Features: "Nature," "Self," "Society," "Science," "Culture," and "Spirit" are the six major elements in our daily lives and also the six themes of humanities reading. We strive to enable students to "read classic works and engage in dialogues with masters," combining arts and sciences, discussing the past and present, and exploring both Eastern and Western perspectives. Through this series of books, we aim to develop students' noble human nature, help them gain a comprehensive understanding of various expression methods and literary genres, enhance their language skills, and achieve humanities-based cultivation. Our pursuit is to enable students to progress layer by layer and step by step in their reading, while expanding their horizons in sync with their textbooks is also the readers' aspiration. This volume is themed around "Humans and Things," intending to explore the "Self" beyond nature and society through reading articles. It analyzes the value of the self, examines what constitutes a healthy life, and discusses how to perceive emotions in life. This will enable us to adopt a dialectical approach to life, recognize its essence, open our hearts, and better embrace the nature and society around us.
