摘要:Movement appears to be specific to natural-language grammars. Thus, processing moments that reflect the computations of traces -- specifically intermediate traces left by cyclic movement -- signal a parsing mechanism specialized for language. Likewise, constraints on binding in English are unlike binding in formal systems: They seem to reflect computations in a specialized grammatical organization. Hence, binding-theoretic computations mediated by cyclic movement chains in the resolution of anaphors and pronouns during processing can be seen as privileged signatures of this grammatical architecture. Adult second language (L2) learners produced reading time asymmetries that reflect binding-theoretic constraints on the logical form reconstructions of anaphors and pronouns along movement chains in real time. These suggest that the processing of English as a L2 is structurally driven. Adapted from the source document
