This paper examines in the perspective of performance how politicians in political
interviews rely on linguistic strategies to grapple with the conflict between being uncooperative
and being polite. Three pairs of question-answer regarding North Korea
nuclear crisis between the spokesman for China’s Foreign Ministry and the reporters
were illustrated. As the illustration shows, the spokesman did not simply answer the
questions as commonly anticipated, but rather flout frequently and draw on the
information already raised by the reporters. It argues that to better understand how
opinions and attitudes are expressed by politicians in reply, it is essential to study
carefully their verbal acts as performance for particular interpretation.
