基于语料库的中英主流媒体对联合国气候变化大会的批评话语分析

A Corpus-Based Critical Discourse Analysis in Chinese and English Mainstream Media Regarding the United Nations Climate Change Conference

摘要: 目前，气候变化已对人类生存构成根本性的威胁。联合国气候变化大会是修正航向并加速解决气候危机的关键机会。本研究以中英主流媒体对联合国气候变化大会的报道为研究语料，采取批评话语分析和语料库技术相结合的研究方法，对比分析中英报刊在报道时采用的话语策略，揭示其背后隐藏的意识形态。研究发现，看似中立的全球性问题新闻报道，中英主流媒体对其报道的重点也各有差异，其背后隐藏的实则是价值观念和文化背景的差异。

Abstract: Currently, climate change poses a fundamental threat to human survival. The United Nations Climate Change Conference represents a crucial opportunity to correct course and accelerate the resolution of the climate crisis. This study utilizes a corpus-based critical discourse analysis to examine the coverage of the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Chinese and English mainstream media, employing a combination of critical discourse analysis and corpus techniques. By comparing the discourse strategies employed in the reports from both countries, the study aims to disclose the underlying ideologies. The findings reveal that seemingly neutral news reports on global issues exhibit differences in focus between mainstream Chinese and English media, which subtly reflect underlying variations in values and cultural backgrounds.
