摘要

Scholars from different disciplines have provided a great number of theories to examine the development of human relationships. The use of ostensible speech acts originally can be considered as trying to be polite, to save the hearer's or the speaker's face and maintain a harmony relationship between the communicators. Because of the complexity of the communication, communication failure occurs quite often. We should pay much more attention to the way to communicate.
