Abstract This research is corpus-based research. It uses the BNC as a referenced corpus to study the usage of amplifiers in the texts of the TWENTY-FIRST CENTUYR COLLEGE ENGLISH (TCCE). The study question is whether amplifiers in the texts of the TCCE are overused or underused. The research comes to the conclusions that: 1) as a whole, there is no significant difference between the frequencies of the target amplifiers in TCCE texts and BNC; 2) part of the amplifiers are overused like “badly” while some of the amplifiers are underused like “quite” in TCCE. According to the conclusions, some teaching advice is proposed including that teacher should pay more attention to the teaching method of certain amplifiers like “badly” and students are encouraged to do more self-learning on amplifiers.54673

1. Introduction 

Intensifier plays an important role in language communication. One could strengthen the semantics of what they say and highlight the key information if he or she uses an intensifier. From the semantic perspective, an intensifier is used to modify adjectives, adverbs, verbs and prepositional phrases, representing the degree of the quality or state of something; from the perspective of functional grammar, an intensifier can realize the interpersonal function, expressing the speaker's tone and manner. What’s more, amplifier is an important part of intensifier.  Amplifiers can strengthen the function of the semantics and intensify the degree gradually, such as completely,absolutely,very much .etc. The use of amplifiers is restricted by many things such as words, semantics, syntax and text. Therefore, the use of amplifiers is full of complexity and is worth studying. Nowadays, college English teaching materials play a very important role in the college in China. For teachers, preparing lessons, interpretation of the teaching contents, as well as the evaluation at the learning effectiveness of a student are dependent on the teaching materials. For students, drawing and construction of knowledge points, vocabulary acquisition and cross-cultural communication ability, after-school reviewing and preparing for CET exams, also cannot leave the college English teaching materials. As the most widely used college English teaching material, the study on the TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY COLLEGE ENGLISH (TCCE) shows its importance. 《21世纪大学英语》文本中的强势词研究:http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_58899.html
