语义韵理论认为搭配会对词义产生影响，使原本中性的词汇感染上积极或消极的语义，这就为研究语义提供了一个全新的视角。程度副词最典型的用法是搭配谓词，因而非常容易受到感染，前人的研究成果初步证实了这一点。然而目前学界对程度副词的语义韵描写还不全面，有待完善。本文在前人研究的基础之上，确定了107个程度副词作为研究对象，并通过科学的方法对这107个程度副词进行了充分的语义韵描写。这是本文的重点之一，具体在正文第二章和第三章中展现。 在语义韵描写的过程中，笔者发现现代汉语程度副词的语义韵分布存在一定的不对称性，如“低量绝对程度”全部表现出消极的语义倾向。对于类似现象学界基本没有人讨论，其实质和原因还有待探求。为此，本文在语义韵描写的基础上，从语义、音节数、语体、语素构成、产生时间、常用程度等角度全面地考察了现代汉语程度副词的语义韵分布，总结了程度副词的语义韵分布规律。比如，消极语义韵只出现在相对程度副词的“较低”区和绝对程度副词的“超量、低量”区，尤其是绝对超量和低量区，几乎全都消极。程度副词的语义韵分布规律共有七点，具体在正文第四章中展现。 在总结规律的同时，笔者还尝试对现代汉语程度副词的语义韵分布规律进行解释。本文认为程度副词的语义韵分布不对称可以看做一种标记现象，体现了人们对“程度”范畴的感情倾向的认知模式。在影响现代汉语程度副词语义韵分布的诸多因素中，起决定作用的是语义因素，包括有无比较和程度高低。而语义之外的其他因素，如音节数、语体、语素构成、产生时间、常用程度等则是程度副词语义韵分布的“干扰项”。这些“干扰项”以两种机制来发挥作用，一是通过影响“程度”本身，二是通过影响“程度”的出现环境。这部分内容也在正文第四章中展现。 第五章的结语，总结了本研究的主要结论，以及研究的价值和不足。总体来看，无论是在理论层面还是应用层面，本研究都具有一定的参考意义。

The semantic prosody theory believes that collocation will affect the meaning of words, and make the neutral vocabulary positive or negative, which provides a new perspective for the study of semantics. The most typical usage of degree adverbs is to collocate predicates, so they are very susceptible to infection. The results of previous studies have preliminarily confirmed this point. However, the description of semantic prosody of degree adverbs in academic circles is not comprehensive yet, and needs to be improved. Based on previous studies, 107 degree adverbs were identified as research objects. And the 107 degree adverbs are fully represented by scientific semantics. This is one of the key points of this paper. It is shown in second chapters and third chapters. In the process of describing the semantic prosody, we found that the distribution of degree adverbs’ semantic prosody in modern Chinese has certain asymmetry. Such as "low absolute degree" all showed negative semantic tendencies. This is basically unattended in academic community. Its essence and causes need to be explored. Therefore, on the basis of semantic prosody description, this paper comprehensively investigates the semantic prosody distribution of the degree adverbs in modern Chinese from the perspectives of semantics, syllables, forms, morphemes composition, generation time and common use, and summarizes the rules of semantic prosody distribution of degree adverbs. For example, negative semantic prosody only appears in the "lower" part of relative degree adverbs and the "excess and low" parts of absolute degree adverbs, especially in absolute excess and low volume, almost all negative. There are seven points in the distribution of the semantic prosody of degree adverbs, which are shown in the fourth chapter. At the same time, we also try to explain the distribution of the semantic prosody in modern Chinese. This paper considers that the asymmetry of the semantic prosody of the degree adverb can be regarded as a markedness phenomenon, which embodies the cognitive pattern of the emotional tendencies of the degree category. Among the factors that affect the semantic prosody distribution of the degree adverbs in modern Chinese, the decisive factors are semantic factors, including the comparison and the degree. Other factors outside the semantics, such as the number of syllables, the composition of the language, the morpheme composition, the time of production and the degree of common use, are the "interference items" in the semantic prosody distribution of the degree adverbs. These "interference items" play the role of two mechanisms. One is to influence the "degree" itself, the second is to influence the environment of "degree". This part of the content is also shown in the fourth chapter of the text. The conclusion of the fifth chapter summarizes the main conclusions of this study, as well as the value and deficiency of the research. Generally speaking, this study is of some reference value both in theory and application.
