The vocabulary is comprehensive, including all words and phrases in "The Requirements" and some advanced words. Each word is meticulously explained, with countable (C) and uncountable (U) nouns marked for nouns, past tense and past participle marked for irregular verbs, and synonyms and antonyms added under the definitions to facilitate memory consolidation. Detailed explanations are provided on word usage, collocations, and distinctions. New and abundant example sentences are added under familiar words with unfamiliar meanings, difficult words, and all phrases, including many famous quotes, excellent sentences, and proverbs, to leverage contextual memory and help readers not only memorize but also use the words effectively. In short, we strive to achieve comprehensiveness, accuracy, and meticulousness.
At the strong request of many readers, this revision has added audio content, including nearly a thousand sentences of words and spoken examples (marked with parentheses before each sentence), read by professional native American speakers, with natural and pure pronunciation. This allows readers to memorize while listening, combining reading and listening to improve vocabulary and listening/speaking skills simultaneously.
