The quota statistics method is not new, but was seldom utilized massively in studies of ancient Chinese grammar. On the one hand this thesis hoped it to be possible to make the beneficial attempt, unifying the quota and the qualitative method, on the other hand, this thesis wanted to explord the unique method and pattern for the studies of word order type in Chinese.In the content, this thesis chose the attribute word order, the preposition word order and the comparison sentences word order as three senate items.

The second to the forth chapters described separately the appearance and the characteristics of the word order of the attribute senate item, the preposition senate item and the comparison sentences senate item in "The Biography of Awaking World Marriage". Research patterns of these three chapters were approximately same. In each chapter, the related senate item was first reasonable classified, then related word order rules were summarized from the statistical datas.The fifth chapter was based on the research results of the former chapters, discussing the word order of comparison sentences from the Tang Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty on the Chinese history stratification plane. Moreover, the fifth chapter also applied the research results of the word order rules to distinguish the question that the author of "The Biography of Awaking World Marriage" was not Pu Songling.Because of limits of time and the research level, this thesis was insufficient in the oversight and the proofs. As the research of word order type of the ancient and the modern Chinese has a bright future, it was hoped that further research in this direction would be made in the future. It could make up the insufficient section in this thesis, and could make the beneficial exploration to fill the blank of Chinese word order studies.
