This paper proposes a new scope calculation system named a phase-based approach. The new system treats scope calculation as a feature-matching operation between more than one interpretable feature related to quantification (henceforth F_<quant>). We call this matching operation F_<quant>-matching. It is shown that the working space of F_<quant>-matching is restricted by a syntactic unit phase. Given the matching operation for scope calculation in C_<HL>, scope interpretation can be derivationally determined In narrow syntax as far as it is permitted by the Phase Impenetrability Condition (PIC) proposed in Chomsky (2001). It is demonstrated that various mysterious scope facts in both English and Japanese are reducible to our phase-based scope system without any other special implement.
