The long-term monitoring of W-11-4A platform achieved. Structural responses (strain and acceleration) at selected locations, as well as associated environmental parameters, have been obtained. The emphasis of the paper is placed on the system design, and the instrumentation and operation methodology employed in the monitoring of the structural responses. The performance of the system and the characteristic results obtained during its 13-month operation are also summarized.展开更多

Based on two sets of studies on individual differences in mental representation construction (e.g., Gernsbacher, et al. 1990, 1991, 2001; Oakhill, et al. 1988, 1996, 2003), the present study investigates whether high-...Based on two sets of studies on individual differences in mental representation construction (e.g., Gernsbacher, et al. 1990, 1991, 2001; Oakhill, et al. 1988, 1996, 2003), the present study investigates whether high-level/proficiency Chinese English majors are better at mental representation construction than those with low proficiency by comparing their performances in summary writing in Chinese after reading a passage in English. Statistical analyses show that such differences do exist in that the sophom...展开更多
