《Phonics Step-By-Step 4: Long Vowel Digraphs》 自然發音拼讀系列的第四冊Long Vowel Digraphs (複合長母音)，延續長母音教學主軸，練習常見的複合長母音。複合長母音為兩個母音或字母發一個長母音的音組，認識母音組合變化，產生出新的發音，如：ai/ay、ea/ee、oa/ow等音組。再次強調了學習自然發音法目的，是學習字母之間的對應關係。 《Phonics Step-By-Step 5: Gliding Vowels》 自然發音拼讀系列的第五冊為Gliding Vowels，又被稱作為Diphthong (雙母音) ，是以兩個字母為主軸，共同發一個音節。在音節裡的兩個母音或兩個字母，組合成一個整體的發音，如：a_l、a_u、a_w、o_i、o_y、o_o、u_e、o_u、o_w 等音組，會在發音時從第一個字母開始發音連動滑音到第二個字母，產生嘴型的變化，以及舌位的滑動，而得名。由於有兩個母音或兩個字母的發音，所有雙母音都有發音的起始和結束。 《Phonics Step-By-Step 6: R-Controlled Vowels》 為自然發音拼讀系列第六冊。此冊的 R-Controlled Vowels (受R 控制的母音) 是以受 R 控制的母音為主軸，當母音 a、e、i、o、u後面接上子音 r 時，子音 r 會影響母音的發音，如： ar、er、ir、or、ur 等音組。這些音組也會有長音〔ɝ〕以及短音〔ɚ〕的不同發音，透過反覆的音組練習，學習者可以快速領略自然發音讓你輕鬆說英文的樂趣。 《Read&Learn -Party Time!》 Party Time!是屬於你我的第一個派對，從準備工作，包括: 邀請、需求、裝飾等，到如何享受派對中的一切，讓我們一起來打造自己的派對。精彩圖文搭配多元習題，陪伴孩子用實用的英文，認識派對的精彩元素，以及如何清楚表達歡樂的時光。和 Read&Learn 一起，潛進英語的多元宇宙，輕鬆學好英語！ 《Read&Learn -I Love My Mom》 I Love My Mom是 Read&Learn英語悅讀誌的系列讀本之一！ 媽媽是我們生命中重要的人，本冊陪伴孩子換位思考，體會媽媽的愛與辛勞。 精彩圖文搭配多元見習，I Love My Mo

Doctor Strange, one of Marvel’s most fascinating early characters, began at the hands of co-creators Stan Lee and Steve Ditko, and his ethereal voyages through other dimensions made him an important figure in 1960s culture.From his first appearance in 1963, Strange captivated a wide range of readers. Over his first ten years, a succession of writers and artists—including Roy Thomas, Gene Colan, Gardner F. Fox, P. Craig Russell, Marie Severin, and notably Steve Englehart and Frank Brunner—expanded on Ditko’s original mind-bending concepts.This entry in the MARVEL AGE OF COMICS explores Strange’s changing roles as a mystic, super hero, and leader of a chaotic team called the Defenders, and the rise of his popularity, in parallel with the counterculture of the 1960s.
