中文摘要：

文章从系统功能语言学的角度探讨了及物分析和作格分析两种语义分析模式的关系和区别,并从及物系统的六种过程类型出发,依据各过程类型小句的致使义程度、作格过程词汇化程度和及物程度对及物性—作格性这一连续统进行了分析。分析结果表明,有的物质过程小句更适合及物分析,有的更适合作格分析,其它五种过程类型小句中,除部分实现致使义的环境型关系过程小句更适合作格分析外,大多更适合及物分析。

英文摘要：

Transitivity is a key concept in the study of language. The paper not only discusses the relation and differences between the transitive and the ergative semantic models in systemic functional linguistics, but also analyzes the transitive-ergative continuum in terms of the degree of transitivity, causativity and the manner in which ergative processes are lexicalized of clauses of different processes. The result shows some clauses of material process are better analyzed transitively, some ergatively, and some both transitively and ergatively Among the rest five processes, except for some clauses of circumstantial process of reason, most of them are better analyzed transitively.
