　　1. Introduction
　　Critical discourse analysis （CDA） has been drawing more and more linguists’ attention since its birth in the late 1970s. As a method of text analysis， it aims to explore the hidden ideology through analyzing the linguistic features and social background of the discourse， and further reveal the relationship between language， power and ideology.
　　When visiting countries in Central Asia and Southeast Asia in September and October of 2013， President Xi Jinping proposed the initiative to jointly build the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road， known as the Belt and Road Initiative， which has obtained the high attention of mass media at home and abroad.
　　The Guardian is a British national daily newspaper associated with a complex organizational structure and international multimedia presence and it is one of the highest circulation newspapers in the world， exerting influence on the Europe or even the world.
　　The objectives of the research are as follows： first， the research is conducted to be an initial attempt to analyze the topic of the Belt and Road Initiative from a critical perspective， and it will prove whether the application of CDA in the analysis of the related topic is effective or not. Second， the research will be used to prove the validity of the claim that language use in news discourse is value-laden and ideology-encoded.
　　2. Theoretical Framework
　　2.1 Fairclough’s Three-Dimensional Model
　　Fairclough proposes three stages in conducting critical discourse analysis： description， interpretation and explanation. He argues that all three stages are interconnected， each serving a particular purpose， all combined aims at uncovering the ideologies hidden in the discourse （1989）. Description is the stage which is concerned with the formal properties of the text， such as properties of vocabulary， textual structure. It is the first level of analysis， with text the object. Interpretation is concerned with the relationship between text and interaction， with seeing the text as a product of a process of production， and as a resource in the process of interpretation. Explanation is concerned with the relationship between interaction and social context，， with the social determination of the process of production and interpretation and their social effects. The conception of discourse and the three stages of critical discourse analysis are illustrated in the following figure in his book Discourse and Social Change in 1992 to describe formal properties of the text， to interpret the relationship between text and interaction， and to explain the relationship between interaction and social context.
