understand authentic language and comprehend thematic meanings from the context. Therefore, flexibly combining the thematic context with
junior high English vocabulary teaching is a priority for English teachers in junior high school from the unit instructional perspective prompted by new curriculum standards. In the whole text, at first, I state the current problems of vocabulary teaching in middle school, then analyzing the necessity of vocabulary teaching based on the thematic context according to the English Curriculum Standards for compulsory Education (2022). At last, I present specific teaching procedures of vocabulary teaching according to the thematic context in an example of Unit 8
