Studying the discourse mode of traditional Chinese medicine is an important way to promote Chinese culture to go global and enhance the influence of Chinese culture. The profile of colleges and universities is the official statement of the organizational identity of colleges and universities. It is an important medium for colleges and universities to convey and promote their positive image, spread discipline culture and affect the public, especially specific stakeholders. Using the Discourse-historical Approach method of Critical Discourse Analysis, this paper selects the School Profile and the Director’s Message in the official websites of the School of Chinese medicine of the University of Hong Kong, the School of Chinese medicine of the Chinese University of Hong Kong and the School of Chinese medicine of the Hong Kong Baptist University as cases to analyze the characteristics and strategies of the discourse mode adopted by the college in constructing its organizational identity and disseminating traditional Chinese medicine culture. It is found that the introductions use a variety of discourse means, such as diversified attitude evaluation, effective naming structure , predicate structure, and “Bi-literacy and Tri-lingualism” discourse mode, and construct a positive and rich image of the school: It has a long history of development and orderly inheritance; It has sound teaching courses and complete system; It has a wide range of influence and fruitful results in the dissemination of traditional Chinese medicine culture; It has made fruitful achievements in cultivating Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) talents with international vision, and a large number of elites have emerged.","PeriodicalId":408181,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Languages, Literature and Linguistics","volume":" 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120833321","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}

This study makes an inquiry into foreign language listening anxiety among L2 English majors in a Chinese university with its focus on students’ learning experience. It seeks to reveal the dilemmas encountered by L2 English majors in the foreign language listening process. It also explores how these anxiety factors influence L2 English majors. The Foreign Language Listening Anxiety Scale (FLLAS) from Kim and a semi-structured one-by-one interview are employed in the study. The sources of English majors’ English listening anxiety found in this study are: vocabulary recognition, grasping the main idea, and detailed information, the speed of the delivery, lack of background knowledge of the listening material, speakers’ accent, and high requirement of memory and attention. The study results also indicate that anxious listeners tend to engage in excessive self-evaluation, worry over potential failure, and concern over others’ opinions. The study’s findings also have some pedagogical implications for English listening courses for undergraduate students, especially English major students.","PeriodicalId":408181,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Languages, Literature and Linguistics","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121091798","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 expatriate American women writers constructed an impressive female community through artistic salons led by Natalie Clifford Barney and Gertrude Stein as well as cosmopolitan bookshops run by Sylvia Beach and Adrienne Monnier. When post-war despair and cultural bankruptcy prevailed, they found a new approach in a different world, far from their hometown, and thus promoting American-European cultural exchanges, diversifying modernist ecosphere. The influx of expatriate women also benefited gender equality and feminist writing. Salon coteries reflected their quest for emancipation under constraints and nurtured collective creativity. In the modernist hemisphere belonging to them, the expatriate women writers shared new modes of language, and found their own freedom to write, to voice, to live. The innovation of the paper is the detailed study of salon hostesses Barney’s memoir Adventures of the Mind and Stein’s life narrative The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas, with the analysis of public sphere theory and life-writing theory to highlight the memory of collaborative salon space—a created gender-equal sphere of women writers, and their self-discovery spirit in the legendary expatriation.","PeriodicalId":408181,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Languages, Literature and Linguistics","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122005737","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}

Its basic feature is that it attempts to critique the overextension of instrumental rationality in modernization and the resulting social problems such as human alienation and moral loss. Its humanist tendencies and reflections on the modernization movement have their own unique cultural value. As a kind of critical and constructive thinking, Ku Hongming’s cultural conservatism can participate in historical dialogue. In the new era, how should we view modernization and Chinese culture, how to maintain our national identity in the midst of the cultural storm of globalization, how to correctly treat Chinese traditional culture in the construction of socialist culture with Chinese characteristics, and how to promote the formation of cultural self-confidence, Ku Hongming’s cultural perspectives have somehow given us deep thought and inspiration to some extent. The Spirit of the Chinese People is one of Ku’s major works, and its contents are a direct reflection of Ku’s thinking. Reading and Studying on this book will help us to understand his true thoughts and appreciate his cultural confidence and independent personality.","PeriodicalId":408181,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Languages, Literature and Linguistics","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116953858","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}

One dominant power is the environmental force, which affects these people’s decisions and behaviors, either negatively or positively. Jen, as the main character, attempts to transcend her civilized society by wandering into the opposite world, the wilderness. Yet in both civilized and wild environments, Jen fails to gain her freedom. In the civilized world, she is constrained by her traditional gender role, according to which she has to submit herself to patriarchal elders. Leaving the civilized world for the wilderness, Jen wants to create a system of her own, according to which she has the power to dominate others. Despite her effort in maintaining the system, she is not successful in gaining her freedom, because she has to deal with her irrationality of attaining excessive power. A relinquishment of her delusion of power eventually leads Jen to realize how to have a self-sufficient sphere of her own. Through the symbolic act of jumping from the physical Wudang Mountain to the spiritual world of eternity, Jen connects herself to the spiritual universe; accordingly, she gains her freedom with sacredness.","PeriodicalId":408181,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Languages, Literature and Linguistics","volume":"93 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123132647","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}
