论思维对象的层次性

人类思维的反思特性使思维对象从物理对象不断扩展到思维本身以及表达思维的语言，这一方面使得各种思维工具不断地被自觉地创造出来；另一方面则是创造了思维对象的无限层次。但是人类越是对自身的知识加以反思，对这种反思引发的各种混乱也越急需清理。这些混乱大多由两种混淆引起，即混淆思维对象的不同层次以及混淆思维对象与思维工具。本文力图理清思维对象间的层次关系，并论证这种层次关系的客观性。

On Different Levels of Objects of Thought

The reflective characteristics of human thinking extend objects of thought constantly from physical objects to thinking itself and the language used for thinking. On the one hand, this allows a variety of thinking tools to be consciously created; on the other hand, unlimited levels of objects of thought are produced. However, the more people reflect on their own knowledge, the more urgent it is to clear all kinds of chaos triggered by this reflection. These chaoses are caused by the two confusions： confusing different levels of objects of thought, and confusing objects of thought with thinking tools. This paper tries to clarify the relations of the levels of objects of thought, and to demonstrate the objectivity of this multi-level relation.
