系统功能语言学视角下国内新冠疫情类新闻语篇情态研究
|
Abstract:
本文从系统功能语法角度出发，对国内新冠疫情类新闻语篇的情态进行研究。从具有代表性的《中国日报》中选取30篇相关报道，采用语料库的方法，从情态类型，情态量值和情态取向三个维度进行分析，探索其情态特点和人际意义。研究发现，在国内新冠疫情类新闻语篇中可能性情态词和义务情态词占大多数，且多使用中低量值情态词，以隐性主观和隐性客观的方式展现出来。在具体语境下这些情态词可以保证新闻准确性与客观性，增强新闻说服力和可信度，达到礼貌原则和新闻工作者的自我保护的目的。
This paper is to investigate modality in domestic COVID-19 news discourse from the perspective of Systemic-Functional Grammar. All together 30 related news reports are collected from China Daily, the representative journal in China. A corpus-based research method is used to analyze the modality features, including type of modality, value of modality and orientation of modality, as well as interpersonal meanings in the news discourse. Findings indicate that in domestic COVID- 19 news discourse, modal words of probability and obligation account for a large part, and medium and low value modal words are more frequently used, all of which are inclined to present in an implicit subjective and objective way. In specific context, modal expressions are served to ensure the precision and objectivity of news reports, strengthen their persuasiveness and credibility, and realize politeness towards readers and self-protection of news editors.
