Features: This book provides concise summaries and detailed explanations of the meanings and usages of nearly 6,000 words and over 1,000 phrases found in the "Curriculum Standards" and current mainstream textbooks. It is accompanied by necessary example sentences, compiling them into the "New Curriculum Standard Senior High School English Vocabulary Compendium." Each entry in this dictionary not only includes conventional items such as pronunciation, part of speech, special inflectional changes, definitions, and example sentences but also features a "Notes" section to highlight its learning function. The comprehensive, precise, and detailed interpretation of the above content for each entry undoubtedly helps readers master the usage of English vocabulary at its core, enabling them to feel confident and adept in both practical applications and exams. The dictionary is rich in example sentences, some of which serve to verify and deepen the meaning of the words, while the majority are used to demonstrate usage. The selection of example sentences is deliberate, aiming for brevity and precision, and they are arranged separately from the usage explanations. This allows readers to look up example sentences based on usage or to infer usage from the example sentences, providing them with ample mental space and making the learning process more flexible and proactive. The compilation of this dictionary also adheres to the spirit of keeping pace with the times, grounded in the "Curriculum Standards" but not confined to them, with appropriate extensions. The inclusion of example sentences takes into account various sentence structures and difficulty levels, and it also includes vocabulary that is only required for recognition in some provincial and municipal textbooks. The goal is to make this dictionary a true learning companion that readers can rely on throughout their senior high school years, accessible to those of general proficiency and offering something valuable even to those with higher levels of expertise.
