Abstract
In recent years, there exists a great number of rearch of different varieties of English, such as novels, news broadcast, scientific readings, etc. Nevertheless, what cannot bear any of our negligence is that stylistics on sitcoms---a new type of language material, is in great scarcity. Hence,the author of this thesis intends to investigate Friends, a popularly shown English language sitcom from the perspective of general stylistics in terms of linguistic description, textual analysis and contextual analysis respectively.

This thesis examines three randomly lected episodes by means of qualitative rearch
unfolding their stylistic features, namely some similarities as well as disparities among them in terms of stylistics. Through this rearch, the author has the following findings:At the phonological level, the swift tempo throughout the episodes and the frequent u of nitial stress play a vital role. At the graphological level, the frequent employment of commas, uniqueness in spelling and emotion and action markers phrad in brackets are the most distinct stylistic features.
At the lexical level, the employment of monosyllabic, informal, dynamic, colloquial, concrete
and fluff words is typical of the lected episodes. At the grammatical/syntactic level, the overwhelming employment of simple ntences and active voice is the most distinct feature of the lected episodes.So far as textual analysis is concerned, this thesis has penetrated mainly into the lay-out of the lected episodes, discovering that all the three episodes share the same text lay-out, namely the prelude, the body as well as the ending
scene.

We have discovered that the field of discour, the tenor of discour and the mode of discour are cloly associated with the stylistic features found in linguistic description. In addition, the author has also explored the lected episodes by emplo如ng two speech theories of vital importance---Speech Act Theory and Cooperative Principle respectively, finding that the conversations in the lected episodes are in light with the former while always violating the latter.

摘要
近些年来，英语文体学研究在学术界得到了蓬勃发展。在现在的语言学学术期刊上，我们可以经常看到大量的对所选文字资料--一比如小说、新闻、科技英语等的文体学分析。然
而，对于一种新生的语言材料--一情景喜剧的文体学分析还是少之又少。因此，本文作者尝试用普通文体学理论分析一部英语情景喜剧--一《老友记》(又名《六人行》)。本文选取该剧的三集进行文体特征分析，分别从语启‘学描述、语篇和语境因素的角度展开了论述。全文采用定性分析法对任意选取的三集进行了分析，揭示了其文体特征，深入地剖析了三集文体特征的相同点和不同点。本文作者得出的结论如下:在语音层面，我们发现快速的节奏和重音的处理为这三集中最明显的文体特征:在字位层面，我们发现逗号的频繁使用、拼写的独特性及括号中标注的动作是这三集的特色;
