第一部分 Chapter Ⅰ
英语词汇的概论(A general survey of English vocabulary)
Bloomfield 1933 中对词的定义是,每个单词都是最小的自由词。然而这个定义不够全面,存在着缺陷。首先,不是所有的单词都可以独立出现,如 the ,a ,my 这些单词单独出现则没有具体意义。另外,Bloomfield的定义侧重在于语法(syntax)却没有涉及到词的意义。随着词汇学的发展跟完善,人们给词下了较为完整的定义。“词,今指语言组织中的基础单位,能独立运用,具有声音、意义和语法功能。”(《辞海》1984(上)375页,上海辞书出版社)
一种语言中所有的单词汇集起来便构成了该语言的词库。纵观英语的发展历史,我们可以知道,大多数的英语词汇都是外来词,它从拉丁语,法语和希腊语等语言中汲取词汇,不断的扩充自己,为己所用。特别是第二次世界大战之后,英语词汇得到了空前的发展。现代英语词汇快速发展的原因主要有四方面。一是科学技术的快速发展,二是社会经济的全球化,三是英语国家的政治和文化变化,最后是其他文化和语言对英语的强烈影响。
英语词汇是由各种不同类型的单词组成,而这些单词有着不同的分类标准。根据词的起源可以分为本族语和外来语;根据使用水平可以分为普通词汇,文学词汇。口头词汇,俚语以及科学术语。基础语库的基本特征是具有民族特征,稳定性,构词的能力和搭配能力。

英语词汇学学习方法
学习方法
本课程基本上是一门知识性的课程,需要学生记忆的内容比较多。在学习方法上应注意以下几点:
1)宏观与微观相结合
学生应该首先在宏观上对该课程的内容有所了解。在学习时,首先要仔细阅读目录。目录是全书内容的高度浓缩和概括,它不仅包括本学科所涉及到的主要内容,而且也涉及到内容与内容之间的联系。熟悉目录的内容之后,再对课本进行通读,从整体上把握每章,每节的意思。在整体把握课本内容的基础上,再从宏观进入到微观学习。通过细节的学习来加深对课本宏观的把握,而对课本宏观的把握又会有助于课本细节的学习,做到“既见森林,又见树木。”
2)理解与记忆相结合
在学习过程中要注意抓住重点,着重掌握有关的基本概念和基本理论,在理解、消化的基础上记忆,切忌死记硬背。没有理解的记忆是不可能长久的。既使死记硬背了某个理论,也不能很好地灵活地使用它来解决问题。要理解英语词汇学的基本概念,就要注意分析课本中围绕基本概念所提供的各种例子,多思考,细明辨。只有在理解的基础之上记忆才会变的容易长久。学习者应能结合自己的语言实践提供更多的例子来解释和理解有关的理论,以达到理论和实践的结合。
3)比较与对比相结合
比较和对比是该课程中不可缺少的两种方法。通过比较,可以找出不同概念之间的相似之处,通过对比可以理解不同概念之间的相异性。比较和对比的结合有助于弄清概念之间的异同和内在的联系。
4)阅读与练习相结合
阅读要与练习相结合。只做练习,不阅读,不能在本质上把握英语词汇学内容。练习是检测学生掌握主要内容的手段。通过做练习,学生能够清楚地知道哪些内容已经搞清楚,哪些内容还需要进一步研读。学习语言学的目的不只是在于了解词汇学所涉及的理论与方法,更重要的是运用这些理论与方法,而做练习本身也是检测学生利用所学内容解决问题的手段。

8.1.2 Linguistic Context
Linguistic context is the linguistic enviornment, in which a linguistic unit is used. A linguistic unit can be a phrase, a clause, a sentence, a paragraph, a passage, a chapter in a book or even a book.

Perhaps the most startling theory to come out of kinesics, the study of body movement, was suggested by Professor Bird-whistell. 身势学 (definition)
8.2 The Role of Context
8.2.1 Elimination of Ambiguity
Ambiguity often arises due to polysemy and homonymy. When a word with multiple meanings is used in inadequate context, it creates ambiguity, e.g.
8.2.1 Elimination of Ambiguity
He is a hard businessman. hard: 1) hard-working 2) difficult He is a hard businessman to deal with.
8.2.1 Elimination of Ambiguity
The meaning of make is affected by the grammatical structures. This is called grammatical context. Grammatical context is the grammatical structures in which a particular linguistic item is used.
8.2.3 Provision of Clues for Inferring Word-meaning
Context may prove extremely valuable in guessing the meanings of new words. In many cases, when a new word (thought to be) appears for the first time, the author generally manages to give hints.
8.1 Types of Context
8.1.1 Extra-linguistic Context
Extra-linguistic context is context beyond language, but physical situation, in which language is used: the people, time, place, and even the whole cultural background, e.g.
[47] The ball was good. 1) dancing party 2) round object Revised: The ball was good. I never danced like this before. The ball was good. I used it for a long time.
8.2.3 Provision of Clues for Inferring Word-meaning
The hints (context clues) might help the readers to grasp the concept or understand the idea. Context clues vary a great deal. There are six or seven major context clues.
8.1.1 Extra-linguistic Context
weekend (length of time) 1) one day (1980s) 2) one day and half (1995) 3) two days (1996) 4) two days and half (some places)
8.2.3 Provision of Clues for Inferring Word-meaning

Meaning and Context
Context is very important. As most words are polysemic, without context there is no way to determine the meaning of a word. Meaning is defined in context.
