Abstract To gain credibility and get acceptance from academic discourse communities, writers rely heavily on communicating with their audiences through publishing research articles (RAs). Analysing the generic structure of RAs can deal with issues relating to their language style and the type of linguistic features used. To Hyland, one of the valuable ways to study the pragmatic meaning of RAs and their generic pattern is through metadiscourse. Metadiscourse focuses on facilitating communication between writers and readers through meeting the expectations of potential readers. A crucial part of metadiscourse is its interactive dimension, which helps writers establish a sense of social engagement by guiding their readers though the text. Based on Hyland’s interpersonal model of metadiscourse, the present study explored the use of interactive metadiscourse features in the rhetorical moves of 40 RA introductions from two disciplines, namely applied linguistics, and chemistry. In sum, marked similarities and discipline-specific variations were found with regard to the frequency and function of the types of interactive markers in the main moves of both introductions. The findings can provide insights into the understanding of discipline- and rhetoric-specific conventions in writing the RA as a widely practised academic genre of communication.

引言中互动元语的修辞特有特征：学科意识案例

摘要为了获得信誉并获得学术界的认可，作家在很大程度上依靠通过发表研究文章（RA）与听众进行交流。分析RA的通用结构可以处理与其语言风格和所用语言特征类型有关的问题。对于海兰德而言，研究RA及其通用模式的实用意义的宝贵途径之一就是通过元话语。元话语致力于通过满足潜在读者的期望来促进作者与读者之间的交流。元话语的一个关键部分是它的互动性，它通过引导读者阅读文本来帮助作家建立一种社会参与感。基于Hyland的人际话语人际关系模型，本研究探讨了互动元话语功能在应用语言学和化学这两个学科的40种RA引言的修辞动作中的使用。总而言之，在两个引言的主要动作中，都发现了关于交互标记类型的频率和功能的明显相似性和特定学科的变化。这些发现可以为将RA写作为广泛实践的交流学术流派提供见解，从而有助于理解学科纪律和修辞习惯。在两个引言的主要动作中，在交互标记类型的频率和功能方面都发现了明显的相似性和特定学科的变化。这些发现可以为将RA写作为广泛实践的交流学术流派提供见解，从而有助于理解学科纪律和修辞习惯。在两个引言的主要动作中，在交互标记类型的频率和功能方面都发现了明显的相似性和特定学科的差异。这些发现可以为将RA写作为广泛实践的交流学术流派提供见解，从而有助于理解学科纪律和修辞习惯。
