因朱晓慧教授编著、王逢鑫教授审定，北京大学出版社出版的《英语专业八级阅读与词汇》一书已绝版近5年，而索取此书附录《英语专业八级词汇专项自测题十套（1000题）》的读者甚多，本人制作了此书附录自测题的电子版，供广大读者使用。

请读者尊重国家版权法规定，下载后勿用于商业目的，仅供学习之用，且不使用本电子版文件制作替他一切形式的出版物，本人概不负责所产生的后果！

《英语专业八级词汇专项自测题十套（1000题）》于2001年出版后在英语学习者中产生了重要影响，对于参加托福、雅思、GRE以及英语专业八级、英语语言文学专业、外国语言学与应用语言学专业硕士研究生入学考试的读者有极大帮助。2005年某著名出版社出版的某著名品牌的词汇记忆书大量剽窃此自测题中朱教授的原创题，由此可见自测题受欢迎程度。

八级词汇专项自测题十套（1000题）通过上述“代前言”和前四章的学习，我们已初步弄清了如下五个问题：

1．“自然英语”是一种客观存在，是本书作者多年研习英语词汇和阅读的一种发现和归

纳，它的核心就是对英语学习的观念、材料和方法进行客观描述，而不去主观规

Edited by Adam Brown Shenstone 据和来源做了若干讨论和说明，权当回答上述问题，让大家都成为明白人。

3．第二章分析、列举、测试了英语专业八级词汇与几种中美主要考试级别的词汇，不仅使读者高屋建瓴地俯瞰各级词汇的源头、流向、分枝的景况，也让读者“试上一把”，从而知道各级词汇的难度。不仅如此，本章提供的相关论据和材料，对读者的整体复习，也能助上一臂之力。

4．本书在第三章中，首先把英语专业四级词汇和八级词汇在权威样题（主要是阅读题）中的情况做些说明，接着附录英语专业四级和八级全真阅读原题，以便读者真切感受各级词汇在其中发挥的作用。读完本章，读者一定会对八级词汇在八级试卷中的体现有了比较具体的印象，并根据各级词汇在试卷各题型中所占的准确的词汇比例，检查相关词汇上的问题，并明确改进的具体内容。

5．如果说“代前言”是立论，前三章是铺垫，第四章才是本书要达到的根本目的：通过鲜活的、完美的语言上下文，即通过那些构思了整体布局、考究了结构修辞、斟酌了词语达意的各类文体，如诗歌、散文、小说、科普文和时文文选等，真真正正地体现了“自然英语”所要求的各项要素。这不仅是本书的高潮，也是编著者希望读者从根本上习惯新的，“自然英语法”学词汇的期望之所在。当然，本章中用于自学和教学的时间，也将会是最长的。

最后，为了让本书所收英语专业八级词汇的覆盖面尽可能地大，我们从前几章例文里没有覆盖到的八级词中，选出一部分词，编题专项训练。在下面的十套1000题中，每套题的前30题和后30题为本书作者自编，其余40题为往年“托福”词汇题的精选。这些题的题干句，大都富有现代生活气息，盈溢文理百科的理念，综合知识面广、句式变化大；虽不能像上述引用的各类文章，将词义包容、涵盖、演绎得淋漓尽致，但仍可作为认知某个生词的第一步。所以说，题干句本身，不仅具有最小的、但却完整的“语言上下文”(linguistic context)，还起到了“工具（相当于某词义项的例句）的功能，读者亦可仔细体味。
