The "Wisdom Reading" series emphasizes language skills, returns to the essence of Chinese language education, and cultivates intelligence—taking a right and distinctive approach.

Throughout history, both inside and outside the classroom, we have heard and seen countless famous quotes about reading. Here, we propose a new reading motto: "Tasteful and Sophisticated." This may not qualify as a famous quote about reading, but it is a truthful statement, an experience-based insight, and even a remedy for "blind reading," "superficial reading," and "pseudo reading."
"Blind reading" is reading without purpose, choice, or discernment—grabbing anything to read. "Superficial reading" seeks ease and satisfaction in reading images, distancing oneself from classics. "Pseudo reading" mocks dignity, trivializes heroes, makes vulgarity fashionable, and uses lowbrow appeal as a selling point. These are all pitfalls of reading. In recent years, under the banner of consumerism, our reading lives have faced unprecedented confusion and lack. Fast-paced, quick-reading habits have eroded the intrinsic charm of reading, while boredom and monotony have killed its aesthetic appeal.
Calling for "tasteful reading" means returning to life, experiencing life, letting imagination soar, and bringing joy to the body and mind. Promoting "sophisticated reading" means nurturing the spirit, refining one's nature, transcending time and space, and illuminating life. Interest sustains motivation, while taste elevates style. With motivation, one can persevere; with style, one can find meaning. The world of reading is a splendid one. To appreciate its infinite wonders, one must immerse oneself completely. Restlessness and superficiality cannot savor beautiful passages. Read, reflect, practice, savor words and phrases, absorb the essence of texts, and enjoy the charm of culture. From "Wisdom Reading" to "Wisdom Life," use the "Gold Edition Training" to build a golden life. This is our good wish in launching "Wisdom Reading · Gold Edition Training."
Embrace classics, appreciate nobility, savor beauty, and life will be fulfilling, refined, and nourished. This is the value and pursuit of "Wisdom Reading · Gold Edition Training," and it is our sincere effort to share a golden life with readers.
