Based on the analysis of the narrator's pangs, this paper argues that it is mainly the uncertainty of cultural identity that leads to the pangs of the narrator, and of the second generation Chinese Americans. This paper shows that the second generation can take advantage of their dual but conflicting cultural heritages to develop a renewed and specific cultural identity.展开更多

She uses various effective narrative strategies for the emergence of that theme. This paper, based on a close reading on the passage from Middlemarch, explores one of them——the incarnation of the narrator as a character. In Middlemarch, the narrator, as a character, both shows sympathy to the characters and asks for sympathy from the readers. To show his sympathy to the characters, he provides his comprehensive analysis of the characters and authorizes his characters to present their opinions. To ask for the sympathy, he directly addresses to the readers, uses free indirect speech in the narration, and expresses his own emotions. By the strategy of incarnation of the narrator as a character, Eliot clearly presents the readers her purpose of writing.展开更多

文摘Objective:This study aimed to explore the effect of standardized patient(SP)-narrative nursing in the experimental teaching of surgical nursing.Methods:A quasi-experimental study design was adopted.A total of 200 undergraduate nursing students were recruited from the Nursing College of Guilin Medical University in China from March 2023 to December 2024.The intervention group recruited students from the Class of 2022(n=100),and the control group recruited students from the Class of 2021(n=100).The intervention group adopted a teaching model combining standardized patients with narrative nursing based on traditional scenariobased simulation teaching,which was applied to the nursing of perioperative patients(4 class hours)and scenario-based case drills(4 class hours)in the experimental teaching of surgical nursing.The control group used traditional scenario-based simulation teaching.The Nurse Humanistic Care Quality Evaluation Scale,Clinical Thinking Ability Evaluation Index System Scale for Medical Students,and Nurse-Patient Communication Ability Evaluation Scale for Nursing Students were used to investigate and compare the teaching effects between the two groups of students.Results:The total scores of the intervention group on humanistic care(91.39±3.97),clinical thinking(79.64±6.33),and nurse-patient communication(157.22±7.95)abilities were significantly higher than those of the control group(82.29±3.62,65.11±7.24,and 147.05±7.84,respectively),with statistically significant differences(P<0.01).Conclusion:This study confirms that integrating the dual teaching model of standardized patients and narrative nursing in experimental teaching of surgical nursing has significantly optimized the theoretical and practical structure of teaching strategies.This innovative teaching method provides a promotable paradigm for nursing humanities education and is of positive significance for improving the effectiveness of cultivating the core literacy of nursing talents.
