新編大學基礎英語快速閱讀

前言

　　在英語教學中，我們一直強調(diào)聽、說、讀、寫四種能力并重。根據(jù)我國的國情，我們認為閱讀能力是英語水平的主要標志。在學習英語過程中，要提高閱讀能力應該注重三種閱讀方法：精讀、泛讀和快速閱讀。本套教材就是要幫助高職高專等大學基礎階段的學生強化英語快速閱讀的能力?！　≡谀刚Z環(huán)境中，我們進行閱讀出于多種原因，其中興趣是很重要的一個原因。然而，在以學習為目的的外語閱讀中，閱讀往往是一種能力的培養(yǎng)。我國的英語學習者在閱讀中，比較偏重于詞匯和語法，久而久之會養(yǎng)成逐詞逐句地死摳詞義和句子結(jié)構(gòu)的壞習慣。有些學生簡直是在破譯“密電碼”，結(jié)果對閱讀的興趣蕩然無存。因此，我們以為，學生在閱讀過程中應該注重閱讀內(nèi)容，并且養(yǎng)成快速閱讀的能力。根據(jù)語言學家和外語教學者的研究，在保證理解閱讀材料70％的情況下，閱讀速度越快越好。為此，我們編寫了本套教材，旨在幫助英語學習者強化閱讀興趣，提高閱讀速度和能力。　　本書是根據(jù)教育部高職高專英語類專業(yè)教學指導委員會2009年最新頒布的《高等職業(yè)教育英語課程教學要求》編寫的。本書具備以下特點：　　1.選材廣泛、內(nèi)容豐富，注重科學性、知識性、趣味性。題材靈活多樣，情節(jié)生動?！　?.所選材料語言地道，難度深淺適中。目的是幫助學生盡早、盡快接觸到原汁原味的語言，有利于激發(fā)學生學習英語的興趣，幫助他們養(yǎng)成自覺閱讀的習慣和能力。

內(nèi)容概要

本教材嚴格按照《高職高專英語教學基本要求》(修訂稿)，選編了15個單元的文章共45篇，題材豐富，體裁多樣，供高職高專以及大學基礎階段的學生訓練快速閱讀使用。     本教材在某種程度上能夠適應學生們的需求，既能促進他們的閱讀習慣和能力，又能開闊他們的視野；對于使用此教材的教師而言，為他們提供了更大的教學空間，書中所選的文章是課本教學的補充和延伸，可以供課堂教學選用，也可作為課外閱讀之用。
