摘　　要：本文研究语篇回指中实体成分的可及性是否受到期待性因素的影响。通过对汉语报刊语料库的统计和分析后发现,无定名词短语相比有定名词短语,以及存现结构中的无定名词短语相比非存现结构中的无定名词短语,其指称的宾语位置上的实体成分同时具有:1)作为下一小句主题的较高倾向性;2)在作为下一小句主题时被高可及性标示语回指的较高倾向性。研究结果表明:当实体成分在下文中被提及的倾向性较高时,其对应的可及性也较高,从而证明了语篇回指中实体成分的期待性对可及性的影响;汉语中的无定名词短语和存现结构是将宾语位置上的实体成分标示为下一小句的期待主题的两个重要手段。Previous research has controversy on whether the accessibility of entities in discourse anaphora is influenced by the expectancy factor. Based on statistical analysis of a Chinese newspaper corpus,the present study reveals that an entity denoted by an indefinite NP(as opposed to a definite NP) in a standard object position or in an existential-presentative construction is associated with: 1) a higher probability of being mentioned as the topic of the next clause; 2) a higher probability of being referred to with high accessibility markers when mentioned as the topic of the next clause. The findings indicate that entities more likely to be mentioned subsequently are more accessible, and hence demonstrate the influence of expectancy on the accessibility of entities in discourse anaphora.
