Features: This book covers nearly 1,000 common English words across 24 topics and 600 typical situational dialogues. The common English words are newly combined, with topic categories closely related to daily life. Different expressions in various contexts highlight subtle differences in word meaning. The vocabulary review helps you overcome expression barriers. This is another high-quality English learning material for non-examination purposes. Unlike most vocabulary books on the market that are arranged alphabetically, this book places great emphasis on the practical use of words in communication. Words gain life only through use, and it is only through use that learners can truly remember and master them. Without use, while you may remember a large number of words in the short term, what you remember are merely their corresponding Chinese translations. Over time, these words are easily forgotten. Even if you still have a vague impression, it is difficult to help learners understand the meaning of these words in sentence contexts, let alone use them in speaking and writing. This book lists the words to be learned under 24 topics. These topics involve the most common content or thoughts that arise in our daily communication, such as: discussing whether someone is beautiful or ugly, whether someone is capable or not, whether something is interesting or boring, and so on. Learning vocabulary by topic is more common in English-speaking countries. It provides learners with memory aids rather than simply requiring them to study hard and sweat.
