This paper studies the situations in which students are likely to use codeswitching and analyzes it from the perspective of the mental world in Verscheren's Adaptation Theory. It shows that inadequate mastery of English language, cultural differences and the improper adjustment to context may lead to students' using of codeswitching. It also shows that the use of code-switching in students' talk adapts to students' cognitive elements and emotive elements as well.展开更多

Researchers stud?ied it from different angles and have made a lot of findings.However, the researchers in China begin their studies on this issue un?til the last decade. Thus,the relevent empirical studies were less and most of them only use students from the classrooms in the sec?ondary schools or the undergraduates in the universities as the subjects.They paid little attention to the EFL classrooms in the vo?cational colleges. Vocational college students are poor in English foundation. English teachers can not finish their teaching mission in English classroom, so the use of code-switching becomes a very common phenomenon in EFL class of vocational college. In order to make teaching and learning promote and enhance each other, according to previous research findings, this paper do a fur?ther study about the teachers' use of code switching in the vocational college English intensive reading classes in China.展开更多

It is important to explore the reasons underlying the livelihood strategy choices of farmers from the perspective of social capital under China’s rural revitalization strategy. In this study, the Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture, a povertystricken mountainous area in southwestern China, was selected as the case study area, and multivariable linear regression models were constructed to analyze the influence of social capital on livelihood strategies.The results are as follows:(1) Individual social capital had a positive effect on non-agricultural livelihood strategies. On average, with a one-unit increase in individual social capital, the ratio of farmers’ nonagricultural income to total productive income(Income_Rto) increased by 0.002% and 0.062%,respectively. Collective social capital, with the Peasant Economic Cooperation Organization(PECO) as the carrier, had a negative effect on the non-agricultural livelihood strategies of farmers;on average, with a oneunit increase in PECO, Income_Rto decreased by approximately 0.053%. However, this effect was only significant in the river valley area.(2) The income differences among the different livelihood strategy types were explained by the livelihood strategy choices of farmers. As non-agricultural work can bring more benefits, the labor force exhibited one-way migration from villages to cities, resulting in a lack of the subject of rural revitalization. It is necessary to implement effective measures to highlight the role of PECO in increasing agricultural income for farmers. Finally,based on the above conclusions,policy recommendations with respect to livelihood transformation of farmers and rural sustainable development are discussed.展开更多
