Features: "New Grammar Thinking" proposes that grammar is not a "dead" set of sentence rules, but a "living" form of linguistic thinking. "New Grammar Thinking" not only teaches you "what" the rules are but also helps you understand "why" they exist. This way, you not only master the rules but also develop an English way of thinking. Zhang Mansheng, founder of the New Oriental School's English grammar training program, has worked in English translation and teaching for many years. Through extensive English practice, he broke away from traditional grammar teaching methods and proposed the brand-new concept of "grammar as thinking." This approach transforms grammar learning from memorizing "dead" rules into cultivating a "living" English mindset. He authored the book "New Grammar Thinking in English," which ranked second in the national foreign language bestseller list of "21st Century English News" in 2000. The series of grammar he has now launched, including "New Grammar Thinking in English - Getting Closer to Grammar," "New Grammar Thinking in English - Understanding Grammar," and "New Grammar Thinking in English - Mastering Grammar," is the result of over a decade of dedicated research.
