Lin Lezhi(Young John Allen)sponsored Chinese Globe Magazine has a large number of current affairs reports,in these current affairs reports,"American Affair Column" of the United States reports,rich in content,large number and continuity is better,these reports are the dissemination of American information,shaping the image of the United States an important carrier.Current affairs reports generally have concise language,short genres,poor coherence between each other,relying on individual reports itself is difficult to form effective research.Through quantitative means,the "American Report" is summarized according to the category,and the classified reports are analyzed statistically,so as to realize the systematic understanding of the political situation in the United States,economic development,application of science and technology,etc."Domestic politics" reports provide readers with details of the presidential election system,and they also reflect the U.S.policy of caressing Indians.Reports of the economy show the changing economy and the growing boom in U.S.export trade.The "science and technology" report reveals to us the fruitful achievements of the United States in industrialization after the Second Industrial Revolution."American Report" there are many countries in the news of exchanges,accounting for more of the coverage of China,Britain and Russia.The news reports related to China reflect the problem of Chinese workers and study abroad between China and the United States.Combined with the international background,it is also possible to find that China-U.S.relations have a certain impact on the changes in the content of U.S.reports.The news about the diplomatic relations with Britain and Russia in the US report reflects the very different attitude of the US towards the two,in short,the US sees the UK as a model of transcendence and Russia as a target to guard against,and this tendency to report also influences China's diplomatic attitude to some extent.The U.S.report is also dedicated to overturning China's original self-view of high-mindedness,and then implicitly transmitting the image of the great power of American democratic civilization to the audience.In its reporting,the United States uses the backwardness of Chinese society to illustrate the progress of American society and prompt Chinese readers to look at their own national situation.Modern Chinese society is in a period of great change,the democratic politics of the United States,the developed economy,advanced science and technology all arouse China's interest.The input of these Western values has led to the gradual germination of the new thought of changing the law in modern China,the changing Chinese social customs and the development of industry and commerce.In short,this article takes the report of "American Affairs Column" in the Chinese Globe Magazine as the research object,can show the changes of American society,and construct an American image that the missionaries wanted to Chinese understand at that time.This image may not be objective enough,but it is an important channel for readers to learn about the United States and learn about it.
