materials for mutual learning and appreciation.

In the era of Web 2.0, user content generation (UGC) communities, such as Douyin, Xiaohongshu, Weibo, etc., continue to emerge with the development of network interaction technology. In the UGC community, users can share product experience and life experience by communicating with other users. At the same time, they can also collect the information they want to know. However, if some users do not actively participate in community content contribution and other activities, which could hinder the co-creation of user and community value, resulting in the gradual shrinking of the community resource pool and the gradual decline in user stickiness. Therefore, this study is based on motivation theory and social network theory to discuss how to improve users' willingness to participate in the UGC community. With centrality as the moderator variable and community belonging as the mediating variable, to explore the influencing factors of community user participation willingness, and to provide suggestions for the sustainable and good development of the UGC community.

Students’ motivation in learning English in class is not static but dynamic and multidimensional. This has been recognized by more and more researchers, but studies of this phenomenon are still in early stage. Besides, researches on Macau local university students’ (non-English majors) learning motivation in English class on the basis of Dynamic Systems Theory have not been found. In order to explore the features of these students’ learning motivation in English class, and find out the factors that influence their English learning, a case study is conducted to investigate the change of students’ motivation in learning English in the classroom context. It reveals that under the influence of different situational contexts and external factors, the change of students’ motivation in learning English shows individual differences, while at the same time follows some certain patterns - the attractor state. These findings may be beneficial to English teaching and learning in Macau universities, helping teachers better motivate Macau local students to learn English in class.

Based on existing literature, this study employed untimed grammaticality judgment tasks and target word monitoring experiments to investigate the development of explicit and implicit knowledge among Thai learners of the Chinese language. The research findings reveal that language proficiency and the presence of sentence violations significantly impact the development of explicit knowledge, whereas the influence of grammatical construction types is statistically insignificant. Furthermore, language proficiency and grammatical construction types exert significant effects on response times in implicit knowledge tests. Notably, native Chinese speakers exhibit the shortest response times in target word monitoring tasks, while low-proficiency Thai learners of Chinese show the longest response times. Additionally, the study identifies an interaction between language proficiency and grammatical construction types. Lastly, language proficiency, grammatical construction types, and the presence of sentence violations significantly influence participants’ accuracy judgments in implicit knowledge tests. These results collectively suggest an inherent asynchrony and imbalance in the development of explicit and implicit knowledge, with language production being contingent on the monitoring role of explicit knowledge. The attainability of learner's implicit knowledge to a native speaker level appears to be contingent on the complexity of the learned Chinese language segments.

Physics is the cornerstone of technological development, and it affects our lives every moment. This article starts from the perspective of physicists studying the fundamental problems of nature. Through the narration of the discovery of atoms, the evolution of quantum mechanics, and the history of the development of physics today, it demonstrates the important role of physics in the development of technology.

Agriculture, as a basic industry in China, is a major event affecting national economy and people's livelihood. Agricultural production efficiency is an important indicator for measuring the overall agricultural productivity, and it has been a research hotspot in academia. For a long time, scholars at home and abroad have used different methods to measure China’s agricultural production efficiency from different aspects, but only based on traditional basic factors such as capital, labor and land, and ignored resources and the environment Impact on agricultural production. In fact, resource consumption and environmental degradation have become difficult problems facing agricultural development in various countries, and are an important issue that hinders the sustainable and healthy development of economy and society. China's agricultural economic growth has achieved such great achievements. On the one hand, it has relied on the gift of nature to obtain rapid development. On the other hand, China's agricultural economic growth is based on the cost of natural resource consumption and environmental pollution. Especially with the increasing use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides and agricultural films, it has brought serious agricultural non-point source pollution problems. At the same time, the form of China's carbon emissions is not optimistic. Data show that agricultural carbon emissions account for about 17% of the total greenhouse gas emissions in the country, and the form will be more severe in the future. There is no doubt that China's agricultural economic development model urgently needs transformation and development, and cannot be based on the cost of resource consumption and environmental pollution. In order to achieve sustainable agricultural development, Chinese agriculture must take into account the coordinated and coordinated development of economic growth, resource conservation, and environmental protection. By combing the literature on agricultural production efficiency, it is found that many scholars have focused their perspectives only on a specific industry, lacking a policy path to guide the entire industry and regional industry to improve ecological efficiency. This article will comprehensively sort out relevant theories and redefine "agricultural green productivity" and "green total factor productivity" in order to lay the foundation for future related research.

In the existing research, there is little discussion about the additional features of mobile banking products or the impact of complex product information on users. The additional features of these products not only bring many conveniences, but also some contradictions, such as interfering with the convenience of the main function of the application, too many prompt tones or prompt messages, etc. Therefore, by studying a group of relative concepts, namely gratitude and tiredness, this paper investigates the impact of additional features of products on mobile banking, and studies the utilitarian value, hedonic value and fit of mobile banking, so as to obtain the attitude and behavior of customers. In November 2020, our study took the customers of a large Chinese banks as the research object, sent out online questionnaires, and collected 430 valid questionnaires. Using partial least squares structural equation modeling, PLSSEM method, the following conclusions were drawn: Overall, users are interested in the additional features of the product. Additional features can lead to emotional judgment. When online banking users get more information from additional features of products, they can feel grateful. In addition, the more information the additional features provide, the less tired the users are. The contribution of the paper is that it uses the index of overall fit, comprehensively evaluates the relevant impact of functional fit and lifestyle fit in existing literature, which has theoretical and practical significance.

In this paper, a survey on the online teaching innovation willingness of Chinese language teachers during the "COVID-19" pandemic is conducted. A total of 104 full-time Chinese language teachers at home and abroad were taken as the research objects. This paper analyzed the effects of various factors on Chinese language teachers' willingness to innovate in online teaching, such as gender, education, school category, and teaching method, etc. The results demonstrated that there were no significant differences between the factors of gender and teaching method on their willingness, while there were significant differences between the factors of education and school category.

With the continuous rise of China's economic aggregate and the annual growth of national income, wealth management services of commercial banks have developed rapidly. By using annual data of 61 commercial banks in China from 2014 to 2018, this study employs the panel data model to analyze the influence of wealth management ability of commercial banks on business performance from the perspective of relational capital. The empirical results show that there are different effects of wealth management ability and relational capital on operational performance. First, issuing ability of wealth management has a negative impact on business performance, but it is not statistically significant. Its interaction with relational capital has a significant and positive effect on business performance. Second, risk control ability of wealth management has a significant and positive effect on business performance, whereas its interaction with relational capital has a significant and negative impact on business performance. Third, the richness of wealth management products has a significantly positive effect on business performance. And the interaction with relational capital also has a significantly positive effect on business performance. Finally, the normative ability of information disclosure has a significantly negative impact on business performance. However, its interaction with relational capital has a positive effect on business performance, but it is not statistically significant.
