Features: With the inspiration of China's entry into the WTO and the successful bid for the 2008 Beijing Olympics, a unprecedentedly extensive and in-depth wave of English learning has further surged across the country. To master English well, apart from cultivating understanding, it is also necessary to enhance expressive ability in English. For this purpose, in addition to having a suitable English-Chinese dictionary, a suitable Chinese-English dictionary is also required. In light of this, we have compiled this reference book primarily aimed at high school and college students and self-learners of English, but also suitable for intermediate and advanced working professionals and foreigners learning Chinese. The book includes over 4,200 single-word entries, focusing mainly on commonly and secondarily used characters, ensuring a wide applicability despite the limited word count. It also includes over 26,000 multi-word entries, emphasizing frequently used and widely applicable words in daily life, work, and study, including some common encyclopedic terms and idioms that reflect Chinese cultural characteristics. Particularly, the book incorporates over 2,000 newly popular and relatively stable terms that have become widespread in recent years.
