摘　　要：科学理论在作为整体的科学事业中占据中心地位,它试图描述和解释客观世界的现象、规律及其特征,而语言在其中扮演了重要的角色,这就必然使得作为语言问题研究基础的语义分析方法与科学理论之间建立起紧密的逻辑关联。具体来讲,科学理论的发明与构造内在地要求概念和意义分析等语义分析方法的应用,而科学家们通过意义的模型建构方式为科学理论的发明与构造提供了语言层面"内容"与"形式"的双重支撑;科学理论是对客观世界现实图景的语义和逻辑重构,而"指称的多层次语义结构"和"意义的整体关联"为科学理论的表征与诠释机制奠定了重要基础;科学理论的评价与科学理论的真理性问题考察紧密相关,而以语义分析作为沟通媒介,科学理论才能够在科学共同体内部以及科学理论的创造者与使用者之间实现交流与共享的目标。Theory of science occupies a central position in the scientific endeavours as a whole,it attempts to describe and explain the phenomena,laws and characteristics of the objective world.In this process,language plays an important role,which inevitably establishes a close logical relationship between the semantic analysis method(as the basis of language research)and theory of science.Specifically,the invention and construction of theory of science inherently require the application of semantics analysis methods such as concepts and meaning analysis.Scientists provide the dual support of"content"and"form"at the linguistic level for the invention and construction of theory of science by means of the model construction of meaning.Theory of science is the semantic and logical reconstruction of the realistic picture of the objective world,while"referential multi-level semantic structure"and"whole relevance of meaning"lay an important foundation for the representation and interpretation mechanism of theory of science.The evaluation of theory of science is closely related to the investigation into the truth of theory of science.Only by semantic analysis as a communication medium,can theory of science achieve the goal of communication and sharing within the scientific community and between the creators and users of theory of science.
