When I first entered university，my aunt，who is an English professor，gave me a new English dictionary

When I first entered university，my aunt，who is an English professor，gave me a new English dictionary. I was    1    to see that it was an EnglishEnglish dictionary，also known as a monolingual（单语的） dictionary.    2  it was a dictionary intended for nonnative learners，none of my classmates had one and，to be honest，I found it extremely    3   to use at first. I would look up words in the dictionary and still not fully understand the meaning. I was used to the    4  bilingual（双语的）dictionaries，in which the words are    5   both in English and Chinese. I really wondered why my aunt    6   to make things so difficult for me. Now，after studying English at university for three years，I   7   that monolingual dictionaries are   8    in learning a foreign language.
As I found out，there is in fact often no perfect equivalence（对应） between two    9   in two languages. My aunt even goes so far as to    10  that a Chinese"equivalent"can never give you the   11   meaning of a word in English!Therefore，she insisted that I read the definition（定义） of a word in a monolingual dictionary when I wanted to get a better understanding of its meaning.    12   ，I have come to see what she meant.
Using a monolingual dictionary for learners has helped me in another important way. This dictionary uses a（n）    13   number of words，around 2，000，in its definitions. When I read these definitions，I am    14   exposed to the basic words and learn how they are used to explain objects and ideas.   15   this，I can express myself more easily in English.
