Abstract 摘要
This paper explores the relationship between the aspectual and thematic systems of verbs in Mandarin, focusing on the phenomenon of Aspectual Category Shift (ACS), the shifting of verbs between aspectual categories. Using a framework of aspectual features proposed in Jackendoff 1987, it demonstrates that the aspectual structure of verbs determines and constrains their ability to shift. Finally, it argues that aspectual features intersect with certain thematic features to determine the four aspectual categories of State, Activity, Achievement and Accomplishment.

本文旨在探讨汉语中动词的体类和体元系统二者间的关连，着重于体类变化以及动词在体类变化的现象。本文是依据Jacken doff 与1987年所发表的体特征一观点作为论述架构，主要论点在于证明动词的体特征会决定并限制其变化的能力。最后，本文亦针对体特征与某些特定的题元特征将共同决定「状态」，「活动」，「达成」，「完结」四种体类此论点作一论证。
