This study analyzes the discourse features of television news reports in Taiwan, including their organization and expression of information functions, and offers practical models for applying discourse-related knowledge to listening pedagogy. In terms of macro-structure, the results show four schematic units constituting the reports. First is the introduction, in which the news anchor discloses the main points of the report. This is followed by an interlay of accounts presented by the reporter and the interviewees, offering supporting details to the information presented in the introduction. Finally the news reports end with concluding remarks from the reporter. In terms of micro-structure, three categories of discourse function are identified within the reports, including frame markers to clarify positioning of information, transition markers to indicate links between information, and interpersonal markers to establish interaction among information, media, and the audience. This paper also incorporates aforementioned macro and micro-structure results into sample models for listening pedagogy, aimed at familiarizing students with discourse features associated with television news and ultimately fostering better comprehension of news content. The findings reveal the composition principles of Chinese-language television news, with empirical evidence for the value of discourse research on listening pedagogy. (本文於2020.03重新修訂) |
