During Qing Dynasty, the achievements of Yunnan poetry can never be ignored in the whole Chinese poetry circles of that time.

Among them, poetry of Yaji(gatherings for men of letters), a reflection of poets' activities in Kunming, is of the greatest value. In art, Dai Chun learned from the previous poets and became apt at both the ancient and modern poetry. He wrote poems of various styles with sincere emotion.

There are a lot of poems for singing natural bridges in Dali, China. For people in Midu county, natural bridges would always be associated to “Stone Rainbow Accompanied by the Moon”; for people in Longguan county(current Xiaguan county), those bridges bring them to the picture of “Natural Bridges in Falling Snow”. However, there is also the landscape of “Stone Rainbow alongside the Moon”, one of “Top Ten Landscapes in Yeyu” in Longguan. As a result, people often get confused between “Stone Rainbow Accompanied by the Moon” in Midu and “Stone Rainbow alongside the Moon”in Longguan. Natural bridges were found and given rich cultural implication by men of letters, among whom the Khitan poet Shu Lvjie in Yuan Dynasty firstly made the remark “Unfading Plum”. The natural landscape of “Natural Bridges in Falling Snow” gets integrated with the Buddhist legends and the abstract literary image “Unfading Plum”, forming a unity of the real scenery and the imaginary one, a unique literary landscape. Since Ming and Qing dynasties, literati have never stopped writing poems of chanting natural bridges' landscape “Unfading Plum”, but people do have some misunderstanding of “Unfading Plum”, which arouses scholars' interest to research. Consequently, the connotation of “Unfading Plum” is enriched and deepened.

The tendency of stage performance, unlike that of play writing, to a large extent, depends on the audience's preferences. Chinese traditional operas focused on the stage highlights bear a longer vitality. Among the stage performances of Xi Xiang Ji (Romance of the Western Chamber) in Ming and Qing Dynasties, excerpts of lyrical parts and boisterous parts were most popular. Re-creation of the opera stage takes the role of acting as the core and sets aside enough space for the show by refining the traditional opera formula. Furthermore, some marginal episodes are gradually separated from the whole opera and become separate excerpts.

The key concepts of narratological cognitivism, mind reading and theory of mind, carry the characteristics of “hypothesis” and “supposition”. They are effective in the analysis of the relationship between narration and consciousness. However, from the very beginning of its development, cognitive narratology reveals two limitations, one is the tendency to equate fictional minds with real minds and the other is the focus on character with the events subordinating to the character in text analysis. Therefore, it is suggested that “Novel reading is mind reading” should be accurately presented as “Novel reading is mental event reading”.

A statute is the carrier of the modern university system and the basis of university's internal administration. Based on the text analysis of statutes of 5 applied technology universities in Yunnan, it is found that all these universities lack the transformation consciousness during their construction; inconsistencies exist between school CPC party committee and administrators out of their division of power; academic institutions need to be improved; the concept of “joint administration” is absent; the voices of teachers and students fail to be heard; democratic management and supervision demands improvement. To solve these problems, it is proposed that applied technology universities should promote the optimization of internal administration in four aspects, namely identify their orientation and strengthen the construction of internal statutes, insist the leadership of CPC, implement the governance of professionalized president and transform from “teacher-based study” to “cooperative study” .

The fishery economy of Huguang Province experienced rapid development at the beginning of Ming Dynasty, and formed a structure of fishery production covering Dongting and Jianghan plain lake group,Yangtze River middle reaches and some tributaries such as Hanjiang River and Xiangjiang River. At the same time, trade in fresh fish and fish products formed a pattern of “County to Province to State” based on the preservation time and transportation distance. After the middle period of Ming Dynasty, fishery production and sales ceased to increase or even decreased while the fish market continued to grow.The reasons are the slow development of fishery production and breeding technology and the underdeveloped technology of fish products' preservation and transportation .
