News headlines are the first window of contact for people.With the rapid development of the Internet,online news has become the most convenient and fast channel for people to obtain news information.Among them,Today's Headline is the most widely used portal for contemporary online users,and its role in disseminating news is particularly prominent.This article uses crawler technology to crawl the headline client news headlines from March 2019 to May 2019 as the research corpus.It is analyzed from the perspectives of vocabulary,grammar,rhetoric,pragmatics,etc.In terms of vocabulary,we counted the high-frequency words in today 's headlines.After classification and analysis,we found that nouns and verbs are the most widely used in titles.In terms of grammar,news headlines mainly have three types of sentence structure: single sentence structure,combination style and component default structure.In the choice of sentence types,declarative sentences and interrogative sentences are the main types.In terms of rhetoric,the rhetorical strategies of news headlines are discussed from the following two parts : word-level rhetoric and figure-level rhetoric.Finally,combining the theory of relevance and analyzing the corpus from a pragmatic perspective,we find that title creation is a communication between the producer and the reader,and the key is to allow the reader to get the best correlation in the context.
