Abstract:

In order to investigate China's attitude toward the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, China Daily's reports on the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict from April 7, 2023 to May 16, 2024 are selected. And the corpus is combined with Critical Discourse Analysis, and the discourse-historical analysis method is applied to analyze the reports on the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict in China Daily in terms of frequency for thematic analysis, collocation for linguistic analysis. And the researchers explored the use of discourse strategies in terms of denotation strategy, predication strategy, argumentation strategy, and perspectivization strategies. The results of the study found that the reports emphasized people's security and humanitarian aid, and called for a peaceful resolution of the Israeli Palestinian Conflict; China has always adhered to a humanitarian stance in the Israeli Palestinian Conflict, and insisted on fairness and justice; China expressed its abhorrence of the war, and called for a peaceful resolution of the conflict through the two-state solution; and China has tried to play the role of an active image of maintaining peace in the international arena.
