    Research on the Homogeneity of Tianjin Folk Song "Kite Flying" and "Cut Indigo Flower"

    2020 International Conference on Social and Human Sciences (ICSHS2020) Research on the Homogeneity of Tianjin Folk Song "Kite Flying" and "Cut Indigo Flower" Demin Ye Tianjin Normal University Music and Movie, Tianjin, 300221, China Email: [email protected] Keywords: Same folk song; "fly a kite"; Cut Indigo Flower Abstract: "Kite Flying" is one of the more typical representative works in the same folk songs. Most of the works use the popular song [Cut Indigo Flower] song card that prevailed in the north in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasty, which is cut the relationship between indigo]. "Same ancestor" refers to the same family in general. Mr. Feng Guangyu first put forward the academic view of "song ancestor" in the book "Chinese Folk Songs" published in 1998. Earlier, Mr. Yang Yinliu's "Ancient Chinese Music History Draft" mentioned the "variable song" assertion. In the 1981 edition of the "Chinese Music" Supplement, the musicologist Mr. Xu Rongkun's article "On the Evolution and Development of Folk Songs" states that "In the process of chanting, folk songs are constantly evolving and developing because they are often sharpened by the masses. The same folk song often results in multiple similar forms ... ", all of which are based on the general conclusion of" variable song ". Mr. Feng Guangyu put forward the academic viewpoint of" same folk song ", and changed the same folk song. The body form can be summarized into the following six forms: 1. The words and songs are similar but the words are different; 2. The words are the same and the words are different; 3.

Islam Frontmatter More information AN INTRODUCTION TO MATHEMATICAL COSMOLOGY This book provides a concise introduction to the mathematical aspects of the origin, structure and evolution of the universe. The book begins with a brief overview of observational and theoretical cosmology, along with a short introduction to general relativity. It then goes on to discuss Friedmann models, the Hubble constant and deceleration parameter, singularities, the early universe, inflation, quantum cosmology and the distant future of the universe. This new edition contains a rigorous derivation of the Robertson–Walker metric. It also discusses the limits to the parameter space through various theoretical and observational constraints, and presents a new inflationary solution for a sixth degree potential. This book is suitable as a textbook for advanced undergradu- ates and beginning graduate students. It will also be of interest to cosmologists, astrophysicists, applied mathematicians and mathematical physicists. received his PhD and ScD from the University of Cambridge. In 1984 he became Professor of Mathematics at the University of Chittagong, Bangladesh, and is currently Director of the Research Centre for Mathematical and Physical Sciences, University of Chittagong. Professor Islam has held research positions in university departments and institutes throughout the world, and has published numerous papers on quantum field theory, general relativity and cosmology.

Received: 6 July 2017; Accepted: 4 August 2017; Published: 6 August 2017 Abstract: As a Mongolian native medicine and Ewenki folk medicinal plant, Gentianella acuta has been widely used for the treatment of diarrhea, hepatitis, arrhythmia, and coronary heart disease. In the course of investigating efficacy compounds to treat diarrhea using a mouse isolated intestine tissue model, we found 70% EtOH extract of G. acuta whole plants had an inhibitory effect on intestine contraction tension. Here, nineteen constituents, including five new compounds, named as gentiiridosides A (1), B (2), gentilignanoside A (3), (1R)-2,2,3-trimethyl-4- hydroxymethylcyclopent-3-ene-1-methyl-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (4), and (3Z)-3-hexene- 1,5-diol 1-O-α-L-arabinopyranosyl(1!6)-β-D-glucopyranoside (5) were obtained from it.

Based on the transitional zones of macro element change, we can outline the 9 geochemical tectonic framework of China, and draw the four horizontal, three vertical and one 10 shield, and basically correspond to the geophysical tectonic framework. Four horizontal is: the 11 variation line of Si-K-Na-Mg content in the Tianshan-Yinshan-Yanshan, K-Na content in the 12 Kunlun mountain –Qinling -Dabie mountain, Si-K-Na content in the Gangdise - 13 Nangqingtanggula, Al-K-Ca-Mg content in Nanling.
