摘要：
This study focuses on the conceptual metaphors in news reports about U.S.-China trade war. With data retrieved from the New York Times in America and the Global Times in China. The research questions ask: (1). What are the most frequently used conceptual metaphors respectively in China and U.S. news report on the U.S.-China trade war? (2). How are the different ideologies constructed through metaphorical discourses? (3). Do the conceptual metaphors in the Chinese and English data show consistent or discrepant mapping process? The results show that the metaphors with human being concepts as the source domain take up a larger proportion in Chinese data than in English. Two approaches of ideologies construction are presented within the framework of Critical Metaphor Analysis and attributed to different discourse goals the two newspapers plan to achieve. The mapping processes in English and Chinese data are consistent. The working mechanisms of metaphorical discourse in the news reports are discussed to reveal the reason of continuing ideological conflicts and confrontations between China and the U.S.
