One of the most underrated Christmas Books, The Chimes （1844）, proves to be an excellent example of a new fairy tale portraying the pervasion of two spheres： the realm of fantasy and the truth. The narrator exposes the correlation between the disturbing vision of the animated metropolis and the protagonist＇s hallucinatory fancy caused by his inner unrest and agitation, questioning the boundary between the dream and reality and the limits of perception. Despite the technical restraints of the seasonal miniature＇s construction, Dickens succeeded in capturing the hero＇s psychology and the spirit of the city through the medium of anthropomorphising the inanimate, employing the supernatural, and implementing powerful, semantically loaded images of London corresponding well with the protagonist＇s inner dilemmas. The narrative strategy balancing on the edge of dream and reality employed in the carol does not only expose the creative skills of the novelist, but also the potential of The Chimes as an embryonic novel展开更多

CHIME (chemical Th-U-total Pb isochron method) for dating radioactive minerals, is introduced briefly in this paper. The monazite. xenotime and zircon from the gneissic granitoids in the Pingtan-Dengshan belt, Fujian. yield CHIME ages of 92. 7 Ma. 94. 4 Ma. 107. 1 Ma and 108. 2 Ma. reconfirming the Yanshanian granitism in southeast coast area of China.展开更多

For 30 years, he has been driving mail trucks on snow-covered roads at an average elevation of 3500 meters. Though an ordinary worker, he has made extraordinary achievements. With great passion and a powerful sense of duty, he has taken it as his mission to ensure that the postal system serves the people, thus helping to create and safeguard better lives for the Tibetan people.展开更多
