基于语料库的中美大学毕业典礼名人演讲评价资源的对比研究
[Abstract]:As one of the styles of public speaking, the college graduation speech carries the speaker's wishes and expectations for the graduates. In recent years, more and more universities choose to invite successful people from all walks of life to make graduation speeches, in order to share their own experience so as to maximize the impact of education on the graduates. In the past, the studies on college graduation speeches were mainly carried out from the perspectives of anthropology, stylistics and systemic functional grammar, but few researches have taken evaluation resources as the theoretical framework. At the same time, the use of evaluation resources to analyze celebrity speech research is rare. Therefore, the use of corpus-based evaluation resources to analyze the commencement of celebrity speeches in China and the United States has a certain significance. The evaluation resources, first put forward by James Martin in the 1990s, are mainly used to study the evaluation resources in discourse and to study the methods used by people to express their attitudes and positions. Thus establishing or strengthening the connection with the reader or listener. It consists of three subsystems: attitude, intervention and differential. This paper takes evaluation resources as the theoretical framework and makes a comparative study and analysis of celebrity speeches at university graduation ceremonies in China and the United States. The purpose of this study is to explore which evaluation resources speakers prefer to use to achieve the communicative function of the discourse and the communication with the listeners. At the same time, the research method of combining quantitative analysis and qualitative analysis is adopted. A comparative study shows that there are similarities in the use of evaluation resources in the two self-built corpus composed of 30 Chinese and American college graduation speeches, but there are also obvious differences in the use of evaluation resources. The main results are summarized as follows: there are a large number of evaluation resources in the speech words, and attitude, intervention and differential resources are used, but the frequency of each kind of resources is different. The similarities are as follows: both Chinese speakers and American speakers tend to use intervention resources, in which the distribution of conversational austerity resources tends to be consistent, and is mainly realized by denying and declaring resources; In attitude resources, the speakers of both countries make more use of judgment resources, and in the hierarchical difference system, the distribution of potential and focus resources are roughly the same and they are mainly realized through linguistic potential resources. In addition, the difference lies in: in the subsystem appreciation system of attitude resources, the use of the appreciation resources of Chinese speakers for the value of things or phenomena accounts for the vast majority, while the American speakers are more appreciative of things or phenomena. It shows that the speaker can draw the attention of the audience mainly by describing the value of things or phenomena, such as whether it is important or not, so as to achieve the function of education and persuasion. In the differential resources, Chinese speakers use more quantitative resources, while American speakers pay more attention to strengthening the use of resources. This study not only widens the perspective of college graduation speeches from the linguistic perspective, but also extends the applied research of evaluation resources to some extent, especially in Chinese. Therefore, it has certain realistic and theoretical significance. At the same time, this study can help readers to understand the unique features of commencement speeches, and thus play a guiding role in the appreciation and writing of public speeches.
