摘要
回指是篇章连贯的主要手段之一,受多种因素影响。前人文献较少关注回指语形式对回指的影响,而这正是汉语篇章的特色之一。本文运用眼动实验的范式考察汉语母语者阅读理解第三人称回指语形式(第三人称代词或零形式)的差异,包括认知加工时间的长短以及是否影响回指对象的判定,并对比相关语言学研究,旨在揭示汉语母语者理解篇章回指的机制。实验发现:1)汉语母语者阅读话题接续的篇章时,零形式快于代词;而阅读话题转换的篇章时,代词快于零形式。可见母语者对篇章连贯性和回指语形式之间的对应关系非常敏感,篇章连贯性和回指语形式之间有相互作用。2)不管是零形式还是代词,母语者都倾向认为其回指主语,即回指语形式不影响回指对象的判定,但读者会根据篇章的展开理解并修正对回指的判断,证明篇章回指的理解是一个动态的调整过程。
Anaphor is an important way to establish text cohesion. Unlike the formal research, the paper focuses on the influence of the anaphor( the third person pronoun or zero) on anaphora resolution, which is also the distinguishing feature of Mandarin texts. It analyzes the on-line reading process of the third person anaphora in Mandarin texts by using the eye-tracking experiments. The difference between the third person pronoun and zero anaphora includes reading time and anaphora resolution. It is found that zero anaphora is read faster than pronouns in topic-continued texts while pronouns faster than zero anaphora in topic-shifted texts. Therefore, the readers are sensitive to the expression types fit in the context. In addition,despite different expression types,readers have a default linguistic knowledge that all anaphora refer to the subjects of the sentence. They can adjust their understanding of the anaphora along with the reading of the texts as well as using the default knowledge of the anaphora understanding. It fully proves that text comprehension is a dynamic process of adjustment.
