英语词汇能力自测（看看你的词汇量在哪个程度）
英语词汇能力自测说明
(1) 本附录是参照多种散见于英美教科书、词典、试卷等的词汇分级测试表及若干英语作家的词语索引汇编（即concordance），经在复旦大学外文系英语专业部分学生以及《英汉大词典》编辑部部分编写人员中试用之后编成的，旨在为有志于自学英语的读者自测英语词汇量（主要是识得但并下一定能运用自如的被动词汇量）提供一个大致可靠的统计参数。
(2) 本附录含10种各有60词的测试表。自测时，可将在10表中识得的词（指识得其主要的或最常用的词义）的数目乘以600，复将所得之积按10 表平均计算，其最后所得之数大致就是自测者的英语词汇量数。
(3) 自测结果如不足6000词（即从每种测试表平均只识得10词），应被认为仅有英语国家一般学童之词汇能力，用英语进行读写交际会迟到严重困物；若自测识得12000至18000词（即从每种测试表平均识得20至30词），可被视作具有英语国家内受过寻常教育的一般成年人之普通词汇程度以及基本的读写交际能力；若自测识得24000至30000词（即从每种测试表平均识得40至50词）；可被视作已具有英语国家内受过良好教育且阅读面很广的职业人士的词汇能力，读写交际当游刃有余。
