The paper is an exploratory study on the travel intentions of mainland Chinese residents to Japan after Diaoyu Island political crisis. Due to the superior location and excellent service, Japan has become one of the most popular outbound tourism destinations for Mainland Chinese tourists in the past 10 years. However, since the complicated and subtle relations between China and Japan, the tourism industry of Japan is evidently sensitive and vulnerable to various crisis. Under such circumstances, it is necessary to investigate the decision tree model research as well as compare domestic and overseas researches at the very beginning of the study. On the basis of literature review and in-depth interview with tourism operators via a three rounds of pre-test and revision, a self-completion questionnaire was developed and used to measure domestic residents' attitude and travel intentions after the Diaoyu Island political crisis. Data was collected through surveys in cities of different sizes from both developed and undeveloped areas in eastern and western China, such as Shanghai and cities in Fujian, Guizhou, Hubei, Jiangsu and Sichuan provinces. All respondents have abilities to travel to Japan economically and potentials to travel. Altogether 800 questionnaires were distributed and 756 were returned. Descriptive analysis was used to analyze the travel intention characteristics of domestic residents to Japan utilizing SPSS21.0. Four vital realities were found from the analysis. First, seeking entertainment opportunities can be the main motivation for Chinese residents travelling to Japan. Second, the family-based tour ought to be considered as the main trip mode. Third, the primary channels for tourism information dissemination include travel agencies and tourism e-commercial websites. Fourth, four to six-day staying in Japan could be proved as a suitable choice for domestic residents who prefer travelling during the national holidays and paid vacations. The CHAID decision tree model is reasonably used to analyze the differences of the intentions to travel among potential tourists in China. Based on the decision tree analysis, most citizens would choose to "cancel the travel plan" (29.0%), followed by "replace tourist destination" and "postpone the travel", yet only 19.6% would "travel as scheduled" in the light of the post impacts of Diaoyu Island political crisis. There could be no doubt that the vast majority of citizens in China lay emphasis on the macro political environment when making a travel decision. Four dominant nodes were generated in tree simulation, namely respective age, number of times to Japan, monthly income and marital status. This study has made a detailed analysis on the causes, and provides each group with tailored marketing measures eventually. Thereby, mixed measures should be implemented, including short-term and long-term plans, to recover the tourism market effectively. From the perspective of crisis decision-making and crisis marketing, this study segments the mainland Chinese citizens in order to disclose the heterogeneity and clustering features of them. The results of the study may set up a systematic foundation for better positioning potential tourists by furnishing an exploratory method for crisis management and crisis marketing.

The creation of painting in Taiwan in the early twentieth century was first inspired by Japanese art teachers. The new idea of "realistic painting" introduced at the time allowed the discovery of "local colors." However, the Taiwanese painters who employed the artistic ideal of "painting one's intent" were able to escape the limitation imposed by the concept of "local colors." How did the painters explore the artistic styles offered by the new global contexts through the colonization of Japan is an important issue that requires in-depth investigation. This issue is further complicated by painters who were not only influenced by the Japanese arts but also the traditional Chinese arts, as some of the Taiwanese painters moved to China after their training in Japan in order to search for a new style that conflates the Eastern and the Western arts. Taking several painters, Liu Jintang, Chen Chengpo, and Guo Bochuan as examples, this paper explores issues of identity, cultural impacts, and stylistic developments of the arts in the early twentieth century.

This research investigates the features of translated text and non-translated texts through analyzing the sentence length and constituent format in Chinese to Japanese and Japanese to Chinese translation. It uses a corpus-based methodology and sets up a model to describe translators' linguistic choice patterns. The small-scaled bi-directional, comparable and parallel corpus is constructed to facilitate a detailed investigation into the relationship between language usage of SL and TL. This study concludes that translators tend to avoid complex and unique linguistic features in SL and TL and tend to accept features of source texts with the condition that the rules of TL will not be violated. This paper intends not only to contribute to the theoretical consideration of specific features of translation, but also offer insight into translation pedagogy and practices between Japanese and Chinese.

At China-Japan-Korea summit meeting in 2010, the government leaders from the three countries agree to promote the establishment of China-Japan-Korea Free Trade Agreement (CJKFTA) to accelerate the regional trade liberalization. China's agricultural commodities hold comparative advantages in the trade among the three countries, but the environmental impact may rise from the successive enlargement of export and domestic production scale. Thus there is a need of assessing the environmental impact of such a trade policy to help the negotiators understand and pay more attention to the environment issues during CJKFTA negotiations, and help lobby the governments to carry out appropriate policy instruments for adaption or mitigation. The Chain Reaction Assessment Method (CRAM) serves to be the analysis framework, under which a Computable Partial Equilibrium (CPE) model is employed as the major analysis tool. This methodology is suitable for quantitative evaluations of economic and environmental impacts of trade policies, with the capacity of in-depth analysis on more disaggregated industrial sectors and in a more explicit view. This paper carries out simulations in three policy scenarios with discriminated levels of regional trade liberalization. Comparison of the simulation results of the FTA with the baseline scenario indicates that CJKFTA will improve the development of China's agriculture by increasing the trade volume and domestic production. Meanwhile, negative environmental impacts can be expected, including the increase of water resource consumptions and pollutant emissions, such as COD, TN, TP, agricultural chemicals, agricultural films, and green house gases. Therefore, necessary policy countermeasures should be taken to mitigate such impacts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Dai Shu Shu (Algebra) and Wei Ji Su Yuan (The Roots of Calculus) translated by Hua Hengfang (1833-1902) and John Fryer (1839-1928), mathematical works in the late Qing Dynasty had exerted great impact on the internationalization of Japanese mathematics, and the influence had lasted until the Meiji Restoration period. This paper focuses on the Chinese ions of these works such as a missionary in China, which had exerted great influence on the internationalization of Japanese mathematics during the Meiji Restoration period. Firstly, a synopsis is offered of some maths works introduced into Japan translated by others except Hua Hengfang and their influence on Japanese mathematics. Secondly, the author of Notes to the Method of Algebra and his mathematical researches are introduced, together with an analysis of the Notes and the western mathematics and the literature of the latter spread into Japan during the early period of Meiji Restoration via comparison between the Notes and the Chinese translation. Finally, some accounts are offered of Japanese scholars during the Meiji period who referred to and cited from Chinese translations of mathematical works like the Origin of Calculus in their studies or translations of western ones.

The East Asian region is experiencing rapid aging process. The traditional filial norm often confronts with the modernization impact which results in structural changes in the family and in the intergenerational interaction. Data are taken from the 2006 East Asian Social Survey. This study investigates what are types of intergenerational interactions for adult children who do not co-reside with parents in four East Asian countries, China, South Korea, Japan and Taiwan. Relying on intergenerational solidarity theory, this study uses latentclass analysis (LCA) to develop a typology based on two dimensions of intergenerational solidarity: Associational solidarity (frequency of contact) and functional solidarity (instrumental and financial support exchange). This study compares the types of intergenerational interactions between China, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan, and describes the geographic distance between generations , resources of adult childrenand parental needs in the types of intergenerational interaction.
