摘　　要：古汉语中的"天"存在概念借代,如代天空的特征、天气气候、星辰、自然界等,以及概念隐喻,如人的心是天、地位高权势大者是天等。研究证实,存在借代—隐喻连续体。"天"背后的认知机制反映出古代中国人对天人关系的理解以及对美好生活的向往。It has been found that the semantic network of TIAN （HEAVEN） in ancient Chinese broadens its scope through conceptual metonymies HEAVEN FOR FEATURES OF SKY, HEAVEN FOR WEATHER AND CLIMATE, HEAVEN FOR STARS, and HEAVEN FOR NATURE, and conceptual metaphors HUMAN HEART IS HEAVEN, A PERSON OF HIGH STATUS AND POWER/MATERIAL OF HIGH IMPORTANCE IS HEAVEN, etc. The study provides further evidence in support of the metaphor-metonymy continuum. The cognitive mechanisms behind TIAN （HEAVEN） in ancient Chinese people＇s minds reflect their perception of the relationship between heaven and human being as well as their yearning for a better life.
