The results showed that the 40-mesh translucent insect-proof net had a positive effect on the spring shoot growth of Shatangju in the spring from January to April. In the meantime,according to the change of the temperature and humidity inside and outside the insect-proof net and the change of quantity of Aleyrodidae,Tetranychidae and Phyllocnisidae,it was found that the role of insect-proof net in enhancing the spring shoot growth of Shatangju was possibly achieved by the regulation of citrus pests and the temperature and humidity inside the net.展开更多

The obtained method has low-complexity property and converges globally. Furthermore, this method has also been extended to solve the sparse signal reconstruction in compressive sensing. Numerical experiments illustrate the efficiency of the given method and show that such non-monotone method is suitable for some large scale problems.展开更多

Compared with the grammar mistakes, the pragmalinguistic failures and sociopragmatic failures are subtle and have received less attention from Chinese English learners. Misunderstanding caused by cross-cultural pragmatic differences is the source of cross-cultural communication breakdown and therefore much more attention should be paid to our communication. The article concerns the failures occurred in cross-cultural communication to show the importance of cross-cultural awareness in the successful communication.展开更多
