Features: The "Quick English" series is compiled based on the English curriculum standards. The junior high school part is written according to the "New Target English" by the People's Education Press, while also taking into account the versions of English textbooks from Hebei Education Press, Yilin Press, and some provincial and municipal editions, so students can share many aspects in their use. The senior high school part is completely synchronized with the new People's Education Press curriculum. Additionally, the series has thoroughly researched and absorbed the trends in the 2006 college entrance examination and the provincial and municipal junior high school entrance examination question-setting, reflecting the writing principle of aiming for the junior high school entrance examination from the seventh grade and aiming for the college entrance examination from the first year of senior high school. Therefore, whether in content or in question design, the series is the newest and most representative. The main features of the series:
Reading Comprehension: The selected passages cover a wide range of themes and genres, serving as an extension of textbook content, involving various fields such as foreign cultures, customs, history, and literature.

There are also hot topics close to campus life, such as the latest news on film and television celebrities and football stars, and lively campus-related discussions. The question design is more flexible and diverse, examining both "micro" reading skills and "macro" reading abilities.
Listening Training: The materials are lively and engaging, closely aligned with the junior high school and senior high school entrance examination question types. The recordings are made at teaching speed with clear pronunciation.
