Features: To promote English learning among Chinese middle school students, cultivate their cultural literacy and literary appreciation, Shanghai Foreign Language Education Press (SFLP) after long deliberation and market research, decided to introduce a series of abridged editions of literary classics from the British Macmillan Publishing Company to Chinese middle school students. SFLP carefully selected 40 books from Macmillan's series of abridged literary classics, compiling them into a "Relaxed Classics Series," with difficulty levels spanning Grades 3-8 of the "English Curriculum Standards." This series includes classic works by literary masters from the UK, the US, France, and other countries, featuring the works of renowned authors such as Shakespeare, Dickens, Mark Twain, Hardy, and Alexandre Dumas. To help middle school students better grasp the essence of the original works and the creative journey of the authors, SFLP has also specially annotated the language difficulties in the reading materials and included background introductions about the authors and their works. We sincerely hope that the "Relaxed Classics Series" will help improve the literary appreciation level of Chinese middle school students, cultivate their moral sentiments, enhance their English reading ability, and become the golden key to opening the door to reading English literary classics for middle school students.
