When I first entered university, my aunt, who is an English professor, gave me a new English dictionary. I was   1  to see that it was an English English dictionary, also known as a monolingual(单语的) dictionary.   2  it was a dictionary intended for non-native learners, none of my classmates had one and, to be honest, I found it extremely  3  to use at first. I would look up words in the dictionary and still not fully understand the meaning. I was used to the   4  bilingual(双语的)dictionaries, in which the words are    5  both in English and Chinese. I really wondered why my aunt   6  to make things so difficult for me. Now, after studying English at university for three years, I   7 that monolingual dictionaries are  8 in learning a foreign language.
As I found out, there is in fact often no perfect equivalence(对应) between two  9  in two language. My aunt even goes so far as to  10 that a Chinese “equivalent” can never give you the   11 meaning of a word in English! Therefore, she insisted that I read the definition(定义) of a word in a monolingual dictionary when I wanted to get a better understanding of its meaning. 12  , 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)   13  number of words, around 2, 000, in its definitions. When I read these definitions, I am  14 exposed to the basic words and learn how they are used to explain objects and ideas.  15 this, I can express myself more easily in English.

I was tired and hungry after a long day of work. When I walked into the living-room, my 12-year-old son looked up at me and said, “I   41  you.” I did not    42  what to say, and I just stood there, looking  43  at him. My first    44   was that he    45  need help with his homework. Then I asked, “What was that all     46  ?”
“Nothing,” he said, “My teacher said we should tell our parents we love them and   47  what they say.”
The next day I called his teacher to    48   more about what my son said and how the other parents had reacted(反应) . “Most of the fathers had the    49   response as you did,” the teacher said, ”When I first         50    that we try this, I asked the children   51   they thought their parents    52   say. Some of them thought their parents would have heart trouble.”
Then the teacher   53  , “ I want my students to know that feeling love is an important part of    54  . I’m trying to tell them it’s too bad that we don’t express our feelings. A boy   55   tell his father or mother he loves him.” The teacher understands that sometimes it is   56   for some of us to say something that is good for us to say.
That evening when my son   57   to me, I took him in my arms and held on for an    58    moment, saying, “Hey, I love you,    59  .” I don’t know if saying that made    60   of us healthier, but it did feel pretty good.
