28、ugh the whole process, and to all the gang in the biological sciences lab. you know who you are!this study was funded in part by a grant from the national science foundation (# 123-45-67890)，which permitted me to travel to seal colonies on two continents. the center for world mammal studies in tampa

29、, florida provided me with a ten-year report of the migratory patterns of the two colonies used in this study: my gratitude goes out to them as well.abstractthe purpose of this study was to research the effects on the tenement law of 1901一the "new law" n the equality of life for the reside

30、nts of tenements in new york city. the study contrasts this new law with the tenement law of 1869, or “old law： the works of jacob riis and ernest flagg, in addition to several prominent charity organizations, are examined as well. articles written at the time, photographs of tenements, and immigran

31、t stories are all examined. i conclude that there were significant changes in the equality of life as a result of a new idea of human life and its value.the information uncovered indicates that the changes were indeed far-reaching, past the tenements and into the lives of all new yorkers, and that t

50、the word "chinese" is used to refer to anyone of chinese descent on both shores of the pacific oceafl the usage is necessitated by the fact that the paper writes not only of those chinese who emigrated to america, but also of some chinese who were connected with emigration although they th

51、emselves might never have emigrated.-two other factors that i wanted, but was unable to include, were the cultural defects entrenched in the chinese emigrants and the indifferent policy of the qing government. few students of the chinese exclusion have compared the 19lh century chinese civilization

52、and american civilization, but i believe by instinct that each had its merits and demerits. while any man with any sense could have hoped that the two should learn from each other, the contrary happened. on the one hand, one-way assimilation was the order of the day. anything american was considered

53、 desirable and anything un-american strange. on the other hand, the chinese, well known for their inassimilability, clung to the old ways obstinately. as a chinese historian noted, “they were more chinese than the chinese?9 physically within each other's sight, the chinese and the americans seld
