Taking clause as the perspective of observation, the construction of "V + cheng (成) structure, the basic situation of a clause made up of "V+cheng"structure and some rules showed in its government by the clause are discussed. Two parts are included in this paper. In part one,including an introduction, a thorough study of the regular "V+cheng "structure,its syntactic manifestation and some V+comp.structures with "V+cheng"structure is made.In part two, the variant of "V+cheng"structure is studied from the aspects of syntax,semantics,pragmatics,aesthetics and so on.The first part includes the former five chapters.In the introduction a retrospection of the previous studies of "V+cheng " is made and the subject,the theoretic basis,study methodology,study framework and study material are explained.In chapter one,the study starts from the verbs in "V+cheng "strucrure.The verbs that can or cannot collocate with "cheng (成)" are discussed in detail. Then, the features of "V + cheng (成)" structure are made clear. At the same time, a diachronic study of "V + cheng (成)" structure is made.In chapter two,there is a detailed discussion about a special "V + cheng (成)" structure, i.e., "V + cheng (成) + yi (一) + (verbal) classifier" structure, in which the verbal classifier can be homographic or un-homographic and the verb and classifier is governed by the structure. This structure demonstrates some features in its construction, syntactic function and features, tense and aspect, variant forms, and pragmatic value.In chapter three,a detailed description of the subject, adverbial and object in the structure is made.The situations of subject, object, adverbial,etc. are complicated after they enter into the clause, In this chapter,these situations are described respectively.In chapter four,in the syntactic research on "V + cheng (成)" structure, a case study of "ba (把) and "bei (被)" sentences with "V + cheng (成)" is conducted, and the V + Comp. with "V + cheng (成)" structure is investigated, too.In chapter five,a detailed discussion is made on the V+comp. clause with "V+cheng"structure. "Y+cheng" in this part mainly means "success".The classification of " V+cheng "structures is made and the reasons and conditions which cause ambiguity are analysed.The seconed part includes the latter three chapters which mainly discusses the variant of "V+c/ze?g"structure.In chapter six,in the variant "V + cheng (M) " structure, V may be substituted by nouns, verbal phrases and other types of phrases. NPi and NP2 may also have their variants.In the chapter,the syntax and semantics of the variant "V+cheng"strucrure are also discussed.In chapter seven,the following contents are discussed.The variant "V + cheng ($c) " structure is a structure with strong stylistic tendency, which is often used in artistic style, and seldom used in academic one. The paper holds that the figures of speech realized by the variant "V + cheng (M)" structure in a clause include simile, personification, hyperbole, parallelism, comparison, and so on. This is what we call the pragmatic value of the structure in question.In chapter eight,there is a conclusion of the whole paper, in which the major viewpoints, the achievements and some deficiencies of the paper are presented.
