Features: Easy-to-Read Classics Series. To promote English learning among Chinese middle school students and cultivate their cultural literacy and literary appreciation, Shanghai Foreign Language Education Press (SFLP) conducted extensive market research and decided to introduce a series of abridged literary classics from Macmillan Publishing Company in the UK to Chinese middle school students. SFLP carefully selected 40 books from Macmillan's abridged literary classics series, compiling them into the "Easy-to-Read Classics Series," with difficulty levels spanning Levels 3 to 8 of the "English Curriculum Standards." This series includes classic works by literary masters from the UK, the US, France, and other countries, featuring the works of renowned authors such as Shakespeare, Dickens, Mark Twain, Hardy, and Alexandre Dumas. To help middle school students better grasp the essence of the original works and the creative journeys of the authors, SFLP has also provided annotations for language difficulties in the texts and included background introductions about the authors and their works. We sincerely hope that the "Easy-to-Read Classics Series" will help improve the literary appreciation skills of Chinese middle school students, refine their moral character, enhance their English reading abilities, and serve as the golden key to opening the door to reading English literary classics.
