摘　　要：本文从形式句法的角度切入,运用Chomsky(2013,2015)的贴标理论(labeling theory)深入分析了汉语乾坤挪移句的句法、语义特征。文中我们着重考察了乾句和坤句之间的句法共性,指出乾句和坤句共享同一个基底结构,乾句和坤句所特有的表层语序其实代表了解决动词层贴标困境的两种逻辑可能性;同时,本文还指出,虽然乾、坤二句在屈折层均通过隐性模态词来贴标,但两者所涉及的模态诠释类型不同,前者涉及的是容量模态(capacity modality)或道义模态(deontic modality),而后者则只允许道义模态,乾句和坤句的语义区别也由此而来。This article investigates the syntactic and semantic properties of Chinese flip-flop sentences in terms of Labeling Theory(Chomsky 2013,2015).In particular,it is pointed out that a“flip”sentence shares the same basic structure with its“flop”counterpart,and that the different surface structure of the two sentences actually reflects two logical possibilities of solving labeling issues at the vP level.Furthermore,the analysis shows that the interpretive differences between the flip-flop constructions are mainly related to the inflectional layer of the clausal spine.Although both sentences are labeled as Mod(a silent modal category),the types of modality involved are not entirely the same:while the flip construction may involve either capacity or deontic modality,the flop construction only allows deontic interpretations.
