The reconstruction of shared elements in RNR constructions can make us find out the grammaticality of each conjunct clause. When we separate each conjunct clause, the grammaticality of the first conjunct clause doesn’t matter. However, the ungrammaticality of the first conjunct clause needs our much attention. For example, there are ‘that clause’ which cannot be taken as complement, negative polarity items without licenser, disagreement relation in the first conjunct clauses. It will be shown how these ungrammatical sentences are ommitted in RNR constructions. And when ‘distributor and number’ contained-shared elements, especially ‘same and different’ are reconstructed, the problems unexpected happen in the aspect of interpretation. To solve the above problems, mid-way conjunction analysis proposed by Park(2005) will be employed.
