摘　　要：本文主要讨论汉语中的一种并列空动词句,我们认为该句式的生成与理解明显地受到语用控制。研究结果显示,此类空动词句首先依赖于事件性场景,并且句法上的显性先行语会降低句子的可接受性程度;其次,从信息结构上看,并列空动词句的主语和宾语分别为具有对比性质的话题焦点和信息焦点;此外,事件性场景这一语用限制条件蕴含了并列空动词句主语在指称上的语义限制条件。文章还进一步从信息结构的角度解释了对举结构中汉语各种动词性省略句的成因,并讨论了把并列空动词句中的空动词小句分析为"话题—述题"结构的合理性。This paper discusses the conjunctive empty verb sentences in Chinese. It is proposed that verb deletion and its interpretation in this type of sentence is licensed by pr th agmatic information rather than by syntactic conditions. The current study indicates that e grammaticality of conjunctive empty verb sentences is subject to the event context and at an overt antecedent will render the empty verb sentence less acceptable. The subject and object of the conjunctive empty verb sentence are contrastive topic-focus and informa- tion focus respectively. Besides, the pragmatic requirement of the event context entails se- mantic constraints on the reference of the subject. Under the framework of information structure, this paper also explores the motivations for other conjunctive verbal elliptical structures in Chinese and the plausibility for conjunctive empty verb sentences to be ana- lyzed as topic-comment structures.
