This thesis treats the structure of "Adjectives+ dynamic auxiliaries" as the basic object of the expedition , such as " whiten the beard", "be faster two seconds than me",,etc. The arena of linguistics has quite a lot of controversy according to the issue of part of speech of this structure. Based on the summary and the theory learned from the predecessors, this thesis limits the researching scope as large-scale close language materials, finds 378 interrelated adjectives in the language materials and treats them as the object of expedition to analyze and research. It considers "A" as an adjective and classifies "A" for the second time, getting two secondary classifications, "verbalized adjectives" and "dynamic adjectives". This thesis is theoretically based on three flats, using semantics, grammar , and application of language as the main methods, combining the means of statistics and analysis, analyzing the structure of "Adjectives +dynamic auxiliaries" thoroughly and systematically .It is divided into the following five kinds of basical structure : " adj + 'le'"(without other composition); " adj + 'le' + bare noun"; " adj + 'le' + attribute + noun"; " adj + 'le' + noun phrase + complement"; "adj + 'le' + complement ", respectively and deeply probing its semantic, grammatical and language-applicant function. It is hoped to offer some theoretical help for the classification of part of speech of the adjectives and verbs and make a little contribution to fertilizing the theory of adjectives' syntax function. Dynamic auxiliary "le" is recognized as the mark of modern language style, then the style characteristics it embodies attaching to the back of adjectives is also the emphasis of this thesis. This thesis deeply studied two basical types of aspect of"A+le" structure: " realization—continual" aspect and " realization——incontinual"aspect. Furthermore, it also discusses the characteristics of tense of "Adjectives+ dynamic auxiliaries",and summarizes four types of tense. This thesis finishes up with a vocabulary, which is consisted of all the adjectives touched on in this thesis and it is able to reflect the dynamic nature of adjectives in some degree.
