Features: The purpose of compiling this book is "Rooted in the present, looking to the future." The way the content is presented is designed to suit the reading habits of middle school students. For example, in the "Reading Navigator," familiar terms for middle school students such as "Main Idea" and "Artistic Features" are used as headings, while the specific content is carefully crafted to expand students' "Zone of Proximal Development." Greater emphasis is placed on the timeliness, novelty, and practicality of the content. For instance, the "Extended Reading Guide" for Dream of the Red Chamber introduces Romeo and Juliet and Song of Youth to broaden perspectives and open up new ways of thinking. By comparing the similarities and differences between ancient and modern, as well as Chinese and foreign literature, students' interest in reading is stimulated, their aesthetic appreciation is cultivated, and their spiritual realm is elevated. The 30 classic works covered in this book are recommended for middle school students by the current Ministry of Education's "Teaching Syllabus" and "New Curriculum Standards." The first 10 are for junior high school students, and the last 20 are for senior high school students. The order follows the "Recommended Reading List."
