【Abstract】With the further progress of the social development， a large number of talents who are proficient in English are required to make contribution to our country. As for cultivating English talents， knowing the various semantic meaning with structure and context is the priority. In a real-world setting， passages are not showed in isolation， but rather in a cohesive manner that involves a sequence of related questions to meet user’s information needs. This article is divided into three parts. The first part is Literature Review. The second part aims to analyze the examples which are related to semantic meaning with structure and context in English writing and find out the existing problems based on them. In the third part， conclusion will be made. By using the knowledge of cognitive linguistic and through analysis and research， this article hopes to provide reference for later research.

1. Introduction
When a word or a sentence is placed in a specific context， the meaning it expresses can only be one of various semantic meanings with structure and even becomes a temporary meaning which cannot be found in the dictionary. The exact meaning of a word must be limited by its locale. “Try to figure out contextual meaning of words.” And the situation that a word with distinctive semantic meanings is called polysemy.
Polysemy is a pivotal concept within disciplines such as media studies and linguistics. It has applications in pedagogy and machine learning， because they rely on word-sense disambiguation and schemas. The phenomenon of polysemy is extremely common in English. Many studies have been made by experts and scholars， and some achievements have been made.
2. Literature Review
According to Robinson（2008）， Cognitive Linguistics an interdisciplinary branch of linguistics， combining knowledge and research from both psychology and linguistics. It describes how language interacts with cognition， how language forms our thoughts， and the evolution of language parallel with the change in the common mindset across time. Webster（2003） holds that the word “cognitive” is defined as “of， relating to， being， or involving conscious intellectual activity （such as thinking， reasoning， or remembering）”. Merriam-Webster also defines linguistics as “the study of human speech including the units， nature， structure， and modification of language”.
