Features: The purpose of this reading material is to collect and organize several sets of reading test questions with a relatively traditional and forward-looking perspective, enabling candidates to engage in divergent reading, thinking, and self-assessment while also promptly returning to the analytical approach of the traditional college entrance examination reading section. The testing of the reading section in the college entrance examination assesses comprehension, which stems from the accumulation of a wide range of topics, genres, and different knowledge. Therefore, the arrangement of reading in this book includes a part that covers a broad range of topics and genres to broaden the candidates' horizons. Subsequently, it repeatedly returns to traditional college entrance examination test questions for self-assessment. These questions are selected from the reading sections of college entrance examination papers from various years in Shanghai, Guangdong, Beijing, and other regions since 1999. Additionally, to compensate for any gaps and as a between the two parts of timed reading, some short essays such as proverbs, tour guide phrases, and small advertisements are inserted. This allows candidates to relax during reading, expand their knowledge, and practice comprehension and translation, as understanding is essential for translation.
