Abstract:
Taking the great advancement of material civilization and spiritual civilization to human being, modernization faces the serious ecological crisis, the vacancy of industrial civilization and the loss of ethics of human being too. Ecology is a great cultural resource and theory treasury. It is undoubted that the ecological philosophy based on the ecological system provides a new theoretical perspective to the innovation of contemporary philosophy. Under the viewpoint of ecological civilization, the research object, the subjectobject relationship, the understanding paths, etc. are different from the popular viewpoints of contemporary philosophy, which displays the ecological turning of contemporary philosophy. This turning can widen our thoughts, make our thinking active, provide our new methods, and urge human being to concern ecology, protect environments, and maintain the stability and tranquility of the earth.

Abstract:
The ecological consciousness of Taoism is paid more and more attention at present. Taoism respects nature from the aspects of ecological ethic, and even regards heaven and earth as parents. From the aspects of ecological protection, Taoism insists that the relationship between human being and nature is not hostile. Instead, human being should recognize nature and help nature through selfdiscipline. From the aspect of ecological utilization, Taoism regards that human being should utilize the nature reasonably to maintain ecological harmony. The ecological philosophy of Taoism shows the characteristics that everything follows the nature.

Abstract:
Being trampled, burned, eaten and mowed, grass has survived generation after generation. It has been used for a symbol as humble life as well as a model of strong vitality. Grass is a very important life material and living environment for human being with the longest history. It is often used to describe primitive living status, low existence quality, and sometimes used for rough behavior or attitude. Therefore, people often use this term expressing humility of themselves. Green grass can bring up pleasant scenery, but the luxuriant green grass can strengthen the grief of leaving, reflect the desolation after flourishing. From the ecology habit of grass，people comprehend philosophy such as parents love can hardly be returned by children. People also place some ultimate hopes on grass, such as evergreen and immortality.

Abstract:
Yang Tong is a kind of raw material of plant dyestuff. For people who lived in south of Yangtze River, it is a tradition that they use the leaves of Yang Tong to dye the rice around the Cold Food Day and the Tombsweeping Day. Hai Tong is a famous foliage plant. In Ming dynasty, Hai Tong was often confused with Shan Gong (山矾，Symplocos sumuntia). But in Song Dynasty, Shan Gong means the other plant. Actually, the so called bark of Hai Tong is the bark of Ci Tong (Erythrina variegata), and has nothing to do with Hai Tong. Chou Wutong (Clerodendrum trichotomum) has a long florescence and a large inflorescence, which is one of the famous garden plants. Hutong, namely Huyang（Populus euphratica ? came from western regions. The resin of Hutong has medicinal values. Chai Tong is fabricated from Liu Yong’s Ci, and the so called flower of Chai Tong is just the flower of Pao Tong (Paulownia).

Abstract:
The culture of Ye began in the reign of Qihuangong, prince of the Qi State during the Spring and Autumn Period (770?76BC) and its development can be divided chronologically into such stages as the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods (770?21BC), the Cao Wei Period (220?65), the Sixteen States Period (340?39) and some periods after Sui and Tang Dynasties (581?). The Ye City during the Cao Wei Period, as the golden age of the culture of Ye, had a benchmarking significance in Chinese garden history for its large number of gardens, large scales, delicate designs and elegant environment of gardens. The patterns of axis symmetry and road network crossing firstly emerged in the gardening of the Ye City. Garden architectures at that time were well known for tall and majestic buildings yet with clear themes and characteristics. In particular, the firstly appearing construction model that combined garden and military defense, the largescale artificial landscape, the special decoration style and the introduction of Buddhism had significant effects on the later development of garden culture.

Abstract:
This paper carries out performance evaluation of collective forest reform through a perspective of forestland use change. Combining with questionnaire investigation, relevant suggestions are provided from the aspects of forestland protection, deforestation, and forestry technology. Results indicate that the area of young afforested land increases rapidly after the collective forest reform, which illustrates the reform arousing farmers enthusiasm on forestation. The forest land area decreases slightly, but bald woodland area increased. Those illustrate that deforestation area increased continuously after the reform, but the quality of forest resource improved. The increase of bamboo and nursery forest land area indicates that the forest and wood market become active after the reform, the demand of forest product assumes a growth trend.
