Features: The improvement of writing skills is largely achieved through imitative learning. Therefore, this textbook aims to provide students with a comprehensive, diverse, and richly illustrated reference tool that is easy to read. The content covers writing theory as well as the meaning, characteristics, types, writing methods, steps, and formatting norms of nearly 80 specific writing styles across 30 categories. To cultivate learners' sense of language and stylistic awareness, a large number of targeted and highly illustrative examples are included. Additionally, content summaries are provided before each chapter and section, with the table of contents and section summaries corresponding to each other for ease of reading and understanding. As a result, students can still use it as a writing reference tool after the course concludes. The textbook is organized in accordance with the fundamental principles of writing theory and the basic process of writing skill development, striving for a scientific and focused system that meets the needs of higher education talent cultivation.
Oral language proficiency is also a form of invisible writing. Language teaching should completely transform the notion of prioritizing written language over oral language. The cultivation of eloquence is mutually reinforcing with writing ability, and neither should be neglected. This textbook provides a detailed introduction to the characteristics of speech activities, how to prepare for a speech, the writing of speeches, and performance techniques for speeches. It is believed to be of great help in improving students' public speaking skills.
