Features: In the compilation of the "Intermediate Reader (3rd Edition)," the following principles are specifically reflected:
1. Adhering to the "syllabus": Basic knowledge is strictly controlled within the scope of the compulsory teaching syllabus and new textbooks, primarily focusing on consolidating, enhancing, and supplementing in-class learning, supplemented by explanations of competition-related knowledge. As long as readers master the content taught in class, they should be able to smoothly study this textbook without needing additional knowledge.
2. Strict synchronization with in-class teaching: The development of extracurricular activities in mathematics must be closely coordinated with in-class teaching to both improve the quality of junior high school mathematics education and broaden students' horizons, fostering mathematical thinking and methods. Therefore, this textbook strictly aligns with the in-class teaching sequence, eliminating the need for learning of advanced knowledge or methods to keep pace with in-class lessons.
3. Popularization, accessibility, and conciseness: "Prioritizing popularization and then improvement" is our fundamental principle for organizing junior high school mathematics extracurricular activities. This textbook has removed many advanced contents from past "tutor lectures," appropriately reducing the difficulty and requirements to truly reflect its popularization and accessibility. It benefits both the junior high school entrance exam and competition requirements, making it easy for teachers to guide and for students to self-study and comprehend.
4. Practice to grasp key principles: Practice is a crucial part of learning. It not only consolidates acquired knowledge but also helps students learn new knowledge, methods, and techniques, cultivating independent thinking skills. This book provides a sufficient number of A and B sets of exercises after each lesson. Detailed answers are included at the end of the book for reference.
