大學英語拓展閱讀教程(精階篇)（簡體書）

《大學英語拓展閱讀教程(精階篇)》旨在通過教師課上指導、學生課下自主學習的方式拓寬學生視野、培養他們的終生學習能力。全教程由基礎篇、進階篇、提高篇、高階篇和精階篇五冊組成，每冊十個單元。每單元設計一個主題的形式，單元中各模塊的設計符合學生的閱讀規律，如閱讀知識面拓展、技巧訓練、能力培養、實戰演練和興趣開發。練習題型的設計主要是幫助學生閱讀過程中猜測生詞詞義、預測文章內容，運用“相互關聯”(Interactive)閱讀模式，將“用法”(Usage)與“運用”(Use)有機地結合。同時，為適應CET4/6考試要求，增加了快速閱讀和細讀(In-depth reading)真題訓練，達到“學”以致“用”的目的。
