摘要
本文旨在探讨Hawkins的领域最小化理论[10]对有效加工汉语关系从句的指导意义及潜在问题。通过具体分析Hawkins针对关系从句而提出的填充词—空位域,本文肯定了其对诠释类型学普遍规律的强大解释力,以及在汉语主语和宾语关系从句的难易对比实证研究中获得的支持。同时,本文也讨论了两种情况,即(i)汉语主语关系从句中是否蕴含前置限定词的难易对比;(ii)汉语宾语关系从句中是否蕴含"被"字的难易对比,揭示Hawkins理论的预测和实证结果的不一致,并指出该理论需要改进的可能方向。
This paper examines Hawkins＇ Minimize Domain proposal [ 10 ] and specifically its minimal Filler-Gap Domain （FGD）relevant to relative clause （RC） processing, and discusses its potential problems arising from relative clause processing in Chinese. While the proposed FGD can successfully account for typological universals such as Keenan and Comrie＇s [ 12] Accessibility Hierarchy, to which Chinese is also no exception, its predictions are inconsistent with experimental findings in the case of adding extra nodes in pre-RC positions in Chinese, specifically, （ i ） when a classifier occurs to the left edge of a subject-extracted RC, and （ ii ） when a passive BEI occurs to the left edge of an object-extracted RC. The paper suggests possible aspects in Hawkins＇ theory that might be improved.
