The translation of metaphors in The Fortress Besieged

Chapter 1 Introduction

1.1 Object of the Study

The Fortress Besieged, written by Qian Zhongshu in 1947, is a fantastic satiric novel in the history of Chinese modern and contemporary literature. The novel is not only popular for its theme but also for its vivid and interesting language. Qian puts a large number of various figures of speech into use. Yang observes, “The statistics show that there are totally 635 metaphors in this novel, including plenty of common metaphors and some unique ones that come from writer’s own life experience” (2011: 2). These unique metaphors have two functions in the novel: ironic function and cognitive function. It is these metaphors that make the novel so special.

The novel is translated into many languages. The most well-known English version is translated by Jeanne Kelly and Nathan K. Mao. Since this English version was published, it has caught many scholars’ eyes. Many scholars regard it as a model to study metaphors and they apply different theories to the research on it. Some scholars study the classification of the metaphors in The Fortress Besieged (Hu Zhuanglin, 2004);some scholars focus on the effect of metaphor on revealing the theme (Su Dingfang, 2000), while this paper tries to analyze the translation of these metaphors to find an effective way of translating Chinese metaphors into English.

1.2 Significance of the Study

Based on the standard of faithfulness, expressiveness, and elegance proposed by Yan Fu (1898), translators devote themselves to retaining the characteristics of source language as much as possible. As both a figure of speech and a cognitive way, metaphor possesses some special cultural features; thus, the translation of metaphors usually faces the dilemma: to keep the original taste or to give a new but similar translation.

Different scholars have different views on the problem. This paper analyzes the translation of metaphor in Kelly and Mao's English version of The Fortress Besieged with the adaption and selection theory of translation in the dimensions of language,

culture, and communication. Through such analysis, the researcher attempts to make the point that translation is an adaption process of not only the ecological environment, but also language, culture, and communication.The purpose of this paper is to seek an effective method for the translation of metaphor in The Fortress Besieged.

1.3 Structure of the Thesis

This thesis is composed of four chapters. Chapter One is the introduction to the object, and significance and outline of the study. Chapter Two is literature review, including definition and classification of metaphor and previous empirical studies on the translation of metaphor and The Fortress Besieged. Chapter Three focuses on the translation of metaphors in The Fortress Besieged. Chapter Four is a conclusion, including major findings, limitations of the present study and suggestions for future study.

Chapter 2 Literature Review

In Chapter Two, the author will review the definition and classification of metaphor, and introduce previous empirical studies of translation of metaphors in The Fortress Besieged

2.1 Definition and Classification of Metaphor

2.1.1 Definition of metaphor

“Metaphor originates from the Greek word metaphor, meaning a transfer of meaning” (Lv, 2003: 45). It is a figure of speech containing an implied comparison, in which a word or phrase ordinarily and primarily used of one thing is applied to another and it is the most important figure of speech, pointing out resemblance but with no acknowledging word(Webster’s New World Dictionary). In 1980, Lakoff and Johnson first proposed the conceptual metaphor theory in their book Metaphors We Live By,

Metaphor is a systematic reflection from the specific conceptual field to the abstract conceptual field. In conceptual

metaphor theory, the metaphor is rather a matter of thought than a

matter of language, and it is a way of thinking and a means of

cognition(1980: 3).

Translation is to turn a speech text into the meaning of another speech text in the specific social historical and cultural background. Different language systems and cultural background form different readers' horizon of expectation and translation, which influence translator's choice, including semantic translation criteria and translation selection. The selection of translation results slowly promote infiltration and blend the evolution of culture and language, making the language more accurate, rich and the culture more filling and full (Wang Jun, 2007). Thus, metaphors, part of language, usually have meaning in their own culture, which is the very trouble for translation of metaphors.

2.1.2 Classification of metaphor

As for the classification of metaphors, Peter Newmark (2001), a famous contemporary British translator, divides them into six parts: dead metaphors, trite metaphors, stock or standard metaphors, adapted metaphors, recent metaphors and original metaphors. According to Newmark (2001), there are mainly three important factors relevant to the understanding and translating of metaphors: cultural factors, extra-cultural factors and individual perception.

A Chinese scholar, Su Dingfang (2000), thinks that individual perception actually belongs to extra-cultural factors. In my paper, I divide the metaphors in The Fortress Besieged into two parts: cultural metaphors and extra-cultural metaphors including universals and idiolects.

2.2 Theories for translation

2.2.1 The functional equivalence theory and the theory of relevance

Functional Equivalence Theory

emphasis that the functional equivalence of information instead of the direct formal eq uivalence in translation. The relationship between the target language receptor and the y target text should generally be equivalent to that between the source language recept or and the source text. Relevance theory seeks to explain the second method of communication: one that takes into account implicit inferences. It argues that the hearer/reader/audience will search for meaning in any given communication situation and having found meaning that fits their expectation of relevance, will stop processing.

As was mentioned above, the biggest problem of metaphor translation is how to deal with the cultural bound in metaphors.

The Fortress Besieged has been famous for its large number of metaphors. The researches concerned include the Discussion of the Metaphor Translation in the English Version of Fortress Besieged by Yang Yan (2011) and English translation of "Fortress Besieged" metaphor from Relevance Theory by Shen Zheng (2006). Among all the relevant researches, the functional equivalence theory and the theory of

relevance are used most frequently. This paper is going to analyze the translation of metaphors based on the adaption and selection theory of translation.

2.2.2 The adaption and selection theory of translation

The adaption and selection theory of translation is a macroscopic theory of translation, which is presented by Hu Gengshen (2008). Based on Darwin’s theory “survival of the fittest”, Hu thinks,

The nature of translation is that the translator adapts to the selective activities in the eco-environment of translation, with the rule of

multi-dimensional adaption and adaptive selection and the method of

adaptive selection in dimensions of language, culture, and communication

(Hu, 2008: 4-5).

In brief, it means that translation is adaption and selection. Here, the eco-environment of translation refers to the environment including the original text, original language, and target language form, which is actually an entirety of the connection and influence among the language, communication, society, writer, reader, and consigner.

According to this theory, the rule of translation is adaption in various dimension and adaptive selection; the way of translation is adaptive and

selective transformation in the dimensions of language, culture, and

communication. The evaluation standard of the version is the transferring

degree of multiple dimensions, the feedback of readers and the translator’s

quality; the best translation is the one that best integrates adaption and

selection (Zhang Hanqun, 2010:86-87).

Besides connecting translation to the eco-environment, there is another feature of the adaption and selection theory of translation, i.e., the translator is the center of translation activities, the adaption is translator’s selective adaption, and the selection is translator’s adaptive selection (Hu Gengshen,2004). This ensures the central position and the leading role of translators, improving their dominant role.

As for the application of this theory, many scholars have studied some English versions or Chinese versions of world famous works. Wan Guanghui (2004) makes a

comparison among the three Chinese versions of Uncle Tom’s Cabin in the visual angle of the adaption and selection theory of translation; Wang Xiaoyan (2004) analyzes the English Version of A Dream in Red Mansions from the perspective of translation as adaption and selection; Jiang Xia and Hou Chunju (2007) study the Blesing by Lu Xun with the adaption and selection theory of translation. Referring to these previous studies, this paper tries to analyze the translation of metaphors in The Fortress Besieged with this theory, to find out the translator s’ adaption and selection.

The above literature review shows that metaphor presents some special cultural features; thus, the translation of metaphors usually faces the dilemma: to keep the original taste or to give a new but similar translation. Different scholars have different opinions on the problem and this paper advocates the adaption and selection theory of translation.

Chapter 3 Translation of metaphors in The Fortress

Besieged

In The Fortress Besieged, the use of metaphors is a shining point of this novel. The most well-known metaphor might be the title: The Fortress Besieged. “M arriage is like a siege. Outside the city people want to rush in, and the men of the city want to rush out, so not able to board”(Jeanne, 2003: 133). The title is a metaphor of marriage.

Among all these humorous and vivid metaphors, there are some common ones which can easily be understood by foreigners, such as “天机”, but there are also others that are difficult to understand for foreigners, because they only exist in particular Chinese culture or can only be expressed by Chinese, such as “面子”“乌纱帽” “醋坛子”“眼红” and so on. Due to the important role that the metaphors play in the novel, these metaphors with Chinese style are indeed problematic for translators to deal with.

Most of the metaphors in the novel are well translated, both expressing the original meaning and retaining the special Chinese features. The adaption and selection theory of translation is helpful in analyzing the translation of metaphors in the English version of The Fortress Besieged in three aspects: the dimension of language, the dimension of culture and the dimension of communication.

3.1 Translation in the dimension of language

On the one hand, there are some words whose meaning is so different in English and Chinese that the effect of the metaphors can’t be shown to readers. Here, translators should consider language differences to choose a better way of translation. For example, in The Fortress Besieged, there is such a sentence:

“老大今天有信来,他们到了香港了。同走的几位朋友里,有人要在香港结婚,老大看了眼红,也要同时和孙小姐举行婚礼……” (钱钟书,1980: 71) English version:

“We had a letter from Hung-chien today. They’ve arrived in Hong Kong. One of his friends traveling with them decided to get married in Hong Kong. Hung-chien

went red-eyes with envy and wants to have the wedding ceremony with Miss Sun at the same time…” (Kelly, 2003: 83)

In Chinese, “red” usually means some happy things, so “happy-eyes” here is actually a metaphor, meaning that you envy others. While in English, “red” m eans something bad such as blood or violence. If the translator just translates it directly, westerners may get puzzled a lot. Why has he a red eye? Does he want to fight with him? On this occasion, the metaphor did nothing but confuse readers. Thus, here the translator adds an explaining after “red-eyes” instead of just translating it directly, and in the dimension of language, it is an adaptive selection.

But for this sentence, there is another opinion that in English, the word green actually means the same as Chinese red, so the “red-eyes” can be translated into “green-eyes”. In the regard of translation as adaption and selection, it seems that the “green-eyes” could be more easily accepted by foreign readers than “red-eyes” with envy, and the metaphor functions well, so the former is better than the latter.

On the other hand, there are also some words which have similar meaning in both English and Chinese. When these words appear in a Chinese metaphor, the best choice for translator is to choose free translation to keep the original flavor of articles. An example is given as follow:

“这两位小姐是谁,天机还不可泄露”(钱钟书,1980:17)。

“The identities of the two young women are he aven’s secret and not to be revealed.”(Kelly, 2003: 18)

Obviously, here the “h eaven’s secret” is another metaphor.In fact, in both Chinese and English, the “h e aven’s secret” means something that can’t be known easily and widely. Choosing literal translation here is very suitable for both the original flavor of article and the function of metaphor in English version. In dimension of language, the “h e aven’s secret” keeps not only th e meaning of Chinese version, but also the form of a metaphor. Thus, according to the adaption and selection theory of translation, the language factor of metaphors should be considered comprehensively. The wording is related a lot to the translational eco-environment.

3.2 Translation in the dimension of culture

“D ue to the differences in the nature and contents between the original language and the target language, translators need to not only pay attention to the transformation of the original language, but also need to adapt to the whole culture system of the original language and be concerned about the transformation of the cultural connotation between these two languages, to avoid misinterpreting the original text on a target language level” (Hu, 2008: 9).

Language is a form of expression of culture. Thus some words have their own cultural colors. In The Fortress Besieged, there are many metaphors which have particular Chinese Cultural meanings, like “醋”“乌纱帽”and so on. When these words are used in metaphors, translators need to pay special attention to their cultural factors to make sure that they will not make readers puzzled. This requires the translators to completely understand both the eco-environment of the original language and the eco-environment of the target language, so that both the meaning and the cultural characteristics are kept. Take the following sentence for example: “辛楣一肚皮的酒,几乎全成了酸醋……”(钱钟书,1980:45-46)

“The wine in Hisn-mei’s stomach turned into sour vinegar in his jealousy…”(Kelly, 2003: 51)

Here, “sour vinegar” is a word with a cultural color. In China, when one says that one sips sour vinegar, it means one feels jealous about something. This usually exists between lovers. In this sentence, it is also a metaphor, referring to Hisn-mei’s jealousy. While in English-speaking countries, people don’t know this particular use. If the translator just turns it to sour vinegar, foreign readers would doubt: “Why could the wine in his stomach turn into the sour vinegar?” Moreover, the metaphor may show a cross meaning. However, if the translator just translates it as “be jealous”, the interesting metaphor of the original language can not be seen by foreigners, and the text turns to be in a simple and straightforward way.

According to the adaption and selection theory of translation, translators should consider the translational eco-environment, and here, obviously, “sour

vinegar” means different in different cultural environments, so the translator uses literal translation plus annotation, so that both the cultural color and the meaning of the metaphor are retained.

However, if the culture factor in the metaphor is ignored by the translator, the translation will definitely turn to be a failure. Though most of the metaphors in The Fortress Besieged are successfully translated, some of the metaphors translated in The Fortress Besieged are widely regarded as failures. For example:

鸿渐恼到:“你说的好漂亮!为什么我当初告诉了你韩学愈的薪水比你高一级,你要气得掼乌纱帽不干呢?”(钱钟书,1980: 123)

“Oh, doesn’t that sound just beautiful?” said Hung-chien crossly, “When I first told you Han Hsueh-yu’s salary was a grade higher than yours, why did you get so mad you wanted to throw away your cone-shaped hat?”(Kelly, 2003: 144-145) Many foreigners knowing nothing about Chinese culture may feel pretty confused. What is a cone-shaped hat? What does it stand for? According to the adaption and selection theory of translation, this is a typical example that the translator ignores the translational eco-environment, because in ancient China, only government officers wear cone-shaped hats. It became a conventional metaphor to use “cone-shaped hats” to stand for the position of government officers, bu t English officers never wear a cone-shaped hat and they never use it to stand for the position of government officers. A metaphor, as a kind of mixture of culture and thought, can only be understood on the basis of a cultural background. So here, the translator ignores the cultural dimension, and makes the translation a little bit strange and puzzling. I n the dimension of culture in translation as adaption and selection, it’s better to add an explanation after the “cone-shaped hat” so that to keep both the metaphor and the original meaning.

At the same time, in this way, the English version can include more knowledge about Chinese culture, and it actually retains the style of the original article.

Inventory management Inventory Control On the so-called "inventory control", many people will interpret it as a "storage management", which is actually a big distortion. The traditional narrow view, mainly for warehouse inventory control of materials for inventory, data processing, storage, distribution, etc., through the implementation of anti-corrosion, temperature and humidity control means, to make the custody of the physical inventory to maintain optimum purposes. This is just a form of inventory control, or can be defined as the physical inventory control. How, then, from a broad perspective to understand inventory control? Inventory control should be related to the company's financial and operational objectives, in particular operating cash flow by optimizing the entire demand and supply chain management processes (DSCM), a reasonable set of ERP control strategy, and supported by appropriate information processing tools, tools to achieved in ensuring the timely delivery of the premise, as far as possible to reduce inventory levels, reducing inventory and obsolescence, the risk of devaluation. In this sense, the physical inventory control to achieve financial goals is just a means to control the entire inventory or just a necessary part; from the perspective of organizational functions, physical inventory control, warehouse management is mainly the responsibility of The broad inventory control is the demand and supply chain management, and the whole company's responsibility. Why until now many people's understanding of inventory control, limited physical inventory control? The following two reasons can not be ignored: First, our enterprises do not attach importance to inventory control. Especially those who benefit relatively good business, as long as there is money on the few people to consider the problem of inventory turnover. Inventory control is simply interpreted as warehouse management, unless the time to spend money, it may have been to see the inventory problem, and see the results are often very simple procurement to buy more, or did not do warehouse departments . Second, ERP misleading. Invoicing software is simple audacity to call it ERP, companies on their so-called ERP can reduce the number of inventory, inventory control, seems to rely on their small software can get.

Statistical hypothesis testing Adriana Albu,Loredana Ungureanu Politehnica University Timisoara,adrianaa@aut.utt.ro Politehnica University Timisoara,loredanau@aut.utt.ro Abstract In this article,we present a Bayesian statistical hypothesis testing inspection, testing theory and the process Mentioned hypothesis testing in the real world and the importance of, and successful test of the Notes. Key words Bayesian hypothesis testing; Bayesian inference;Test of significance Introduction A statistical hypothesis test is a method of making decisions using data, whether from a controlled experiment or an observational study (not controlled). In statistics, a result is called statistically significant if it is unlikely to have occurred by chance alone, according to a pre-determined threshold probability, the significance level. The phrase "test of significance" was coined by Ronald Fisher: "Critical tests of this kind may be called tests of significance, and when such tests are available we may discover whether a second sample is or is not significantly different from the first."[1] Hypothesis testing is sometimes called confirmatory data analysis, in contrast to exploratory data analysis. In frequency probability,these decisions are almost always made using null-hypothesis tests. These are tests that answer the question Assuming that the null hypothesis is true, what is the probability of observing a value for the test statistic that is at [] least as extreme as the value that was actually observed?) 2 More formally, they represent answers to the question, posed before undertaking an experiment,of what outcomes of the experiment would lead to rejection of the null hypothesis for a pre-specified probability of an incorrect rejection. One use of hypothesis testing is deciding whether experimental results contain enough information to cast doubt on conventional wisdom. Statistical hypothesis testing is a key technique of frequentist statistical inference. The Bayesian approach to hypothesis testing is to base rejection of the hypothesis on the posterior probability.[3][4]Other approaches to reaching a decision based on data are available via decision theory and optimal decisions. The critical region of a hypothesis test is the set of all outcomes which cause the null hypothesis to be rejected in favor of the alternative hypothesis. The critical region is usually denoted by the letter C. One-sample tests are appropriate when a sample is being compared to the population from a hypothesis. The population characteristics are known from theory or are calculated from the population.

索绪尔提出的语言符号任意性,近些年不断受到质疑,来自语言象似性的研究是最大的挑战。语言象似性理论是针对语言任意性理论提出来的,并在不断发展。象似性是当今认知语言学研究中的一个重要课题,是指语言符号的能指与所指之间的自然联系。本文以中国诗歌英译为例,探讨象似性在中国诗歌翻译中的应用,从以下几个部分阐述:(1)象似性的发展;(2)象似性的定义及分类;(3)中国诗歌翻译的标准;(4)象似性在中国诗歌翻译中的应用,主要从以下几个方面论述:声音象似、顺序象似、数量象似、对称象似方面。通过以上几个方面的探究,探讨了中国诗歌翻译中象似性原则的重大作用,在诗歌翻译过程中有助于得到“形神皆似”和“意美、音美、形美”的理想翻译效果。 关键词:象似性;诗歌;翻译

Abstract The arbitrariness theory of language signs proposed by Saussure is severely challenged by the study of language iconicity in recent years. The theory of iconicity is put forward in contrast to that of arbitrariness and has been developing gradually. Iconicity, which is an important subject in the research of cognitive linguistics, refers to a natural resemblance or analogy between the form of a sign and the object or concept. This thesis mainly discusses the application of the iconicity to the translation of Chinese poetry. The paper is better described from the following parts: (1) The development of the iconicity; (2) The definition and classification of the iconicity; (3) The standards of the translation to Chinese poetry; (4) The application of the iconicity to the translation of Chinese poetry, mainly discussed from the following aspects: sound iconicity, order iconicity, quantity iconicity, and symmetrical iconicity. Through in-depth discussion of the above aspects, this paper could come to the conclusion that the iconicity is very important in the translation of poetry. It is conductive to reach the ideal effect of “the similarity of form and spirit” and “the three beauties”. Key words: the iconicity; poetry; translation

农村社会养老保险的现状、问题与对策研究社会保障对国家安定和经济发展具有重要作用,“城乡二元经济”现象日益凸现,农村社会保障问题客观上成为社会保障体系中极为重要的部分。建立和完善农村社会保障制度关系到农村乃至整个社会的经济发展,并且对我国和谐社会的构建至关重要。我国农村社会保障制度尚不完善,因此有必要加强对农村独立社会保障制度的构建,尤其对农村养老制度的改革,建立健全我国社会保障体系。从户籍制度上看,我国居民养老问题可分为城市居民养老和农村居民养老两部分。对于城市居民我国政府已有比较充足的政策与资金投人,使他们在物质和精神方面都能得到较好地照顾,基本实现了社会化养老。而农村居民的养老问题却日益突出,成为摆在我国政府面前的一个紧迫而又棘手的问题。 一、我国农村社会养老保险的现状 关于农村养老,许多地区还没有建立农村社会养老体系,已建立的地区也存在很多缺陷,运行中出现了很多问题,所以完善农村社会养老保险体系的必要性与紧迫性日益体现出来。 (一)人口老龄化加快 随着城市化步伐的加快和农村劳动力的输出,越来越多的农村青壮年人口进入城市,年龄结构出现“两头大,中间小”的局面。中国农村进入老龄社会的步伐日渐加快。第五次人口普查显示:中国65岁以上的人中农村为5938万,占老龄总人口的67.4%.在这种严峻的现实面前,农村社会养老保险的徘徊显得极其不协调。 (二)农村社会养老保险覆盖面太小 中国拥有世界上数量最多的老年人口,且大多在农村。据统计,未纳入社会保障的农村人口还很多,截止2000年底,全国7400多万农村居民参加了保险,占全部农村居民的11.18%,占成年农村居民的11.59%.另外,据国家统计局统计,我国进城务工者已从改革开放之初的不到200万人增加到2003年的1.14亿人。而基本方案中没有体现出对留在农村的农民和进城务工的农民给予区别对待。进城务工的农民既没被纳入到农村养老保险体系中,也没被纳入到城市养老保险体系中,处于法律保护的空白地带。所以很有必要考虑这个特殊群体的养老保险问题。

江苏科技大学 2010年 03 月 28 日 均布荷载作用下挡土墙上的土压力 G. I. Shvetsov UDC 624.131.531.2 在前一篇文章中,我们确定了在只考虑填土自重的试验条件下,作用在挡土墙上的压力。这篇文章是第一篇文章的延续,致力于探索填土在外界均布荷载作用下,在挡土墙上产生的荷载问题,当在使用到先前得到的岩土平衡微分方程时,我们仅仅只改变边界条件,因为在这种情况下我们使用了与初始解决方案相同的原理。我们只提取那些与附加土压力有关的新成果,以及仅定义那些第一次出现的新符号。 在设计中,我们通常把作用在挡土墙上的土压力看作是呈三角形分布的,应力也被假设为是沿着墙体均匀连续分布的,但是实验结果并没有证实这一理论,试验表明表面

的附加应力随墙的高度变化并不均匀,而是从回填土顶部的最大值开始一直减小到其底部的最小值。因而,在M.C.瓦尔跟实验图的纵坐标的最大值超出理论计算值近两倍,最小值达到理论计算值的0.65倍,因为土压力的增加主要是在墙的上部,由此所得出的作用点比计算所得出的要高很多。 F.M.shikhiev 的理论里包含了关于挡土墙均布荷载作用下的二维应力折减问题,但是, 附加应力的分布对挡土墙受超荷载作用的效果问题的影响,并没有经过合适的理论研究。 虽然,不同研究人员所做的无数次试验已经确定,侧壁的扭曲效应更大,随着表面的粗糙程度而变大,随挡土墙的宽度和高度之比。在这篇文章里,我们将尽可能的填补这方面的空白。 在边界条件0q 0,y x ==的基础上,我们可以确定试验中作用在有侧向限制的填土上没有超荷的垂直应力。如果一个外附加应力作用在楔块表面上的强度为x σ,则在这种情况下,我们可以从已知条件得出,当y=0时,x q = x σ,既可以得出方程 ()()1 1 1/2/k x x w w h y h A q f m h A λσξ+-=+ (1) 其中 ,荷载分配的不均匀系数A 1和土的深度有关: ()() 111/1/k k A y h y h -= --- (2) 方程一是通用的,因为对于任意一种荷载分布x σ它都可以计算出任意土层中某一点的应力,因此便足以表明应力在X 轴方向的分布规律。当0=x σ时,方程便简化成相应的没有附加应力的形式,并且,当0=w f 而且0>x σ时,它反映了在考虑了附加应力条件时的二维问题,即: 11k x x h y q A h γσ?? =+- ??? (3) 满布在滑动楔上的均布荷载对我们已经知道的设计系数k ,n,和ξw 的值并没有影响,所以,计算作用在挡土墙上的正应力,切应力和总应力的表达式如下:

软件专业毕业论文外文文献中英文翻译 Object landscapes and lifetimes Tech nically, OOP is just about abstract data typing, in herita nee, and polymorphism, but other issues can be at least as importa nt. The rema in der of this sect ion will cover these issues. One of the most importa nt factors is the way objects are created and destroyed. Where is the data for an object and how is the lifetime of the object con trolled? There are differe nt philosophies at work here. C++ takes the approach that con trol of efficie ncy is the most importa nt issue, so it gives the programmer a choice. For maximum run-time speed, the storage and lifetime can be determined while the program is being written, by placing the objects on the stack (these are sometimes called automatic or scoped variables) or in the static storage area. This places a priority on the speed of storage allocatio n and release, and con trol of these can be very valuable in some situati ons. However, you sacrifice flexibility because you must know the exact qua ntity, lifetime, and type of objects while you're writing the program. If you are trying to solve a more general problem such as computer-aided desig n, warehouse man ageme nt, or air-traffic con trol, this is too restrictive. The sec ond approach is to create objects dyn amically in a pool of memory called the heap. In this approach, you don't know un til run-time how many objects you n eed, what their lifetime is, or what their exact type is. Those are determined at the spur of the moment while the program is runnin g. If you n eed a new object, you simply make it on the heap at the point that you n eed it. Because the storage is man aged dyn amically, at run-time, the amount of time required to allocate storage on the heap is sig ni fica ntly Ion ger tha n the time to create storage on the stack. (Creat ing storage on the stack is ofte n a si ngle assembly in structio n to move the stack poin ter dow n, and ano ther to move it back up.) The dyn amic approach makes the gen erally logical assumpti on that objects tend to be complicated, so the extra overhead of finding storage and releas ing that storage will not have an importa nt impact on the creati on of an object .In additi on, the greater flexibility is esse ntial to solve the gen eral program ming problem. Java uses the sec ond approach, exclusive". Every time you want to create an object, you use the new keyword to build a dyn amic in sta nee of that object. There's ano ther issue, however, and that's the lifetime of an object. With Ian guages that allow objects to be created on the stack, the compiler determines how long the object lasts and can automatically destroy it. However, if you create it on the heap the compiler has no kno wledge of its lifetime. In a Ianguage like C++, you must determine programmatically when to destroy the

译文: 中国上市公司偏好股权融资:非制度性因素 国际商业管理杂志 2009.10 摘要:本文把重点集中于中国上市公司的融资活动,运用西方融资理论,从非制度性因素方面,如融资成本、企业资产类型和质量、盈利能力、行业因素、股权结构因素、财务管理水平和社会文化,分析了中国上市公司倾向于股权融资的原因,并得出结论,股权融资偏好是上市公司根据中国融资环境的一种合理的选择。最后,针对公司的股权融资偏好提出了一些简明的建议。 关键词:股权融资,非制度性因素,融资成本 一、前言 中国上市公司偏好于股权融资,根据中国证券报的数据显示,1997年上市公司在资本市场的融资金额为95.87亿美元,其中股票融资的比例是72.5%,,在1998年和1999年比例分别为72.6%和72.3%,另一方面,债券融资的比例分别是17.8%,24.9%和25.1%。在这三年,股票融资的比例,在比中国发达的资本市场中却在下跌。以美国为例,当美国企业需要的资金在资本市场上,于股权融资相比他们宁愿选择债券融资。统计数据显示,从1970年到1985年,美日企业债券融资占了境外融资的91.7%,比股权融资高很多。阎达五等发现,大约中国3/4的上市公司偏好于股权融资。许多研究的学者认为,上市公司按以下顺序进行外部融资:第一个是股票基金,第二个是可转换债券,三是短期债务,最后一个是长期负债。许多研究人员通常分析我国上市公司偏好股权是由于我们国家的经济改革所带来的制度性因素。他们认为,上市公司的融资活动违背了西方古典融资理论只是因为那些制度性原因。例如,优序融资理论认为,当企业需要资金时,他们首先应该转向内部资金(折旧和留存收益),然后再进行债权融资,最后的选择是股票融资。在这篇文章中,笔者认为,这是因为具体的金融环境激活了企业的这种偏好,并结合了非制度性因素和西方金融理论,尝试解释股权融资偏好的原因。
