Features: Compared to similar guidebooks, this book has the following characteristics:
1. Categorized selection, targeted learning. Based on years of teaching experience, the best way to memorize words is: after receiving the vocabulary list, first review all the words and highlight the key and difficult ones. These words generally have a high frequency in exams and require multi-angle focused memorization. The rest of the familiar words are handled generally, that is, to master the key words first, and then review the basic vocabulary. According to this principle, combined with the requirements of the latest teaching syllabus, this book includes all the frequently tested and difficult-to-remember words in the new syllabus, providing multi-angle focused explanations for each word. While the more basic and well-known words are only given key definitions and common collocations, which are listed at the end of the book for readers to memorize quickly; simple words learned in junior high school are no longer included. This avoids the flaw of general vocabulary guidebooks that provide superficial explanations for all words without highlighting the key points.
2. High-frequency words, focused analysis. This book provides detailed analysis and interpretation of vocabulary from multiple angles to help readers firmly grasp the words. Each entry generally contains the following items:
[Dual Definitions] The English definitions of words in this book are unique, using the definition method of Collins Cobuild Essential English Dictionary (The Collins Cobuild Essential English Dictionary).
[Word Formation] An analysis of word formation is provided, including the root, prefix, suffix, and even etymology of most words, so that readers can not only remember the words but also expand their vocabulary easily by applying the learned word formation rules and guessing the meanings.
[Collocations] In this section, the book avoids the usual method of using sentences as examples and instead uses concise and effective common collocations or phrases to illustrate the different parts of speech and meanings of the words, reflecting the usage, saving readers' time, and making it easier to memorize.
[Differences] The book summarizes synonyms or near-synonyms from the syllabus vocabulary list under the first appearing entry, explaining their similarities in general meaning and differences in specific meanings and usage in Chinese, and providing English examples;
[Real Exam Questions] In the real exam questions section, most of the questions from the CET-4 and CET-6 exams since 1989 that tested the vocabulary of this level are selected, so that candidates can grasp the question types and patterns of the corresponding vocabulary.
