评价理论是由J.R. Martin提出的一个新理论，它是系统功能语言学人际意义的拓展。该文以评价理论中的态度系统为框架，深入剖析米歇尔·奥巴马12年助选演讲辞中的态度资源分布情况，旨在探究米歇尔如何巧妙运用演讲辞中的态度资源来表达其态度、立场和观点，从而成功达到助选演讲的目的。研究发现，米歇尔运用了大量显性的积极态度资源，并且判断资源远多于情感和鉴赏资源。通过对演讲语篇中态度资源的深入分析，人们能够更加深入地理解评价理论和演讲所揭示的人际意义。%Appraisal Theory, a new theory put forward by J. R. Martin, is based on the framework of the Systemic Functional Lin⁃guistics, which extends the interpersonal meaning. This paper applies the theoretical framework of attitude system in Appraisal Theory to deeply analyze the distribution of attitude resources in the speech, trying to explore how Michelle organizes the attitude resources in her speech to express her attitudes, stances and viewpoints in order to achieve the great success. It is found that mas⁃sive explicit positive attitudinal resources are used by the speaker and more attitudinal resources of Judgment are adopted than those of Affect and Appreciation. By analyzing attitudinal resources in the speech, people are able to further understand the Ap⁃praisal Theory and the interpersonal meaning the speech reveals.
