Abstract:

Using Chinese research papers from the CSSCI journal database from 2001 to 2018 as samples, this paper aims to inquire into the research focus and trends of business English in China. It conducts a quantitative analysis of the relationship between research status and focus in the framework of co-word analysis and data visualization. The results indicate that: (1) the amount of research in the field of business English reached its peak in 2011 and then declined steadily; and (2) the domestic research covers four areas, i.e., construction and initiation of business English majors in accordance with national standards for business English majors, business English studies based on corpora methods, talents training models of high vocational school students based on need analysis theory, and business English teaching and reform in interdisciplinary perspectives.

Keywords: business English; research focus; co-word and visualization analysis; English for Specific Purposes; academic research

摘要:

本文选取2001—2018年间CSSCI期刊及中文核心类文献数据库中以“商务英语”为主题的相关文章为研究对象,采用Bicomb共词可视化方法和统计分析软件SPSS 22.0对样本进行量化分析,通过相似矩阵和聚类谱系图分析这18年间商务英语专业的研究重点和热点。研究表明:(1)国内商务英语相关研究的论文数量整体呈驼峰型,2011年的载文量达到峰值,而后明显下降;(2)国内商务英语研究热点集中在4个方面:《国家标准》下商务英语专业的创新,基于语料库的商务英语研究,基于需求分析的高职商务英语人才培养模式研究和跨学科视角下商务英语教学设计和改革。本研究旨在明确商务英语研究的热点和存在的问题,为商务英语的语言本体研究和跨学科融合研究指明方向。
