Abstract

This paper analyzes the types of Plural Verb Constructions, in which two or more verbs appearin one sentence, in order to find out a desirable methodology of reading comprehension in modernchinese texts. The target of analysis is intermediate and upper level texts composed of 805 phrasesor sentences classified by punctuation marks. The purpose of this study is to present somescientific implications for reading comprehension in Chinese by examining the frequency of eachtype of Plural Verb Constructions and the level of difficulty between those types. The 18 types ofplural verb phrases and sentences are as follows. ⋅A-type plural verb sentencesserial-verb sentences, pivotal sentences, compressed sentences, verb reduplication sentences, “shi”emphatic sentences, juxtapositional verb sentences, “ma” interrogative sentences, verb repeatingsentences⋅B-type plural verb sentencesadnominal phrase, object of verb, object of preposition, subject, resultative complement,directional complement, potential complement, degree complement, adverbial, auxiliary verbsWe should teach students high frequency types in Plural Verb Constructions among the 18types for the first. The most frequent occurrence in Plural Verb Constructions is that the verb isbeing used as an adnominal phrase which modify a noun. The next highest is the type used bythe verb as a direct object. Because around 1/4(24.6%) of Plural Verb Constructions is anadnominal phrase, it is easy to grasp the sentence structure once students could distinguishadnominal phrases. Also, the educational method for reading comprehension should be changedaccording to the narrative sentence and the interactive sentence. The structure of interactivesentence is more complicated than that of the narrative sentence. The most complicated case is that11 types of Plural Verb Constructions appear at a time only in one sentence. 현대중국어 복수동사구문 유형 연구 287I consider this paper contributed to the development of educational methodology for Chinesereading comprehension in many ways. First, the concept of a new sentence type of plural verbphrase was clearly discerned. Secondly, the method of reading comprehension based on verb typesin Chinese text was systematically presented. I also hope that I would be able to more develop toanalyse the complexity of Chinese texts by studying much more sentences.
