"Ba" sentence is a basic sentence pattern in modern Chinese. Due to the complex syntax structure and sentence semantic, it has been paid much attention by the academic circle. This paper attempts to study the syntax structure and sentence semantic of "Ba" sentence from the view of markedness theory."Ba" as the research object, we research the motives that result to "Ba" to be a preposition mark from a verb. First, we find that at different periods "Ba" has different mark functions, which corresponds to different syntax structure. Then, we use the relevant theories of situation semantics to analyze1.410corpora collected from Peking University corpus. We sum up that "Ba" marks different scenarios participants, corresponding to different scenarios semantic mode. Through the synchronic and diachronic levels of study to verify our conclusion, the change of syntax structure and sentence semantic with "Ba" s grammaticalization is synchronized. In other words, the three have corresponding relationship."Ba" sentence is like a gorgeous brilliant pearl reflecting the Han nationality cognitive wisdom. From the starting point of information processing and teaching Chinese as a foreign language, this paper studies "Ba" in three chapters so as to verify that the mark functions of "Ba" is the main reason for "Ba" sentence’s complicated sentence semantic.In the first chapter, we study the motives that contribute to the process of "Ba" becoming prepositions mark. We research from the aspects of semantic foundation, the change of syntactic environment and the competition of "Jiang" and "Ba" respectively. Based on this, we master the different historical periods of "Ba"’s falsified degree, and the corresponding syntax structure and the mark role in the sentence patterns.In the second chapter, we study the preposition "Ba"’s structure function. The highlight focus function, the limit of verbs and the position limits of negative words from three aspects are mainly discussed.In the third chapter, we use the related knowledge and method about the situation semantics to reanalyze the syntax structure and semantic features of "Ba" sentence, and sum up that "Ba" marks different scenarios participants corresponding to different scenarios semantic mode.In the conclusion part, we summarize the findings of this topic, and list the innovation points and limitations.
