Abstract—Based on Halliday’s Systemic-Functional Grammar and transitivity theory, this study carries out an analysis in article abstracts of English for Science and Technology (EST), and randomly selects 30 abstracts as the original data from the latest periodical Science (Dec. 2022–Mar. 2023) with the instruments Qualitative Coder 1.1 and SPSS 22. Findings indicate that: 1) 30 abstracts only cover 5 transitivity processes; 2) constituent ratio differentiation of selected transitivity processes are statistically significant (X2 = 86.506，P < 0.05) ; 3) the study analyzes high-frequency verbs of transitivity processes aiming at offering English non-native scholars some guidelines in the writing of research article abstracts.
