Translating Linguistic Metaphors in Documentary Subtitles: A Cross-Cultural Reconstruction Perspective
type: item
description: This paper examines the challenge of translating Chinese metaphors into English subtitles from a cross-cultural reconstruction perspective. Drawing on Eugene Nida’s functional equivalence theory and Peter Newmark’s metaphor translation strategies, it analyzes a Chinese documentary and its English subtitles as a case study. Under the constraints of audiovisual translation, the goal is to achieve an equivalent effect on the target audience. The findings indicate that effective subtitle translation of metaphors requires creative adaptation. Culturally shared metaphors can often be translated literally, while culture-specific or conceptually dense metaphors demand adaptation or brief explanation to preserve their meaning and impact. The study illustrates how theoretical principles of dynamic equivalence and metaphor translation are applied in practice, ensuring that translated subtitles remain faithful in spirit to the original yet accessible to international viewers despite spatio-temporal constraints.

Research on the Construction of a Moral, Intellectual, Physical, Aesthetic, and Labor Education System in Universities–A Case Study of Qingdao Binhai University
type: item
description: The Way of the Great Learning lies in manifesting clear virtue, in loving the people, and in attaining the highest good. President Xi has emphasized in the reports to the 19th and 20th National Congresses of the Communist Party of China the priority of developing education and implementing the fundamental task of cultivating virtue and talents. At the National Education Conference, President Xi pointed out that higher education must adhere to the Party’s strong leadership, fully implement the Party’s educational policy, uphold Marxism as the guiding principle, and follow the path of socialist education with Chinese characteristics, so as to cultivate socialist builders and successors who are well-developed in morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics, and labor. This provides the correct direction for universities in the new era to cultivate talents. In accordance with the requirements of the Party and the state and following the Party’s educational guidelines, universities should strive to build a comprehensive education system integrating morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics, and labor, in order to train the talents needed for the new era. Taking Qingdao Binhai University as an example, this paper examines the historical evolution of its education system, discusses the significance, methods, content, and measures of integrating moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic, and labor education, and puts forward suggestions for the development of a “Five Educations, Five Transformations” talent cultivation model. The aim is to promote the high-quality development of Binhai University and cultivate talents required by regional economic development.

Integrating the Production-oriented Approach into Blended College English Viewing, Listening and Speaking Courses
type: item
description: The growing emphasis on educational informatization and communicative competence highlights the need to reform college English viewing, listening and speaking courses. Traditional models often overemphasize input while neglecting output, limiting students’ engagement and intercultural competence. This study adopts the Production-oriented Approach (POA) as its theoretical framework and integrates it with the Xuexitong digital learning platform to design a blended instructional model. The model applies three core POA phases—motivating, enabling, and assessing—within a formative evaluation system. A unit from New Horizon College English Viewing, Listening and Speaking 1 (4th edition) is used as a case for implementation. The blended POA-based approach enhanced students’ learning engagement, autonomous study habits, language output, and collaborative skills. The study demonstrates the effectiveness of combining POA with digital platforms in English instruction and offers practical insights for future curriculum design and research on POA-based language instruction.

A Study of the Event-Based Idealized Cognitive Model of Japanese Passives
type: item
description: This study investigates Japanese passive sentences within the theoretical framework of the Event-based Idealized Cognitive Model (EICM). The analysis demonstrates that the Japanese passive prototype is the direct affected passive, characterized by an obligatory agent (ni-phrase) and a processual event structure (“Patient affected + Agent performs action”), diverging from the stative focus of English/Chinese passives. The extension of Japanese passives—particularly indirect passives—relies on metaphorical expansion of the “Affectedness → Influence” gestalt, enabling subjects to include indirect patients and predicates to incorporate intransitive verbs. Unlike stative-oriented English/Chinese passives, Japanese indirect passives emphasize processual events, requiring additional clauses to express resultant states. Neutral passives, influenced by Western languages, are excluded as non-native constructions. The findings highlight that Japanese passives align with Croft’s causative event view rather than the stative view, underscoring a fundamental cross-linguistic divergence in passive conceptualization.

A Study on the Institutional Compatibility of Education Liberalization in Free Trade Ports: An Analysis of the Governance Effectiveness of the “Large Sharing + Small College” Model in Lingshui, Hainan
type: item
description: Against the backdrop of profound adjustments in the global education governance landscape and the accelerated advancement of China's free trade port construction, institutional innovation in education openness has become a core issue for regional development. The “large-scale sharing + small-scale institutions” model explored by the Hainan Lingshui International Education Innovation Pilot Zone breaks down administrative barriers and resource segmentation in cross-border education, establishing an education governance system with free trade port characteristics. This paper, based on the institutional adaptability theoretical framework, systematically analyzes the internal logic of this model in terms of the flow of educational elements, the restructuring of governance structures, and the realization of functions, revealing its governance effectiveness and practical value in the education opening-up of free trade ports. The study finds that the “large-scale sharing + small colleges” model achieves dynamic adaptability with the free trade port's “4+12” industrial system through institutional flexibility design. Its governance effectiveness manifests in three dimensions: improved resource allocation efficiency, deepened cross-border education collaboration, and optimized precision in talent supply. This provides theoretical references and practical pathways for institutional innovation in education openness within China's free trade ports.

Work-family Conflict and Job Burnout among Preschool Teachers: The roles of self-efficacy and resilience
type: item
description: The current study investigated the relationship between work-family conflict and job burnout in preschool teachers, with a focus on self-efficacy as a potential mediator and resilience as a moderator. We enlisted 42,412 participants (41,574 females; Mean age = 31.43 years, SD = 7.54 years), all of whom were preschool teachers completing self-reported scales. The findings revealed that increased work-family conflict was associated with higher levels of job burnout through reduced self-efficacy, particularly in individuals with lower resilience. These results highlight the importance of fostering harmonious work-family relationships, as well as enhancing self-efficacy and resilience, to improve job performance among preschool teachers. This has significant implications for early childhood education, as teachers with higher job performance and lower burnout are more likely to provide high-quality education, nurturing environments, and positive interactions, which are crucial for the developmental outcomes of young children.

Research on How the Youth Culture Affect Student’s Academic Achievement in the Rural Area of Malaysia
type: item
description: This study investigates the influence of youth culture on academic achievement among students in rural Malaysia, utilizing Conflict Theory to examine three key dimensions: marriage values, employment aspirations, and academic goals. A questionnaire survey of 130 students from the University of Malaya reveals significant associations between academic performance (measured by CGPA) and factors such as marital status, anticipated salary, attitudes toward studying abroad, and criteria for selecting educational institutions. The findings highlight that rural youth encounter distinct challenges—including adherence to traditional marriage norms, limited employment prospects, and disparities in educational resources—that collectively impede academic success. To address these inequities, the study recommends policy interventions such as community-based educational support programs, localized vocational training initiatives, and improved access to educational resources. Although the study is constrained by its sample size, it emphasizes the importance of culturally sensitive strategies in advancing educational equity in rural Malaysia.

‌Implementation Strategies for Intelligent Sports Learning Environments
type: item
description: The academic circle has a general consensus on the composition of space under information technology. The network virtual space based on information technology has also been added. The increase of the space in the learning process will inevitably bring about the change of teaching and learning forms and the reconstruction of models. In terms of functional support, it is multidimensional. It is not only a physical space for free practice, but also a social space for learning-related interactive activities to pursue self-liberation. Naturally, it is also a psychological space [1]where the inner spirit can develop. Learning space in education is no longer just to meet the needs of knowledge transfer, nor exists only as a place for learning activities, but has changed from the demand and supply of things to the demand for human development, from the focus on the result to the focus on the process, enhancing the correlation between various elements, and becoming a learning space integrating the process and the result. The full understanding and reasonable setting of the learning space play an important role in the implementation of intelligent education, especially in the development of intelligent learning.

Enhancing EFL Learner’s Achievement through a SPOC-based Blended Teaching Model
type: item
description: This study investigates the effectiveness of a SPOC-based blended teaching model on the English proficiency of 193 Chinese non-English major freshmen. Through a 16-week quasi-experimental design, participants were divided into an experimental group taught via a SPOC-blended approach and a control group receiving traditional instruction. Post-intervention assessments measured overall achievement and subskills including vocabulary, reading, translation, and writing. Results indicate that the SPOC model significantly improved students’ overall English performance and writing skills, but showed no statistically significant effects on vocabulary, reading, or translation after Bonferroni correction. The findings suggest that while SPOC-enhanced blended learning promotes general language achievement and output-based competencies like writing, its efficacy may depend on instructional focus and the nature of the target skill. This study provides empirical support for the integrative use of SPOC in EFL contexts and highlights the need for skill-specific instructional design in blended learning environments.

Research on the External Communication Paths of Hainan's Local Culture
type: item
description: Rooted in the tropical island ecology and diverse historical accumulation, Hainan's local culture encompasses a rich array of forms such as folk customs, historical relics, and intangible cultural heritage. Under the construction of the Free Trade Port and the "Belt and Road" Initiative, its external communication is supported by both the uniqueness of resources and external opportunities. However, there are still problems such as fragmented content, traditional channels, and insufficient cross-cultural adaptation. This paper explores the external communication paths of Hainan's local culture by combining cultural communication theories. By refining core cultural symbols, developing hierarchical content, integrating official, folk, and offline multi-dimensional platforms, implementing targeted communication for the Southeast Asian Chinese community as well as the Asia-Pacific and European and American markets, and at the same time strengthening policy support and talent cultivation, it provides a practical direction for Hainan's local culture to break through communication bottlenecks and enhance its international influence, thereby contributing to the construction of the cultural soft power of the Free Trade Port and the implementation of the national cultural going-out strategy.

Comparative Distribution of Interpersonal Meaning in Official and Fansub Chinese Subtitles: A Case Study of Zootopia
type: item
description: This paper provides a quantitative assessment of interpersonal meaning in both official and fansub Chinese subtitles for the animated film Zootopia. Using Systemic Functional Linguistics on a parallel corpus of six subtitle versions, we measure the density of key interpersonal resources. Paired tests and mixed-effects models reveal a clear stylistic divergence: fansubs contain higher densities of discourse particles (Hedges’g = 0.41), yielding a more oral, affectively engaged tone in humor and conflict scenes; official subtitles exhibit a substantially higher density of rhythm markers (Hedges’g = -0.74), emphasizing formal consistency and syntactic clarity. Modality markers show no significant difference. We argue these patterns reflect distinct production ecologies—professional standardization versus community-driven adaptation—and challenge single, universal notions of subtitle quality. The findings support a scene-sensitive style prototype and present a reproducible, quantitative method for analyzing interpersonal style in audiovisual translation.

A Study of Wang Zuoliang’s Style of Verse Translation: A Text-typology Approach to His Chinese Version of My Heart’s in the Highlands
type: item
description: This study examines Wang Zuoliang’s style of verse translation through Peter Newmark’s text typology theory, with a specific focus on his Chinese version of Robert Burns’ My Heart’s in the Highlands in comparison with that of Yuan Kejia. As the original text belongs to the expressive type, Wang’s style is marked by musicality and readability, linguistic conciseness and refinement, poetic sensibility and cultural images. While he primarily adopts communicative translation to enhance reader engagement and emotional resonance, he also incorporates semantic translation to preserve the original formal and cultural elements. His translation maintains the same length as the source text and employs colloquial expressions and reduplicated words to achieve musicality and auditory beauty. The comparative analysis reveals that Wang’s approach balance fidelity to the source text with readability and poetic elegance in the target language, offering valuable insights for poetry translation practice and theory.

A Study on Countermeasures to the Problem of Lonely Deaths According to the Increase of Single-person Households
type: item
description: The issue of lonely deaths has become a significant challenge in today’s society. It refers to dying alone without assistance from others on account of social isolation, and it is one of the serious problems that elderly people are facing, especially in rapidly aging societies. Along with the acceleration of population aging in today’s world, the problem is no longer regarded as an individual issue but rather as a societal one. The core causes of this phenomenon include the absence of a social safety net, isolated living environments, and weakened family ties. According to the United Nations, Japan currently has the highest proportion of elderly people in the world. Police data show that in the first half of 2024, a total of 37,227 people were found dead alone at home in Japan, with more than 70% of them aged 65 and older. About 40% of these lonely deaths were discovered within a day, but approximately 3,939 bodies were found more than a month after death. Among these cases, the largest group was those aged 85 and older (7,498 people), followed by those aged 75–79 (5,920 people). The number of lonely deaths among people aged 70–74 was recorded as 5,635. In 2024, the National Institute of Population and Social Security Research of Japan projected that by 2050, the number of elderly people (aged 65 and older) living alone will reach 10.8 million. In the same year, the total number of single-person households is expected to reach 23.3 million, suggesting that society must prepare for various problems stemming from the rise in single living. Although the Japanese government has long sought to respond to population aging, it is becoming increasingly difficult to manage these changes at the national level. Similar demographic challenges are also being faced by China and South Korea as well. In 2022, China’s population declined for the first time after 1961, while South Korea has repeatedly recorded the world’s lowest birth rate. The problems of low birthrates and populati…

Exploration on the Construction of Comprehensive English Courses Empowered by Artificial Intelligence
type: item
description: The cultivation of foreign language talent currently faces a paradoxical situation: a scarcity of highly skilled professionals coexists with an oversupply of individuals with limited proficiency. In light of external skepticism regarding the value of foreign language education, this paper explores pathways for the development of English majors—particularly translation specialists—in the age of artificial intelligence (AI). Comprehensive English, a core course for translation majors, aims to develop students’ five core language skills: listening, speaking, reading, writing, and translation, thereby laying a solid foundation for advanced professional study. This teaching reform experiment considers how to align classroom instruction with national development strategies, facilitating a harmonious integration of smart and traditional teaching. The instructional focus extends beyond vocabulary and grammar to incorporate cultural underpinnings, methodological awareness, conceptual depth, and affective dimensions—prioritizing national identity within a global vision to build a knowledgeable and empathetic learning environment.

Research on the Dynamic Update and Intelligent Governance Mechanism of Legal Corpus
type: item
description: With the widespread application of artificial intelligence and big data technology, legal corpus plays an increasingly important role in legal intelligent systems, rule of law research, and judicial informatization. As a fundamental resource for processing legal texts, the quality and timeliness of legal corpus directly affect the training effectiveness of artificial intelligence models and the level of intelligence in legal services. However, the rapid update speed of legal texts, the complex content structure, and the variability of legal definitions have led to significant challenges in the updating and governance of existing legal corpus. How to achieve dynamic updates and intelligent governance of legal corpus has become an urgent issue that needs to be addressed. This paper conducts a systematic study on the dynamic updating and intelligent governance mechanisms of legal corpus, proposing a multi-dimensional, multi-level, and scalable updating strategy for legal corpus, which combines privacy computing and blockchain technology to construct an intelligent governance framework that supports compliance across multiple legal domains and monitors the use of legal text data. The research results indicate that this mechanism can effectively enhance the timeliness and controllability of legal corpus, providing a safer and smarter legal text data system for legal AI applications.
