摘　　要：在英语语言中 ,人们可以说 :“Letmehaveatry !” ,却不可以说 :“Letmetakeatry !” ;可以说 :“Hetookalookatherphoto.”却不可以说 :“Hetookalistentotheradio.”有的语言学家认为这类结构是英语语言中的奇特现象 ;而另有一些学者又将其归属于习惯用法。然而 ,经对大量的英语语言事实进行观察和研究后 ,文章认为这类结构是有规律可循的 ,并从句法和语义的角度分析了这类结构的内部机制 ,深入浅出地阐述了这类结构的有关特性。In the English language,people can say ”Let me have a try!” but they can’t say: ”Let me take a try!”;they can say ”He took a look at her photo.”,but they can’t say : ”He took a listen to the radio.” Some linguists regarded it as the peculiarity of the English language and other scholars attribute it to the idiomatical usage. Nevertheless,after observing and studying lots of English linguistic facts,this article holds that there are some rules for these structures,and has analyzed them from their syntactic and semantic meanings,explaining their profound characteristics in a simple way.
