But What's a Dictionary For?The storm of abuse in the popular press that greeted the appearance of Webster's Third New International Dictionary is a curious phenomenon. Never has a scholarly work of this stature been attacked with such unbridled fury and contempt. An article in the Atlantic viewed it as a "disappointment," a "shock," a " calamity ," "a scandal and a disaster. " The New York Times, in a special editorial, felt that the work would " accelerate the deterioration " of the language and sternly accused the editors of betraying a public trust. The Journal of the American Bar Association saw the publication as " deplorable ," "a flagrant example of lexicographic irresponsibility," "a serious blow to the cause of good English." Life called it "a non-word deluge " monstrous ", " abominable ," and "a cause for dismay." They doubted that "Lincoln could have modelled his Gettysburg Address" on it – a concept of how things get written that throws very little light on Lincoln but a great deal on Life.What underlies all this sound and fury? Is the claim of the G. R C. Merriam Company, probably the world's greatest dictionary maker, that the preparation of the work cost $3.5 million, that it required the efforts of three hundred scholar s over a period of twenty – seven years, working on the largest collection of citations ever assembled in any language -- is all this a fraud, a hoax ?So monstrous a discrepancy in evaluation requires us to examine basic principles. Just what's a dictionary for? What does it propose to do? What does the common reader go to a dictionary to find? What has the purchaser of a dictionary a right to expect for his money?Before we look at basic principles, it is necessary to interpose two brief statements. The first of these is that a dictionary is concerned with words. Some dictionaries give various kinds of other useful information. Some have tables of weights and measures on the flyleaves . Some list historical events and some, home remedies . And there’s nothing wrong w ith their so doing. But the great increase in our vocabulary in the past three decades compels all dictionaries to make more efficient use of their space. And if something must be eliminated , it is sensible to throw out these extraneous things and stick to words.The second brief statement is that there has been even more progress in the making of dictionaries in the past thirty years than there has been in the making of automobiles The difference, for example, between the much-touted Second International (1934) and the much-clouted Third International (1961) is not like the difference between yearly models but like the difference between the horse and buggy and the automobile. Between the appearance of these two editions a whole new science related to the making of dictionaries, the science of descriptive linguistics, has come into being.Modern linguistics gets its charter from Leonard Bloomfield's Language (1933). Bloomfield's for thirteen years professor of Germanic philology at the University of Chicago and for nine years professor of linguistics at Yale, was one of those inseminating scholars who can’ t be relegated to any department and don't dream of accepting established categories and procedures just because they're established. He was as much an anthropologist as a linguist, and his concepts of language were shaped not by Strunk's Elements of Style but by his knowledge of Cree Indian dialects.The broad general findings of the new science are:1. All languages are systems of human conventions , not systems of natural laws. The first -- and essential – step in the study of any language is observing and setting down precisely what happens when native speakers speak it.2. Each language is unique in its pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary. It cannot be described in terms of logic or of some theoretical, ideal language. It cannot be described in terms of any other language, or evenin terms of its own past.3. All languages are dynamic rather than static, and hence a "rule" in any language can only be a statement of contemporary practice. Change is constant -- and normal4. "Correctness" can rest only upon usage, for the simple reason that there is nothing else for it to rest on. And all usage is relative.From these propositions it follows that a dictionary is good only insofar as it is a comprehensive and accurate description of current usage. And to be comprehensive it must include some indication of social and regional associations.New dictionaries are needed because English changed more in the past two generations than at any other time in its history. It has had to adapt to extraordinary cultural and technological changes, two world wars, unparalleled changes in transportation and communication, and unprecedented movements of populations.More subtly , but pervasively, it has changed under the influence of mass education and the growth of democracy. As written English is used by increasing millions and f-or more reasons than ever before, the language has become more utilitarian and more informal. Every publication in America today includes pages that would appear, to the purist of forty years ago, unbuttoned gibberish . Not that they are; they simply show that you can't hold the language of one generation up as a model for the next.It's not that you mustn't. You can't. For example, in the issue in which Life stated editorially that it would folly the Second International, there were over forty words constructions, and meanings which are in the Third International but not in the Second. The issue of the New York Times which hailed the Second International as the authority to which it would adhere and the Third International as a scandal and a betrayal which it would reject used one hundred and fifty-three separate words, phrases, and constructions which are listed in the Third International but not g the Second and nineteen others which are condemned in the Second. Many of them are used many times, more than three hundred such uses in all. The Washington Post, in an editorial captioned "Keep Your Old Webster's, " says, in the first sentence, "don't throw it away," and in the second, "hang on to it." But the old Webster's labels don't "colloquial" and doesn't include "hang on to," in this sense, at all.In short, all of these publications are written in the language that the Third International describes, even the very editorials which scorn it. And this is no coincidence , because the Third International isn't setting up any new standards at all; it is simply describing what Life, the Washing-ton Post, and the New York Times are doing. Much of the dictionary's material comes from these very publications, the Times, in particular, furnishing more of its illustrative quotations than any other newspaper.And the papers have no choice. No journal or periodical could sell a single issue today if it restricted itself to the American language of twenty-eight years ago. It couldn't discuss halt the things we are inter ester in, and its style would seem stiff and cumbrous . If the editorials were serious, the public -- and the stockholders -- have reason to be grateful that the writers on these publications are more literate than the editors.And so back to our questions: what's a dictionary for, and how, in 1962, can it best do what it ought to do? The demands are simple. The common reader turns to a dictionary for information about the spelling, pronunciation, meaning, and proper use of words. He wants to know what is current and respectable. But he wants – and has a right to – the truth, the full truth. And the full truth about any language, and especially about American English today, is that there are many areas in which certainty is impossible and simplification is misleading.Even in so settled a matter as spelling, a dictionary cannot always be absolute. Theater is correct, but so is theatre. And so are traveled and travelled, plow and plough, catalog and catalogue, and scores of other variants The reader may want a single certainty. He may have taken an unyielding position in an argument, he may have wagered in support of his conviction and may demand that the dictionary "settle" the matter. But neither hisvanity nor his purse is any concern of the dictionary's; it must record the facts. And the fact here is that there are many words in our language which may be spelled, with equal correctness, in either of two ways.So with pronunciation. A citizen listening to his radio might notice that James B. Conant, Bernard Baruch, and Dwight D. Eisenhower pronounce economics as ECKuhnomiks, while A. Whitney Griswold, Adlai Stevenson, and Herbert Hoover pronounce it EEKuhnomiks. He turns to the dictionary to see which of the two pronunciations is "right" and finds that they are both acceptable.Has he been betrayed‘? Has the dictionary abdicated its responsibility? Should it say that one must speak like the president of Harvard or like the president of Yale, like the thirty-first President of the United States or like the thirty-fourth? Surely it's none of its business to make a choice. Not because of the distinction of these particular speakers; lexicography, like God, is no respecter of persons. But because so wide-spread and conspicuous a use of two pronunciations among people of this elevation shows that there are two pronunciations. Their speaking establishes the fact which the dictionary must record.The average purchaser of a dictionary uses it most often, probably, to find out what a word "means." As a reader, he wants to know what an author intended to convey. As a speaker or writer, he wants to know what a word will convey to his auditor s. And this, too, is complex, subtle, and for ever changing.An illustration is furnished by an editorial in the Washington Post (January 17, 1962). After a ringing appeal to those who "love truth and accuracy" and the usual bombinations about "abdication of authority" and " barbarism ," the editorial charges the Third International with " pretentious and obscure verbosity " and specifically instances its definition of "so simple an object as a door.” The definition reads:a movable piece of firm material or a structure supported usu. along one side and swinging on pivots or hinges , sliding along a groove , roiling up and down, revolving as one of four leaves, or folding like an accordion by means of which an opening may be closed or kept open for passage into or out of a building, room, or other covered enclosure or a car, airplane, elevator, or other vehicle. Then follows a series of special meanings, each particularity defined and, where necessary, illustrated by a quotation Since, aside from roaring and admonishing the "gentle men from Springfield" that "accuracy and brevity are virtues,” the Post's editorial tails to explain what is wrong with the definition, we can only infer from "so simple" a thing that the writer takes the plain, downright, man-in-the street attitude that a door is a door and any damn fool knows that.But if so, he has walked into one of lexicography's biggest booby traps: the belief that the obvious is easy to define. Whereas the opposite is true. Anyone can give a fair description of the strange, the new, or the unique. It's the commonplace, the habitual, that challenges definition, for its very commonness compels us to define it in uncommon terms. Dr. Johnson was ridiculed on just this score when his dictionary appeared in 1755. For two hundred years his definition of a network as "any thing reticulated or decussated , at equal distances, with interstices between the inter sections” has been good for a laugh. But in the merriment one thing is always overlooked: no one has yet come up with a better definition! Subsequent dictionaries defined it as a mesh and then defined a mesh as a network. That's simple, all right.Anyone who attempts sincerely to state what the were door means in the United States of America today can't take refuge in a log cabin. There has been an enormous proliferation of closing and demarking devices and structure in the past twenty years, and anyone who tries to thread his way through the many meanings now included under door may have to sacrifice brevity to accuracy and even have to employ words that a limited vocabulary may find obscure.Is the entrance to a tent a door, for instance? And What of the thing that seals the exit of an air plane‘? Is this a door? Or what of those sheets and jets of air that are now being used, in place of old-fashioned oak and hinges, to screen entrances and exists? Are they doors? And what of that accordion-like things that set off various sections of many modern apartments? The fine print in the lease takes it for granted that they are doors and that spaces demarked by them are rooms -- and the rent is computed on the number of rooms.Was I gypped by the landlord when he called the folding contraption that shuts off my kitchen a door? I go to the Second Inter national, which the editor of the Post urges me to use in preference to the Third International. Here I find that a door isThe movable frame or barrier of boards, or other material, usually turning on hinges or pivots or sliding, by which an entranceway into a house or apartment is closed and opened; also, a similar part of a piece of furniture, as in a cabinet or book case. This is only forty-six words, but though it includes the cellar it excludes the barn door and the accordion-like thingSo I go on to the Third International. I see at once that. the new definition is longer. But I'm looking for accuracy,and if I must sacrifice brevity. to get it, then I must. And sure enough, in the definition which raised the Post's blood pressure, I find the words "folding like an accordion.” The thing is a door, and my landlord is using the word in one of its currently accepted meanings.The new dictionary may have many faults. Nothing that tries to meet an ever-changing situation over a terrain as vast as contemporary English can hope to be free of them and much in it is open to honest and informed, disagreement. There can be linguistic objection to the eradication of proper names. The removal of guides to pronunciation from the toot of every page may not have been worth the valuable space it saved. The new method of defining words of many meanings has disadvantages as well as advantages. And of the half million or more definitions, hundreds, possibly thousands, may seem inadequate or imprecise. To some (of whom I am one) the omission of the label "colloquial" will seem meritorious ; to others it will seem a loss.But one thing is certain: anyone who solemnly announces in the year 1962 that he will be guided in matter s of English usage by a dictionary published in 1934 is talking ignorant and pretentious nonsense.。

Fred was not aware that his short hair and new clothes had given him aw ay.11. In recent years some women, though not many, have distinguished themsel ves in the political arena or the financial world hitherto monopolized by men.12. I hope you will take into account the state of mind he was in under those circumstances and give him another chance.13. Many students are thrown into a state of confusion and anxiety when they find the values gained in college are out of place in society at large.14. The mother said, “ My son, listen to me. Quit gambling. If you do not, i t will involve you deeply in debt and you will be ruined.”15. I will introduce you to her but I warn you beforehand that she moves in very exclusive social circles.16. The book deals with the life and experiences of a self-made man.17. I was told he had been taken in. To put it bluntly, that man is a fool.18. College students are much more concerned with job opportunities after the ir graduation nowadays than a few years ago.Lesson 71 The preface to Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English was written by Randolph Quick.2 In his a rticle he paid tribute to China’s great achievements.3 Justice prevailed; the guilty man who had killed her father was punished.4 He is a famous director, but he is always simply dressed, amiable and easy of approach, never using pretentious language in his talk.5 The food is only so-so in that restaurant; the one redeeming feature is its fi ne service.6 Jack said he felt drawn to this singer.7 Though a bedridden invalid, she remains optimistic about life.8 We should go ahead defying all difficulties.9 When he heard the news, smile faded from his face.10 Mary intended to expand her article into a book.11 The plane fully loaded with cargo and passengers took off on time.12 They are facing unprecedented difficulties, and it is our indispensable duty to help them.13 He and Jack studied in the same class for three years, and he took Jack in to his confidence, telling him everything concerning his affairs.Lesson 8Translation1 The traditional feast has gone out of fashion, giving way to seafood, and sp ecial night snacks are in fashion now.2 Although steamed mandarin fish was on the menu, I was told it was it was not available that day.3 He had to decline the offer, for the terms seemed unacceptable to his corpor ation.4 The local people spared no expense to renovate Yi Garden and Da Long Te mple, which are of historical and cultural value and are great attractions to tou rists.5 I remember the party was held in that hotel. The ballroom then was certainl y not luxurious by today’s stan dards.6 Like the other guests, she dipped the freshly boiled shrimp into the sauce b efore she put it in her mouth; she found it very, very tasty.7 Many Americans like Chinese cuisine, and Sichuan-style cooking in particula r.8 In recent years in Shanghai and other large cities, the typical Chinese breakf ast of porridge or gruel has been supplanted by bread and milk which is more nutritious and time-saving.9 In summer when she gets home from office, leather shoes are cast in favor of slippers.10 Vacuum packing is adopted so as to keep the food free of bacteria.11 She wears shorts, rather than skirts, for shorts are in fashion now, but year s ago well-bred young ladies were mostly seen in dresses.12 Generally speaking, the defeated general should be removed from his post, but I hope Mr. Lee will be an exception to the practice. Give him another ch ance. That is my idea.13 Now writers may choose from a wide variety of topics, many of which we re taboos in those years.14 Restraint in her manner became more marked as the conversation went on.15 Before work the girls rolled up their sleeves to keep them free of soot and dirt.16 The old lady watched with amazement as the youngster wolfed down plates of food in no time.17 In my grandfather day, people in his village never went to the butcher for meat.18 They killed their own pigs for the Spring Festival. As a rule the hog was bound tight and placed on a thick board and the slaughtering was done in vie w of village people, mainly young men and boys. My father thought the scene distasteful and was never a spectator to it.Lesson 9He was born in a peasant family and grew up in an environment of poverty. Do not worry. The insurance company will remunerate you for your loss. When people asked me why I would go to study abroad, I was hard put (to i t) to answer the question.Three people were cruelly killed last night, and the police are trying to ascerta in the facts about the murder.Ten years ago Jack made a meager 500 dollars a month.Tom thought it profitable to be in the second-hand car business. Sometimes he bought an old car for 200 dollars, but with a turn of the wrist he could sell it for 400 dollars.The police officer Hunter was on leave, but as soon as he was given the urge nt task, he pitched in without the least hesitation.After the death of Mr Johnson, his wife became the company’s president both in name and in reality.His son has a poor physique and is prone to illness.The ruffian dropped his gun and ran down the street, with two policemen in h ot pursuit.He gave in to our persuasion and acquiesced in Bill’s suggestion.Mr Brown decided to endow the university where he had studied for four year s.Insufficiently trained workers are prone to turn out rejects (defective goods, su bstantial product).She was hard put to find a solution to the domestic financial crisis.Lesson 10In fairness to him, he is a good actor, though not without his limitations.She never imagined that her husband’s joke could actually have put her guests on edge.3.The great success of the battle owed much to the timing of the attack that t ook the enemy by surprise.4.I find him very agreeable, and I am sure you will enjoy his company imme nsely as he is a jovial fellow, always in the best of humor.5. It was the first time he played billiards. He listened carefully to the instruct ions given him by John and took them seriously.6. She knew the old man was getting sore. As she looked out of the corner of her eye, she found him trying hard to hide his feelings with a forced smile.7.I had no idea that he was the celebrated actor. When he talked he had none of that air of professionalism.8. The last time I saw Vance was in his home town in the seventies. I found him a disillusioned man. His dream, his hope, the things that he stood for had all been shattered.9. Though a good hand at bridge, this time he decided to watch rather than pl ay.10 .Having heard what she had to say, he grew meditative and the angry exp ression on his faced softened.11.I detected a trace of mockery in his eyes as he heaped his praises on the writer.12. Forced into a corner , he had to fight back and this he did with all his st rength and he survived.13. We had three games of chess yesterday, and I was beaten in all three. The news is no surprise , since he is a professional and you are an amateur.14.The tone in his voice told me that what he had just said could not be the whole story. There was something else though I knew not what。

• I like to think of her as a child. His grandmother was born (around 1880) at a time when the Kiowa were still living in their golden time or to be more exact, the last moment of their golden time. Starting from Paragraph 3, the author links his grandmother with the history of the Kiowa.
Structure of the Text
Part I: Paras 1-3: introduction to the whole text
Part II: Paras 4-10: the author explores the three stages of the Kiowa culture emergence, evolution and decline.
• Loneliness is an aspect of the land
Loneliness is a major quality of this landscape. The author emphasizes loneliness, perhaps because this quality enables one to concentrate one’s mind on the earth.
• One hill or one tree or one man:
The use of “one” instead of an indefinite article “a” emphasizes the fact that there is only one hill, only one tree or only one man.

《高级英语》(第三版)重排版(第一册)Lesson 11 The Way to Rainy MountainKey to ExercisesIII. Paraphrase1. The landscape makes your imagination vivid and lifelike, and you believe that the creation of the whole universe was begun right here.2. The Kiowa often fought just because they were good warriors, because they fought out of habit, character, nature, not because they needed extra lands or material gains for the sake of surviving and thriving. And they could not understand why the U.S. Cavalry never gave up pushing forward even when they had won a battle.3. Luckily, my grandmother did not suffer the humiliation of being put into a closure for holding animals, for she was born eight or ten years after the event.4. They moved toward the east, where the sun rises, and also toward the beginning ofa new culture, which led to the greatest moment of their history.5. Now they got horses. Riding on horseback, instead of walking on foot, gave them this new freedom of movement, thus completely liberating their ancient nomadic spirit.6. The earth unfolds and the limit of the land is far in the distance, where there are clusters of trees and animals eating grass. This landscape makes it possible to see far into the distance and in all directions.7. I was not sure that I had any right to overhear her praying, which did not follow any customary way of praying, and which I guess she did not want anyone else to hear.8. In this way she was completely moved to another state in the dancing light among the shadows of her room, and she seemed to be timeless (what she represented would last for ever).9. On these special occasions, women might make loud and elaborate jokes and talk among themselves. Their gossip revealed their position as servants of men and was also a reward for their servitude.IV. Practice with Words and ExpressionsA.1. knoll: a hillock2. anvil: an iron or steel block on which metal objects are hammered into shape3. writhe: to twist and turn the body as in agony4. infirm: weak or ill especially because one is old5. headwaters: the beginning of a large stream or river6. fork: the point where a river is divided into two or more branches, or where branches join to form a river7. pilgrimage: a journey made by a pilgrim, especially to a shrine or holy place; any long journey to a place of historical interest8. engender: to bring into being, bring about, produce9. consummate: to make complete, perfect10. beadwork: decorative work in beads11. warlord: a military leader, especially an unofficial one fighting against a government or king12. hie: to hurry or hastenB.In language, alliteration refers to repetition of a particular sound in the first syllables of a series of words and/or phrases. Alliteration has historically developed largely through poetry and is still used often in poetry. In the essay “The Way to Rainy Mountain,” the author uses alliteration a lot. Here are some examples from the essay: brittle and brown (Para. 1), willow and witch hazel (Para. 1), great green-and-yellow grasshoppers (Para. 1), the eagle and the elk (Para. 6), the badger and the bear (Para. 6), bent and blind (Para. 6), sad in the sound (Para. 11), lean and leather (Para. 13), jest and gesture (Para. 13), fright and false alarm (Para. 13). The frequent use of alliteration shows the author’s special interest in the sound of language, the rhythm of language, and how words sound to him and the reader. Alliteration helps to achieve a poetic effect of description.C.1. The weather here is extremely harsh.2. In summer the prairie is very hot.3. They were no longer dominated by the simple necessity of survival; they werea proud and dangerous group of fighters and thieves, hunters and pious believers in the sun as their god.4. In a sense, their migration confirmed the ancient myth that they entered the world from a hollow log, for they did emerge from the sunless mountain forests.5. Although my grandmother never left Rainy Mountain in her long life, the immense landscape of the Great Plains existed clearly in her memory as if she had lived there herself.6. As hunters, it was very important for the Kiowa to be able to see a long way. So if a Kiowa could see very far, he would be respected by his fellow Kiowa.7. They would not yet change the direction southward to the land lying below which was like a large kettle. First, they must give their bodies some time to get used to the plains. Second, they didn’t want to lose sight of the mountains so soon.V. TranslationA.1. Changes in the political situation brought the two small parties into alliance.2. His failure was due to his disposition rather than his ability.3. I have something important to discuss with you. Could you spare half an hour?4. Many people prefer to chat online as this can spare them any awkwardness that may occur when talking face to face.5. No longer are the rivers clean and clear, and the water quality has reduced to worse than Level V, unfit even for agricultural irrigation.6. Short as it is, the article is very rich in symbolic implications which deserve a thorough analysis.7. The snow mountain reached into the sky, its beauty beyond all comparison.8. He left home as a child and has seen little of his father since then. So he never feels at home in his father’s presence.9. As this meeting is very important, nobody should be absent without cause.10. In her memory, her mother was at once severe and kind.B.1. 虽然那里很美丽,但人们可能有受束缚、被禁锢的感觉。
