Something to Think About: Parenting Children with Mental Illness

06 Мая 2015, реферат

According to the National Institute of Mental Health, a government agency dedicated to medical research, at least half of all cases of lifetime mental illness appear before age fourteen. The National Alliance on Mental Illness says 1 in 5 children between the ages of 13 and 18 live with a severe mental illness. Parents who are raising children with mental illness must contend with social stigma, lack of psychiatric support, and a dearth of appropriate interventions. Yet we hear very little from those parents and kids who are struggling except when the cases are outrageous and tragic. I brought together two moms who are parenting children who are mentally ill and who are out-spoken advocates for greater support and information.

Special Economic Zones in Russia

19 Сентября 2012, монография

Approximately 20 special economic zones (SEZs) have been founded in Russia. Four of them are innovation zones, two manufacturing zones, seven tourism zones, three port zones and two old zones of the 1990's, namely the Kaliningrad SEZ and the Magadan SEZ. Additionally, four gambling zones are to be opened by July 2009.
The Russian SEZs currently produce more plans than results i.e. unrealistic plans characterise the contemporary Russian SEZs. Only the Kaliningrad SEZ and the Magadan SEZ can be classified as fully operational, and therefore, it is far too early to make any firm conclusion on the economic impact of these zones on the Russian economy. On the other hand, it is highly recommendable that a follow-up of the Russian SEZs will be carried out in 3-5 years from now, since the results of today do not necessarily describe the potential of tomorrow.

Stimme und sprache

20 Мая 2013, реферат

Die menschliche Stimme und auch die Sprache sind die Mittel, die zur Verständigung in der Gesellschaft dienen. Die Stimme ist dabei ein Instrument, um sich auszudrücken. Um das zu verstehen, was man ausdrücken und mitteilen möchte, wird die Sprache verwendet. Die Stimme ist also die Grundlage für die Sprache, ohne sie, kann man sich verbal nicht verständigen.1
Übergeleitet in den Berufsalltag, werden die Stimme und die Sprache mehr oder weniger stark beansprucht. In seltenen Fällen kann es auch passieren, dass die Stimme überbeansprucht wird. Das äußert sich dadurch, dass die Stimme einfach ausfällt, man spricht dann auch von Heiserkeit. Menschen, die beruflich viel sprechen müssen, werden versuchen, den Ausdruck ihrer Stimme akzentfrei bzw. dialektfrei an die Zielpersonen zu richten

Story time and discourse time

18 Февраля 2014, реферат

Time analysis is concerned with the order of the events that occur in a story and with the proportioning of story time and discourse time. An anachrony is a deviation from strict chronology in a story. The two main types of anachrony are flashbacks and flashforwards. A flashback is the presentation of events that have occurred before the beginning of the main events narrated in the story. A flash-forward is the presentation of a future event before its proper time. An objective flashforward presents an event that will actually occur; whereas a subjective flashforward is just a character's vision of a likely future event. Repetitive anachronies (both flashforwards and flashbacks) recall already narrated events; completive anachronies present events that are omitted in the primary story. External anachronies present events that take place before the beginning or after the end of the primary story; while anachronies that fall within the range of the primary story are internal anachronies. The time it takes an average reader to read a passage, or, more generally, the whole text is defined as discourse time. The fictional time taken up by the events in the text is called story time If it takes you less time to read the text (30 minutes) than for the events in it to happen (a week), the durational aspect of this text will be identified as speed-up presentation.

Structural and semantic Characteristics of Nouns

15 Апреля 2013, дипломная работа

The noun is a word expressing substance in the widest sense of the word. In the concept of substance we include not only names of living beings (e.g. boy, girl, bird) and lifeless things (e.g. table, chair, book), but also names of abstract notions, i.e. qualities, slates, actions (kindness, strength, sleep, fear, conversation, fight), abstracted from their bearers. In speech these types of nouns are treated in different ways, so one, who does not know ways of treatment, can make mistakes in his speech. Standing on such ground, we considered the theme of the work actual enough to make investigation.

Structure and classification of phraseological units

22 Мая 2013, реферат

The vocabulary of a language is enriched not only by words but also by phraseological units. Phraseological units are word-groups that cannot be made in the process of speech, they exist in the language as ready-made units. They are compiled in special dictionaries. The same as words phraseological units express a single notion and are used in a sentence as one part of it. American and British lexicographers call such units «idioms». We can mention such dictionaries as: L.Smith «Words and Idioms», V.Collins «A Book of English Idioms» etc. In these dictionaries we can find words, peculiar in their semantics (idiomatic), side by side with word-groups and sentences. In these dictionaries they are arranged, as a rule, into different semantic groups

Tax

13 Мая 2013, лекция

A tax is a compulsory charge or other levy imposed on an individual or a legal entity by a state or a functional equivalent of a state (e.g., tribes, secessionist movements or revolutionary movements). Taxes could also be imposed by a subnational entity.
Taxes may be paid in cash or in kind or as corvee labor.
