Welcome to the second edition of the Cambridge AdvancedLearner's Dictionary. English is constantly evolving with new wordscoming into the language all the time. It is hard to believe thatwords like‘website’‘text messaging’or‘reality TV’were unknownto most people just a few years ago, when now they are in commonuse. Dictionaries have to keep up with thi-s change, and thisedition contains a wealth of new vocabulary. Of course, a lot of itcomes from the world of computers and the Internet (e.g. blog,whiteboard, graphics card), but many other areas are represented(e.g. speed dating, superbug, hoody).歡(huan)迎使(shi)用(yong)《劍橋高階英語(yu)學(xue)習詞(ci)(ci)(ci)典》的(de)(de)第二版。英語(yu)不斷地發展演變,每時(shi)每刻都有(you)新(xin)詞(ci)(ci)(ci)成為其(qi)中的(de)(de)一(yi)員(yuan)。很(hen)難相(xiang)信,諸如(ru)webs-ite,text messaging和realityTV之類現已廣泛使(shi)用(yong)的(de)(de)詞(ci)(ci)(ci)匯,就在幾年前還(huan)鮮為人知。詞(ci)(ci)(ci)典必須跟上這些變化,本版便(bian)收錄(lu)了(le)大(da)量的(de)(de)新(xin)詞(ci)(ci)(ci)。當然,其(qi)中很(hen)多新(xin)詞(ci)(ci)(ci)來自計(ji)算機和因(yin)特網領域(例如(ru)blog,whiteboard, graphics card),但也有(you)不少來自其(qi)他(ta)領域(例如(ru)speed datin-g, superbug,hoody)。
A major feature of this edition is the introduction of theFrequency Information system. It is special because it shows th-erelative importance not only of words but also of their meanings,and of individual phrases. To create this system, res-earchers useddata from our corpus. They extracted all the high-frequency wordsand then coded examples of them to work o-ut the frequency of theirdifferent meanings.引入詞(ci)(ci)頻信息系(xi)統是本(ben)版詞(ci)(ci)典的一大(da)特點。其重(zhong)要意義(yi)在(zai)于,它不(bu)僅顯(xian)示了(le)詞(ci)(ci)語(yu)(yu)(yu)的相對重(zhong)要性,還顯(xian)示了(le)各(ge)義(yi)項以及每個(ge)短語(yu)(yu)(yu)的相對重(zhong)要性。為了(le)開發這(zhe)個(ge)系(xi)統,研究人員使(shi)用(yong)了(le)我們語(yu)(yu)(yu)料庫中的語(yu)(yu)(yu)料。他們從中選出了(le)所有的高頻詞(ci)(ci)語(yu)(yu)(yu),然后對各(ge)詞(ci)(ci)語(yu)(yu)(yu)的例(li)證進行編碼,從而(er)計(ji)算出不(bu)同(tong)義(yi)項的使(shi)用(yong)頻率。
The resulting system gives students a clear guide to the mostimportant words and meanings to learn最(zui)終生成的詞頻(pin)系統清(qing)晰地告訴學生們(men)學習(xi)哪(na)些詞匯、哪(na)些義(yi)項才是最(zui)重要的:
Meanings marked are words which everyone needs to know inorder to communicate effectively. They areeither extremelycomm-on (usually over 400 occurrences per 10 million corpus words),or they express core concepts (e.g. asleep). There are abo-ut 4900of these meanings. 標有E(Essential基礎詞匯)的(de)義項(xiang)是每個人為達到(dao)有效交流的(de)目的(de)必(bi)須掌(zhang)握的(de)詞語(yu)。它們要么(me)極(ji)為常用(yong)(在語(yu)料庫中(zhong)一般每千萬詞出現400次以(yi)上),要么(me)表(biao)示核(he)心概念(例如asleep)。這類義項(xiang)約有4900個。
Meanings marked are also common in native speaker English(typically between 200~400 occurrences per 10m corpus words). Li-keEssential, this band can include less common words which expressuseful concepts. There are about 3300 of these meanin-gs.標(biao)有I(Improver中級詞(ci)(ci)匯(hui))的(de)義項在母(mu)語(yu)為英語(yu)的(de)人群中也很常(chang)用(yong)(在語(yu)料庫中一般每(mei)千萬詞(ci)(ci)出現(xian)200~400次)。和基礎(chu)詞(ci)(ci)匯(hui)一樣,中級詞(ci)(ci)匯(hui)包括(kuo)一些表示(shi)有用(yong)概(gai)念的(de)不太(tai)常(chang)用(yong)的(de)詞(ci)(ci)匯(hui)。這(zhe)類義項約(yue)有3300個。
Something else new in this edition is the 400 boxes givingconcise collocation information for common words. Knowing how t-oput a word in context is vital for fluent English, and these boxessupplement the 25 000 collocations shown in heavy ty-pe in theexample sentences.本(ben)版詞(ci)典的(de)新穎之處還有(you):它為常(chang)用詞(ci)匯設(she)置了400個簡(jian)明的(de)搭(da)配(pei)信息(xi)框(kuang)。英語要(yao)達到流利程度,知道如何(he)將一個詞(ci)置于語境中(zhong)至關(guan)重要(yao)。這(zhe)些(xie)搭(da)配(pei)信息(xi)框(kuang)就是(shi)對(dui)例(li)句中(zhong)以粗體字(zi)顯(xian)示(shi)的(de)25000個搭(da)配(pei)的(de)有(you)益補充。
