汉语有标条件复句的篇章功能探析

Exploration of Functions of the Marked Conditional Complex Sentence in Chinese

修辞结构理论重在突出篇章的关系性、功能性和层次性。以修辞结构理论为依托来探究汉语有标条件复句在篇章中的主要功能,其篇章功能主要表现在两个方面,一是推动篇章发展,作为始发句时可以成为篇章话题或背景话题从而推动篇章的展开和发展,作为后续句时可以延续话题或转换话题从而推动篇章发展;二是承接上文,结束全篇,这主要指作为终止句的条件复句出现在篇章结尾的情况,常见的有篇章作结和发出号召等几种表现。

Theory of rhetorical structure emphasizes the relations, functions and the hierarchical division of a chapter. The functions of marked conditional complex sentence in Chinese are explored herein according to the theory. Such functions includes： 1. to progress the chapter as the topic or the background at the beginning, and to continue or change the topic as the follow-up sentence ; 2. to continue from the preceding paragraph and end the whole chapter when the sentence is found at the end and usually makes a conclusion or issues a call.
