摘　　要：时至今日,英语仍坚守“一词一义”之原则,但经常挑战和困惑国内英语学者的是诸如swim/climb/play/walk/ride/load等动词在与名词,尤其是与处所名词组合搭配中,时而带介词时而又不带介词。本研究发现这种选择性搭配由“完成性”“成就性”“整体受动性”语义属性或特征所致,并提出了问题解决方案:此三种语义属性的实施对相关动词的选择性搭配具有显见的制约作用,成为语言使用者依据实时语境对VP还是V+Prep作出取舍的决定性因素。Up to today the traditional rule in English that one form stands for one meaning is strictly observed.But what often challenges and puzzles scholars of English at home is the phenomenon that such verbs as swim/climb/play/walk/ride/load can be collocated either with a noun especially a locative noun with a preposition or with one without a preposition.What really leads to this free alternation long remains a problem.The author of this paper claims a solution to this problem by executing three semantic properties,namely COMPLETION/FEAT and WHOLISTIC AFFECTEDNESS which prove to effectively exercise a partial pragmatic constraints on the alternation.As determinants these three semantic properties respectively urge language users to select VP over V+Prep according to what can be contextually interpreted as COMPLETION/FEAT and WHOLISTIC EFFECTEDNESS in the discourse.
