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).歡迎使(shi)用(yong)《劍橋高(gao)階英(ying)語(yu)學習詞(ci)(ci)(ci)典(dian)》的第二版(ban)。英(ying)語(yu)不(bu)斷地發展(zhan)演變,每(mei)時(shi)每(mei)刻(ke)都有(you)新詞(ci)(ci)(ci)成(cheng)為(wei)其(qi)中(zhong)的一(yi)員(yuan)。很(hen)難相(xiang)信,諸如webs-ite,text messaging和(he)realityTV之類現已廣泛使(shi)用(yong)的詞(ci)(ci)(ci)匯,就在(zai)幾年(nian)前(qian)還鮮為(wei)人知。詞(ci)(ci)(ci)典(dian)必須跟上這些變化,本版(ban)便收錄了大量(liang)的新詞(ci)(ci)(ci)。當然(ran),其(qi)中(zhong)很(hen)多新詞(ci)(ci)(ci)來自計算(suan)機(ji)和(he)因特(te)網領域(例如blog,whiteboard, graphics card),但也有(you)不(bu)少來自其(qi)他(ta)領域(例如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)頻信息(xi)系統是本版詞(ci)典的一(yi)大特點。其重(zhong)要(yao)意義在于,它不(bu)僅顯示了(le)詞(ci)語(yu)的相對重(zhong)要(yao)性(xing),還顯示了(le)各義項以及(ji)每個短語(yu)的相對重(zhong)要(yao)性(xing)。為了(le)開(kai)發這(zhe)個系統,研究人員使用了(le)我們(men)語(yu)料(liao)庫中的語(yu)料(liao)。他們(men)從中選出了(le)所有的高頻詞(ci)語(yu),然(ran)后對各詞(ci)語(yu)的例(li)證進行(xing)編(bian)碼,從而計算出不(bu)同義項的使用頻率(lv)。
The resulting system gives students a clear guide to the mostimportant words and meanings to learn最終生成(cheng)的(de)(de)詞頻系統清晰地(di)告(gao)訴學(xue)生們學(xue)習哪些詞匯(hui)、哪些義項才是最重要的(de)(de):
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(ci)匯(hui))的(de)義項是每個(ge)人(ren)為達(da)到有效交流的(de)目的(de)必須掌握的(de)詞(ci)語。它們要么極為常用(在(zai)語料庫(ku)中(zhong)一般每千萬詞(ci)出現(xian)400次(ci)以上),要么表(biao)示核心概念(例如asleep)。這(zhe)類義項約(yue)有4900個(ge)。
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.標有I(Improver中級(ji)詞匯(hui))的(de)(de)義項在母語為(wei)英語的(de)(de)人群中也(ye)很常用(yong)(在語料庫中一般每千萬詞出現200~400次)。和基礎詞匯(hui)一樣,中級(ji)詞匯(hui)包括一些表示有用(yong)概念的(de)(de)不太常用(yong)的(de)(de)詞匯(hui)。這(zhe)類義項約有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.本版詞典的新穎之(zhi)處(chu)還有(you):它為常用(yong)詞匯設置(zhi)了400個(ge)(ge)簡明的搭配信息(xi)框。英語(yu)要(yao)達到流利程度,知道(dao)如何將一(yi)個(ge)(ge)詞置(zhi)于語(yu)境中至關重(zhong)要(yao)。這些搭配信息(xi)框就是對例句(ju)中以粗(cu)體字顯示的25000個(ge)(ge)搭配的有(you)益補充(chong)。
