| Tóm tắt: | There have been many theses on discourse analysis, but few have been
discovered in the field of architecture in general, and in residential buildings
introduction articles in particular. Therefore, the thesis namely “A Discourse
Analysis of Residential Buildings Introduction Articles in English Magazines” is
carried out to fill that gap. What is focused in this thesis are layout, syntactic
features, lexical features and cohesion of Residential Buildings Introduction
Articles. A great number of 150 samples of RBIAs are collected carefully in famous
magazines from many countries such as: The USA, Australia, Canada, and New
Zealand. The data are in electronic versions downloaded from the Internet and
authorized magazine online stores.
In term of layout, a RIBA is comprised of two main parts: overview and
residential buildings details. There are six basic elements making a complete
overview of a RBIA. They are Main heading, Subheading, Byline, Illustrations,
Captions and Pull-quotes. This overview is a crucial part which features a RBIA.
The syntactic features examine passive voice, direct and indirect speeches,
inversion. We present such elements like location verbs, descriptive adjectives,
proper nouns in terms of lexical choices. In addition, cohesion is put into
consideration in which reference, ellipsis, conjunction and repetition are explored.
On the basis of the findings, the thesis sets out some implications and
suggestions for teaching and learning in both languages. The research result can be
useful for teachers, freelances and journalism students, as well as readers who are
fond of RBIAs. |
