摘　　要：认知语言学对语义与句法界面的研究主要聚焦在构式语法。该语法认为语法结构本身具有意义，而且该意义独立于句子中的词语而存在。在构式语法范式下，探索英语补语化构式的意义，补语化构式在分析型致使结构中的识解，以及交替句式的语义差异等。研究发现，to不定式隐含着一种概念距离，而-ing隐含着一种时间的概念重叠。补语化成分是形式与意义、功能的结合体，是一种事件结构构式，这种构式把两个事件通过时间性、有界性、象似性等认知原则联系起来。Construction grammarians hold that grammatical constructions carry meanings in their own right, independently of the words in the sentence. This paper attempts to investigate the form/meaning （function） pairings of sentential comple- mentations, their interaction with analytic causative constructions and semantic difference between some alternative con- structions. It is argued that all to infinitival complements evoke the notion of conceptual distance of some kind. In addition, -ing is also meaningful in evoking some kind of conceptual overlap between the matrix and subordinate clauses. English sentential complementation is an event structure construction, which combines the matrix event and embedded event through temporality, boundedness and iconic principles.
