Research finds that authoritative newspaper compared with local newspaper uses less personal referring expressions, among which most are vague ones. But the honorific of personal referring expressions appears more often in authoritative newspaper than local newspaper. In the perspective of demonstrative referring expressions’ using, local newspaper has more words referring to time than authoritative paper and both use nearly the same number of words referring to place. Then choice of referring expressions is related to the newspaper’s stance, inclination and positioning, as well as the report’s emphasis and prediction about readers’ knowledge.
