摘要先前研究对汉语部分动结式的补语指向问题一直存在争议。本文基于Huang et al.(2009)的轻动词理论对动结式的补语指向进行了深入研究,并对英汉语结果性结构的形式差异做出了解释。本文的研究表明,动结式补语V2所指向的论元必然是由词根√V2携带的轻动词Lv1筛选出的事件客体,在句法中投射到内部论元位置,因此汉语的动结式与英语的结果性结构一样,都遵守"Simpson法则"。两种结构在形式上的某些差异归因于只有汉语词库中允许存在光杆性动词词根。 The semantic orientation of V2 has raised heated discussions in the study of Chinese RVCs. This paper , onduets an in-depth analysis of this issue based on the Light Verb Theory proposed by Huang et al. （2009）. We find that the argmnent in the semantic orientation of V2 is invariably a Theme selected by the light verb Lvl con- tained in the LSS of the RVC and mapped as an internal argument in syntax. Therefore, Chinese RVCs also comply with the Simpson＇ s Law just as their counterpart in English. The structural differences between them lie in that only Chinese allows the option of not having any Lv in V.
