摘要
随着中国经济的迅速发展和综合国力的不断增强，在全球化的今天中国发挥着越来越重要的作用。科学地扮演好在国际事务中的角色，处理好与各国之间的关系，尤其是与美国这个超级大国之间的关系，已变得日益重要。本文通过采用跨文化交际理论和大量的鲜活事例，研究和探讨在中美高层外事活动这一特殊语境中，如何基于礼貌原则，充分利用跨文化交际中的言语幽默效果，维护祖国的利益以及自己和他人的面子。
礼貌原则是语用学中的一个重要理论，其核心是面子理论，中西学者对其进行了大量的研究：Leech提出了具有重大影响的礼貌原则，Scollon的面子论以及Ting-Toomey的面子协商论，都为礼貌原则的研究和发展起到了重要意义；中国学者顾曰国提出了具有中国文化特色的礼貌原则，徐盛桓考虑到了第三方的问题；在研究总结这些理论基础上，笔者从文化语境的角度重新总结完善了礼貌原则，并指出礼貌语言的使用和参与者的地位、关系，交际场合等语境因素密切相关，从而决定如何使用礼貌语言。
幽默是一种常见且具有鲜明文化特征的艺术形式，它通过诙谐或是讽刺的语言形式反映人类文明智慧,使人们在感到愉悦的同时深受启迪。幽默作为语言的精华组成部分,对其进行研究在当今已成为一门独立的学科。鉴于语言和文化之间的密切联系,幽默是文化的特殊载体。因此,隐藏于汉英幽默中的,正是不易为人所了解的文化特性与独特内涵。那么，如何更好的理解中美幽默，对于更好的实现跨文化交际，尤其对于外交事务，具有尤为重要的作用。然而我国对幽默研究还缺乏系统性，更多的是关注幽默现象，主要集中在对文学作品，影视作品中幽默现象和语言的解释和分析，也有人从社会语用方面探讨了它在商务交际中的功能(刘乃实，熊学亮)。但幽默的交际功能的进一步研究应结合交际者的地位、交际场所等语境因素展开。
因此本文从跨文化语用学这一角度出发,首先在第一章阐述了本文的研究背景与现实意义， 第二章系统的回顾了中西对礼貌原则的研究现状，并结合文化差异以及语境因素总结提出了自己对礼貌面子理论的看法，第三章首先探讨了中西方学者对于幽默的研究，并比较汉英幽默的相同和不同之处,探讨总结导致汉英幽默差异产生的深层次原因；第四章通过中美两国高层外事交往活动的具体实例，论证幽默是如何在外事活动中得以运用并起到了减少交际压力,巧妙批评,反驳对手等的实际作用。第五章是全文的总结，并希望帮助人们更好地欣赏源于异国文化的幽默, 进而为跨文化的幽默运用提供实践指导。
