The aspiration of ethics is one of the man's most fundamental demands when he lives in the world, which has been got mainly by way of the story among the people. Either from religion to fiction, or from films to TV plays, no matter how the form changes, the story gives an important way to learn through the experience of interaction and from the other's life experience. While the charm of the story produces the thirst for knowledge that derives from the anxiety for interaction, the different fates of characters become the best answer to the anxiety and the thirst. Therefore the amusement of films or TV plays is derivative, and is a psychological balance got after the satisfaction of this ethical aspiration. The humanist value of the story lies in itself but something additional.

Tablet biographies collected in Literary Selections such as inscriptions, epitaphs and resumes are different from prose ones. While the former is composed in parallel styles, upholding the beauty of rhetoric such as antithesis, diction, sound and allusion, and giving a brief summary of biographers’ merits and achievements, the latter describes their speeches and deeds strictly according to the facts. This difference can easily be seen by comparing the tablet biographies of Cai Yong, Ren Fang and Shen Yue collected in Literary Selections with the same authors’ prose biographies collected in History of the Later Han Dynasty and History of the South Qi Dynasty. And the understanding of the narrative mode of the parallel prose can help understand the selecting criteria of Literary Selections.

In the 20th century, for the research for the Tang poems, there has formed a common understanding. And a richer fruit has been gained in the field of the microstudy.

At the same time, the achievements in the fields of Tang culture, cultural exchange and Western regions, objectively, lay an important basis for the fullscale research for the latter. Therefore, it is imperative to transform the research mode for the “Tang poems and the culture of Western regions”.

Chinese is well known for its verb overlapping. And in the Chinese dialect, “VVX” verb overlapping is even more striking. Not only can it be used independently when “VV” and “X” match each other, but also, compared with other types of verb overlapping, “X” grammar meaning in the “VVX” type plays a meticulous role. We can take the quality of “X” as the clue to examine the distribution and feature of different “VVX” verb overlapping.

But, in some structures, those verbs that can be applied to the location of verb in the seven types of structures are also not applicable. Generally speaking, whether the verbs are applicable or not in the seven types of structures are restricted by meaning, syllable, color and structure.

While the function of the government determines the structure of the government, it depends on the requirement for the development of the economy and the society. The core of the reform of the government is functional reform. And the development of the market economy demands the functional transformation of the Chinese government. But the reform of the government in China cannot simply follow the governmental mode of the countries in which the market economy is well developed, and the present requirement of the Chinese development should be considered fully. Under the promotion of the market and the society, the reform of the Chinese government that centers on the transformation of the government function, is actually the re-construction of the government. It aims at the establishing of the government with the integration of responsibility, capacity and effects.

According to the dialectical relation of interest and power, the local government has an inner requirement for seeking and strengthening its interest and power, which exactly produces the fundamental impetus for the change in the administrative power of the local government. This fundamental impetus consists of the orientation of the change in the Central Government, the trend of the enlargement in the local government and the liberalization of regional markets. And the interaction among the three factors forms its inner mechanism. Under the affection of the mechanism, there appear different types of changes for the administrative power in the local government.

The organizational political behaviour is the activity in which the individual of the organization, by using nonpositional power, influences or tries to influence the structures of the interest and relation within the organization. This essay, based on the dualism of the organizational political behaviour, gives an analysis of the source of the organizational politics, and, from the start of humanism, probes into the humanist foundation of the organizational political behaviour. The author holds that the organizational political behaviour is not always harmful. On one hand, the administrator should take man as the core of the society, identifying the other’s cause and effect of the political behaviour and keeping enough sensitivity of the position; on the other hand, he should use the power properly and play an active part in the power so as to avoid the destructive influence of his political behaviour.

Since the World War II, prompted by the strategic interest, US has chosen Japan as the core ally in the Far East. After the cold war, from the requirement for the interest of the state, it strengthens the alliance with Japan. In regard to China, both US and Japan adopt the twoside policy for the distinction between politics and economy. But in detail, there are some differences. While US, being premised on keeping the dispute of the principle for China, goes further to admit China into the “stakeholders”, Japan, within the framestructure of the alliance between it and US, strengthens the policy for China. Even new Prime Minister Abe puts forward the “mutually beneficial strategy” about the relation between China and Japan. In view of the state’s interest of the peaceful development in China, it is necessary to strengthen the strategic dialogue among China, US and Japan, giving a impetus to the effective influence on Japan about US’s policy for contacting China.

The marital violence for women is so harmful that the women’s lifeguard is threatened. Since they lose the most fundamental right of life, the other rights can also not be safeguarded. The family is the key to the losing of the feminine rights, in which, the relation between feminine and masculine is originally equal, forming the balanced structure of the dual powers. From a specific viewpoint, the feminist social workers provide a professional cure for feminine victims so as to awaken the feminist consciousness of strengthening the women's powers and rights.
