On the Valence Split and Combination (1)
Abstract: The variables to which the obligatory participants in the scene correspond in the dictionary definitions or in the
metalanguage definitions is called the semantic valence of the predicate. The syntactic positions which are connected by
the predicate at the syntactic level are called the syntactic valence of the predicate. The semantic and syntactic notions of
valence need not coincide. When the former interfaces with the latter, split, combination, or other changes could take
place. Semantic valence split refers to the semantic-syntactic phenomenon that the compositional semantic valence of a
predicate is represented by two syntactic constitutes that do not have subordinate relations. On the contrary, semantic
valence combination is the semantic-syntactic phenomenon that two semantic valences of a predicate could be
expressed by one syntactic valence at the syntactic level. Further, it is possible that the semantic valences of some
predicates may not be expressed by syntactic positions. It is also possible that the same semantic valence may be
expressed by different syntactic valences, while not change the meaning of the predicate. In addition, restricted by the
special characteristics of particular scenes, the participants in these scenes can only be fixed objects of certain types. In
this paper, the definition of semantic valence and syntactic valence is based on the Moscow semantic school.
Key words: semantic valence; syntactic valence; semantic valence split; semantic valence combination; genitive phrase

Some Thoughts about the Polysemy and Semantic Word Formation
Abstract: Polysemy is one of the key characters of natural language. It is caused by the following reasons: the same
deep syntactic structure has different surface structures; the same semantic valence has different forms in syntactic
structures and the different syntactic relations cause semantic migration. The paper discusses relationship between
polysemy and the semantic word formation as well as the deep-seated factor of polysemy.
Key words: the polysemy; semantic valence; semantic word formation

Contemporary Chinese
Abstract:
The
Moscow Semantic School and Lexical Semantic Studies of
theoretical principle and method of Moscow Semantic School(MSS) gives us new understandings of
lexical semantic researches of contemporary Chinese: hierarchically analyzing lexical semantics; integrally analyzing
lexical, pragmatico-communicative and grammatical semantics; thoroughly describing semantic structure of predicates
based on theta frame; observing lexical meaning through careful lexeme analyses; paying attention to intercourse of
lexical and sentence semantics etc. Implementation of these aspects will deepen research of synonymy and polysemy in
Chinese and change the old patterns of lexical semantic studies of contemporary Chinese.
Key words: Moscow Semantic School (MSS); lexical semantic studies of contemporary Chinese; the integral linguistic
descriptions; methodology

The New Views on Russian Contrastive Research History
Abstract: This paper for the first time has divided development phase of Russian contrastive research history, analysed
the relationship between the contrastive linguistics and linguistic typology and the researches on language universals,
78
determined the main academic schools of Russian contrastive linguistics and main views, and compared with the Western
contrastive research history.
Key words: Russian contrastive research; linguistic typology; language universals; Western contrastive researches

Concerning the Mood and Discourse Functions of ''BOT''
Abstract: The mood word ''BOT'' is widely used in modern Russian, thus arousing great concerns among the linguistics.
Nevertheless, a glance at the existing research proves that most of the current exploration into this arena is from a static
perspective rather than a dynamic one. Accordingly, the author deems it necessary to study the word ''BOT'' with multiple
approaches. The essay analyses the word in terms of its mood and discourse functions in the contexts.
Key words: mood word BOT; mood function; discourse function

A Contrastive Study on the Linguistic Views of Baudouin and Saussure
Abstract: Baudouin de Courtenay and Ferdinand-Mongin de Saussure initiated the modern linguistic science. They have
common views in many linguistic perspectives, such as the essence of language, the arbitrariness of language signs,
linguistic diachronic (dynamic) and the synchronic (static) properties and the language systematicity. The article aims to
find the rules of language development and its essential features through a quantitative analysis of the two linguists’
analogous views.
Key words：language essence; the arbitrariness of language signs; linguistic diachronic (dynamic) and the synchronic
(static) properties; language systematicity

Thought-Language Comprehension Process in Complete Translation
——About Clause Centre and Complete Translation
Abstract: Having such basic units as word, phrase, clauses, complex sentence, and sentence group, the complete
translation can be divided into bottom-to-top and top-to-bottom comprehension processes. To get the connotative
meaning and pragmatic value, the whole process not only considers the comprehension of source language as major and
thought transformation minor , but also involves code switching and expressing within the target language.
Key words: complete translation; comprehension; thought-language process

The Isomorphism of Poem Text and Problem of Translation
Abstract: Recognizing the realistic difficulties of poem translation, which are restricted by structures and content features
of poems, we can give the positive answer to the problems of poem translation. Its translation in a high quality can be
reached with the help of using new translation operators, one of which is the isomorphism.
Key words: poem text; the isomorphism; problem of translations

Aspects
Language Parallel of Chinese and Russian: Linguistic and Translatable
Abstract: Based on thoughts of the functional isomorphism we can find the parallel of the Chinese and Russian
languages. Language is a system, where every its element completes a certain function. The ability to find functional
79
contents inside the language material will help translator construct the isomorphism structures, assuring transmit
information while translating.
Key words: language parallel of Chinese and Russian; linguistic aspect; translatable aspect

Contrastive and Text Linguistics, Contrastive Textology and Translation Studies
Abstract: Contrastive linguistics, text linguistics and contrastive textology, which rose and began to develop in the last
century, are closely connected with translation studies, and the connection runs through the entire development process
of language translation. Through the analysis of the relevant literature on translation both at home and abroad, it is clearly
seen that the combination of relevant disciplines has different focuses and study subjects, and it is definitely confirmed
that adopting a comprehensive study of translation is an important guarantee for the independence and integrity of
translation studies.
Key words: contrastive linguistics; text linguistics; contrastive textology; translation studies

ZHANG Bing Marxist Sociology and Lotman’s Cultural and Historical Semeiology
Abstract: Lotman’s cultural and historical semeiology is the literary school that have been come into being in the period of
the U.S.S.R, so that it’s theoretical base is most be Marxist. It determined not only by the situation that he lived but also by
his self-conscious academic pursue. Lotman’s cultural and historical semeiology is penetrated by the spirit of the Marxist
historical and dialectic materialism that is represented in A: consciousness is determined by the being; and in the B: open
out the substance and
ecolvements of text in the contradictions and conflicts in and outward the text, so that for
Lotman’s cultural and historical semeiology the history is not the enemy but the friend and dialectics are it’s
methodological foundation.
Key words: Lotman; Marxism; history; dialectic

Abstract: 《Prose poems》is not only the last work of Turgenev, but also the precious work in the world literature. Though
written with the realistic method, it is still overflows the poet’s Romantic spirit and elements. Nowadays when the
utilitarianism of literal criticism is dispelled, we should reread 《Prose Poems》 and research the Romantic elements in it,
in order to clear up a lot of misreading in the past.
Key Words: Turgenev;《Prose poems》; romantic elements
