    The Influences of Phenology on the Order of 24 Solar Terms in Ancient China XIN Jia-dai, CHEN Yi-wen, QU An-jing （Institute for Advanced Study in History of Science, Northwest University, Xi’an, China） Abstract The 24 solar terms is an important part of the traditional Chinese calendar system. However, when studying the existing historical literature which contains the 24 solar terms, we find that, as dynasty altered, its name and order changed. Scholars commenced discussing the reasons of these changes from the Eastern Han 東漢 dynasty (A.D. 25—220), but it has still not been solved. In this paper, by analyzing the viewpoints of ancient scholars on this topic, we try to find out the reasons why they didn’t break through. Based on these reasons, then we discriminate the editions of Yizhoushu·Shixunjie (逸周書·時訓解) and Huainanzi·Tianwenxun (淮南子·天文訓), the relations of Waking from hibernation (Qizhe 啓蟄) and Excited insects (Jingzhe 驚蟄), as well as tease out the evolution process of the names and orders of “Rainwater (Yushui 雨水) and Excited Insects”, “Grain rains (Guyu 榖雨) and Pure and bright (Qingming 清明)” recorded in the literature of the 24 solar terms. From the above we can come to the conclusion that the 24 solar terms has been changed four times in ancient China, and reveal that the order of solar terms is related to phenology, but it is not completely determined by the order of corresponding to phenology. Keywords the order of 24 solar terms, Waking from hibernation, Excited insects, phenology When studying the ancient Chinese calendars, we find that the names and orders of 24 solar terms recorded in the existing calendars were not uniform.

Therefore, this study mainly aimed to provide investors with new strategies in buying ETFs of the indices, which not only avoided the instability of individual stocks, but were also able to get a high profit within weeks. Famous theories like Gann theory and the Elliott wave theory suggest that as part of the nature, market regulations and economic activities of human beings shall conform to the laws of nature and the operation of the universe. They further refined only the rules related to specific timepoints and the time cycle rather than the traditional analysis of the complex economic and social factors, which is, to some extent, similar to what the Chinese traditional culture proposes: that every impact on and change in the human society is always attributable to changes in the nature. The study found that the turns of the stock indices trend were inevitable at Citation: Zhou, T.; Li, X.; Wang, P.

It introduces service members to the basic phrases and vocabulary needed for everyday military tasks such as meet & greet (establishing rapport), commands, and questioning. Content is tailored to support deploying units of military police, civil affairs, and engineers. In 6–8 hours of self-paced training, Rapport familiarizes learners with conversational phrases and cultural traditions, as well as the geography and ethnic groups of the region. Learners hear the target language as it is spoken by a native speaker through 75–85 commonly encountered exchanges. Learners test their knowledge using assessment questions; Army personnel record their progress using ALMS and ATTRS. • Rapport is available online at the DLIFLC Rapport website http://rapport.dliflc.edu • Rapport is also available at AKO, DKO, NKO, and Joint Language University • Standalone hard copies of Rapport training, in CD format, are available for order through the DLIFLC Language Materials Distribution System (LMDS) http://www.dliflc.edu/resources/lmds/ DLIFLC 2 DEFENSE LANGUAGE INSTITUTE FOREIGN LANGUAGE CENTER CULTURAL ORIENTATION | Chinese-Mandarin About Rapport .............................................................................................................

We study the gnomon shadow lengths for the 24 solar terms as recorded in the book. Special attention is paid to the so-called law of ‘cun qian li’, which says the shadow length of a gnomon of 8 chi (about 1.96 m) high will increase (or decrease) 1 cun (1/10 chi) for every 1000 li (roughly 400 km) the gnomon moves northward (or south- ward). From these data, one can derive the time and location of the observations. The re- sults, however, do not fit historical facts. We suggest that compilers of the Zhoubi Suanjing must have modified the original data according to the law of ‘cun qian li’. Through re- versing the situation, we recovered the original data, our analysis of which reveals the best possible observation time as 564 BC and the location of observation as 35.78 ◦ N latitude.

Origin and Customs of the Chinese New Year1 Haiwang Yuan, Professor from Western Kentucky University Guest Professor from CFL, Nankai University Author2 “What date is the Chinese New Year?” The Chinese ask themselves every year, but few can answer it off the top of their head. Believe it or not, they have to refer to the Chinese calendar to get the answer. The Chinese calendar is lunisolar, which means it shows elements of both the lunar and solar calendars. The Chinese use the Gregorian calendar to live their daily lives while using the Chinese lunar calendar to observe their traditional festivals and conduct their folk activities. Based on the moon’s revolution around the Earth, it is about 11 days shorter each year than the solar calendar.
