the Academic Word List: Sublists 1-3 4 Buyer: Aida Mammadova (mammadova.aaaa94@gmail.com) Transaction ID: st-ch_1H3NhzFBjZvp9CXQR78mVLDb Sheldon Smith Introduction About the Academic Word List The Academic Word List (AWL) was developed by Averil Coxhead at Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand. The list contains 570 word families which frequently appear in academic texts, but which are not contained in the General Service List (GSL). The 570 word families of the AWL are divided into 10 lists (called sublists) according to how frequent they are. Sublist 1 has the most frequent word families, sublist 2 the next most frequent word families, up to sublist 10, which has the least frequent. Each sublist contains 60 word families, except for sublist 10, which only has 30. About this book The book has the following features. 1) All 60 words in AWL sublist 1 are given. 2) Pronunciation of each headword is shown. 3) Definitions are given for each headword. These are the most common definitions of these words, rather than all possible meanings (many meanings of the words do not relate to how they are used in academic contexts). 4) The word family of each word is also given (adj, noun, verb, etc.). These are categorised by type, so you can easily tell which word has which word form. 5) Common academic collocations using each AWL word are also given. These are taken from the ACL (Academic Collocations List) developed by Pearson Education. 6) There are exercises at the end of each sublist to help you practise each of the words. The exercises cover all 60 words in each sublist (often multiple times). More exercises can be found by accessing the online resources. See the end of the book for access details. 7) There is a study guide (below) to help you understand how to use the AWL, and this book, to improve your academic vocabulary. 8) For the sake of clarity, each word is shown either on a single page, or with two words occupying one page. 5 Buyer: Aida Mammadova (mammadova.aaaa94@gmail.com) Transaction ID: st-ch_1H3NhzFBjZvp9CXQR78mVLDb Unlock the Academic Word List: Sublists 1-3 Guidance for study When studying vocabulary, the first step is to understand the meaning. Looking up words in a dictionary to find the meaning can be difficult, and so to help you with this, all headwords in the book have definitions, which are limited to how the words are used in academic contexts. Many students simply never get past the first step, which means they may be able to understand the word when reading, but will not be able to use it productively in writing or speaking. A second step is to understand different word forms of the word, i.e. the word family. This will enable you to use the word more flexibly in your speaking or writing, and is an especially useful skill if you want to paraphrase material. For example, the word benefit, in AWL sublist 1, can be a verb or noun. The adjective form is beneficial. A third step is to focus on usage. Here you would need a good dictionary to help, or you can study the word in context. This book helps by giving example sentences, though these are only of the headword, and further study may be needed. Examples of usage for the word benefit are shown below. benefit (n) of benefit (v) from beneficial to What are the benefits of studying academic vocabulary? Students can benefit from studying more vocabulary. Studying vocabulary is beneficial to your writing and speaking. Also related to usage are collocations, or common word combinations. This book includes all collocations from the ACL (Academic Collocations List) which use these words. A fourth step is to focus on pronunciation. Understanding the pronunciation of a word is important if you want to use the word correctly in your speaking, or understand it in a lecture. Pay particular attention to shifting stress as the word form changes. For example, the word BENefit has the stress on the first syllable, while beneFICial has the stress on the third syllable. Note that only pronunciation of headword is given in this book, so for this extended pronunciation work you would need to use a dictionary. 6 Buyer: Aida Mammadova (mammadova.aaaa94@gmail.com) Transaction ID: st-ch_1H3NhzFBjZvp9CXQR78mVLDb Sheldon Smith Academic Word List: Sublist 1 7 Buyer: Aida Mammadova (mammadova.aaaa94@gmail.com) Transaction ID: st-ch_1H3NhzFBjZvp9CXQR78mVLDb Unlock the Academic Word List: Sublists 1-3 analyse [ænəlaɪz] verb 1. make a mathematical, chemical, or grammatical analysis of; break down into components or essential features.

Computers, smartphones, global positioning systems (GPSs), MP3 players, and satellite radio might come to mind. All these groundbreaking advances, commonplace or unbelievable, rely on the principles of physics. Aside from playing a significant role in technology, professionals such as engineers, pilots, physicians, electricians, and _____________ programmers apply physics concepts in their daily work. For example, a pilot must understand how wind forces _____________ a flight path. As you will learn in this _____________, the principles of physics are propelling new, exciting technologies, and these principles are applied in a wide _____________ of careers. Physics, which comes from the Greek phúsis, meaning “nature”, is concerned with describing the interactions of energy, matter, space, and time to uncover the fundamental mechanisms that underlie every phenomenon. This concern for describing the basic phenomena in nature essentially defines the scope of physics. Physics aims to understand the world around us at the most basic level. It emphasizes the use of a small number of quantitative laws to do this, which can be useful to other fields pushing the performance boundaries of existing technologies. Consider a smartphone, such as the Apple iPhone. Physics describes how electricity is _____________ along the various circuits inside the device. This knowledge helps engineers _____________ the _____________ materials and circuit layout to _____________ an iPhone with _____________ that _____________ will enjoy. Knowledge of the physics underlying these devices is required to shrink their size or increase their processing speed. One specific _____________ of an iPhone is the GPS function. Physics describes the relationship between the speed of an object, the distance over which it travels, and the time it takes to travel that distance. When you use a GPS in a vehicle, it relies on physics _____________ to determine the travel time from one location to another. 107 Buyer: Aida Mammadova (mammadova.aaaa94@gmail.com) Transaction ID: st-ch_1H3NhzFBjZvp9CXQR78mVLDb Unlock the Academic Word List: Sublists 1-3 Source for Task 1 text: Adapted from University Physics Volume 1, 1.1: The Scope and Scale of Physics © 2017 Rice University.

Chemistry, for example—since it deals with the interactions of atoms and molecules—has close ties to atomic and molecular physics. Most branches of engineering are concerned with _____________ new technologies, processes, or structures within the constraints set by the laws of physics. In architecture, physics is at the heart of structural stability and is involved in the acoustics, heating, lighting, and cooling of buildings. Parts of geology rely heavily on physics, such as radioactive dating of rocks, earthquake analysis, and heat _____________ within Earth. Some disciplines, such as biophysics and geophysics, are hybrids of physics and other disciplines. Physics also has many applications in the biological sciences.

Some of these take place over a long period, for example a woman’s menstrual cycle which lasts 28 days, while others are much shorter. A circadian rhythm is a biological rhythm that takes place over a period of about 24 hours. Our sleep-wake cycle, which is linked to our environment’s natural light-dark cycle, is perhaps the most obvious example of a circadian rhythm, but we also have daily fluctuations in heart rate, blood pressure, blood sugar, and body temperature. Some circadian rhythms play a role in changes in our state of consciousness. Psychologists have identified several situations in which a person’s circadian clock gets out of synch with the external environment. One way that this happens is travel involves crossing multiple time zones. When we do this, we often experience jet lag, which is a collection of symptoms that results from the mismatch between our internal circadian cycles and our environment. These symptoms include fatigue, sluggishness, irritability, and insomnia (insomnia can be defined as a consistent difficulty in falling or staying asleep for at least three nights a week over a month’s time) (Roth, 2007). Similarly, individuals who do rotating shift work are also likely to experience disruptions in circadian cycles. Rotating shift work refers to a work schedule that changes from early to late on a daily or weekly basis. For example, a person may work from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on Monday, 3:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. on Tuesday, and 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday. In such instances, the schedule changes so frequently that it becomes difficult for a normal circadian rhythm to be maintained, often resulting in sleeping problems, depression and anxiety. Task 2: Focus on Meaning #2 When people have difficulty getting sleep due to their work or the demands of day-today life, they accumulate a sleep debt. A person with a sleep debt does not get sufficient sleep on a chronic basis. Sleep debt and sleep deprivation have significant negative psychological and physiological consequences. Lack of sleep can result in decreased mental alertness and depression-like symptoms. These effects can occur as a result of accumulated sleep debt or in response to more acute periods of sleep deprivation. Researchers have established a connection between sleep deprivation and obesity, increased blood pressure and increased levels of stress hormones (Banks & Dinges, 2007). Some sleep-deprived individuals have difficulty staying awake when 160 Buyer: Aida Mammadova (mammadova.aaaa94@gmail.com) Transaction ID: st-ch_1H3NhzFBjZvp9CXQR78mVLDb Sheldon Smith they stop moving (for example sitting and watching television or driving a car), and those suffering from sleep deprivation can put themselves and others at risk when they put themselves behind the wheel of a car or work with dangerous machinery. Some research suggests that sleep deprivation affects cognitive and motor function as much as, if not more than, alcohol intoxication (Williamson & Feyer, 2000). It is evident from this that getting sufficient sleep is crucial in leading a healthy life. Exactly what constitutes sufficient sleep, however, varies greatly across a person’s lifespan. Research by the National Sleep Foundation (n.d.) indicates that newborns require the most sleep, at between 12 and 18 hours a night, and that this amount declines to just 7–9 hours by the time we are adults.

Computers, smartphones, global positioning systems (GPSs), MP3 players, and satellite radio might come to mind. All these groundbreaking advances, commonplace or unbelievable, rely on the principles of physics. Aside from playing a significant role in technology, professionals such as engineers, pilots, physicians, electricians, and computer programmers apply physics concepts in their daily work. For example, a pilot must understand how wind forces affect a flight path. As you will learn in this text, the principles of physics are propelling new, exciting technologies, and these principles are applied in a wide range of careers. Physics, which comes from the Greek phúsis, meaning “nature”, is concerned with describing the interactions of energy, matter, space, and time to uncover the fundamental mechanisms that underlie every phenomenon. This concern for describing the basic phenomena in nature essentially defines the scope of physics. Physics aims to understand the world around us at the most basic level. It emphasizes the use of a small number of quantitative laws to do this, which can be useful to other fields pushing the performance boundaries of existing technologies. Consider a smartphone, such as the Apple iPhone. Physics describes how electricity is conducted along the various circuits inside the device. This knowledge helps engineers select the appropriate materials and circuit layout to construct an iPhone with features that consumers will enjoy. Knowledge of the physics underlying these devices is required to shrink their size or increase their processing speed. One specific feature of an iPhone is the GPS function. Physics describes the relationship between the speed of an object, the distance over which it travels, and the time it takes to travel that distance. When you use a GPS in a vehicle, it relies on physics equations to determine the travel time from one location to another. 164 Buyer: Aida Mammadova (mammadova.aaaa94@gmail.com) Transaction ID: st-ch_1H3NhzFBjZvp9CXQR78mVLDb Sheldon Smith Task 2: Focus on Meaning #2 Although physics can seem like a difficult and complex subject, knowledge of physics is useful in everyday situations as well as in nonscientific professions. It can assist you in understanding how microwave ovens work, why metals should not be put into them, and why they might affect pacemakers. Physics allows you to understand the hazards of radiation and to evaluate these hazards rationally and more easily. Physics also explains the regulation of heat, helping you understand how a black car radiator removes heat in a car engine and why a white roof keeps the inside of a house cool. Physics is a key element of many important disciplines and contributes directly to others. Chemistry, for example—since it deals with the interactions of atoms and molecules—has close ties to atomic and molecular physics. Most branches of engineering are concerned with designing new technologies, processes, or structures within the constraints set by the laws of physics. In architecture, physics is at the heart of structural stability and is involved in the acoustics, heating, lighting, and cooling of buildings. Parts of geology rely heavily on physics, such as radioactive dating of rocks, earthquake analysis, and heat transfer within Earth. Some disciplines, such as biophysics and geophysics, are hybrids of physics and other disciplines. Physics also has many applications in the biological sciences. In conclusion, physics contains the most basic aspects of science. It helps us to understand the world around us and is used by all the sciences, meaning the study of physics makes other sciences easier to understand.

World War II veterans and baby boomers of both sexes and all ethnicities began to make their influence felt politically, economically, and culturally. Their efforts helped unravel the national consensus and laid bare a far more fragmented society. As a result, men and women from all ethnic groups attempted to reform American society to make it more equitable. The United States also began to take unprecedented steps to exert a positive influence on the world. No one symbolized the hopes and energies of the new decade more than John Fitzgerald Kennedy, the nation’s new, young president. Kennedy had emphasized the country’s aspirations and challenges as a “new frontier” when accepting his party’s nomination at the Democratic National Convention in Los Angeles, California. Kennedy focused most of his energies on foreign policy, an arena in which he had been interested since his college years and in which, like all presidents, he was less constrained by the dictates of Congress. Kennedy, who had promised in his inaugural address to protect the interests of the “free world,” engaged in Cold War politics on a variety of fronts. For instance, in response to the lead that the Soviets had taken in the space race when Yuri Gagarin became the first human to successfully orbit the earth, Kennedy urged Congress to not only put a man into space but also land an American on the moon, an outcome finally accomplished in 1969. This investment advanced a variety of military technologies, especially the nation’s longrange missile capability, resulting in a great volume of profitable spin-offs for the aviation and communication industries. It also funded a growing middle class of government workers, engineers, and defence contractors in states ranging from California to Texas to Florida—a region that would come to be known as the Sun Belt—becoming a symbol of American technological superiority. At the same time, however, the use of massive federal resources for space technologies did not change the economic outlook for low-income communities and underprivileged regions. 170 Buyer: Aida Mammadova (mammadova.aaaa94@gmail.com) Transaction ID: st-ch_1H3NhzFBjZvp9CXQR78mVLDb Sheldon Smith Task 2: Focus on Meaning #2 Cold War concerns, which guided U.S. policy in Cuba and Vietnam, also motivated the Kennedy administration’s steps toward racial equality. Realizing that legal segregation and widespread discrimination hurt the country’s chances of gaining political and economic partners in Africa, Asia, and Latin America, the federal government increased efforts to secure the civil rights of African Americans in the 1960s. Kennedy had initially supported civil rights. His efforts during his presidential campaign to secure the release of civil rights leader Martin Luther King, Jr., who was arrested following a demonstration, won him the African American vote. Lacking widespread backing in Congress, however, and anxious not to offend white southerners, Kennedy was cautious in taking up the task of assisting African Americans in their fight for full citizenship rights. His strongest focus was on securing the voting rights of African Americans. Kennedy feared southern white Democrats would remove the support on which his government relied. He also worried about the impact a struggle over civil rights could have on his foreign policy agenda as well as on his re-election in 1964. But he thought voter registration drives far preferable to the boycotts, sit-ins, and integration marches that had dominated global media coverage in previous years. Encouraged by Congress’s passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1960, which permitted federal courts to appoint referees to ensure that qualified persons would be registered to vote, Kennedy focused on the passage of a constitutional amendment outlawing poll taxes, a tactic that southern states used to disenfranchise African American voters. It passed both houses of Congress and was sent to the states for ratification in September 1962. Kennedy also reacted to the demands of the civil rights movement for equality in education. Two examples illustrate this very clearly. The first is his response to riots which broke out on campus when African American student James Meredith, encouraged by Kennedy’s speeches, attempted to enrol at the segregated University of Mississippi in 1962. Kennedy sent the U.S. Army and National Guard to Oxford, Mississippi, to ensure support for U.S. Marshals that his brother Robert, the attorney general, had dispatched. The second example is the 1963 bill that Kennedy published following similar violence at the University of Alabama when two African American students were excluded after attempting to enrol, The bill would give the federal government greater power to enforce school desegregation, prohibit segregation in public accommodations, and outlaw discrimination in employment. Kennedy would not live to see his bill enacted; it would become law during Lyndon Johnson’s administration as the 1964 Civil Rights Act. 171 Buyer: Aida Mammadova (mammadova.aaaa94@gmail.com) Transaction ID: st-ch_1H3NhzFBjZvp9CXQR78mVLDb Unlock the Academic Word List: Sublists 1-3 Task 3: Collocations #1 The following are the collocations: carry out/complete/perform (a) develop/employ/use (a) achieve (an)/affect (the) give/ place/shift meet/use task technique outcome emphasis criteria The following is the collocations as per the exercise in the book: carry out/complete/perform (a) emphasis develop/employ/use (a) criteria achieve (an)/affect (the) task give/ place/shift technique meet/use outcome Task 4: Collocations #2 a) Several patients suffered adverse reactions/chemical reactions to the medication, such as increased heart rate and headaches. b) Cigarette smoke plays a minor change/minor role in global warming. c) Many people consider repetition to be the core element/central core of language learning. d) For millions of years dinosaurs were the dominant form/dominant role of life on Earth. e) The new breakthrough in cancer research will have major implications/social implications for those suffering from the disease. f) Many cases of sexual orientation/sexual violence go unreported to the police. g) The medication did not have the desired outcome/final outcome the doctors were seeking and the patient’s condition grew worse. 172 Buyer: Aida Mammadova (mammadova.aaaa94@gmail.com) Transaction ID: st-ch_1H3NhzFBjZvp9CXQR78mVLDb Sheldon Smith Task 5: Collocations #3 causal/ direct/ strong Moral/ natural/ political complex/ human/ significant/ social amount (of)/ degree (of)/ importance/ detail/ extent/ attention/ debate/ effort/ evidence/ influence/ interest/ research/ support/ variation approach/ explanation/ form/ interpretation/ means/ method/ model/ solution/ source/ strategy/ view/ way certain/ changing/ exceptional/ historical/ local/ personal/ political/ social/ special activity/ appearance/ characteristics/ contact/ development/ environment/ features/ health/ needs/ presence/ properties/ proximity/ science/ space/ symptom/ world basic/ essential/ fundamental/ individual/ key/ main/ major aspect/ assistance/ detail/ expertise/ issue/ knowledge/ problem/ skill/ support/ term aspect/ attitude/ connotation/ consequences/ correlation/ effect/ feedback/ impact/ outcome/ side/ stereotype/ value/ view conceptual/ institutional/ legal/ regulatory/ theoretical (a) great/ (a) high/ (a) increasing/ (a) large/ (a) significant/ (a) small 173 link philosophy interaction considerable alternative circumstances physical component technical negative framework proportion (of) Buyer: Aida Mammadova (mammadova.aaaa94@gmail.com) Transaction ID: st-ch_1H3NhzFBjZvp9CXQR78mVLDb Unlock the Academic Word List: Sublists 1-3 Task 6: Word form #1 a) The experiment was conducted in way which maximised/maximized (maximum) the chances of success. b) Many immigrants (immigrate) face discrimination when they arrive in a new country. c) The age of the respondents was unspecified (specify) so we do not know what it is. d) The layering (layer) of igneous rocks can give them an attractive appearance. e) The head offices will be relocated (locate) to a new city. f) The case for global warming is well documented (document). g) The pages of the book are numbered sequentially (sequence). h) Although the presentation was in Chinese, it was accompanied by written commentary (comment) in English. i) Children constantly (constant) make mistakes, which is a vital part of learning. j) The programme has a new coordinator (coordinate), who is inexperienced by very eager. k) Many business corporations (corporate) seek to reduce tax by using offshore funds. l) They used the schematic(s) (scheme) of the building to locate the underground wiring. m) If there is insufficient (sufficient) supply of food to meet demand, some people will go hungry.
