摘要
本文旨在通过对比考察关于控制-依赖型小句复合体中"时态一致现象"的几种假设,指出系统功能语法时态扩展理论的优势所在。文章首先探讨"时态形式一致论"、"绝对指示论"、"相对时间论"和"相对或绝对时间论"等4种假设的适用性,以及它们在解释语言现象时均存在的不同程度的局限性;然后,阐述并扩展系统功能语法的时态观。通过实例分析,指出系统功能语法中"依赖型或自主型假设"具有适用范围广,解释力强的特点。
In the literature to date, there are at least four hypotheses about "sequence of tenses" in finite hypotactic clause complexes. These hypotheses (i. e. , the formal sequence of tenses hypothesis, the absolute deixis hypothesis, the relative time hypothesis, and the relative or absolute time hypothesis) have their own limitations in terms of applicability at different degrees. After a com- parison of these hypotheses, this paper discusses and expands the original tense view of Systemic Functional Grammar. Through the analysis of some problematic examples with other hypotheses, it is found that the "dependent or independent hypothesis" within the framework of Systemic Functional Grammar is much more applicable.
