摘　　要：本研究以互文性为理论框架,运用语料库与定量统计方法,对比分析中美500强上市企业年报文本的互文性特征,试图发现年报互文性特征与企业绩效之间的相关性。研究发现:1)中美总裁致辞在文本特征层面存在差异,中文总裁致辞篇幅较短,少用被动结构和第一人称单复数代词;2)中美年报总裁致辞在互文性特征层面存在共性与差异,均使用直接引语,披露绩效信息存在显著差异,但披露前瞻性信息未见显著差异,两类年报存在语块重复,直接引语的数量与侧重点不同。本研究对商务话语研究、商务英语教学和企业传播具有一定启示。This study investigated and compared the intertextuality and interdiscursivity of annual reports published by Chinese and American listed companies from World Top 500 with a corpus-based quantitative analysis approach. It tried to figure out whether the intertextuality and interdiscursivity of annual reports have any impact on the corporate financial performance. The study found that 1 ） the textual features of Chinese and American CEO statements are different. The length of Chinese CEO statement is relatively shorter and the number of passive sentence structures and first-person pronouns are smaller than American CEO statement; 2） intertextuality and interdiscursivity between Chinese and American CEO statements share similarities and differences. There are significant differences on performance disclosure but no significant differences on forward-looking information disclosure in the use of explicit references. Lexical chunk repetition was discovered in both types of statements while the number and emphasis of explicit references is different ; 3 ） some inter-textual and inter-discursive features of CEO statements have impacts on the corporate performance. The amount of performance and forward-looking information in Chinese CEO statement negatively correlated with the rate of return on equity （ ROE ） and earnings per share （ EPS ） and the frequency of reporting verbs in English statements negatively correlated with EPS. Other inter-textual features did not show any significant impact. This study has implication for business discourse analysis, business English teaching and corporate communication.
