Abstract

English vocabulary learning plays a significant role in English learning. Semantic field theory ,as one of the important theories in linguistic ,emphasizes the relationship among words in meaning and this relationship enables different vocabularies to be connected in the semantic fields which can be classified into different types such as hyponymy ,synonymy and meronomy. In view of the above situation, this thesis suggests semantic field theory should be applied to English vocabulary teaching in junior middle school.And the following three questions are mainly discussed:(1) How do teachers build a model of English vocabulary teaching in junior middle school based on semantic field theory? (2)How does semantic field theory affect the efficiency of students’ leaning when the semantic field theory is applied to English vocabulary teaching in junior middle school? and(3) How do students learn English vocabulary themselves by building the semantic field?
