Features: As everyone knows, English is of great importance in today's society. However, in school, many students find English uninteresting because they think it is dull, monotonous, and rigid. Faced with students' aversion to learning English, as a teacher, I also feel sad. So I have a dream—I hope my students can learn English without pain, can learn it easily, and can learn it beyond textbooks. The author of this book takes material from the English version of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" and combines it with explanations of English grammar and vocabulary. Without a doubt, "Harry Potter" is the favorite of both young and old readers recently. In the original English version, we can not only read a story full of fantasy and creativity but also greatly benefit from learning English. The author, Mr. Wang Haoming, through the brilliant original work, identifies commonly used English phrases and vocabulary in daily life, explains them, and teaches readers how to use them. For example: the versatile "Like"; the difference between "Lay" and "Lie"; the multiple uses of "Up to"; and "Don't beat around the bush." While enjoying the novel, readers can also learn English effortlessly. This book is particularly suitable for middle school students and the general public.
