Features: This is a four-volume series of English classified reading books. The series recommends English articles of various styles and genres to readers, some rigorous and meticulous, others rough and casual. They are all practical English used in real-life applications, covering multiple fields such as culture, science, geography, history, classics, and more.

Particularly, they enable 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.

If you spend 15 minutes or half an hour reading them each night, you are sure to benefit from them.

It can also be used as a teaching reference for high school and university teachers.
