Features: This is a four-volume series of English reading materials categorized by genre. The book recommends English articles with diverse styles and formats, ranging from rigorous and meticulous to rough and casual. These are practical English examples covering multiple fields such as culture, science, geography, history, classics, and more, in forms like essays, narratives, prose, biographies, speeches, and fables. It strikes a well-balanced exploration and harmony in terms of knowledge, interest, modernity, test-preparation, gradual progression, and comprehensiveness. Especially, it enables readers to quickly grasp current topics and vivid expressions that are often difficult to encounter due to the relative lag and uniformity of traditional English textbooks. Each volume consists of 50 short passages, each accompanied by "Reading Guidance," "Reference Translation," "Reading Review," "Self-Assessment," and "Answer Key," suitable for reading one passage per day. If you spend 15 minutes or half an hour reading them each night, you are sure to benefit from them. The primary readers of this book are college students with a general English proficiency and middle school students with higher English skills. It can also be used as a teaching reference for middle school and university teachers.
