Active Learning – Emphasizing memorization: The book condenses word items, using unfamiliar words to remember familiar ones and vice versa, expanding associations, and diversifying memory.
Active Application – Emphasizing vocabulary usage: When illustrating the usage of word items, the book primarily adopts the form of phrases to provide usage examples for each Chinese definition of the word item. Special attention is paid to explaining the usage of word senses, extended meanings, and semantic shifts, as well as the differences in expression between Chinese and English during the language conversion process.
