Abstract
A headline, which plays a role of guidance and summary, is a very important part of a piece of news，and the application of rhetorical devices polishes it. This study analyzed the effects of the rhetoric on the whole piece of news from three categories: semantic devices, structural devices and phonological devices. Semantic devices comply with people’s behavior of expressing things in familiar，interesting or understandable ways; structural devices and phonological devices arouse readers’ attention with their special structure and beautiful rhythm. Above all, the principal purpose of figures of speech employed in news headlines is to lead readers to continue to read the whole story till they finish it.
Key words: news headlines; rhetorical devices；functions

Many experts and scholars have done significant research on this aspect because, to some extent，they believe the success of a news story depends on the quality of its headline. To satisfy the “ABC Principles” (accuracy, brevity and clarity), a headline has its own features such as the features of wording, grammar, discourse and rhetoric. On a basis of rhetorical devices, the writer analyses how a headline affects the whole piece of news.
