38 after midnight, Jack quietly touched me. “Mommy, I want to stay with you. I promise I won’t take much room.” I shifted 39 to make room. My son soon fell asleep.

An hour later, Tara cried and I carefully went downstairs. “Mommy, my 40 is all stuffed up（堵住）. I can’t really breathe very well. Will you please 41 with me a little while?” Tara doesn’t often get up at night, 42 I decided to be there for her. She soon fell asleep. I returned to my own bed. I was determined to sleep. But to my 43 , I found Jack sleeping on my side of the bed. He looked so 44 that I couldn’t remove him. Quietly and carefully, I lay down between 45 and Jack.

When I first entered university, my aunt, who is an English professor, gave me a new English dictionary. I was 36 to see that it was an English-English dictionary, also known as a monolingual dictionary. 37 it was a dictionary intended for non-native learners, none of my classmates had one. 38 , to be honest, I found it extremely 39 to use at first. I would look up words in the dictionary and 40

not fully understand the meanings. I was used to the 41 bilingual dictionaries, in which the words are 42 both in English and Chinese. I really wondered why my aunt 43 to make things so difficult for me. Now, after studying English at university for three years, I 44 that monolingual dictionaries are 45 in learning a foreign language.

As I found out, there is, 46 , often no perfect equivalence(对应)between two 47 in two languages. My aunt even goes so far as to 48 that a Chinese “equivalent” can never give you the 49 meaning of a word in English! 50 , she insisted that I read the definition(定义)of a word in a monolingual dictionary 51 I wanted to get a better understanding of its meaning. 52 , I have come to see what she meant.

Using a monolingual dictionary for learners has helped me in another important way. This dictionary uses only a(n) 53 number of words, around 2,000, in its definitions. When I read these definitions, I am 54 exposed to(接触)the basic words and learn how they are used to explain objects and ideas. 55 this, I can express myself more easily in English.

1.A. worried B. sad C. surprised D. nervous

2. A. Because B. Although C. Unless D. If

3.A. But B. So C. Or D. Then

4. A. difficult B. interesting C. helpful D. practical

5.A. thus B. even C. still D. again

6.A. new B. familiar C. earlier D. ordinary

7.A. explained B. expressed C. described D. created

8.A. offered B. agreed C. decided D. happened

9. A. imagine B. recommend C. predict D. understand

10. A. natural B. better C. easier D. convenient

11. A. at least B. in fact C. at times D. in case

12. A. words B. names C. ideas D. characters

13.A. hope B. declare C. doubt D. tell

14.A. exact B. basic C. translated D. expected
