    <Paragraph position="0"> In this paper, we evaluated the quality of anaphors in the texts generated by using various rules. As shown in the results of comparisons between the anaphors created by computers and native speakers of Chinese, the individual constraints we collected in our previous studies (YM94; YM95; Yeh95), seem to be effective to a large extent in the generation of anaphors in Chinese. Also they can be implemented successfully. The comparison results suggest that a Chinese natural language generation system employing the combination of these constraints might produce more effective anaphors than one using individual constraints. Although the average matching rates between the different rules and the speakers are lower than those from our previous experiments based on human-generated texts, this at least in part reflects considerable disagreement among the speakers themselves.</Paragraph>
