Many thanks to the people who give me the 2 following answers :

1. Try anonymous ftp to ftp.uu.net. 
   There is a bunch of directories there that contain dictionaries,
such as: /doc/dictionaries/English

2. Try the Oxford Text Archive by anonymous ftp at black.ox.ac.uk
(129.67.1.165), directory ota/dicts.
