Black Myth: Wukong, a large-scale role-playing game adapted from the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West, has attracted widespread attention and acclaim from players around the world upon its release. The game contains a large number of texts rich in Chinese cultural connotations, and translation plays a crucial role in smoothly promoting the game’s internationalization. From the perspective of Functional Equivalence Theory, this paper briefly analyzes the strategies and methods adopted by translators in game text translation, aiming to provide translation practice references for the “internationalization” of Chinese culture.</p> 2026-03-18T10:42:47+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14252 Optimizing International Chinese Language Education in the Context of “Telling China’s Story Well” 2026-03-19T13:09:59+08:00 Aliya Aerken team@bbwpublisher.com <p>With the deepening of “Belt and Road” cooperation, China has actively participated in the construction and adjustment of various international systems. In recent years, China’s international influence and status have attracted widespread attention and great importance worldwide. As a form of “soft power”, alongside hard power indicators like international standing, military strength, and economic growth, culture is a crucial factor reflecting a nation’s comprehensive international strength. The quality of international Chinese language education, which serves as a vehicle for both language dissemination and cultural transmission, is directly linked to the effectiveness of communicating Chinese stories and building international discourse power. However, although international Chinese language education has achieved leapfrog development, it still faces development dilemmas. Based on this, this paper deeply explores the optimization strategies of international Chinese language education under the background of “telling China’s story well” for reference.</p> 2026-03-18T10:49:46+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14002 Comparative Study on the Reporting of the 2023 Israel–Palestine Conflict by Chinese and American Official Media: Narrative Frames, Stance, and International Public Opinion Division 2026-03-19T13:09:58+08:00 Shuaijun Liu team@bbwpublisher.com <p>This paper studies narrative frameworks, ideological stances, and the fragmentation of public opinion in Chinese and American media of the 2023 Israel-Palestine conflict. The study finds that both official media in China and the US embrace different narrative structures and ideological positions on the Israel-Palestine issue. This reflects their contestations on public opinion internationally. Examining similarities and differences in the media coverage helps to reveal the causes and consequences of international public opinion fragmentation and gives a new way of looking at how international news is spread.</p> 2026-03-18T10:52:31+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14003 Analysis of the Psychological Motivation and Communication Characteristics of “Cyber Violence” in the Social Media Environment 2026-03-19T13:09:57+08:00 Yuhan Zhao team@bbwpublisher.com <p>The widespread adoption of social media has fundamentally transformed information dissemination, with cyberspace emerging as a pivotal platform for public opinion expression and interactive communication.

While tools like ChatGPT and Doubao enhance efficiency, they may simultaneously inhibit the development of independent writing skills and critical judgment. Through a mixed-methods design, the study analyzed 107 usable text segments from open-ended survey responses of 80 Chinese undergraduates, capturing authentic descriptions of AI use cases and primary concerns. Findings reveal a consistent efficiency-critique gap. Students proficiently employ AI for rapid, surface-level text optimization using simple commands (e.g., “formalize this email”), yet over 60% express acute anxiety about dependency, skill atrophy, and loss of authentic voice. Their instrumental use aligns with the “identity–ideology–capital” framework, where AI becomes the dominant agent in meaning-making, displacing student agency. While students recognize risks of homogenized output and contextual misalignment, they lack structured practices for critically interrogating AI suggestions. The study concludes that current pedagogical models insufficiently bridge functional tool proficiency and critical digital literacy. The study argues for intentional instructional design that transforms AI from a crutch into a cognitive scaffold—compelling students to slow down the “optimize-submit” cycle, deconstruct algorithmic choices, and actively rewrite outputs for specific rhetorical contexts. By foregrounding students’ own fragmented yet candid voices, this research grounds the AI-in-education debate in empirical learner practices and points toward pedagogical frameworks that reconcile instrumental efficiency with value rationality.</p> 2026-03-18T11:00:21+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14005 Rhythm in the Drum, Dance in the Legacy: A Study on the Preservation and Modern Transformation of Xiangtan Oil-Drum Dance as Intangible Cultural Heritage 2026-03-19T13:09:55+08:00 Qingke Li team@bbwpublisher.com <p>The Xiangtan Oil-Drum Dance, a unique local sacrificial dance, is practiced in the Xiang River basin of Xiangtan, Hunan Province. Characterized by a vigorous and impassioned style and rhythmic, vibrant beats, it projects a distinct aura of awe-inspiring power. As a singular form of single-sided drum dance specific to the Xiangtan region, it remains a rarity within China. In 1986, the dance was documented in the&nbsp;<em>Anthology of Chinese Ethnic and Folk Dances</em>, a key national publication compiled under the auspices of the former Ministry of Culture. It was later listed as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Hunan Province. As a precious relic of folk art, the Oil-Drum Dance not only fills a gap in the narrative of Chinese dance history regarding this region but also provides an invaluable living specimen for the study of sacrificial dance culture in the Chu-Hunan tradition. Guided by the thematic framework of “The Rhythm and the Legacy”, this paper focuses on the safeguarding of the Oil-Drum Dance as Intangible Cultural Heritage and its modern transformation. It systematically reviews the current state of its transmission, analyzes in depth the challenges it faces—particularly the rupture in intergenerational transmission—and explores pathways for its living preservation and strategies for its modernization. The aim is to facilitate the art form’s better adaptation to contemporary societal needs and to provide insights for the inheritance and innovation of similar forms of Intangible Cultural Heritage.</p> 2026-03-18T11:01:41+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14006 The Symbiosis of Reality and Illusion in Cinematic Storytelling: An Aesthetic Deconstruction of the Stage Imagery in the Dance Performance “Smoke” 2026-03-19T13:09:54+08:00 Yiheng Guo 1320366088@qq.com <p>The presentation of a stage can be expressed through the body or through the camera, and there is an inherent aesthetic connection between the two. Camera direction, shot composition, and framing can highlight the textured interplay of illusion and reality on stage, bringing a new aesthetic dimension to dance. Taking the dance work “Smoke” as an example, this article explores, from the perspective of the camera, how stage shots can create an aesthetic space of “illusion” and “reality” through filming techniques, choice of shot sizes, and composition. At the same time, using “Smoke” to analyze the aesthetic logic of the combination of illusion and reality in dance under camera narration, it discusses its role in enhancing the emotional impact of dance and expanding the boundaries of dance aesthetics, thereby providing some theoretical reference for the integration of stage design and camera language in dance.</p> 2026-03-18T11:02:55+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14007 International Legal Foundations of AI Governance and Soft-Law Mechanisms 2026-03-19T13:09:53+08:00 Ziying Wu team@bbwpublisher.com <p>Against the intertwined evolution of globalization and digitalization, the breakthrough development of artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping international society with unprecedented breadth and depth. The governance challenges it generates transcend the boundaries of any single state, making it urgently necessary to construct a robust and effective international regulatory framework capable of providing systematic responses. At present, the international legal foundations for AI governance remain weak and exhibit a fragmented character. Hard-law mechanisms centered on treaty-making among sovereign states face significant difficulties in forging global consensus due to their inherent procedural rigidity, high negotiation costs, and inability to keep pace with rapid technological iteration. Under these real-world constraints, soft-law mechanisms—comprising guidelines, principles, standards, and codes of conduct advocated and formulated by international organizations, multi-stakeholder forums, professional standard-setting bodies, and industry alliances—are playing an increasingly pivotal, pioneering, and supplementary role in global AI governance by virtue of their flexibility, adaptability, and inclusiveness. This study aims to systematically examine the scope and limits of the effect of existing international-law bases for AI governance and to analyze their structural defects and bottlenecks in application; it then focuses on soft-law mechanisms, offering a detailed account of their core functions, diverse forms, operational logic, and practical influence within today’s governance ecosystem. Finally, the study provides a forward-looking discussion of how soft law and any future international hard-law frameworks might develop dynamic linkages and functional complementarity, with a view to providing a solid theoretical reference and roadmap for building an international cooperative system of AI governance that balances technological development, ethical considerations, security needs, and global public interests. The central thesis advanced here is that, over the medium to long term, in which AI paradigms continue to evolve rapidly, soft-law mechanisms will remain the most active and pragmatic leading normative force in the global governance system, and their successful practice will lay indispensable social-cognitive and normative foundations for any legally binding international regime that may emerge.</p> 2026-03-18T11:04:16+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14008 Adjustments to Automobile Policies in Europe, the US, and Japan, and Countermeasures for China’s Automotive Industry 2026-03-19T13:09:52+08:00 Zhanhui Yao shijian@catarc.ac.cn Peng Ge shijian@catarc.ac.cn Jian Shi shijian@catarc.ac.cn <p>In 2025, major countries and regions worldwide signed and implemented a series of policy measures related to new energy vehicles. Overall, Europe, the United States, and Japan exhibited distinct differences in their support policies for new energy vehicles. The U.S. tended to favor traditional fuel-powered vehicles, curbing the development of new energy vehicles, shifting from policy-driven to market-led autonomy. Some European countries no longer maintain their original subsidies for new energy vehicles, instead focusing on advancing charging infrastructure and investing in technological R&amp;D for these vehicles. Meanwhile, Japan continued to encourage new energy vehicle consumption while optimizing its domestic new energy vehicle supply chain to drive industrial upgrades and enhance competitiveness in the international market.</p> 2026-03-18T11:06:17+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14009 A Review of the Concepts, Theories, and Research Methods of Psychological Bias 2026-03-19T13:09:51+08:00 Wei Hu team@bbwpublisher.com Dong Wang team@bbwpublisher.com <p><em>Objective</em>: This paper aims to systematically review and comment on the concepts, theories, and research methods in the field of psychological bias, with the goal of integrating the existing knowledge system and framework, and pointing out future research and development directions. <em>Methods</em>: Through literature review and retrospective analysis, key studies on psychological bias across multiple disciplines, including cognitive psychology, clinical psychology, and neuroscience, were summarized and evaluated. <em>Results</em>: Conceptually, psychological bias is regarded as a cognitive pattern that systematically deviates from rational judgment criteria; theoretically, it can be primarily explained by dual-process theory, heuristic-systematic model, and cognitive neural mechanisms; research methods encompass experimental paradigms, neuroimaging techniques, and computational modeling. <em>Conclusion</em>: Research on psychological bias necessitates further integration of theory and clinical practice, in-depth exploration of the concept of psychological bias, comprehensive evaluation of theories, combination of research methods with modern high-tech, development of scientific intervention programs, and exploration of the guiding role of psychological bias classification in clinical interventions, to promote precise and efficient development in the field of clinical intervention for mental health.</p> 2026-03-18T11:07:42+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14010 Research on the Function of Social Media Public Opinion in Government Governance: Focusing on the Absorption of Public Sentiment 2026-03-19T13:09:50+08:00 Shuangwei Chen 964978427@qq.com Jiarong Qiu 964978427@qq.com Yucheng Wei 964978427@qq.com Qiaoling Wang 964978427@qq.com Siyuan Gu 964978427@qq.com Xiaotong Yang 964978427@qq.com <p>Social media has become the main channel for public opinion expression and public discussion, reshaping the interaction between the government and the people. It brings opportunities for governance transformation while also challenging the traditional closed system. This paper focuses on how social media public opinion functions in government governance through the “public opinion absorption” mechanism, using literature and comparative research. The conclusion shows that it has a dual nature in public opinion absorption: it broadens channels and enhances the scientific and democratic nature of decision-making, but also poses risks of absorption disorder due to emotionalization and fragmentation. It is suggested to improve institutionalized absorption, enhance data governance and public opinion discrimination, strengthen governance accuracy and response, and build a benign interactive network governance pattern.</p> 2026-03-18T11:09:37+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14011 Mechanisms and Pathways for Empowering the Cultivation of Chinese National Community Consciousness in Universities through Sports Intangible Cultural Heritage 2026-03-19T13:09:49+08:00 Dongxiang Huang team@bbwpublisher.com Biao Fu team@bbwpublisher.com Xiaobing Wang team@bbwpublisher.com Jianxun Wu team@bbwpublisher.com <p>Universities play a pivotal role in fostering Chinese national community consciousness.

After Chinese cities have entered the stage of stock development, urban parks face multiple contradictions, including value realization, management efficiency, financial structure, and diverse demands. This study proposes a transition framework: from “spatial production” to “value co-creation”, from “government-led” to “multi-stakeholder governance”, from “one-way investment” to “asset win-win”, and from “closed management” to “open sharing.” The study also elaborates on how Changfeng Park achieved renovation and upgrading through strategies such as enhancing the value of themed activity spaces, involving multiple parties in design, coordinating the green economy, and creating vibrant and open interfaces. The research results provide theoretical and practical references for resolving conflicts in urban park construction and operation and promoting the development of urban green spaces.</p> 2026-03-18T11:12:16+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14013 Innovative Cultivation and Application Research of Broad-Spectrum Anticancer Ganoderma lucidum (Red Reishi) Based on Synergistic Bio-Enhancement 2026-03-19T13:09:47+08:00 Zhigang Hu team@bbwpublisher.com Xiaohong Lv team@bbwpublisher.com Xin Li team@bbwpublisher.com Jingzhang Li team@bbwpublisher.com Pimnara Pacharasirichinda team@bbwpublisher.com <p>This study overcomes the limitations of traditional anticancer effects of <em>Ganoderma lucidum</em> and pioneers an innovative cultivation system for anticancer Reishi based on synergistic bio-enhancement integrating “traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) compound formula — enzymatic pretreatment — gene editing — transgenic metabolism.” The core technologies include: Construction of a cultivation substrate incorporating anticancer TCM compound formulas; Application of targeted enzymatic hydrolysis technology to efficiently cleave macromolecular active components in TCM; Precise modification of membrane transport systems in Ganoderma strains using the CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing platform; Reconstruction of metabolic pathways through transgenic technology to achieve synergistic enrichment and stable storage of exogenous antitumor active components together with endogenous functional components of Ganoderma.

This paper analyzes the systemic challenges facing China’s agricultural green and low-carbon transformation from three dimensions—technology, economics, and structure—including inadequate technology adaptation and diffusion barriers, input shortages and imbalanced return cycles, regional development imbalances, and extensive industrial structures. Building on this analysis, the paper proposes a three-pronged transformation pathway—“technology convergence to empower production optimization, factor restructuring to strengthen economic support, and structural adjustment to drive coordinated development”—by integrating perspectives on digital economy empowerment, technological innovation-driven approaches, and institutional coordination safeguards. This framework aims to provide theoretical reference and practical insights for China’s sustainable agricultural development and the achievement of its dual carbon goals.</p> 2026-03-18T11:15:55+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14014 Research on Pre-Approval Public Announcement in Territorial Spatial Permission 2026-03-19T13:09:45+08:00 Cheng Zhong team@bbwpublisher.com Shumei Tang team@bbwpublisher.com <p>At present, the implementation of developing the system of territorial spatial planning still centers on three types of permits: site selection and pre-examination on the use of land permit, construction land planning permit, and construction project planning permit. As planning permissions involve a wide scope, extend over a long period, and directly affect the vital interests of residents in surrounding areas, the administrative authority must fulfill the requirement of conducting necessary pre-approval public announcement procedures in accordance with relevant regulations. Based on higher-level laws and related policies, various regions have further refined the pre-approval public announcement process, which can be categorized into two types: general public announcement and notification announcement. In the future, national and local legislation on developing the system of territorial spatial planning should further unify key procedural rules, and clarify the specific content of the general public announcement system and notification announcement system for planning permission. so as to promote the realization of procedural justice and substantive fairness in planning permits.</p> 2026-03-18T11:18:41+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14015 Design and Ultrafast Laser Direct Writing of Drag-Increasing Structures on Valve Surfaces 2026-03-19T13:09:44+08:00 Hao Wang wanghao1@opt.ac.cn Yu Tan tanyu@opt.ac.cn <p>To address the issues of significant damping attenuation and short service life of existing drag-increasing valves, this study proposes a design and fabrication method for such valves based on recessed microstructures. The finite element method (FEM) was employed to simulate the effects of microstructural geometric parameters on gas flow pressure drop, and the optimal structural parameters were determined as follows: groove depth of 0.63 mm, bottom parameter of 0.66 mm, and base angle of 43.67°. Subsequently, a picosecond laser integrated with a power stabilization system was used to fabricate the microstructures on rotating workpieces, achieving a geometric accuracy better than 3 μm.

This study takes Hongyadong, a landmark nighttime tourist attraction in Yuzhong District, Chongqing, as a case study. Based on the theory of tourism destination image, the study constructs a research framework consisting of image perception diagnosis, core issue identification, and optimization path proposal. By crawling 352 tourist reviews from Ctrip and employing web text analysis methods, the study analyzes the tourism image of Hongyadong from three dimensions: cognitive, affective, and overall image. The findings reveal that tourists have formed a composite cognitive image centered on “nightscape + architecture + culture + commerce”, with a predominantly positive affective orientation. However, issues such as superficial experience modes and overcrowding persist. Based on these findings, optimization paths are proposed, including creating culturally immersive experiences, introducing intelligent management, and diversifying business formats, to promote the high-quality development of Hongyadong and similar nighttime tourist destinations.</p> 2026-03-18T13:57:12+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14018 Mechatronic Design of a Lower Limb Exoskeleton for Rehabilitation Training 2026-03-19T13:09:42+08:00 Jing Pu team@bbwpublisher.com <p>This paper presents the comprehensive mechatronic design and preliminary experimental validation of a lower limb exoskeleton robot specifically engineered for rehabilitation training of individuals with gait impairments resulting from conditions such as stroke, spinal cord injury, or neuromuscular disorders. The proposed system is a modular, adjustable, back-drivable robotic orthosis that provides assisted movement for the hip and knee joints in the sagittal plane. The core mechanical design prioritizes patient safety, ergonomic comfort, and alignment with natural human kinematics, utilizing lightweight aluminum alloys and composite materials. The actuation system integrates high-performance brushless DC motors with harmonic drive reducers and series elastic elements to deliver smooth, compliant torque output, thereby ensuring a natural human-robot interaction. A hierarchical control architecture is implemented, featuring high-level gait trajectory generation based on physiological gait data and adaptive impedance-based low-level torque control to accommodate varying levels of patient impairment and participation. Preliminary benchtop tests and single-subject feasibility trials were conducted to evaluate the system’s mechanical integrity, control performance, and basic usability. Results indicate that the exoskeleton can accurately track prescribed rehabilitation trajectories with minimal error, provides stable and adjustable assistance, and demonstrates satisfactory mechanical robustness. The discussion elaborates on the implications of the mechatronic integration choices, the adaptability of the control strategy for different therapeutic paradigms, and the critical pathway towards full clinical trials. This work establishes a foundational platform for a safe, effective, and patient-adaptive robotic rehabilitation device, contributing to the advancement of technology-assisted neurorehabilitation.</p> 2026-03-18T11:27:38+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14019 Differentiated Paths and Digital Collaborative Mechanisms of the Integration of Intangible Cultural Heritage with Cultural Tourism and MICE Industry—A Comparative Study Based on Multiple Cases 2026-03-19T13:09:41+08:00 Xin He team@bbwpublisher.com Yayi Yang team@bbwpublisher.com Yingling Ou team@bbwpublisher.com Yuling Ouyang team@bbwpublisher.com Feixue Li team@bbwpublisher.com Jiamin Hong team@bbwpublisher.com Zhanhao Liang team@bbwpublisher.com <p>The in-depth integration of intangible cultural heritage (ICH) with the MICE industry and cultural tourism has become an important path to promote cultural inheritance and industrial upgrading, yet it currently faces challenges such as homogenized paths and insufficient technological empowerment. Based on the theories of industrial integration, cultural ecology, and collaborative governance, this paper constructs an analytical framework of “resources—paths—technology—collaboration—effectiveness.” Through a comparative study of multiple cases, including the Zhejiang ICH Exhibition, Chengdu International Intangible Cultural Heritage Festival, and Jilin Intangible Cultural Heritage Festival, it explores the differentiated integration paths and digital collaborative mechanisms of ICH cultural tourism and MICE. The study finds that differentiated paths rely on the triple coupling of ICH endowments, MICE positioning, and tourism market demand; digitalization provides support through efficiency, experience, and collaboration, while current obstacles include technology-content disjuncture and online-offline fragmentation. Accordingly, optimization strategies are proposed from the perspectives of content adaptation, scenario linkage, and talent cultivation, to facilitate the transformation of ICH cultural tourism and MICE integration from “formal integration” to “substantive integration.”</p> 2026-03-18T11:30:24+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14020 Character Language and Character Traits in the RPG Game Persona 5: The Phantom X 2026-03-19T13:09:40+08:00 Yingyi Zhang team@bbwpublisher.com <p>Taking the RPG mobile game <em>Persona 5: The Phantom X</em> (hereinafter referred to as <em>P5X</em>) as the research object, this paper analyzes the language use characteristics of five main characters based on Satoshi Kinsui’s concept of “role language” and its indicators.

Corrosion rates, corrosion products, and corrosion morphology were systematically analyzed and compared. The results indicate that high pressure and high Cl- concentration are the primary environmental factors promoting concurrent uniform corrosion and localized pitting. All three steels exhibited the highest corrosion severity under the most severe conditions. The quenched and tempered antibacterial steel consistently maintained the lowest average corrosion rate and controlled pitting depth across various conditions. The corrosion behavior of the hot-rolled antibacterial steel was influenced by the integrity of its product film and biofilm, while the conventional steel was more susceptible to severe localized corrosion under high pressure. Microscopic analysis revealed that the characteristics of corrosion products and biofilm structure jointly determine the differences in corrosion resistance.</p> 2026-03-18T11:41:48+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14022 A Study on the Production and Communication Strategies of Folk Culture Content on Short-Video Platforms 2026-03-19T13:09:38+08:00 Jiaxin Li liivy528@163.com <p>In the era of digital communication, short videos, with their advantages of fragmentation, immersion, and interactivity, have become an important medium for the inheritance and dissemination of folk culture. Based on the characteristics of short-video platforms and the intrinsic connotations of folk culture, this paper explores the significant value of folk culture dissemination on short-video platforms, clarifies the core requirements for folk culture content creation in the short-video era, and focuses on targeted strategies for content production and communication. By addressing problems such as homogenization and the weakening of cultural connotations in current folk culture short-video dissemination, this study aims to promote the living inheritance of folk culture, enhance the communicative power and social influence of traditional culture, and provide references for related research and practice.</p> 2026-03-18T11:43:12+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14023 Bridging Culture and Community: A Study on the Community Participation Mechanism for the Revitalization of Chikan Old Street in Zhanjiang 2026-03-19T13:09:37+08:00 Yiming He jovi821208@gmail.com Di Wu jovi821208@gmail.com Shuiling Wang jovi821208@gmail.com <p>Historical district revitalization in contemporary China often encounters a critical tension between state-led infrastructural efficiency and the organic preservation of community life. This study examines the revitalization of Chikan Old Street in Zhanjiang, Guangdong, as a paradigmatic case study to explore the mechanisms of community participation in heritage conservation. Adopting a qualitative case study design, this research utilizes participatory observation and semi-structured interviews to investigate the barriers to effective community engagement. Through the theoretical lens of Empowerment Theory and the ERG (Existence, Relatedness, Growth) framework, the study reveals structural disconnects in the current top-down governance model, including policy discontinuity and social fragmentation. The findings underscore the paradox of popularity, where increased visibility leads to the dilution of local identity. This study proposes a professionalized social work intervention mechanism. By establishing a multi-stakeholder collaborative platform, social workers can bridge the gap between government objectives and resident needs, employing cultural mapping and micro-regeneration tactics to restore community agency.</p> 2026-03-18T11:44:40+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14024 AI Translation vs. Human Originality: A Corpus-Based Comparative Analysis of Academic Persuasiveness in Scientific Literature 2026-03-19T13:09:36+08:00 Wenzhen Li leaperry@126.com Zhaoxing Zhou leaperry@126.com Yaqing Liu leaperry@126.com Xuehui Zhang leaperry@126.com <p>Based on the Toulmin argumentation model and corpus quantitative analysis, this study compares the academic persuasive features of Chinese original, AI-translated, and English original scientific texts. The results show that AI translation can reproduce the basic “claim-evidence” framework but lacks higher-order argumentative elements, with mechanical conversion of logical relations and imbalanced rhetorical strategies. Cross-cultural comparison reveals that Chinese academic writing adopts “explicit persuasion” while English uses “implicit persuasion”, and AI fails to adapt to such differences, reflecting its core shortcoming in argumentative reconstruction rather than language conversion. This study verifies the Toulmin model’s effectiveness in cross-linguistic analysis, provides empirical implications for AI technology optimization, scholar usage strategies, and academic translation industry development, and offers a path to improve academic communication quality in the technological innovation context.</p> 2026-03-18T11:47:15+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14025 The Construction of Houguan Culture and the Training System for New-Age Agricultural Talents 2026-03-19T13:09:35+08:00 Yingying Wei weiyingying513-68@qq.com Enqi Kang weiyingying513-68@qq.com Huixuan Zhang weiyingying513-68@qq.com <p>Houguan Culture embodies profound connotations of patriotism and dedication, openness and inclusiveness, pragmatism and innovation, as well as emphasis on education. It provides a crucial cultural foundation and value guidance for the cultivation of agricultural talents in the new era. Against the strategic backdrop of rural revitalization and agricultural modernization, this paper explores how to integrate Houguan Culture into the construction of the training system for new-age agricultural talents. By analyzing the spiritual characteristics of Houguan Culture and its alignment with the quality requirements for contemporary agricultural talents, the paper proposes a people-oriented training model for new-age agricultural talents that systematically integrates humanistic literacy with technological capabilities, guided by cultural immersion. The purpose is to provide theoretical and practical references for the reform of new-age agricultural talent training, and contribute to the connotative and high-quality development of agricultural education as well as the comprehensive revitalization of rural areas.</p> 2026-03-18T11:50:00+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14235 Collaborative Alienation and Power Reconfiguration in Sports Fandom Governance 2026-03-19T13:10:01+08:00 Weijun Tan weiji245@gmail.com Kunjin Luo weiji245@gmail.com Deyi Huang weiji245@gmail.com Peng Ning weiji245@gmail.com Youxuan Chen weiji245@gmail.com <p>The migration of fan culture into sports has created “sports fan circles”, enhancing athlete visibility but introducing governance challenges. Drawing on media ecology theory, this study examines power redistribution among platforms, organizations, and fans. We propose “informal power networks” and “collaborative alienation” as analytical concepts, arguing that emotionally charged fan practices displace formal governance. An adaptive model is proposed based on three pillars: platform responsibility re-embedding, organizational authority repositioning, and fan self-regulation.</p> 2026-03-18T00:00:00+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14237 “Living Under the Shadow”: The Production and Internalization of Spatial Fear in Never Let Me Go 2026-03-19T13:09:34+08:00 Yaohong Gao team@bbwpublisher.com <p>This article examines the mechanisms of affective governance in Kazuo Ishiguro’s Never Let Me Go, focusing on how spatial fear is produced by mainstream society and subsequently internalized by the clones. Drawing on Sara Ahmed’s politics of emotion, Michel Foucault’s panopticism, and Giorgio Agamben’s concept of the camp, the study argues that fear is not a natural emotion but a carefully engineered political technology. Through external spatial segregation, internal architectural division, and the circulation of horror narratives, mainstream society constructs fear as a means of boundary-making and population control. The second part demonstrates how clones internalize this fear through emotional orientation, bodily practices, and narrative absorption, transforming externally imposed boundaries into mechanisms of self-surveillance. The novel thus illuminates a subtle yet effective form of biopolitical power that operates through the management and distribution of fear.</p> 2026-03-18T11:53:11+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/ssr/article/view/14238 Study on Soil Enzymes of Typical Plant Communities in Ecological Reconstruction Wetland 2026-03-19T13:09:34+08:00 Jiarui Zhang team@bbwpublisher.com <p>This study comparatively assessed soil enzyme activities in three constructed plant communities and one natural community in the Chongxi tidal flat wetland of the Yangtze River Estuary. The results demonstrated that rhizosphere soil in <em>Alnus trabeculosa</em> plantations exhibited significantly higher alkaline phosphatase, protease, urease, and catalase activities compared to artificial communities dominated by <em>Phragmites communis</em>, <em>Salix matsudana</em>, and <em>Taxodium distichum </em>(<em>P</em>&lt;0.01). Vertical distribution analysis revealed that protease and urease activities markedly decreased with depth (61.93% reduction on average), while catalase activity remained stable. Alkaline phosphatase activity generally declined with depth but displayed a distinct peak at 15–30 cm. Notably, rhizosphere soil enzyme activities were 1.07–2.84 times higher than non-rhizosphere levels. These findings highlight <em>Alnus trabeculosa</em> as a keystone species for enhancing soil biogeochemical functions in estuarine wetland restoration.</p> 2026-03-18T11:55:10+08:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Author(s)
