试论Halliday的主语判别方法的不足

本文认为Halliday的主语观具有一定的可操作性，但也有一些不足，尤其是不能合理地解释Let's句式中的主语及其相关的主位和动作者等问题。笔者着重从语用的角度对Let's句式做了较为详细的分析，试图弥补其理论应用上的不足。

On Halliday''''s View of Subject and Its Test Method

This paper presents a review of Halliday's method of subject test and holds that Halliday's view is generally reasonable and acceptable. He also points out, through a thorough falsification, that it still cannot explain satisfactorily such linguistic construction as is introduced by "Let's". It cannot, in particular, tell accurately what is the real subject of that construction and what is the real actor in some cases. Based on pragmatic theory, the author claims that his approach can help solve what Halliday's fail to.
