Idealized cognitive model (ICM) is a second-generation cognitive linguists Lakoff in 1982 and 1987, based on the experience of philosophy and prototype category theory proposition-containing structure, image schema, metaphor mapping and map metonymy four kinds of principles, in order to explain the concept of structure, semantic category and scope. Previous scholars believe that the ICM is limited to a discussion of the prototype areas, but we found three major problems: ICM one of the four principles of \characteristics, can be traced back to objectivism based first-generation cognitive science theoretical framework. Second, ICM put forward in order to solve the the prototype category hierarchy problem, ICM phase cognitive model (CM) with a hierarchical, but can not be divorced from the theoretical basis of the prototype category with linear features. Again, ICM with CM's relationship is not self-consistent, on the one hand, the universal character of the CM ICM, ICM is based the CM family-similarity differences sum. This article last to make the following conclusions: ICM from the Prototype Theory certain features, but it also contains the classic areas; theory can be traced back to classical logic; construct a non-self-consistent theory. Cognitive linguistics focused on the non-objectivity of the ICM the mental level prototype and ICM Category Character proposed their views, but not discussed and associated contrast ICM subjective level system and objective level (the classical category level system) and ICM objectivity traced back to the classical category theory, jump out of a second-generation cognitive linguistics and experience philosophical background. To this end, we to ICM proposition principles as the basis of a clearer interpretation of trying the machine behind its production. At the same time, the hope that to inject trace new vigor for cognitive linguistics. We hope that through this study, to see the signs and trends in the development of cognitive linguistics. The one hand, the cognitive linguistics from objectivism, classical category theory as the theoretical background of the first generation of cognitive science, turned to the second-generation cognitive science background to experience the philosophy and Prototype Theory and principle extended to ICM represented by a series of high-level cognitive style, in addition to the continuous improvement process, we have also seen in the theory of the structure of language, cognition, thinking, knowledge sublimation process from the subjective, cognitive interference , from the flesh, a research direction towards a more abstract and polished. This article is a total of five chapters, the main contents are as follows: the first chapter \Introduces the object of this paper, the research purpose, analysis methods and thesis overall layout. Chapter II Literature Review. \Summary ICM and its theory, theory focuses on the analysis of their contact. Chapter theoretical framework. Includes three parts: First, ICM theory demands and defects; Second, ICM's level - mental level characteristics and the classical category level characteristics; solve the above problem, the theoretical framework presented in this article - to explore ICM construct a contradiction. Chapter demonstrate the contradictory nature of the ICM. Respectively, from the three interfaces discussed in detail: First, ICM objectivity and non-objectivity characteristics, focusing on the objectivity; Second, ICM hierarchy and linear characteristics, focusing on the linear characteristics; Third, ICM prototype and classic areas characteristics, focusing on the characteristics of the classic areas. Fifth chapter, \Exploration ICM proposition structure of the principle of non-objectivity and objectivity, linear and hierarchical characteristics, the characteristics of the prototype and classic areas demonstrated a the ICM theory of Constructivism is contradictory. And forecast the development tendency of the the ICM theory development tendency and the second generation of cognitive linguistics.
