This paper takes a Discourse Politeness Theory perspective in looking at the refusal behavior to the requests of others as recorded in dialogue from Chinese and Japanese television dramas,which were an⁃alyzed using the Semantic Formula. At the same time,we analyze the polite speech acts,impolite speech acts and non⁃verbal behaviors, aiming at comparison of “request⁃refusal” behaviors between Chinese and Japanese from comprehensive perspective. It is hoped that understanding differences and causes in refusal be⁃havior between cultures can contribute to improving cross⁃cultural communication between Chinese and Japa⁃nese people.%文章聚焦“请求—拒绝”行为,以中日电视剧台词为语料,从话语礼貌理论的视角出发,结合语义公式对中日拒绝行为进行对比分析,从礼貌言语行为、不礼貌言语行为以及非言语行为三个角度展开研究,旨在更加全面地考察中日拒绝行为。对中日拒绝行为的动态分析,探究其差异及出现差异的原因,有助于促进跨文化交际的顺利进行。
