What does the underlined word “lexicographer” (Line 1, Para.1) most probably mean?

A.proofreader

B.compiler or writer of a dictionary

C.scholar translator

D.transformationalist generativist

参考答案：B

参考解析：

词义猜测题。根据文章第一段第一句“For half a century, language experts have fallen into two camps, with most lexicographers and academic linguists on one side, and traditionalist writers and editors on the other”可知lexicographers应和traditionalist writers and editors相对；根据“lexico”可知词意应该与“dictionary”有关。故选B。
