摘要

Vocabulary is the foundation of English learning, and vocabulary teaching is an important part of English teaching in senior high school. However, the traditional vocabulary teaching method is too single and inefficient, which increases students' vocabulary memory burden. And under their Chinglish thinking, students often use vocabularies incorrectly. Through analyzing the problems of vocabulary learning and the disadvantages of traditional vocabulary teaching in senior high school, this paper focuses on the combination of semantic change, word formation and English idiom with high school English vocabulary teaching. Through this topic research, the content involved in lexicology can be tapped to combine with high school vocabulary teaching. As thus, in the process of learning vocabulary students can not only understand the evolution and formation of vocabulary, but they can understand the cultural meaning behind it.
