With Halliday’s functional grammar as the theoretical framework, this paper examines the functions and distributions of code-switching in three different types of magazines from the perspective of experiential, interpersonal, and textual metafunctions. It has found that in experiential function, codeswitching plays the function of filling the vocabulary vacancy, quoting and abiding the cultural constraints; in interpersonal aspect, it plays the function of evaluation and involvement; in textual construction, the function of code-switching is mainly concentrated in lexical cohesion level. This paper tries to provide readers a better understanding of the functions of code-switching. KEYWORD: Code-switching; Metafunction; Magazine International Conference on Social Science, Education Management and Sports Education (SSEMSE 2015) © 2015. The authors Published by Atlantis Press 109 from a random set of sentences. This paper tries to analyze the functions of code-switching in magazines from three different metafunctions. 3 TYPES AND DISTRIBUTION OF CODESWITCHING IN MAGAZINES The data of this paper is mainly collected from three different kinds of magazines: Chinese version of Cosmopolitan (Cosmo), China Newsweek and Computer Fan (CFan). Among them, Cosmo is a fashion magazine focusing on finery, hairdressing and metal and carrier development of Chinese women. CFan is targeted for the primary and junior level computer fans, aiming to spread computer knowledge and cultivate computer talents. While the China Newsweek focuses on the influential national and international news, including politic, economic, and cultural news.

Many linguistics have classified code-switching in different types, and among them, Poplack’s classification is extensively adopted by many researchers. Poplack identifies code-switching into “intersentential switching”, “intrasentential switching” and “extrasentential (tag) switching” (Poplack, 1980). Based on Poplack’s classification of code-switching, the author cites the collected corpus of code-switching in these three types of magazines respectively. Their distribution in each magazine is showed in the following table: Table 1. Distribution of code-switching in different magazines. Type/Number/Percent/ Magazine Cosmo China
