This paper analyses 200 speakers’ 79 corpus with a total duration of 77 hours and 58 minutes in four categories of news monologues, interviews, conversations, and academic lectures in the UK from 2020 to February, 2021, and calculates the speech rate of contemporary British English. It is found that the average speaking speed of British English has reached 198 words per minute (17% faster by 28 words) and 265 syllables per minute (10% faster by 25 syllables). Accordingly, the standard speech rate of EFL teaching should be improved.","PeriodicalId":272668,"journal":{"name":"Academic Journal of Humanities & Social Sciences","volume":"33 1-2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116734816","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The evolution process can be confirmed by the various images of the pigeon-ended sticks unearthed from the tombs. The images of the pigeon-ended sticks unearthed in the Pre-Qin period are diverse and the decorations are complex in China, and all kinds of decorations are mostly related to the primitive worship, which indicate that the pigeon images should be more associated with tribes and primitive religions in the Pre-Qin period. However, during the Han Dynasty, the pigeon-ended sticks unearthed in China are simple in appearance, without too many complex decorations, which shows that the symbolic meaning of the pigeon images tend to be single in the Han Dynasty. The pigeon becomes symbolic of identity of the elderly, and respect for the elderly. Based on the pigeon-ended sticks unearthed the tombs in China from the Pre-Qin to Han Dynasty, this paper discusses the different symbolic meanings of pigeon images, and summarizes the evolution of pigeon meaning.","PeriodicalId":272668,"journal":{"name":"Academic Journal of Humanities & Social Sciences","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131865558","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, in essence, the disclosure does not completely override the duty of confidentiality, instead it further burdens the bank and third parties to reasonably exercise the disclosure. Also, the Tournier case has been reaffirmed in some contemporary legal documents. Therefore, though the duty of confidentiality has been eroded due to the changing society, it is still a significant duty that the bank should obey.","PeriodicalId":272668,"journal":{"name":"Academic Journal of Humanities & Social Sciences","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134162128","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, the advent of artificial intelligence synthetic anchors has caused a huge impact on the host and announcer industry. Many practitioners are full of doubts about whether they will be replaced by artificial intelligence anchors. AI anchors can not only broadcast news without error, spread information across languages but also work uninterrupted 24 hours a day, 365 days a day, which greatly improves work efficiency. In 2019, foreign media such as The Times, Newsweek, and Los Angeles Times reported that news anchors in China may face some new competition because AI anchors can imitate human facial expressions and behaviors when broadcasting news. This means that from the screen, the simulation level of the artificial intelligence anchor is almost the same as that of a real person. This undoubtedly puts those live-action anchors facing the risk of being eliminated, and it puts forward new requirements for the teaching and training of the art of broadcasting and hosting. Therefore, in the context of AI anchors, it is urgent to explore how to train competitive announcers and hosts. This paper studies the development of the talent training model for broadcasting and hosting under the background of artificial intelligence. The results will help to cultivate industry-competitive broadcasting and hosting talents and greatly improve the professional ability of students majoring in broadcasting and hosting arts.","PeriodicalId":272668,"journal":{"name":"Academic Journal of Humanities & Social Sciences","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125552222","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results show that the logistics industry's total factor productivity under the carbon intensity constraint has an average annual growth rate of 1.9%, which is higher than that without considering the carbon constraint; the logistics industry productivity index under the carbon intensity constraint is consistent with the carbon intensity target, and the logistics industry's total factor productivity has improved , The carbon intensity decreases; the improvement of logistics productivity mainly depends on the progress and innovation of logistics technology; under the constraint of carbon intensity, there is convergence in the logistics productivity of the eastern region, the difference in the central region is expanding, and the western region is shrinking.","PeriodicalId":272668,"journal":{"name":"Academic Journal of Humanities & Social Sciences","volume":"17 6","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132497328","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a common tool for residents and tourists to travel daily, buses are widely used in cities and can subtly display and convey the spiritual connotation of the city.
