Using the RZH criterion for paradox resolutions, this thesis makes a systematical study of formal language and "return to natural language " solutions for semantic paradoxes in the perspective of linguistic logic. It not only presents some imperative conditions that a proper paradox resolution asks for but reveals the mainstream and the developing trend of present-day research on semantic paradox, through further comparative study of formal technique and philosophical interpretation. In addition, this thesis points out that the resource of semantic paradox is in fact "presupposition fallacy", by investigating carefully "context-sensitivity" program as well as analyzing "Situation Semantics " program, the significant representative of "context-sensitivity" program and the typical case of paradox research.Basing on relative matrix, the thesis clarifies Keith Simmons' misunderstanding of the hierarchical "Situation Semantics " program . Besides, it constructs a dynamic semantic model-cyclical vibration function , which describes vibration phenomenon of truth value, and consequently solves the problem of semantic paradox.
