Clauses that are parallel in form and meaning show processing advantages in ellipsis and coordination structures (Frazier et al. 1984; Kehler 2000; Carlson 2002). However, the constructions that have been used to show a parallelism advantage do not always require a strong semantic relationship between clauses. We present two eye tracking while reading studies on focus-sensitive coordination structures, an understudied form of ellipsis which requires the generation of a contextually salient semantic relation or scale between conjuncts. However, when the remnant of ellipsis lacks an overt correlate in the matrix clause and must be "sprouted" in the ellipsis site, the relation between clauses is simplified to entailment. Instead of facilitation for sentences with an entailment relation between clauses, our online processing results suggest that violating Parallelism is costly, even when doing so could ease the semantic relations required for interpretation.
在形式和意义上平行的从句在省略和并列结构中显示出加工优势（弗雷泽等人，1984年；凯勒，2000年；卡尔森，2002年）。然而，用于显示平行优势的结构并不总是要求从句之间有很强的语义关系。我们呈现了两项阅读时的眼动追踪研究，研究对象是焦点敏感并列结构，这是一种研究较少的省略形式，它要求在连接成分之间生成上下文显著的语义关系或量级。然而，当省略的残余部分在主句中缺乏明显的关联项且必须在省略位置“萌生”时，从句之间的关系就简化为蕴含关系。我们的在线加工结果表明，违反平行性的代价高昂，即使这样做可以简化解释所需的语义关系，而不是促进具有从句间蕴含关系的句子的加工。
