One reason that motivates the study is that an analysis of Mike Wallace’s TV news interview style with a pragmatic approach can assist Chinese hosts in English TV news interviews with improvement of their professional quality in terms of the use of inquiry language(提問語言的運(yùn)用) and master of lingual interactivity（言語互動能力的把握）.
