类似地，在（1a）中，JohnF上的焦点F可以仅跨关系从句岛与焦点敏感运算符相关联。焦点和焦点敏感算子之间的联系可以在无限长的距离上建立，并且可以被证明不受各种进一步的岛屿约束的影响。这种关注导致Rooth（1985）发展了焦点解释的原位理论，在该理论中，聚焦的成分如（Ia）中的JohnF不需要经历到焦点敏感算子的位置的移动。本文第一节回顾了Kratzer（1991）关于这一现场记录的版本的一个变体。该分析做出了一个错误的预测，即焦点敏感操作符无选择地绑定其范围内的所有焦点。第2节设计了一个理论，解决了这个问题，治疗焦点敏感的运营商作为选择性的粘合剂coindexed与焦点，他们是相关联的。在第三节中，我们将这一理论应用于多焦点问题。最后，第4节比较了所提出的系统的表达能力，其他帐户的焦点解释。
Similarly, in ( 1 a), the focus F on JohnF may associate with the focus sensitive operator only across a relative clause island. The link between a focus and a focus sensitive operator can be established over indefinitely long distances and can be shown to be impervious to various further island constraints . This concern has led Rooth ( 1 985) to develop an in situ theory of focus interpretation, in which a focused constituent such as JohnF in ( I a) need not undergo a movement to the position of the focus sensitive operator. A variant of Kratzer' s ( 1 99 1 ) version of this in situ account is reviewed in Section I of this paper. This analysis makes an incorrect prediction that a focus sensitive operator unselective1y binds all the foci in its scope. Section 2 devises a theory which solves this problem by treating focus sensitive operators as selective binders coindexed with the foci with which they are associated . This theory is applied to multiple focus in Section 3 . Finally, Section 4 compares the expressive power of the proposed system to that of other accounts of focus interpretation.
