摘　　要：修辞结构理论（Rhetorical Structure Theory，RST）用于描述语言使用的结构，尤其是书面语篇的语篇结构。从系统功能语言学来看，修辞结构理论是一种用来描述语篇织体（texture）的语篇意义分析模式，一种体现语篇元功能的语义结构。另一方面，修辞结构理论是旨在实现作者的交际意图的功能性语篇结构理论。文章认为，（1）作者的交际意图与决定语篇元功能的情景语境具有内在的一致性；（2）情景语境与语篇的修辞结构之间也存在一种功能关系。文章以一篇民事判决书为材料，通过分析其情景语境，运用修辞结构理论的描述框架，对其修辞结构作出描述和阐释。By expounding on the inherent consistency between Rhetorical Structure Theory and Systemic Functional Linguistics,both of which are classified as function-oriented models of textual meaning analysis, the author describes and gives account to the rhetorical structure of a civil case judgment from the perspective of the functional relationship proposed between RST and the theory of context of situation in SFL. In this connection, the paper demonstrates that rhetorical structure is functionally related to the context of situation of text. And thus, the rhetorical structure of dvil case judgments performs a function in realizing the writer＇s intent in terms of field of discourse,tenor of discourse and mode of discourse in that with notion of context of situation, the analysis of the writer＇s intent can be conducted in concrete terms.
