摘　　要：文章在Reinhart(2002)题元系统(Theta System)理论的框架下,考察汉语动结式的形成及其题元和论元结构,并以此为切入点重新思考词库和句法之间的关系。我们的结论是,动结式的题元指派和论元结构等句法语义现象是词库-句法界面中以动结式组成成分的题元特征为操作对象的一种复合形态操作。这一结论说明词库和句法两个部门中的论元结构操作具有不同的句法后果,词库仍然需要作为一个独立的语法部门存在。The verb resuhative compound （henceforth VRC） construction in Chinese has spawned lively discussion in the theorization of argument structure and lexicon-syntax interface. By exploring the morpho-syntactic properties of VRCs in more detail, we show that neither the traditional lexicalist approach characterized by mapping from theta-grid to argument structure/D-structure based on the thematic hierarchy, nor the syntactic approach, which forms VRCs via head movement and derives their argument structure in syntax, can do full justice to the observed phenomenon concerning the argument realization of VRCs. This article attempts to formulate a new analysis under the framework of the Theta System （ Reinhart 2002） , treating compounding of two verb morphemes as a lexical operating on the decomposed features of theta roles which are specified in lexicon. The analysis proposed here may shed some new light on the debate concerning the relation between lexicon and syntax, which is ultimately an empirical issue, as Chomsky （1970） once suggested.
