前言
隨著改革開放的日趨深入,社會(huì)各界對(duì)外語人才的需求持續(xù)增長(zhǎng),我國(guó)英語專業(yè)的招生規(guī)模逐年擴(kuò)大,教學(xué)質(zhì)量不斷提高。英語專業(yè)本科生教育的改革、學(xué)科建設(shè)及教材的出版亦取得了巨大的成績(jī),先后出版了一系列在全國(guó)有影響的精品教材。2工世紀(jì)的到來對(duì)英語人才的培養(yǎng)提出了更高的標(biāo)準(zhǔn),同時(shí)也為學(xué)科建設(shè)和教材編寫提出了新的要求。隨著中國(guó)加入世界貿(mào)易組織,社會(huì)需要的不是僅僅懂英語的畢業(yè)生,而是思維科學(xué)、心理健康、知識(shí)面廣博、綜合能力強(qiáng),并能熟練運(yùn)用英語的高素質(zhì)的專門人才。由于中學(xué)新的課程標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的頒布,中學(xué)生英語水平逐年提升,英語專業(yè)本科生入學(xué)時(shí)的基礎(chǔ)和綜合素質(zhì)也相應(yīng)提高。此外,大學(xué)英語(公外)教育的迅猛發(fā)展,學(xué)生英語能力的提高,也為英語專業(yè)學(xué)生的培養(yǎng)提出了嚴(yán)峻的挑戰(zhàn)和更新更高的要求。這就規(guī)定了2工世紀(jì)的英語教學(xué)不是單純的英語培訓(xùn),而是英語教育,是以英語為主體,全面培養(yǎng)高素質(zhì)的復(fù)合型人才。教材的編寫和出版也應(yīng)順隨這種潮流?! 榱擞訒r(shí)代的挑戰(zhàn),作為我國(guó)最大的外語教材和圖書出版基地之一的上海外語教育出版社(外教社)理應(yīng)成為外語教材出版的領(lǐng)頭羊。在充分調(diào)研的基礎(chǔ)上,外教社及時(shí)抓住機(jī)遇,于新世紀(jì)之初約請(qǐng)了全國(guó)25所主要外語院校和教育部重點(diǎn)綜合大學(xué)英語院系的50多位英語教育家,在上海召開了“全國(guó)高等院校英語專業(yè)本科生系列教材編寫委員會(huì)會(huì)議”。代表們一致認(rèn)同了編寫面向新世紀(jì)教材的必要性、可行性和緊迫性,并對(duì)編寫思想、教材構(gòu)建、編寫程序等提出了建議和要求。而后,外教社又多次召開全國(guó)和上海地區(qū)的專家、學(xué)者會(huì)議,撰寫編寫大綱、確定教材類別、選定教材項(xiàng)目、討論審核樣稿。經(jīng)過一年多的努力,終于迎來了第一批書稿?! ∵@套系列教材共分語言知識(shí)和語言技能、語言學(xué)與文學(xué)、語言與文化、人文科學(xué)、測(cè)試與教學(xué)法等幾個(gè)板塊,總數(shù)將超過工50余種,可以說幾乎涵蓋了當(dāng)前我國(guó)高校英語專業(yè)所開設(shè)的全部課程。編寫內(nèi)容深入淺出,反映了各個(gè)學(xué)科領(lǐng)域的最新研究成果;編寫體例采用國(guó)家最新有關(guān)標(biāo)準(zhǔn),力求科學(xué)、嚴(yán)謹(jǐn),滿足各門課程的具體要求;編寫思想上,除了幫助學(xué)生打下扎實(shí)的語言基本功外,還著力培養(yǎng)學(xué)生分析問題、解決問題的能力,提高學(xué)生的人文、科學(xué)素養(yǎng),培養(yǎng)健康向上的人生觀,使學(xué)生真正成為我國(guó)2工世紀(jì)所需要的外語專門人才。
內(nèi)容概要
《泛讀教程》的特征體現(xiàn)在“泛”與“讀”兩個(gè)方面。就“泛”而言,教材選用語言素材題材廣泛,內(nèi)容呈百科知識(shí)性,涉及英語國(guó)家的社會(huì)、政治、經(jīng)濟(jì)、文化、文學(xué)、歷史、宗教、體育、醫(yī)藥、環(huán)保、風(fēng)土人情、科普知識(shí)等各個(gè)領(lǐng)域。同時(shí),語言素材的文體呈多樣性,既有文學(xué)作品,又有記敘、說明、議論、新聞、廣告等語言風(fēng)格不同的各類文章。就“讀”而言,《泛讀教程》提供全面系統(tǒng)的閱讀訓(xùn)練,指導(dǎo)學(xué)生掌握細(xì)讀、略讀、尋讀等方法,學(xué)會(huì)快速、準(zhǔn)確地獲取并處理信息,并通過各種練習(xí),培養(yǎng)假設(shè)判斷、分析歸納、推理檢驗(yàn)等邏輯思維能力。學(xué)生學(xué)了這套教材,可以提高英語的閱讀理解能力和閱讀速度,增強(qiáng)英語語感,擴(kuò)大詞匯量,增加英語國(guó)家文化背景知識(shí)。

章節(jié)摘錄
One of the most interesting amres of American cooking iS its variety.The traveler who crosses the U.S.by bus or by car will find the food as worthy of attention as the scenery-and full of unexpected surprises,too.For American cooking at its best is regional in character. Except for turkey at Thanksgiving,no single dish has gmned wide enough popularity in oc U.s. to become a symbol for the country as a whole.Each region sets its table with a different specialty. These regional specialties capture the flavor and aroma and express the charactef of a particular place. For instance,New Orleans is known for its jambalaya,a spicy dish of rice,ham,shrimp,and tomatoes。 And Boston,where the winters are long and cold,is called“bean town”because of its baked beans.a mixture of dried beans,salt pork,brown sugar,and molasses.Mixed in an iron pot and baked for hours in a slow oven,this dish iS hearty and nutritious。Americans say.“It sticks to your ribs.” Being regional,these dishes are made from the vegetables,fruits,meats,poultry,and seafood that are locally available.And since local conditions vary a great deal in the U.S as might be ex. pected in the worldS fourth largest country,the result is a national food menu on which most of the world’S favorite foods are listed. Seafood of all kinds can be found in the states that border the oceans or possess lake and fiver systems。Shrimp,crab,and lobster,as well as fresh fish.are all mealtime favorites.Citrus fruit-oranges,frapefruit,lemons,and times-are produced in P10rida arid California.The fruit groves in these States supply most of the frozen juice and sun-ripened fruit that decorate the.breakfast tables of the nation.Acmss the landlocked states in the Midwest stretch endiess corn and wheat fields..nlcSc grams are used to make bread,cereal,and cooking oiL.ne region is called“the breadbasket of the nation.”For vegetables,California iS America’s most productive state。It is first in the production of broccoli,asparagus,tomats,carrots, grapes,lettuce’peaches,and pears.
