a well-organized system of lexical representation,where each word's spelling; sound and meaning are stored as unique entities. That is to say,language users can differentiate the orthography, phonology and semantics. Certainprocedures can access this system.Carroll gave a similar definition in 2000: the mental lexicon is the organization of wordknowledge in one's permanent memory.In the same year, Richards also considered mental lexicon as a mental system, whichcontains all the information a language user knows about words, including the spelling andpronunciation，the meaning of the word, the related information, and its relationship to otherwords.

Conclusion

Undoubtedly, this paper is far from perfect because of the restrictions of time, energy andsubjects. The limitations are pointed out as follows:
First, for practical reasons, the number of the Chinese learners of English whoparticipated in the experiment is limited. Therefore, the results discovered in the present studycan only present part of the whole developmental process. And because of the difficulty, theresearcher failed to obtain any native speakers' Reference. So it can not have a definite andpractical answer to the question: Are the semantic associations between words in the L2mental lexicon different systematically from those of native speakers? So the native speakers，the English learners of Chinese and the Chinese learners of English could all be invited toparticipate in the word association test in the later studies.
Second, different prompt words are sure to bring out different results. All the promptwords just have one meaning in this study. In other words, the multi-meaning English wordscan not be easily found in the list of the prompt words. Hence, f本论文由英语论文网提供整理，提供论文代写，英语论文代写，代写论文，代写英语论文，代写留学生论文，代写英文论文，留学生论文代写相关核心关键词搜索。
