A Systemic Functional Syntactic Analysis of the “V+to+V” Construction in English
HUANG Guo-wen
2011, 27(1): 8-13.
Abstract(367) PDF(13)
Abstract:
This paper takes a systemic functional approach to the syntactic analysis of the "V+to+V" construction in English.The analysis indicates that there are a number of semantic relations between the two verbs (verbal groups) although they share the same syntactic form of "V+to+V".The analysis of different combinations in the "V+to+V" construction shows that a meaning-based approach to syntactic analysis has its advantages in exploring the relationship between the verbal group and its function in realizing meaning.

HE Wei, MA Rui-zhi
2011, 27(1): 19-27.
Abstract(275) PDF(22)
Abstract:
The study of modern Chinese temporal system, which can be traced back to 1930s, is receiving attention from more and more scholars.The focus of research has transformed from the existence of temporal concepts in Chinese to the realizations of temporal meaning and their relationship.The research tends to be more systematic and justifies a wider range of language phenomena.However, as a result of diversified research angles and emphases, the study of modern Chinese temporal system takes on an inconsistent scenario.This paper attempts to make a generalization of the studies in this area from the perspectives of tense, aspect, phase, temporal words, etc.in the hope of shedding some light for the construction of a complete and consistent modern Chinese temporal system.

Abstract(237) PDF(19)
Abstract:
Verbal jokes are closely associated with ambiguity, among which lexicogrammatical ambiguity is one of the major mechanisms for the generation of verbally expressed jokes.In systemic functional grammar (SFG), transitivity is analyzed in terms of the realization between meaning and lexicogrammar.This provides an effective way of interpretation for lexicogrammatical ambiguity, which has not been well expounded in the framework of formalist grammar.This paper explores within the SFG theory of transitivity why a joke induced by lexicogrammatical ambiguity is funny and how it is funny, and then a linguistic model is suggested for the analysis of such verbally expressed jokes in English.

Measuring the Effect of Chinese Residents' Health on Labor Force Participation——An Empirical Analysis Based on Multi-dimensional Health Indicators
WANG Jian-guo
2011, 27(1): 104-110,119.
Abstract(278) PDF(9)
Abstract:
Residents' health is extremely significant for their labor force participation.Domestic relevant research only adopts the self-reported General Health Status (GHS) as the measure of health level, but health is multi-dimensional;therefore self-reported health may not be able to completely measure the effect of Chinese residents' true health on labor force participation.To overcome this problem, this paper utilizes multi-dimensional health indicators, such as GHS, short-term disease, disease history, Body Mass Index (BMI) and nutrition intake.Our result reveals that self-reported GHS is indeed not an accurate measure of true health level to measure the effect of Chinese residents' true health on labor force participation, and different health indicators including self-reported GHS have relatively independent health information concerning its effect on labor force participation.
