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).歡迎使用(yong)《劍橋(qiao)高階英(ying)語(yu)學(xue)習(xi)詞典(dian)》的(de)第二版(ban)。英(ying)語(yu)不(bu)斷地發展演變,每(mei)時每(mei)刻都(dou)有新詞成為其(qi)(qi)中的(de)一員。很難相信,諸(zhu)如webs-ite,text messaging和(he)realityTV之(zhi)類現已廣泛使用(yong)的(de)詞匯,就在(zai)幾年前(qian)還(huan)鮮為人知(zhi)。詞典(dian)必(bi)須(xu)跟上這些變化,本版(ban)便收錄(lu)了大量的(de)新詞。當然,其(qi)(qi)中很多新詞來自(zi)計算機和(he)因特網領(ling)域(yu)(例(li)如blog,whiteboard, graphics card),但(dan)也有不(bu)少(shao)來自(zi)其(qi)(qi)他領(ling)域(yu)(例(li)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(ru)詞(ci)(ci)頻信息(xi)系統是本版詞(ci)(ci)典的(de)(de)(de)(de)(de)一(yi)大(da)特(te)點(dian)。其重要意義(yi)在于,它不僅顯示(shi)了(le)(le)(le)(le)詞(ci)(ci)語(yu)(yu)的(de)(de)(de)(de)(de)相對重要性,還顯示(shi)了(le)(le)(le)(le)各(ge)義(yi)項(xiang)以及每個短語(yu)(yu)的(de)(de)(de)(de)(de)相對重要性。為了(le)(le)(le)(le)開發這個系統,研究人員使用(yong)了(le)(le)(le)(le)我們語(yu)(yu)料庫(ku)中(zhong)的(de)(de)(de)(de)(de)語(yu)(yu)料。他們從(cong)中(zhong)選出了(le)(le)(le)(le)所有的(de)(de)(de)(de)(de)高頻詞(ci)(ci)語(yu)(yu),然(ran)后對各(ge)詞(ci)(ci)語(yu)(yu)的(de)(de)(de)(de)(de)例(li)證進行編碼,從(cong)而計算(suan)出不同義(yi)項(xiang)的(de)(de)(de)(de)(de)使用(yong)頻率。
The resulting system gives students a clear guide to the mostimportant words and meanings to learn最終生成的(de)詞頻系統(tong)清晰地告訴學生們(men)學習哪些(xie)(xie)詞匯、哪些(xie)(xie)義項(xiang)才是最重要(yao)的(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(you)E(Essential基礎詞(ci)匯)的(de)義項是每(mei)個人(ren)為達到有(you)效(xiao)交(jiao)流的(de)目(mu)的(de)必須掌握的(de)詞(ci)語(yu)。它們要(yao)么(me)(me)極(ji)為常用(在語(yu)料庫中一般每(mei)千(qian)萬詞(ci)出現400次以上),要(yao)么(me)(me)表示核心(xin)概念(例如asleep)。這類(lei)義項約有(you)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.標有(you)(you)I(Improver中(zhong)級詞匯(hui)(hui))的(de)(de)義項(xiang)在(zai)母(mu)語為英語的(de)(de)人群(qun)中(zhong)也很常(chang)用(在(zai)語料庫中(zhong)一(yi)(yi)(yi)般每(mei)千萬詞出現200~400次)。和基礎詞匯(hui)(hui)一(yi)(yi)(yi)樣,中(zhong)級詞匯(hui)(hui)包括(kuo)一(yi)(yi)(yi)些表示有(you)(you)用概念的(de)(de)不(bu)太常(chang)用的(de)(de)詞匯(hui)(hui)。這(zhe)類義項(xiang)約有(you)(you)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(ying)之處還有(you):它為常用詞匯(hui)設置(zhi)(zhi)了400個簡(jian)明的搭配(pei)信息框(kuang)。英語(yu)要達到(dao)流(liu)利程度,知道如(ru)何將一個詞置(zhi)(zhi)于語(yu)境中(zhong)(zhong)至關重要。這些搭配(pei)信息框(kuang)就是對(dui)例句中(zhong)(zhong)以(yi)粗體字顯示(shi)的25000個搭配(pei)的有(you)益補充。
