Public participation has always played an important role in urban design and planning. Urban green infrastructure is a part of urban planning and design. This research uses a policy review and semi-structured interviews with residents and stakeholders. The findings suggest that the lack of public participation in urban green infrastructure projects is the result of a combination of both government and the general public. Residents have low interest in participating in urban green infrastructure due to social cultural, public competence and lack of community spirit. Stakeholders have tried to avoid public participation in projects due to limited participation methods and limited project timeline. Citizen participation can be increased through improved technical support, media advocacy and legislation and regulations.

Promoting Mandarin is one essential aspect of building a strong sense of community in the Chinese nation. In his report to the 20th CPC National Congress, General Secretary Xi Jinping proposed increasing the promotion of the national common language. However, some problems in the current Mandarin promotion strategy urgently need to be remedied. This study takes Shangri-La City, Yunnan Province, as the research object, combines the five "inter-embedded" theories, deeply analyzes the establishment of a solid identity system, and profoundly explores how to effectively deal with the current difficulties in the process of promoting Mandarin and further strengthen the sense of community of the Chinese nation. It attempts to reveal the current situation and challenges of promoting Mandarin in Shangri-La City. It proposes targeted optimization paths in this context, providing theoretical reference and practical guidance for language education and ethnic unity and progress in ethnic areas.

This study applies Kress and Van Leeuwen's Visual Grammar framework to analyze an Instagram post advocating pet protection. The research focuses on representational, interactive, and compositional metafunctions to understand how visual and textual elements combine to convey urgency and empathy. The representational analysis highlights the dog's isolated portrayal and the use of the pronoun "me" to foster an emotional connection. The interactive analysis examines indirect gaze, close-up shots, and low angles to engage viewers and emphasize their role in pet protection. The compositional analysis reveals the strategic placement of verbal and visual elements, with bold text and contrasting colors enhancing the message's salience. This multimodal approach demonstrates the synergy between visual and textual elements, creating a cohesive and persuasive narrative. The study's findings align with existing literature on social semiotics and Visual Grammar, emphasizing the importance of integrated visual strategies in social media advocacy. The research offers practical insights for designing effective pet protection campaigns, highlighting the role of Visual Grammar in promoting responsible pet ownership and animal welfare. Future research should explore the long-term impact of these visual strategies on viewer behavior and the effectiveness of different semiotic modes across various social media platforms.

With the promotion of national emphasis on physical education and the vigorous development of sports industry economy, the role of physical education in colleges and universities is increasingly prominent. The purpose of this paper is to explore the influence of college physical education on the economic development of sports industry, analyze the internal relationship between college physical education and sports industry economy, and provide theoretical support for the reform and development of college physical education. This paper mainly uses the method of literature analysis, through the combing of relevant literature, to understand some universities and sports enterprises online, and to conduct scientific comprehensive analysis of the collected information. It is found that physical education in colleges and universities has an important impact on the development of sports industry economy. On the one hand, college physical education has trained a large number of sports professionals, which provides human resources support for the sports industry; On the other hand, the construction and operation of sports facilities in colleges and universities has also driven the demand for related sports products and services, and promoted the development of the sports industry. In addition, the holding of sports events and activities in colleges and universities has also led to the development of related industries such as spectator and tourism. Therefore, strengthen the deep integration of college physical education and sports industry, and give full play to the leading role of college physical education in the development of sports industry.

As a representative work of Han Yu, "Shan Shi" is highly praised by Su Shi. This contains a distinct writing logic of temporal and spatial order, which makes reading immersive. In addition, the most eye-catching aspect of "Shan Shi" is its artistic technique of "reviving the spirit" and "incorporating literature into poetry", which has an irreplaceable and unique significance and role in the history of Chinese poetry.

In the rapidly evolving Chinese economy, family-owned businesses, integral to the nation's GDP and innovation, face a significant challenge with an impending wave of intergenerational succession. With over 5.5 million such businesses, less than 20% have identified successors, and only 6% have established succession plans. This study examines intergenerational succession in these businesses, applying Handler's (1989) satisfaction and effectiveness framework, alongside Pyromalis et al. (2006)'s model. The research, conducted through interviews with second-generation owners, aims to uncover factors influencing succession satisfaction and effectiveness. Key findings highlight the unique impact of Chinese cultural values on the succession process. Unlike expectations, the reluctance of incumbents to relinquish control isn't a source of frustration for successors, reflecting the cultural emphasis on respect and deference to elders. The study broadens its scope beyond family dynamics to stakeholder relationships, acknowledging their importance in succession. This research merges theoretical and empirical analyses, adapting a Greek-tested model to the Chinese context, thus enhancing its global relevance. It provides insights into Chinese family business succession, shaped by cultural norms, and demonstrates the versatility of Western models in diverse cultural landscapes, enriching the understanding of global family business succession.

This paper examines the use of schema theory in enhancing English reading comprehension in senior high school students. Schema theory, a cognitive psychology framework, emphasizes that readers’ prior knowledge and experiences play a crucial role in comprehending new information. This paper summarizes the basic viewpoints of schema theory and discusses its practical applications in English reading comprehension in senior high school. Research has shown that implementing schema theory not only benefits students’ language skills but also fosters their critical thinking abilities. When students are able to connect new information with their existing schemas, they become more familiar with analyzing and interpreting complex texts. This theory encourages active engagement with the material and promotes a deeper level of comprehension. This paper also addresses challenges and solutions in implementing schema theory. By incorporating schema theory into reading classes, teachers can help students develop a deeper understanding of texts, improve their reading efficiency, and enhance their overall English proficiency.

In the digital age, the spread of misinformation has become a significant concern for individuals and societies worldwide. This study examines the impact of media literacy and the trustworthiness of internet information on fact-checking behavior among retired elderly internet users, with a particular focus on the moderating role of critical thinking. Using a questionnaire survey method, data were collected from 379 retired elderly internet users. The study employs Media Literacy Theory to explore how media literacy and trust in internet information influence the frequency of fact-checking behavior. Results indicate that higher media literacy and trust in internet information are both positively associated with increased fact-checking behavior. Additionally, critical thinking significantly moderates these relationships, enhancing the positive impact of media literacy on fact-checking behavior.
