Again not best [The tough task as Black against Russian GM Papin. The two ungainly 18...Nd8 seems the monst tenacious; 19.Nb5 Kazakh GMs agreed a quick draw, leaving my board to Bd7 20.Nxa7 and although Black is a pawn down and decide the winner. 1.c4 Nf6 2.Nc3 c5 3.g3 d5 4.cxd5 his pieces are strangely placed, he's at least not losing Nxd5 5.Bg2 Nc7 6.Qa4+!? An unusual sideline, well- any more material immediately] 19.Bxb7 Rab8 20.Bd5 prepared by Papin 6...Qd7 7.Nf3 Nc6 [7...Qxa4 8.Nxa4 White now threatens Rc7, winning a piece 20...Rfc8 Ne6 9.b3 and White will have annoying pressure in the 21.Re4 Kf7 22.Re1 Setting up the following tactic ending] 8.0–0 e5 9.a3 f6 (otherwise White plays b4 due 22...f5 losing material, but there's nothing better to the e5 weakness) 10.e3 After this move, it becomes 23.Bxe6+! Bxe6 24.Rxe6 Kxe6 25.Bc5+ Kd7 26.Rxe7+ clear that White is trying to play a quick d4 advance to Kd8 27.Re5 Rxb2 28.Rxf5 Kd7 29.Bd4 Ke6 30.Ra5 and I break open the position; if he manages to play this resigned; a very strong showing from Papin, who thus successfully Black will be in trouble, as his pieces are took the title 1–0 much less actively placed and difficult to let out 10...Be7 11.Rd1 Ne6 12.Qc4 Possible the critical moment in the game; if Black can castle without problem, he will likely be OK 12...0–0 [12...Rb8! may be tougher to deal with; 13.d4 b5 14.Qa2 (14.Nxb5 Na5) 14...cxd4 15.exd4 exd4 and White doesn't have an outright winner] 13.d4! As I calculated the consequences of 12...O-O, I seriously underestimated the power of this move; the two pins against the Queen and King make Black's position very awkward and the c8 Bishop is a serious liability 13...cxd4 14.exd4 exd4 15.Nxd4! This sacrifice is only temporary and the White pieces spring to life 15...Ncxd4 16.Be3 Qc7? Not the best decision, as White now gets a clearly better endgame [16...Bc5 is likely the best of a bad lot; 17.b4 Bb6 18.Nd5 Kh8 and White should play the seemingly slow 19.a4! when Black's pieces are badly placed and Position after 14...exd4 it's difficult to untangle and give back the piece under good circumstances] 17.Rxd4 Qxc4 BHCC and CJCC venue: 21a Electra Ave., Ashwood, Vic 3147 Page 4 Our Sponsors Bits & Pieces.

    As Cultural Performance in Chinese: Cases of Requesting and Declining

    “Face” as Cultural Performance in Chinese: Cases of Requesting and Declining DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By HAO-HSIANG LIAO, M.A. Graduate Program in East Asian Languages and Literatures The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Professor Galal Walker, Advisor Professor Mari Noda Professor Charles Quinn Copyright by Hao-hsiang Liao 2012 Abstract Face, a self-image that each member of a society seems to care about, is a cultural performance. Performance refers to situated behaviors that define an individual’s successful functioning in a society. Face can be as explicit as defending yourself in a debate or as implicit as denying a request from a friend. This dissertation investigates how “face” is presented, maintained, negotiated, and how it functions in the cases of requesting and declining in Chinese culture. To be more specific, this dissertation explores “face” in four situations – making a request of your teacher, making a request of a friend, denying a request from your teacher, and denying a request from a friend – and depicts the features of these four situations from both the native speakers’ and the Chinese learners’ perspectives. Based on the results of the research, I argue “face” as a theme in requesting and declining as it runs through the considerations and strategies people resort to in these situations. The considerations are face-based and they correspond to the face-saving themes. In Chinese, more specifically, it is lian on mianzi because the speaker, based on his social status, power, and ability, aims to maintain the semblance of integrity.

    1 the Acquisition of Sociolinguistic Variation: A

    THE ACQUISITION OF SOCIOLINGUISTIC VARIATION: A LONGITUDINAL STUDY OF SECOND LANGUAGE LEARNERS OF CHINESE OVER A SHORT-TERM STUDY ABROAD SOJOURN By YANMIN BAO A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2017 1 © 2017 Yanmin Bao 2 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First and foremost, I want to express my sincerest gratitude to my committee chair, Dr. Blondeau, who introduced me to the field of sociolinguistics and who expertly guided me through my graduate education. Her generous guidance, professionalism, support and patience enabled me to work on a topic that was of great interest to me. The joy and enthusiasm she has for sociolinguistic variation was really contagious and motivated me to develop my research interest from an abstract idea to a practical study. I am especially thankful for her valuable suggestions to my research methodology and variationist analysis of the variable DE, helped me improve these sections a lot. I am also heartily grateful to my committee members: Dr. Golombek, Dr. Lord, and Dr. Fang. Dr. Golombek guided me to compare different models applied to the acquisition of the target language, which was very important for the development of the theoretical framework. To Dr. Lord, I would like to express my gratitude for her interest in my topic of research, for providing me with kind suggestions and the data collection tool (i.e., Language Contact Profile) that I could not possibly have discovered. Also, I want to thank Dr. Fang for being willing to come on board as a committee member and gave me useful advice.
