內(nèi)容概要

閱讀是一種獵取，通過(guò)閱讀，人們可獵取到不可或缺的精神食糧。有了它，人才會(huì)健康成長(zhǎng)；閱讀是一種咀嚼，通過(guò)閱讀，人們可咀嚼隱匿于文字中的苦辣酸甜。有了它，人才能學(xué)會(huì)堅(jiān)強(qiáng)；閱讀是一種傾聽(tīng)，通過(guò)閱讀，人們可傾聽(tīng)到亙古至今的不同聲音。有了它，人才不會(huì)迷失方向；閱讀是一種欣賞，通過(guò)閱讀，人們可欣賞到前所未見(jiàn)的旖旎風(fēng)光。有了它，人的生活才會(huì)充滿(mǎn)陽(yáng)光……    英語(yǔ)閱讀除具有上述功效外，還有其獨(dú)特的一面，那就是強(qiáng)化語(yǔ)言基礎(chǔ)、提升英語(yǔ)水平。然而，在浩若煙海的英語(yǔ)閱讀材料中，有哪些適合你或是你的首選呢?恐怕不同的人依據(jù)不同的需求會(huì)有不同的回答。不過(guò)，有一點(diǎn)是共同的，即每位讀者都會(huì)選擇自認(rèn)為好的英語(yǔ)閱讀材料。

章節(jié)摘錄

　　The making of a writerSociety and theatricalsIn his Memoir of Jane Austen, Edward Austen-Leigh planted the tradition, subscribed to bymost twentieth-century critics and biographers,that Austen the novelist, was substantially cre-ated at home. Thanks to tuition by her fatherand brothers, Jane was exposed as a child tothe eighteenth-century essayists Joseph Addison,Richard Steele, and Samuel Johnson and to thenovelists Samuel Richardson and Fanny Burney.It is probably true that the clarity, sharpness,and wit of the prose of Austens juvenilia indi-cate attentive reading in the centurys stylists, agood ear for the balance of a sentence, and soundregard for verbal economy. Her seniors did right by her on these counts, but they cannot have done everything. Austens immersion in contem- porary popular fiction began at school and was equally fundamental. At the Abbey House School she amused herself as her socially mixed class mates did in following the adventures and trials of modern woman, as these were purveyed most readily and cheaply in a handful of specialist mag azines, such as George Robinsons monthly miscellany, the Ladys Magazine (established 177o). In his first issue Robinson boasted that he catered for the widest possible range of taste, status, and income, from a duchess to a newly literate housemaid. In each issue from a quarter to a third of the space was likely to be occupied by fiction, much of it sent in by readers, who might set theirnarratives in stylized exotic worlds or in common domestic life among the middling sort. But the standard plotline for most longer fiction, whether published in multi-volume book form or serial ized in a magazine, was the courtship~~ of lovers of unequal rank and means, involving the woman particularly in picaresque adventures and trials, with a happy ending always in jeopardy from.
