Today Penn treebank is already seen as a gold standard of training and evaluating parser. However, if we want NLP to solve many more language problems for our world, only the Penn treebank is not enough, we have to build more treebanks including more languages and genres, but it is a very difficult task, because \"it is unrealistic and almost impossible to train experts in a specialized scientific domain so as to do Penn-style phrase structure annotation to the texts of their expertise.\" [15] If this is true, we have to search a more easily used scheme to annotate the treebank. Perhaps this also explains why there are more and more treebanks based on dependency relations.",

It is understandable to use such non-native dependency for easily comparing the results with other methods. Nevertheless, this approach is problematic, because the fundamental principles of sentence analysis in these two methods are not completely the same. For example, there are too few dependency types in the non-native dependency treebank, which is not acceptable for dependency syntactician.",

Figure 1 gives not only the capacity of a word class governing other word classes through some dependency types, it also provides a capacity of a word class governed by other word classes. These two capacities consist of the general valency pattern of a word class and the pattern is the driven force of generating the dependency relations. Based on the valency pattern, for improving the expressing and explaining capacity of the valency patterns, a new kind of pattern with probabilistic elements is developed. Under the new name \"Weighted Valency Pattern\", the relation between two word classes will not only be described qualitatively, but also be defined quantitatively [8] .",

The first group consists of 20 undergraduates of Chinese linguistics, and the other group is only a graduate of computational linguistics with a background of Chinese linguistics. While everyone of the first group annotates the text with 500 tokens, the graduate has to finish the text with 10000 tokens. Then, two teachers of Chinese linguistics review all annotated texts.

Compared with the national standard of POS tags, we remove some tags, which do not work on the level of syntax. Comparatively with traditional school grammar, we gives some functional (particle) words an important position in the syntax, because they often play a crucial role during determining the dependency relation between two words.Figure 2shows a hierarchy of POS tagset in Chinese 2 .",
