摘　　要：英汉语的形合与意合之区别,作为衔接特征,属语篇的表层标志,最终受思维模式制约;思维模式有‘虚’‘实’之分。‘有无相生’。据此,‘形’与‘意’、‘虚’与‘实’应该是辨证统一、相互依存的关系。英语重形,形为实,但也不是没虚,‘空位’便是其一;汉语重虚,其实也有实,例如比类取象。英汉互译的过程是寻求虚实统一的过程。The difference between the so-called hypotactic English and paratactic Chinese language is most observable in the cohesion of textualization. As a surface feature of textuality, it is sustained by the cognitive underpinning of the text by way of presence and absence of cognitive slots. It is not accidental that cognitive slots in language correspond with the law of the Implicit/Explicit of Yin/ Yang of the objective world, which results in the face that Being and Not-being grow our of one another. This paper therefore argues that both English and Chinese are hypotactic as well as paratactic, and translation between the two languages can be perceived as a process of slot management.
