1 Introduction
As a type of public discourse, news report is produced under certain social conditions and background. While reporting the facts that happen recently by using the words properly, its primary function is to make the reader know well about the events that happened. There are a thousand Hamlets in a thousand people’s eyes.(Shakespeare) Also a single event can be quite differently reported to express the different points and attitudes of reporters. As a result, readers from different social background will produce quite different reactions about the facts. In this case, news report is aimed to convey the facts from an objective angle. To ensure a successful report with such a purpose, it can not avoid using fuzzy language.
