Abstract

On the basis of the three metafunctions in Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL)- experiential, interpersonal and textual, the paper makes an analysis of the current news “ROK, DPRK Agree to Defuse Tension after Talks†on China Daily. The paper finds out that the political news has unique features in terms of experiential, interpersonal and textual function. Objectivity and accuracy of network news is realized via transitivity systems and third person pronoun in the news.
