Features: This dictionary is primarily based on the well-established and advanced "Cambridge Young Learners English" textbooks. Building upon the over 1,000 words in the Cambridge curriculum, it also includes an additional 500 commonly used words for primary school students. The entries and example sentences have been rigorously and scientifically selected to align with the actual needs of Chinese young learners of English. The book features nearly 1,000 hand-drawn illustrations, making it visually engaging. The dictionary not only covers all the vocabulary that primary school students need to master but also specifically considers the practical needs of preschool children. It is the first dictionary in China to be explicitly designed for young learners with a clear focus. Instead of categorizing entries by grade level, the dictionary uses a more scientific age-based progression, generally targeting children aged 2-12. Due to the influence of the Cambridge curriculum, the spelling, pronunciation, and usage of words in this dictionary are based on British English.
