Reading and vocabulary are both important in English teaching, and they support each other, so in reading teaching, teachers must focus on vocabulary teaching and pay attention to using useful vocabulary and reading strategies to help students learn vocabulary more efficiently in English reading。

2。 Literature Review

Nowadays, readers begin to notice that the multiple meanings of words make a big difference in their comprehension。 Some scholars also have found that the demands of vocabulary becoming a much more important feature of reading at the advanced levels of language proficiency。 At this level, specialized vocabulary plays an important part of reading。

In the field of vocabulary teaching, Shang Liquan, a Chinese scholar, advised that the focus on word families helps readers to see how they can increase their vocabulary in a very simple but powerful way, and also encouraged the effective use of the dictionary。 Liu Siping, a Chinese scholar as well, launched on his empirical study on reading teaching activities for elementary-level language learners。 He found that the worst the students’ reading ability was,the fewer words they learned incidentally during reading。 So, it is obvious that one’s vocabulary has great connection with reading ability。 Based on Nunan D and Anderson N。J’s finding, readers at the beginning level consider their lack of vocabulary to be their greatest challenge, which suggests that we should pay more attention to vocabulary teaching, especially in reading since much new words may lead to frustration in reading。

3。 A General Study of English Lexis and the Significance of Reading Teaching 

Lexicology is a branch of linguistics, which deals with the vocabulary in a language with regard to the properties of its various aspects: morphological, grammatical, semantic, pragmatic, cultural, cognitive, etymological, historical, etc。 By vocabulary, we refer to the stock of words in the language, which has great importance in English learning。 Vocabulary is the basis of reading, and reading teaching is an important part of English teaching。 It not only imparts language knowledge to students and develops students’ language competence, but also broaden students’ vision and cultivate their ability of reading。 Reading comprehension is an integrated skill in English learning; students should instantly increase their vocabulary and language input by reading a lot。 To improve students’ reading ability is a main task in English teaching。文献综述

3。1 The Importance of English Vocabulary

Vocabulary is the material of language construction and the basis of understanding and expressing in English。 The number of students’ vocabulary has a direct link with their abilities of listening, speaking, reading and writing。 Most language learners begin learning another language by starting with vocabulary and the learning of vocabulary seems to accompany a learner throughout the learning process even after all the basic grammatical rules have been learned。 As David Wilkins once said“without out grammar very little can be conveyed, without vocabulary nothing can be conveyed”, which reveals the great importance of English vocabulary。 How to develop vocabulary effectively and efficiently has become, therefore, a very important task for both teachers and learners。

The vocabulary of a language can vary with time。 New words are continuously introduced into a language mainly through three sources: the first one is the development of modern science and technology; the second one is social, economic and political changes and the third one is the influence of other cultures and languages。 The present-day English vocabulary is over two million words, with an average increase of at least 850 words per year, which means we must constantly learn words in order to update with times。来,自,优.尔:论;文*网www.youerw.com +QQ752018766- 英语阅读中的词汇教学方法(2):http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_87126.html
