1 Introduction
Since the 1960s, great interest has evoked in cohesion. Many linguists have devoted themselves to the research on cohesion from different aspects and have made great achievements. In the construction and development of cohesion, Halliday and Hasan are unanimously regarded as the pioneers and the prominent contributors. Many other researchers home and abroad follow their steps to further study into the area. Some scholars try to modify and enlarge the framework of cohesion to make it perfect in explanation ( Hasan, 1985; Hoey, 1991; Hu, 1994; Zhang, 2017). Some scholars focus on cohesion in literary works. However, few have studied cohesion in English Advertisement. Consequently the aim of this thesis is to see how cohesion theory is employed in English Advertisement and what characteristic will English Advertisement present on the basis of Halliday and Hasan’s cohesion theory.
According to Halliday and Hasan, cohesion can be split into structural and non-structural cohesion. But in this paper the writer will only focus on the non-structural cohesion, namely the lexicogrammatical cohesion which includes grammatical and lexical cohesion.
