摘　　要：结果次谓语结构由两个事件构成,以主谓词为中心的事件强调变化,以结果次谓词为中心的事件强调变化结果。这种变化需要一个能受影响的内论元承担。内论元称为主项或次主语。结果次谓语结构的焦点投射符合Selkirk的焦点投射原则。如果主项获得焦点重音,则具备主项焦点特征的投射性质。也就是说,虽然主谓词和结果谓词非重读,但是被包含在主项焦点范围内,成为宽焦点。不过,如果主项是人称代词或仅仅是为了满足句子的结构需要,焦点则落在结果谓词上;后者不具备焦点投射特性,句子只获得窄焦点。A resultative sentence contains two events. One stresses the change of the event with the head oi the matrix predicate while another emphasizes on the result of the change with the head of the secondary predicate, but the two events need an internal argu- ment which undergoes the change. If the argument, called host or postverb subject, receives a pitch accent and a wide focus reading is intended, then the focus feature can be projected to include the predicate and the secondary predicate according to Sel- kirk＇ s focus projection principles. However, if the host is pronominalized or otherwise c-construable, the pitch accent is realized on the resultative secondary predicate, which has a narrow focus reading.
