Features: This book consists of ten units, each including two texts. It emphasizes the training of fundamental language skills and the development of practical language abilities. Therefore, a large number of exercises are provided after each text, including answering questions, topic discussions, vocabulary exercises, cloze tests, translation, and writing. Each unit also features an oral skills section that highlights the book's unique approach. This part includes several hot topics related to the texts, requiring students to practice in class or after class to further enhance their practical English proficiency. Each unit also includes supplementary materials and proverbs. The supplementary materials consist of three parts: idiomatic expressions, vocabulary enrichment, and reading appreciation. The idiomatic and vocabulary exercises are unrelated to the texts and are primarily intended for students with a solid language foundation or those preparing for international English exams. Reading appreciation introduces the origins of English idioms and literary works such as essays and poems of high literary value to improve students' literary cultivation. Proverbs are usually related to the texts and are designed to deepen students' cultural understanding.
