By collecting 100 Abstracts taken from 50 review articles and 50 research articles, the data was firstly identified by its common lexical bundle. Further, Genre Analysis theory was utilized to classify the functions of the bundles into the statement of purpose, method, and result. After completing the analysis, the researchers found that by identifying the keywords, not all of the bundle expressions were classified into one function.
