摘　　要：本文从容器隐喻的属性着手,论述容器的物理特性,并且发现容器隐喻有如下功能和特点:在容器内意味着安全、得到保护;容器内部的东西往往比较重要;在容器内意味着熟知和权威;在容器内意味着受控制、束缚;在容器内意味着事件的进行等。这些功能在容器隐喻内又形成了系统。容器的属性和功能形成了一个网络,共同制约着跨域间的映射,这也决定了容器隐喻的生成性。The article starts from the physical features of container. Then it discovers that CONTAINER metaphor has the following functions： a container is a black box, being inside the container means being safe and protected, the contained part is more important, being inside the container is under control, being inside the container is the process of activities, which form a network within container and set limits on the metaphorical mappings from the source domains to the target domains and decide the productivity of CONTAINER metaphor.
