Even if the students temporarily remember the meaning of the vocabulary learning, in the specific application the students will be in trouble. Therefore, in English vocabulary teaching, if teachers can show the relationship of some words of the original meaning and metaphorical extensions, and let the students fully aware of the important role of metaphor in cognitive thinking, it will produce very positive significance in English vocabulary teaching. This will make the students better recognize polysemy, help them comb the polysemy among different meanings of contact, thus benefiting the students from forming in the minds of the lexical semantic network, convenient memory at the same time, to a flexible use of them.源]自=优尔-^论-文"网·www.youerw.com/
