Metaphors in Headlines of Chinese News Zhou Tong Supervised by Dr. Sun Ya Submitted to the School of Foreign Languages In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement for The Degree of Bachelor of Arts in English Beijing June 2006 摘要 西方对隐喻比较系统的研究可以追溯到亚里士多德。在上世纪八十年代，莱考夫和约翰逊（Lakoff Johnson）合著出版的《我们赖以生存的隐喻》（Metaphors We Live By）开辟了一条全新的从认知语言学角度来研究隐喻的途径。而同时，新闻语言作为一种特殊的语言，具有多种文体的特点和诸多研究价值。新闻标题是新闻不可分割的组成部分，它浓缩了新闻语言的精华。本文以中国报刊新闻标题为研究对象，采取莱考夫和约翰逊的分类模式对隐喻进行分类，从而研究中国报刊新闻标题中的隐喻现象。文章在第一章里简要地回顾了隐喻研究的历史。第二章中采用了莱考夫和约翰逊对隐喻的分类模式对中国报刊新闻中出现的隐喻进行分类。结论部分为第三章。希望读者阅读本文后能对隐喻现象有新的认识。 关键词：隐喻；新闻标题；空间隐喻；实体隐喻；结构隐喻 Abstract Metaphor has been an object of study since Aristotle. There have been many different approaches to metaphor: the Aristotelian approach, the traditional linguistic approach, the pragmatic approach, and the interactionist approach. However, Lakoff and Johnson published “Metaphors We Live By”, which indicated the beginning of the cognitive approach to metaphor, in 1980. Meanwhile, journalistic language, as a special language, owns the characteristic of many styles and a high value of research. The news headline, as the essentiality of journalistic language, is an important part of news, and cannot be parted. This paper applies Lakoff Johnson’s model of classification to analyze the phenomenon of metaphor in headline of Chinese news by classifying metaphor. In Chapter One, a brief review of four pre-cognitive approaches to metaphor will be made. Chapter Two will classify metaphors in headlines of Chinese news based on the theory of Lakoff and Johnson, and then a conclusion will be made in Chapter Three. This paper intends to focus on the phenomenon appearing in headlines of Chinese news. By doing this, the paper expects the reader would have a new perspective on metaphor. Key Words: metaphor; headlines of news; orientational metaphor; ontological metaphor; structural metaphor Acknowledgements First of all, I would like to give my heartfelt thanks to my supervisor Dr. Sun Ya, without
