This corpus-based research examines whether there is a gap in language use between ESP textbooks and Electrical Engineering introductory textbooks. Two corpora were set up, the Electrical Engineering introductory textbook corpus (EEITC) and the English for Specific Purposes textbook corpus (ESPTC). Lexical bundles and their pragmatic functions were identified in the EEITC; the majority are referential and stance bundles, which construct the body of knowledge and indicate the reader/author relationships in introductory EE textbooks. The comparison of lexical bundles in the two corpora suggests that there is a gap: compared with the EEITC, the ESPTC lacks five subcategories of lexical bundles and misrepresents target language use. The two main implications of this research are: (1) lexical bundles with their pragmatic functions should be incorporated into the EAP/ESP pedagogies, and (2) lexical bundles can become one way to judge the authenticity of EAP/ESP pedagogical materials.
