Abstract

Abstract

The study tries to construct the multi-stratal analysis pattern of ecological discourse by analyzing the ideology,context and discourse levels from the discourse delivered by China’s minister of environment protection from the systemic functional perspective.The research finds that the ideology in the speech accords with Marxism’s conception of ecological development and that the benefits of growth are broadly shared.The language bears typical political features in which grammatical metaphors, declarative sentences, especially imperative sentences are widely used.Thematic progression, reference, lexical cohesion and conjunction together promote cohesion.The multi-stratal analysis pattern helps to analyze the cognitive and functional generation mechanism of ecological discourse and enrich the ecological linguistics theory.
