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)迎使用《劍(jian)橋高(gao)階(jie)英(ying)語學習詞(ci)(ci)典》的(de)(de)第二(er)版。英(ying)語不斷地(di)發展(zhan)演變,每時每刻(ke)都(dou)有新(xin)詞(ci)(ci)成為其(qi)中的(de)(de)一員。很(hen)難相信(xin),諸如(ru)webs-ite,text messaging和realityTV之(zhi)類現(xian)已廣泛(fan)使用的(de)(de)詞(ci)(ci)匯,就在幾(ji)年前還鮮為人知。詞(ci)(ci)典必(bi)須跟上這(zhe)些(xie)變化(hua),本版便收錄(lu)了大量的(de)(de)新(xin)詞(ci)(ci)。當然,其(qi)中很(hen)多新(xin)詞(ci)(ci)來(lai)自計算(suan)機和因(yin)特(te)網領域(yu)(例如(ru)blog,whiteboard, graphics card),但也有不少來(lai)自其(qi)他領域(yu)(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.引入詞頻(pin)信息系(xi)統是(shi)本版(ban)詞典的(de)一大特點(dian)。其重(zhong)要意義在于,它不僅顯示了(le)詞語(yu)的(de)相對重(zhong)要性,還顯示了(le)各義項以及每個短語(yu)的(de)相對重(zhong)要性。為了(le)開(kai)發這個系(xi)統,研究人員使用了(le)我們語(yu)料庫中(zhong)的(de)語(yu)料。他們從中(zhong)選(xuan)出了(le)所有的(de)高頻(pin)詞語(yu),然后(hou)對各詞語(yu)的(de)例證進行編碼(ma),從而計算出不同義項的(de)使用頻(pin)率(lv)。
The resulting system gives students a clear guide to the mostimportant words and meanings to learn最終(zhong)生(sheng)成的詞(ci)頻系統清晰(xi)地告訴學(xue)生(sheng)們學(xue)習哪些詞(ci)匯、哪些義項才(cai)是最重(zhong)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(you)E(Essential基礎詞匯(hui))的(de)義項是(shi)每個(ge)人為達(da)到有(you)效交流(liu)的(de)目(mu)的(de)必(bi)須掌握(wo)的(de)詞語。它們要么極為常用(在語料庫中一般每千萬詞出現400次(ci)以上),要么表(biao)示核心概念(例如asleep)。這類義項約有(you)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(biao)有(you)I(Improver中級詞(ci)匯(hui))的(de)(de)義(yi)項在母(mu)語(yu)為英語(yu)的(de)(de)人群中也很常(chang)用(yong)(在語(yu)料(liao)庫中一般每千萬詞(ci)出現(xian)200~400次(ci))。和基礎詞(ci)匯(hui)一樣,中級詞(ci)匯(hui)包括一些表示有(you)用(yong)概念的(de)(de)不太(tai)常(chang)用(yong)的(de)(de)詞(ci)匯(hui)。這類義(yi)項約(yue)有(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(de)新(xin)穎之處還有:它(ta)為常用詞匯設置(zhi)了400個(ge)簡明的(de)搭配信息(xi)框(kuang)。英(ying)語要達(da)到流利程度,知道如何將一個(ge)詞置(zhi)于語境中(zhong)至關重要。這些搭配信息(xi)框(kuang)就(jiu)是對例(li)句(ju)中(zhong)以(yi)粗體字(zi)顯示的(de)25000個(ge)搭配的(de)有益補(bu)充。
