The Chinese character “兵” is one of the basic words in Chinese military terms, with a high frequency of use and a strong power of word formation. A cognitive study of its semantic extension, in light of the metaphor and metonymy theories in cognitive semantics, reveals that its meaning extends and changes in a spokewise fashion interlaced by a concatenate pattern, in which metaphorical and metonymic mappings are interwoven, and that metaphor and metonymy are two cognitive approaches to its semantic extension. This individual case reflects the universal law of the semantic extension of military terms. 

China, mother of gardens, has many kinds of flowers with abundant resources，however, there are many and serious problems about flower names such as the same flower with different names and the different flowers called the same name on account of history, society and manmade reasons. Meanwhile, some flowers scientific names（Latin names）and common names in the publications are not in consistent with each other，which has caused great confusions in the floricultural market in our country. All above is favorable neither to the internationalization of our floricultural industry nor to the scientific research of horticultural workers. Based on the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature and International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants and taken Spiraea for example in which some flower names and Latin names are unfit for the rules of plant nomination, the rules obeyed when naming the flowers were raised, the confusion reasons of flower names were concluded, as well some measures to prevent the confusions were put forward.

The main purpose of this paper is to study the history of the translation into Chinese characters of the noble gasesnamely氦(helium), 氖(neon), 氩(argon), 氪(krypton), 氙(xenon) , and 氡(radon). In the late nineteenth century, when the translation of noble gases into Chinese script first began, most were translated according to the meanings of the western terms given by western missionaries—for instance for argon; and 曦 for neon. Then, in 1907, helium, argon and krypton were translated as氩,氦 and 氪 , respectively, under the radicalphonetic principles laid down in Huaxue Yuhui (A Vocabulary of Chemistry). After that, Chinese terms for the noble gases were almost always translated using the radicalphonetic characters developed by Chinese scholars and Western missionaries. The character 氖 (neon), however, was determined by the Joint Committee on Medical Terminology in 1908. It was not until 1933, that the Chinese character 氙 (xenon) was decided upon in the Chemical Forum of the Education Ministry. As to氡 (radon), this character was not determined until the meeting of the Committee on Chemical Nomenclature convened in 1937.
