Features: This book is the lower part of the Extensive Reading Course, consisting of ten lessons, with each lesson comprising three articles centered around the same theme. The main text (Text A) and supplementary text (Text B) are approximately 2,000 words in length, designed for student reading and discussion, while Text C is about 900 words long and serves as a fast-reading exercise. The book features a rich vocabulary with a high frequency of common words. To this end, 20 vocabulary exercises are provided after each lesson's Text C to help students better master the vocabulary of the three articles in the lesson and improve their basic language skills and application abilities. The Extensive Reading Course for Graduate Students primarily selects common contemporary English styles and genres as material, with most articles sourced from recently published authentic publications in the UK and the US. The reading content not only covers several contemporary focal topics but also pays attention to the diversity and breadth of genres. The entire course's language materials are fresh, full of a sense of the times, and possess a certain degree of interest.
