It has experienced how difficult People with foreign language learning, it is to pronounce a new language different from the native language. The goal of various foreigners who want to learn Korean is to speak Korean as well as their native language to communicate smoothly. However, each native language's vocal habits also appear in Korean pronunciation, which prevents accurate information transmission. In this paper, the pronunciation of Chinese learners was compared with that of Korean. For comparison, the fundamental frequency and its variation of the speech signal were examined and the spectrogram was analyzed. The Formant frequencies known as the resonant frequency of the vocal tract were calculated. Based on these characteristics parameters, the classifier of the Supporting Vector Machine was found to classify the pronunciation of Koreans and the pronunciation of Chinese learners. In particular, the linguistic proposition was scientifically proved by examining the Korean pronunciation of /ㄹ/ that the Chinese people were not good at pronouncing.

Ever since China adopted a free market economy, it has been basking in unprecedented economic growth. It has now emerged as one of the most promising markets in the world for the near future. The purpose of this study was to investigate of Chinese and Korea college female students's cognitive body type and to suggest basic informations for high quality clothing merchandising for china export. The subjects in this study were 430 college female students, aged from 18 to 24 living in Beijing(215) and Seoul(215). The survey were taken from June to July, 1999. SAS(Statistical Analysis System) is used for frequency, percentage, average, standard deviation, χ²-test. The results of this study are as follows. The 90% of Chinese collge female students has under 4000 yuan for monthly income, and they consume less than 1000 yuan for clothing purchasing for one year. About 42% chinese students are interested in controlling of physical body shape. The Korean college female students has from 1,000,000 won to 10,000,000 won for monthly income, and the 84% of them consume less than 1,000,000 for clothing purchasing for one year. It represents of economical difference between China and Korea. Examination on the Korean and Chinese self-perception on obesity of the body as a whole showed that both groups perceived themselves as normal or slightly overweight. More Korean respondents regarded their weight as normal than the Chinese did. The Chinese female college students perceived themselves rather overweight, and held a lower satisfaction level about their physical construction. While the Korean female college students showed low satisfaction level about specific bodily parts, they held a normal level of satisfaction about their physical construction as a whole. It is noteworthy that more Chinese respondents generally held lower satisfaction impressions about their physical construction than their Korean counterparts. It is needed to different merchandising project for export clothing in China.

This study held physical measurement for male subjects in their 20s living in Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province in China, showing the biggest market in men's clothes. Their representative lower body types with average shapes and sizes were chosen so as to develop men's slacks patterns with better dimension fitness. The following are the results of the analysis: 1. Slacks patterns were made based on the mean measurement values of 5 people, who were closest to the representative body types, from the index*absolute group of 47 people. The dimensions of application for slacks pattern-making were 77cm(omphalion waist circumference), 91cm(hip circumference), and 103cm(slacks length). 2. For the comparison of high-fitness and more-room pattern dimensions, 5 styles of slacks were made: Korean, Chinese, British, Japanese, and industrial. In the dressing fitness tests, industrial patterns had excellent appearance and Japanese ones had the best function. 3. Based on the analysis results of slacks pattern comparison, the target slacks were experimentally made and received superior evaluation points to the compared slacks patterns in two times of evaluation for appearance and function. 4. The final slacks pattern in this research had the following dimensions: front waist circumference: W(1-2cm with room included)/4-1cm, back waist circumference: W/4+1cm, front hip circumference: H(9$\sim$10cm with room included)/4-1cm, back hip circumference: H/4+1cm, crotch length: H/4-1.5cm, hip length: crotch length-H/12, front crotch extension: H/16-1.5cm, back crotch extension: H/8+3cm, knee line: 33cm below crotch line, front tuck amount: 4cm, back dart amount: 2.5cm(center) and 1.5cm(side), and back dart length: 10cm (center) and 6cm(side).

본 연구는 미국에서 화교가 제일 많이 분포되어 있는 곳 중의 한 곳인 캘리포니아 주 화교 은행의 성장과 수익성의 경제적 실적을 한인 은행과 비교하여 그러한 실적의 차이가 나타나는 원인을 사회자본의 관점에서 재해석하여 화교사회자본의 변화를 추적하고자 한다. 미국에서 소수계민족은행은 소수계민족경제 번영의 중요한 결정요인으로 밝혀져 왔다. 그러나 역으로 소수계민족은행의 경영전략과 경영실적 역시 소수계민족경제가 가진 특성에 의해 다시 규정된다. 소수계은행은 시장적 은행전략을 취하는 미국의 주류은행과 달리 관계적 은행전략을 공통적으로 취하고 있다. 그러나 한인은행과 화교은행은 경영실적과 경영전략에서 미세한 차이를 보이고 있는데 역사적 차이와 동질성/비동질성의 차이 외에도 전자의 경우 사업대출의 비중이, 후자의 경우 부동산 대출의 비중이 높은 것 등의 차이가 있다. 본 연구는 관계적 은행전략을 넘어서는 양 소수계 민족은행의 경영실적과 경영전략의 차이가 각 민족은행의 시장기반인 소수계사회의 문화적 특성에 기인한 것임을 밝히며 이를 사회자본으로 개념화한다. 이러한 사회, 문화적 차이를 사회자본에 관한 연구와 연결함으로써 이러한 사회자본의 차이가 두 소수계은행의 경영행태를 다르게 하여 결과적으로 경영실적의 차이로 나타나게 하는 과정을 추적하여 사회자본 개념의 확대에 기여하고자 한다.

This pilot study examined programs for early childhood education and care in three Chinese cities. The samples for this study were one university-based kindergarten, one private kindergarten (rural area), and one public kindergarten (urban area). Six types of instruments were used to assess early childhood education and care services regarding quality matters. Most questions asked were open-ended; consequently, the interview answers by kindergarten directors or teachers (as well as observations made by the researcher) formed the basis for collecting the data. Quality components for each program were determined by a comparison method. The comparison allowed the researcher to understand the range of quality education and care available as well as the variability of existing kindergarten programs in China. The findings of the investigation revealed important information on; (a) demographic information (fees, class hours, total weeks of class, vacation, number of children and staff, class size, and teacher-child ratio) (b) teacher characteristics, (c) health practices, (d) safety practices, (e) work environment, (f) physical settings, (g) play materials, (h) parent involvement, (i) nutrition, (j) daily schedule. Implications within the Chinese context for quality practices and issues to further develop and strengthen early childhood education and care systems are discussed.

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) confronts industrial manufactures with economic, ecological, as well as social benefits and challenges, referring to the Triple Bottom Line of sustainability. So far, research has mainly investigated its dimensions in isolation or economic aspects have not been compared with ecological and social perspectives. Further, research misses studies that are devoted to the special characteristics and requirements of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs). This study aims to contribute to close this research gap, providing a research context that encompasses all three dimensions of sustainability. The results are based on data obtained from 329 SMEs, 222 in Germany and 107 in China, therefore allowing for a comparison of the concepts "Industrie 4.0" and "Made in China 2025" in the context of SMEs. In general, German SMEs expect a lower impact through "Industrie 4.0", perceiving the concept as more beneficial for larger enterprises. We further find that Chinese SMEs foremost see social benefits. Challenges whilst introducing "Industrie 4.0"by German SMEs as well as several frame conditions are perceived more relevant than for "Made in China 2025", as seen by Chinese SMEs. The paper closes with implications for research and practice based on these findings.

이 논문은 한자(漢字)의 다의성(多義性)과 품사(品詞)의 비결정성(非決定性)에 초점을 맞추어 "논어(論語)" 해독을 시도하였다. 먼저, 이 글은 한자가 인간과 세계에 대한 문제를 표현하는 사유의 언어(다른 말로 철학언어)로서 제 기능을 할 수 있는가? 는 물음에 대한 본격적인 논의를 전개하였다. 16세기 마테오 리치는 보편적인 '표의문자체(ideographic script)'의 가능성을 한자에서 발견하려고 노력함으로써 이 물음에 긍정적인 답변을 제시하였다. 반면, 헤겔과 하이데거 등은 한자는 첫째, 전치사와 관사가 없는 언어체계이며, 둘째, 이중의미, 반대의미를 표시하는 단어가 없으며, 셋째, 어형변화 없이 어순에 의해서만 의미를 표현, 전달하기 때문에 복잡한 인간의 사유와 엄밀한 논리를 표현하는 철학 언어로서 부적합하다고 주장한다. 그러나 카시러와 울만, 소쉬르, 그리고 데리다 등의 언어관을 경유하면서, 우리는 헤겔과는 다른 입장에서 한자의 사유언어로서의 기능을 발견할 가능성을 확인한다. 서양의 언어체계와 달리 한자는 언제나 개별적으로 존재하는 단어들의 의미 보다 문맥에서의 언어 기능이 보다 중요하다. 한자는 고유의 품사를 감추고, 다른 문자들과의 관계망 속에서 어떤 사건과 사물의 의미를 표현하면서 자신의 본색을 드러낸다. 한자는 이른바 '불가결정성(indecidability)'의 언어인 것이다. 이러한 한자의 다의성과 품사의 부재는 바로 '불가결정성'에 기인한다. 이렇게 본다면, 비록 전치사, 관사, 어형변화, 품사 등을 결여하는 있는 문자체계일지라도 '다의(多義)'의 특성을 지닌 한자는 인간의 복잡한 사유를 나름의 방식으로 표현하는 철학언어로서 충분한 기능을 할 수 있는 것이다. 이를 토대로 "논어(論語)"읽기의 다양성을 담보할 수 있을 것이다.

Objective: Segmented cardiac cine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the gold standard for cardiac ventricular volumetric assessment. In patients with difficulty in breath-holding or arrhythmia, this technique may generate images with inadequate quality for diagnosis. Real-time cardiac cine MRI has been developed to address this limitation. We aimed to assess the performance of retrospective electrocardiography-gated real-time cine MRI at 3T for left ventricular (LV) volume and mass measurement. Materials and Methods: Fifty-one patients were consecutively enrolled. A series of short-axis cine images covering the entire left ventricle using both segmented and real-time balanced steady-state free precession cardiac cine MRI were obtained. End-diastolic volume (EDV), end-systolic volume (ESV), stroke volume (SV), ejection fraction (EF), and LV mass were measured. The agreement and correlation of the parameters were assessed. Additionally, image quality was evaluated using European CMR Registry (Euro-CMR) score and structure visibility rating. Results: In patients without difficulty in breath-holding or arrhythmia, no significant difference was found in Euro-CMR score between the two techniques (0.3 ± 0.7 vs. 0.3 ± 0.5, p > 0.05). Good agreements and correlations were found between the techniques for measuring EDV, ESV, EF, SV, and LV mass. In patients with difficulty in breath-holding or arrhythmia, segmented cine MRI had a significant higher Euro-CMR score (2.3 ± 1.2 vs. 0.4 ± 0.5, p < 0.001). Conclusion: Real-time cine MRI at 3T allowed the assessment of LV volume with high accuracy and showed a significantly better image quality compared to that of segmented cine MRI in patients with difficulty in breath-holding and arrhythmia.
