Passing the Torch
A bird's-eye view of Dalishu Village in Dandong, northeast China's Liaoning Province, on September 8
A village leader continues his father's work to develop a community By Ma Li & Li Jiaqi
It is an early autumn morning and Dalishu Village in Dandong, northeast China's Liaoning Province, basking in gentle sunshine, looks pretty as a picture. A sparkling river runs through the village, whose name means big pear trees, and in the background loom picturesque mountains covered with green terraces.
It is hard to imagine that Dalishu, where nearly 5,000 people live, was far from idyllic 40 years ago.
崔:“机关枪声”一样的高抬指演奏,立刻让我联想起刚出国留学时,您和其他演奏家最让我惊讶的特质,就是你们在弹奏中的“极弱音”(Pianissimo)。很明显这样的声音用高抬指和手指发力是无法达成的,可否为我们详细讲述您对于“极弱音”的心得体会?
中国特色社会主义进入新时代,党要团结带领人民进行伟大斗争、建设伟大工程、推进伟大事业、实现伟大梦想,对管党治党的总体效应提出了更高要求,迫切需要从系统化视角深入探索执政党建设的科学规律,全面总结管党治党的成功做法和新鲜经验,以系统视角和系统思维科学谋划推动全面从严治党向纵深发展的基本方略,把全面从严治党的思路举措搞得更加科学、更加严密、更加有效。
Given the natural condition of northeast China, where the winters are long and freezing, how to improve services for local tourism, especially during winter, the slack season for tourism, is a focus of Mao Zhengxin's work.
Mao Zhengxin is among those inspired by Mao Fengmei's work. He is the son of the former village leader and has taken up his father's mantle. The younger Mao had a steady job as a government offi cial but his father wanted him to return home to work for the progress of the village. Finally, he heeded the call and came back. He is now the Party committee secretary of the village, like his father, an elected post that he has won for three consecutive terms.
Mao's fi rst venture in his new capacity was to raise money, which was used by the villagers to buy millet and potatoes from other provinces and sell them on the way home for a profit. This generated a small nest egg to fund other ventures.
In 1985, new state policies to develop the rural economy and deepen reform and opening up gave a boost to trade. The county where the village is located had a stream of traders coming in regularly to do business. But it lacked accommodations and the visitors found it diffi cult to stay overnight. Mao sensed a business opportunity and started the county's fi rst hotel.
The location was chosen carefully and the fi ve-storied hotel was built near the train station, which guaranteed its rooms were full due to the stream of travelers arriving at the station. The hotel soon became a lucrative business.
Dalishu has become a demonstration village, showing how to accelerate rural economic development and improve farmers' income.
A modern agriculture exhibition center in Dalishu, an important part of the village's ecological tourism

NATION villagers began to build terraced fields to increase agricultural land. All able-bodied villagers took part in the work. In 10 years, they transformed 20 mountains, building roads, carving out terraced fi elds and constructing reservoirs. They planted various kinds of fruits and started orchard plantation on the mountains.
As the infrastructure of the village improved, Mao turned his attention to developing tourism. Besides sightseeing, visitors were offered local entertainment and the chance to pick fruit in the orchards. Recognized as a 4A scenic spot by authorities, with 5A being the top accolade, the village attracted nearly 360,000 tourists last year, generating more than 36 million yuan ($5 million) in tourism revenue.
The next project started in 1989 when the
“Mao helped everyone who had a problem. He was like a family member,” said Wang Shulan, a 69-year-old for whom Mao found a job in the village factory. After retirement, Wang used her savings to start a bistro. “Mao encouraged us to use our strength and energy to work so that we would have a good life,” she said. “He was wise and knew how to make money. His life would have been easier if he had not taken on the responsibilities that he had, but still he did.”
A ready shoulder
One initiative is a new exhibition center that has been built in the village to showcase its agricultural modernization. Here visitors can admire advanced agricultural technologies and a variety of trees. The 12,000-square-meter center has heating, staying warm in winter and offering visitors an entertaining activity in the form of fruit picking.
Mao passed away in 2014 but Dalishu villagers continue to remember his contribution.

In 1980, Mao became secretary of the Dalishu Branch of the Communist Party of China and the story of the village's turnaround is linked to his plans and efforts.
Coping with the cold
When reform and opening up started in 1978, it was still mired in poverty, and one villager, Mao Fengmei, a small-time entrepreneur with a knack for choosing the right businesses, became the first person in the community to amass an annual income of 10,000 yuan ($1,400), a princely sum at the time.
Che Shili was the black sheep of the village who spent 14 years in prison for manslaughter. When he was released, he was 37 and was resigned to becoming a social outcast. The 52-year-old recalled how Mao encouraged him to start afresh and helped him open a barbecue restaurant. Heartened by the success of the venture, Che opened a hotel next. Today, it is doing brisk business thanks to the fl ow of tourists. In addition, his family also sells souvenirs at tourist spots. One of their most popular products is a T-shirt with “Fighter” printed on it. “It denotes the spirit of our village,” Che said.
(2)优化地方环境执法监测机构。我国县级市在环境执法监测工作方面出现多部门监管现象,不仅浪费了大量行政资源,而且容易导致职能冲突,出现各种不良现象。因而,县级政府需要成立专门的环境执法监测机构,将其上司机关设为地方政府环境保护部门,实现垂直监管。在2016年9月22日,国务院发布了《关于省以下环保机构监测监察执法垂直管理制度改革试点工作的指导意见》,这也就更加需要地方政府予以部署。
Seeing nearby villages attract tourists with their hot springs, which traditionally are regarded as having medicinal properties due to the minerals dissolved in the water, Dalishu wants to follow suit. Geological experts have been invited to conduct surveys for hot springs and advise on how they could be used to expand tourism.
In addition, greenhouses have been built to grow blueberries and cherries, with the harvest expected to generate handsome profi ts.
根据东汤地热田招1、招3、招4、招5、招6、招10、招11地热井测温数据及断裂构造分布情况得出东汤地热田平面地温场分布图(图7)及剖面图(图8)。从图中可以看出东汤地热田中心位于多组断裂构造交会复合部位,这与前面的论述相一致。地热田整体呈NW-SE向分布,地热田南东部位温度明显高于北西部位温度,从温度分布可以推断热储从南东向北西由深到浅分布(图8)。
但在过去,卫星会发出两种不同的信号:一种是精确的军事信号,另一种是民用信号。这一想法的初衷是为了阻止敌军使用美国的技术攻击美国。在20世纪90年代中期,白宫要求兰德公司研究全球定位系统的通用政策,包括信号干扰,即所谓的“选择可用性”。
