A This dictionary tells you about English words and how to use them in reading, writing

and speaking English. It not only gives the meaning of words, it can also help you with spelling, word building, grammar and pronunciation.

To use your dictionary correctly, you will find two spellings for this word. “Colour” is used in British English, while “color” is used in American English. When there are differences between British and American spelling, the dictionary shows it with the word “BrE” for British English and “AmE” for American English.

The dictionary also helps you pronounce words correctly. If you turn to the inside back

face, you will see all the phonetic letters (音标) with some words to show you how they are pronounced. Just look at the inside back cover when you're not sure how to say a word. The most important reason for using a dictionary is to find out the meaning of a word—its definition. In this dictionary, the definitions have been written using only 2,000 words. This means that the definitions of even the most difficult words are simple and easy to understand.

21.The AmE spelling of the Chinese word “颜色” in this dictionary is ________.

A．color B．colour C．colar D．corler

22.The phonetic letters help you ________ each word correctly. 中小学最新教育资料

Richard Rudd was so forgetful that he sometimes forgot what he was talking about in the middle of a sentence. His wife had to always remind him about his appointments, his classes, even his meals! Since Rudd was a professor at a well-known university, his forgetfulness often caused him a lot of trouble. It wasn’t that he was unintelligent. He was just very, very absent-minded.

To make the trip more interesting for his young children, he kept the name of the town a secret.
