2.1 The development of discourse analysis
  The progress of discourse analysis has changed people’s concept of linguistic. Discourse analysis has become a linguistic subject covering the research from the basic analysis of written and spoken language material to the semantic cohesion.The term “Discourse analysis” was first put up by Zellig Harris in the year of 1952 in his book Language. (Harris, 1952). In 1970s, discourse analysis was accepted as a effective approach to the study of linguistics especially to applied linguistics. About the concept meaning of discourse analysis, this paper acknowledges that discourse analysis refers to not only one specific analyze approach, contains not only one or a group of theory. (Huang, 2002). However, some theories still emerged during the development of discourse analysis. American famous discourse analysis scholar Schiffrin introduced 6 discourse analysis approach in his book Approach to Discourse. (Schiffrin, 1994 ). which are speech act theory, interactional sociolinguistics, ethnography of communication, pragmatics, conversation analysis,variation analysis.
