-Many studies of public hearings, both domestic and abroad, focus on hearing system itself, or on the perspective of political science and journalism. These aspects are all from external of the hearing quality. Seldom do they pay attention to the use of the language of hearing text. 

In the USITC hearings, we can easily find the speakers use pragmatic argumentation frequently in their expression of arguments to strengthen their standpoints.
