Features: This book is strictly compiled according to the new postgraduate entrance exam syllabus. The entire book is divided into 25 units, each unit structured into three sections (A, B, C) based on the new syllabus:
Section A: Multiple Choice Questions, consisting of four passages. The passages are newly selected, with out-of-syllabus words strictly controlled within 3% of the syllabus allowance. They particularly highlight the distractors in the options, aiming to avoid simplistic questions. The fourth passage is the most challenging, posing a test to the examinees' comprehension skills. For this passage, it is advisable to allocate slightly more time for answering. This book corrects the common shortcomings of current postgraduate entrance exam reading materials: outdated passage selection, excessive out-of-syllabus words (some passages even contain as many as 20-30), and simplistic, childish option design that allows questions to be answered without fully understanding the passages. Considering the students' actual needs, detailed explanations and complete translations are provided for each passage.
Section B: Matching Questions. Based on the author's extensive research on new question types, these questions are meticulously crafted according to the new syllabus, with detailed explanations and complete translations provided. Their difficulty level is equivalent to or slightly higher than that of actual exam questions.
Section C: English-Chinese Translation. English-Chinese translation has always been a challenging and low-scoring section. What makes this book exceptional is that it not only provides translations but also explains the thought process behind the translation.
