A contrastive analysis of the academic phrases, which are sourced from the academic corpus of COCA and the abstract corpus of EST papers published in China, is conducted in this paper. The distributions of academic phrases categorized by structure and function are studied to recognize the challenges faced by Chinese EFL learners. The analysis indicates that: 1) as for structural classification, verbal phrases are used more frequently in the EST abstract corpus than in the COCA academic corpus, while the frequency of function-based phrases represents the reverse tendency;2) concerning functional classification, the application of referential expressions phrases are significant in both corpora. These findings serve as a potential reference to the study on linguistic features of EST abstracts and the teaching of academic writing in future.展开更多
