看到一個老的交響樂團隊的名字用的 sinfonia 這個詞，而不是 symphony，原來這個詞是用來指17、18世紀(jì)的交響樂團的，然后一些當(dāng)代樂團想仿古一下也會用這個詞：
Sinfonia is the Italian word for symphony. In English it most commonly refers to a 17th- or 18th-century orchestral piece used as an introduction, interlude, or postlude to an opera, oratorio, cantata, or suite (Abate 1999, who gives the origin of the word as Italian). The word is also found in other Romance languages such as Spanish or Portuguese.
看韓國的紀(jì)錄片《學(xué)習(xí)的人》里面有一個 Steven J. Heine 的心理學(xué)實驗，比較東方人和西方人在得知自己比一起參加實驗的人更優(yōu)秀/更差時候的表現(xiàn)，東方人有很明顯的趨同心理，非常棒的實驗：
Steven J. Heine is a Canadian professor of psychology at the University of British Columbia, Department of Psychology. He specialises in cultural psychology and has been described as "a leading figure" in that field.
Heine's research specialty is social psychology, particularly cultural psychology with an emphasis on the differences between Western and East Asian culture. He also has done research on the Meaning Maintenance Model and genetic essentialism.
這會是儒學(xué)所面臨的不可逾越的障礙嗎？
Yeshiva University 大學(xué)是紐約的一所猶太人大學(xué)，猶太人的圖書館都是無比喧嘩的，這個是和全世界大部分其他地方的圖書館是很不一樣的占卧，就我個人而言叭喜，我也喜歡可以交流討論的圖書館：
Yeshiva University is a private university in New York City, with four campuses in New York City. Founded in 1886, it is a research university.
The university's undergraduate schools—Yeshiva College, Stern College for Women, and Syms School of Business—offer a dual curriculum inspired by Modern-Centrist-Orthodox Judaism's hashkafa (philosophy) of Torah Umadda ("Torah and secular knowledge") combining academic education with the study of the Torah. Yeshiva is perhaps best known for its secular, highly selective graduate schools, the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law. The Forward announced on May 27, 2014 that Yeshiva would be shedding the financial burden of the Albert Einstein College of Medicine when the medical school is taken over by the Bronx-based Montefiore Health Systems.
