【摘要】 目前基于评价理论的新闻语篇分析大多是基于单一来源的语料数据的质性或定量研究,很难从中得出一个具有普适性的定性结论。鉴于此,本文采用基于语料库的混合研究方法对比分析了120篇涉及RCEP的中国和美国新闻报道,旨在探索语言资源的态度意义。本文使用3种分析工具进行语料标注和态度分析。UAM Corpus Tool 3.3用于标注语料并获取描述性统计数据;KH Coder 3用于分析态度资源所体现的语义主题;SPSS 26.0用于检验情感、判定和鉴赏资源在中、美新闻报道中的极性和态度子范畴(情感、判定和鉴赏)分布差异。本研究发现,中、美新闻报道都呈现同一特征:鉴赏资源占比最大,判定资源占比最小。这说明中、美都更关注RCEP的社会影响。但是,中、美新闻报道在极性分布上存在较大差异。整体上,中国新闻报道以正向语言资源为主,而美国新闻报道以负向语言资源为主。具体分析发现,中国新闻媒体倾向于使用正向鉴赏与判定语言资源;而美国新闻媒体倾向于使用负向鉴赏和判定语言资源。这说明中国更重视RCEP为中国及其他成员国带来的社会价值,而美国倾向于把RCEP视为对其霸权的挑战。中国视RCEP为全球实现快速发展的机遇,而美国更关注RCEP妨碍其在亚太地区的战略部署。语料库语言学的应用有助于促进评价理论特别是态度系统的应用研究和发展。此外,本研究也有益于提高人们以批判性视角进行新闻报道的撰写和鉴赏的能力。

【Abstract】 A large number of prior studies have analyzed news reports based on the Appraisal Theory,but most of them have employed either qualitative or quantitative approaches based on text data from a single source-either from China or western countries,which made it hard to draw a generalizable qualitative conclusion.In view of the above deficiency,this study employed a mixed-method to conduct a contrastive analysis of120 news reports from both China’s and American news media,aiming to reveal their distinct attitudinal meanings.Three computer programs were used for text annotation and attitudinal analysis.UAM Corpus Tool 3.3 was used for attitude annotation and descriptive statistics.KH Coder 3 was used to reveal the semantic theme represented by the attitude resources.SPSS 26.0 was employed to test the differences between China’s news reports and their American counterparts with respect of polarity and subcategories of Attitude-Affect,Judgement and Appreciation.This study found that in both China’s and American news reports,Appreciation resources were the most commonly used among the three subcategories of Attitude,and Judgement accounted for the least.It showed that both China’s and American media paid more attention to the social influences of RCEP.However,there was a significant difference between China’s and American news reports in polarity distribution.In general,China’s news reports were largely dominated by positive linguistic resources,while the American ones by the negative.Specifically,China’s media favored positive Appreciation and Judgment resources in their reports,while the American media preferred negative Appreciation and Judgment resources.This showed that China attached greater importance to the social benefits that RCEP brings to China and other member states,while America tended to regard RCEP as a hindrance to its development.In other words,the distribution of attitudinal linguistic resources suggested that RCEP was viewed in China as an opportunity for global development,while the US focused on its potential negative externality.The application of Corpus Linguistics was conducive to promoting the applied research and development of Appraisal Theory,particularly the Attitude System.Moreover,the research findings may help English reporters compose and appreciate news reports from a critical perspective.
