With the development of cognitive sci ence, Perceptual symbol system is broadly used a nd gets many exper iments supports in language compre hension.Evidence from behaviour al and neuroi magi ng studies supports the claim t hat, when understanding language, people perform mental simul ation, and t hat t his simula tion is embodied. When we learn a new t hing, a lot of i mage information st ored in our brain,when the connection bec omes a ki nd of immobili zed "Simulator", we will a utomatic activation of this image information.This research used the experi mental paradigms and resea rch methods of dynamic perceptual r epresentations about spor ts of other countries for reference.The experimental material presented i n the form of hearing some English sentences about the ba ll, after t hat the subj ect s would be asked to j udge the two images whic h presented one afte r another were the same or not. Using the subjects’ res ponse as the dependent variables indicators to compare the Chinese-English bi lingua ls formation and the ti me course characteristic of sports representati on i n the Chinese-Engli sh sentences.The r esearch was divided into two experiment: the fi rst one use d the Chinese sentence s as t he e xperiment material, the subjects had the perception si mulation about the sports’ infor mat ion of Chine se sentences which verify the existence of the dynamic s imulation concept in language understanding;the second one investigate d that at different time intervals( 250 ms, 750 ms, 1500ms)whether the participants have the per ceptual r epresentations or not when using the second language,as well as the activation i s fast and automati c to further discussed of the time causes of dynamic perceptual repre sentations in Chinese-Engli sh sentences.The experimenta l r esults are as follows:1)The bilinguals can mental ly simul ate the motion information during the la nguage comprehension, and it is consistent Chinese sent ence. Mot ion context can highly active pa r ticipant s’ exper ience si mulation.2) The bilinguals can simul ate the moti on information automat ically and none strategically a t the beginning of the process, and this kink of simulation has thest ability and durability.3)The bili nguals just can have the perception simulat ion of sports in t he mid-proces s in English which have significant difference compared with the Chinese sentences, it need more time in the mid- process simulate.4)The bilinguals can have the perception si mulation in the later proces s in English sentences which is different with the Chinese sentences that need more time t o simulate in the late process.5)The resul ts s how that the comprehension strategies of the se cond language of Chinese-English bilingual will be affe cted by the s pecific language learning experience.
