3、ratively full development both in theory and practice, has by far acquired the status of a international `lingua franca in almost every field of study, for on the one hand the success of the English language along with its frequent use has turned it into a vehicle for international communication; on

4、 the other hand the orientation of linguistic studies toward language as communication in social contexts has largely promoted the dignity of ESP studies in the theory that English in different fields bears particular features and calls for special techniques.Business English is an area of ESP that

5、is relatively poorly researched. Rigorous linguistic analysis is fragmented and is more frequently based on the written forms of language such as correspondence, annual reports, and articles in business journals. Some kind of analysis has been carried out with respect to the language of meetings and

6、 discussions. With the fulfillment of the reform and opening policy in China, especially since China joined WTO in 1997, the communications between China and the abroad have been strengthened. Business English is an effective tool in fulfilling international cooperation and communication exist in h

While students in colleges or universities gain their knowledge of business largely from books and, as a result, such knowledge wi

9、tracted increasing interest and awareness. Business English courses are offered by many language schools worldwide. Yet despite this enormous interest,Business English is an area often neglected by linguistic researchers, who prefer to work on other- more easily defined- areas of special English.

10、 BE ( Business English ) is currently the fastest growing form of ESP. It shares the important elements of needs analysis, syllabus design, course design, and materials selection and development which are common to all fields of work in ESP. So it must be seen in the overall context of ESP Busines

11、s English implies the definition of a specific language corpus and emphasis on particular kinds of communication in a specific context. However, Business English differs from other varieties of ESP in that it is often a mix of specific content (relating to a particular job area or industry), and gen

12、eral content (relating to general ability to communicate more effectively, albeit in business situation). In actual use, the previous concerns on Business English are effective communication and negotiation, technical and business writing, work place idioms and vocabulary, and business customs

15、valence is justified. The present thesis, basing on discourse analysis, studies Business English-Chinese translation and answers how the translation strategy will be affected. It aims at making a tentative study on the relationship between Business English discourse analysis and translation str

By analyzing Business English discourse features, the corresponding translation strategies can be concluded. What is also analyzed are from t

48、 The present thesis aims to make a tentative study on the relationship between discourse analysis and the translation strategy of Business English, so as to offer an overall perspective to people possibly concerned, and to lead them to consciously apply corresponding rules to solve some problems

49、 arising from Business English translation practice. Business English is an effective tool in fulfilling international cooperation and communication exit in hi-tech and trade economy fields. Students in colleges or universities gain their knowledge of Business English largely from books and,

50、 as a result, such knowledge will be incomplete and theoretical rather than practical. In the last two decades, Business English has attracted increasing interest and awareness Yet despite this enormous interest, Business English is an area often neglected by linguistic researchers, who prefer t

51、o work on other-more easily defined-areas of special English. In actual use, the previous concerns on Business English are most effective communication and negotiation, technical and business writing, workplace idioms and vocabulary, and business customs and culture. When Business English tra

52、nslation is concerned, more discussion is about how different cultures make effects on translation. With the translation theory, contrastive linguistics and discourse analysis growing immensely in the Iast twenty years or so, translation research has been given a new perspective (discourse analy

53、sis). Business English has its specific characteristics in its discourse, which attract us to pay attentions to seek the links between discourse analysis and translation strategy, and a tentative study on the relationship between Business English discourse analysis and translation strategy is jus

54、tified. For the convenience of presentation, the organization of this thesis goes as the following. A general description of the concept of `discourse and `discourse analysis, and the situation of the discourse analysis studies at home and abroad, reveals and justifies the research objective

55、 as well as the reason for the research into Business English translation outlined here, i.e. to deal with the question of `Why the study on discourse analysis. All the factors in translation and the translation processes are all given descriptions on the basis of discourse. Meanwhile, representa

56、tive advocators/scholars, their works combined with the characteristics are taken into account and correspondingly illustrated in a possibly detailed way. The links between translation and discourse analysis explains why we should introduce discourse analysis into Business English translation stu

57、dies. The author collects lots of examples in practical problems and offers possible solutions accordingly. Under the consideration of different communicative situation, different examples are described. This will be an aid in practical Business English translation. In general, this the

58、sis is intended to be informative, and practical to as many people as possibly being involved in this area. Whats more, some practical questions and modes are supplied, and are expected to be useful and valuable to whoever lays his fingers on it and help the author obtain the original intention t

59、o supply a gap in the world of Business English translation studies. Chapter 2 Discourse Analysis 2.1Its History and Developments 2.1.1Concepts of `Discourse and `Text The concepts of `Discourse and `text aroused much disputes among scholars. Some classified `discourse and `text into bei

60、ng oral and written, while others disagreed with that. Translation Terminology gives the explanations as the following, `Discourse is a connected series of utterances or a text. In contrast to language itself, which is the raw material involved. discourse defines an interaction between two su

61、bjects (the author and the target audience) that takes place under specific circumstances and with a specific objective. In oral discourse, the author and the target audience are each in the presence of the other, and find themselves in the same communication situation. In written discourse, pro

62、duction and reception almost always take place at two different times and places. Both the author and the addressee are mental representations rather than concrete realities. A text seen from the point of view is of the conditions under which it was produced and its reception in a given socio-cul

63、tural context. Text is a written document of variable length that constitutes a whole when viewed from a semantic perspective.” In a penetrating study of ideological structures in discourse, Kress(1985:27-28) defines `discourse as `a mode of talking. In essence it points to the fact that

64、 social institutions produce specific ways or modes of talking about certain areas of social life--- That is, in relation to certain areas of social life that are of particular si娜f(wàn)icance to a social institution, it will produce a set of statements about that area that will define, describe, del

65、imit, and circumscribe what it is possible and impossible to say with respect to it, and how it is to be talked about. Different definitions have been given from different perspectives. In this essay, discourse is seen as a concept beyond text in an abstract sense and it consists of one or m

66、ore texts. Its a `hyponym of text. 2.1.2Concept of `Discourse Analysis Linguistic communication always appears in textual form ( Wilss 1982:112 ).The text can only be understood and analyzed within and in relation to the framework of the communicative act-in-situation. Discourse analysis can be defined as the analysis of texts beyond and `above the sentence-the attempt to find linguistic regularities in discourse. Th
