Features:
1. The textbook used as the basis for this book is the nine-grade "Chinese" upper and lower volumes of the experimental curriculum standard textbooks for compulsory education published by the People's Education Press.
2. For each classical Chinese poem and prose in the textbook, this book sets five columns: "Small Knowledge," "Comparative Annotation and Translation," "Commentary," "Key Learning Points," and "Reading Guide."
- "Small Knowledge" introduces knowledge related to the text and the author.
- "Comparative Annotation and Translation" adopts a form of vertical annotations and translations, separated by horizontal lines. The text is above the line, with corresponding annotations below the line, and the translation follows the annotations.
- "Commentary" provides analysis of the content, themes, and writing style of the text but does not cover everything comprehensively.
- "Key Learning Points" highlights the main knowledge points that should be mastered for each piece.
- "Reading Guide" offers concise tips on how to better grasp the learning content.
3. Terms, allusions, biographical details, sentence patterns, and other aspects that are difficult to explain within the annotation lines are explained between the annotation and translation lines, starting a new line and marked with an asterisk at the beginning.
4. Omission of sentence components is common in classical Chinese poetry and prose. For prose pieces in this book, omitted words are supplemented as appropriate and marked in parentheses. Poems, ci poems, and qu poems are not supplemented because these literary forms have a high degree of flexibility, frequent omissions, and often altered word order, making it impractical to mark them individually.
