这项研究的目的是建立一种方法来比较日语初中和高中课文、日语大学资格考试、英语水平测试和EGP、ESP和Semi-ESP大学教科书的词汇水平,以确定什么是词汇水平,以及学生需要什么额外的词汇才能理解95%的材料。这是通过从英国国家语料库创建一个经过词条分类和排名的高频词表(BNC HFWL)来实现的。这项研究发现,尽管大多数大学生应该准备参加托业考试,高中生应该能够通过大阪中心Nyushi和Eiken二年级的考试,但大多数高考的词汇量远远高于高中毕业生的水平。专门的词汇表有助于弥合JSH和ESP之间以及JSH和托福之间的词汇差距。
The purpose of this study was to create a means for comparing the vocabulary levels of Japanese junior and senior high school (JSH) texts, Japanese college qualification tests, English proficiency tests, and EGP, ESP and semi-ESP college textbooks in order to determine what the vocabulary levels are, and what additional vocabulary is required for students to understand 95% of these materials. This was done by creating a lemmatised and ranked high frequency word list (BNC HFWL) from the British National Corpus. This study found that although most college students should be prepared to take the TOEIC, and high school students should be able to pass both the Daigaku Center Nyushi and Eiken 2nd grade tests, most college entrance exams contain vocabulary that is significantly above the level of high school graduates. Specialized vocabulary lists can be helpful in bridging vocabulary gaps between JSH and ESP, and between JSH and the TOEFL.
