aunt, who is an english professor, gave me a new english dictionary. i was _11_to see that it was an english english dictionary, also known as a monolingual dictionary. _12_it was a dictionary intended for non-native learners, none of my classmates had one _13_, to be honest, i found it extremely _14_ to use at first. i would look up words in the dictionary and _15_ not fully understand the meaning. i was used to the _16_ bilingual dictionaries, in which the words are _17_ both in english and chinese. i really wondered why my aunt _18_ to make things so difficult for me. now, after studying english at university for three years, i _19_ that monolingual dictionaries are _20_ in learning a foreign language.as i found out, there is _21_ often no perfect equivalence(对应)between two _22_ in two languages. my aunt even goes so far as to _23_ that a chinese “equivalent” can never give you the _24_ meaning of a word in english! _25_ , she insisted that i read the definition(定义) of a word in a monolingual dictionary _26_ i wanted to get a better understanding of its meaning. _27_, i have come to see what she meant.using a monolingual dictionary for learners has helped me in another important way. this dictionary uses a(n) 28 number of words, around 2, 000, in its definitions. when i read these definitions, i am 29 exposed to（接触）the basic words and learn how they are used to explain objects and ideas. 30 this, i can express myself more easily in english.11.aworried bsad csurprised dnervous12.abecause balthough cunless dif13.abut bso cor dand14.adifficult binteresting
