博客來語言學習類「年度之最」，熱銷10年全新改版！教你掌握讀英文最基本、最重要，卻最多人忽略的觀念：「一個句子只有一個主詞、一個動詞！」觀念正確，就算句子再複雜也能一看就懂！「單字都看得懂，連在一起變成句子就一片混亂！」「看完句子抓不到重點，只好從頭再看一次，花了很多時間！」「想搞清楚句子裡的每個單字和文法，結果讀得很慢，也愈來愈沒興趣！」本書作者黃玟君老師於國立台灣科技大學應用外語系任教多年，時常擔任國高中英語教學研習講師、受邀為企業開設英語進修課程。她觀察到，國人明明學了英文多年，卻還會有上述的困擾，多是出在學習觀念不正確，以至於出現「不斷背單字、卻看不懂句子」的情況。本書的目標就是破解這些英文閱讀困境，從最核心的觀念「一個句子，只有一個主詞、一個動詞」出發，不論句子多長、多複雜，都可以運用這個原則，快速讀懂句子的重點，從此改造你的閱讀力！一個句子只有一個主詞、一個動詞！每個英文句子都只能有一個主詞、一個動詞，其餘內容都是用於修飾、補充的「廣義形容詞」。舉例來說：The girl in a beautiful red dress likes me.The girl wearing a beautiful red dress with a lovely smile likes me.這兩個句子的主詞都是The girl（那個女孩）、動詞是likes（喜歡），雖然兩句各有修飾「女孩」的內容，但重點都是：The girl likes me.（那個女孩喜歡我。）只要找出句子的「主詞 + 動詞」，就已經掌握了句子的意思，閱讀內容再多、句型再變化也不怕！跳躍式閱讀，英文別再逐字看！聰明的讀英文方式，不是由左而右一字一字前進的「線性閱讀」，而是「跳躍式閱讀」──聚焦句子的主詞、動詞，迅速掌握重點。你可以現在試試看：After 10 years on the run, the criminal was apprehended by the police during a routine traffic stop.（逍遙法外十年的罪犯在警方一次例行的交通臨檢中被逮捕。）如果你快速掃過這個句子，能夠一眼看出主詞是the criminal（罪犯）、動詞是was apprehended（被逮捕），就算沒有細讀每個字，也會立刻知道：「有個罪犯被逮捕了！」用這樣的方式熟練跳躍式閱讀，聚焦重

這本書是一本獨特、實用且充滿關懷的手冊，收集了許多經歷過喪妻或失去伴侶之痛的男性們的親身經歷、日常軼事與誠懇建議。作者 Jan Robinson 在丈夫突然驟逝後，開始向她所遇到的每一位寡婦詢問度過喪偶悲痛的建議，並將其集結成第一本書《Tips from Widows》。令她驚訝的是，那本書出版後不僅收到寡婦們的迴響，也收到許多鰥夫的求助與反饋。於是她進一步蒐集了男性們的經驗，推出了這本專門寫給喪偶男性的指南，幫助他們在面對巨大哀傷時找到前進的力量。With foreword by journalist Robert Peston When Jan Robinson's husband died suddenly and unexpectedly, she had the idea of asking any other widows, whenever and wherever she met them, for two tips about how to deal with widowhood. From this advice, she constructed her beautiful first volume, Tips from Widows. To Robinson's surprise, the book generated an overwhelming response not only from widows, but also from widowers.From these outpourings it became evident that a second book, this time for widowers, was inevitable. Grief is an unmanageable emotion and the form it takes is unique to every man whose wife or partner has died. There are no set rules about coping with loss.Some people struggle with it for years and maybe never get over it. Others manage to move on.

本書以多巴哥島小鎮為舞台，描寫少年在日常與貧困中成長，外來家庭的出現帶來短暫的光亮，也掀開階級、金錢與責任的現實界線。Oonya Kempadoo以節制而詩性的文字，寫出欲望如何遮蔽差異，又如何讓不平等無所遁形。Cliff and Ossi have grown up in Plymouth on the island of Tobago, their lives turning on the axis of small-town life. One day they watch the arrival of a couple and their child at a luxurious house overlooking the ocean. The couple invites Cliff into their home and lives, and in that cool “flim-style” house, the harsh, brittle life of urban Plymouth is kept briefly at bay, desires obscuring differences in class and race. But then things begin to go wrong—money vanishes, the couple’s car disappears—and those differences are brought suddenly to light, raising unsettling questions about relationships, wealth, and responsibility.“Oonya Kempadoo’s Tide Running is effective, beautiful, and haunting . . . and pulses with a distinctive Caribbean rhythm.” —Glenville Lovell, Washington Post“With a finely tuned ear for the cadences of the Caribbean . . ..
