影响先行语可及性的因素探析

影响先行语可及性的因素是分析语篇回指环境的重要依据。Ariel认为影响先行语可及性的因素主要有四种:距离因素(先行语与回指之间的距离);竞争因素(先行语角色的竞争者的数量);突显因素(先行语作为语篇的主题);一致/框架(先行语与回指语是否处于同一心理框架)。汉语语料的研究与分析表明,除以上四种因素,还存在两种影响因素,即层次性和间隔指称语位置。层次性指的是小句与小句之间的语义结构层次,间隔指称语位置是回指语与先行语之间相隔的其他指称词语的情况。

Factors Affecting the Accessibility of Antecedents on the Basis of Cognition

The factors affecting the accessibility of antecedents are the important basis for analyzing the environment of discourse anaphor.Ariel pointed out four factors affecting the accessibility of antecedents: distance,saliency,competition and unity.With the analysis of the data collected in Chinese,two other factors are also found affecting the accessibility of antecedents,i.e.,structural hierarchy and syntactic positions of interfering referents.Structural hierarchy refers to structures between small clauses,and syntactic positions of interfering referents refer to other referents between anaphors and antecedents.
