Abstract
The vocabulary in authorized textbooks of English by the Ministry of Education has long been criticized as too receptive compared with those of other countries. It is said to be of little use when students try to express themselves or meet their dairy needs in English. The author has found that the vocabulary in the authorized textbooks of English I and II is not as helpful to his students as expected in real situations. He guesses the neglect of "action verbs of daily lives," verbs concerning our behaviors and activities in daily lives,in authorized textbooks might be one of the causes of their uselessness in real situations.
