Features: Each story in the book relates to one of the five senses of humans: the radio announcer who is blind, which becomes her advantage; the battle hero who hates noise and is determined to seek tranquility; the wine expert who lost his sense of taste after a car accident; the university teacher learning Tai Chi; and a magazine reporter with a keen sense of smell who always tends to create trouble out of nothing. The Cambridge English Readers series is specially written for young learners of English from non-English speaking countries. It differs from the usual abridged versions of famous novels. The authors of this series are either experienced TEFL teachers in the UK with many years of teaching experience or novelists themselves. They carefully select vocabulary and grammar points, creating these engaging works in authentic English, arranged in levels from low to high, progressively. The novels cover a wide range of genres, including adventures, mysteries, science fiction, romance, comedy, and more. The themes are modern and, reflecting different regional and cultural aspects of both Eastern and Western societies, making the reading experience immersive and enjoyable. Extensive reading has always been the big secret of English learning. It allows learners to use their own time and set their own pace, and the key to success is—reading for pleasure! Foreign Language Teaching and Research Press has introduced this new original novel series from Cambridge University Press. To meet the diverse needs of Chinese readers, the series is published in both English-Chinese bilingual and English-annotated formats. We hope that readers will enjoy the pleasure of reading while further improving their English skills!
