对于广大学生来说,英语学习的重要性已不言而喻,但市场上的英语阅读素材鱼龙混杂,真正原汁原味的适合中小学生阅读的精品英语素材还是很少。在信息大爆炸的时代,养成科学的阅读习惯和思维,迅速获得有效的信息,对以后的学习和研究有至关重要的作用。通过一定的方法阅读正宗的英语素材,从小就接触自然科学和社会科学的大量文本,从中学习、获得有效信息的阅读技巧,无论对学生的英语学习,还是对学生的信息获取能力的提高,都有很大的帮助。也就是说,学生阅读Reading for Information丛书,可以满足他们两方面的需求:
1. 通过原汁原味的英语文本阅读,有效地提高英语能力和水平;
2. 通过接触科学和社会科学的文本,学习有效的阅读技巧、获取大量课外知识。
內容簡介:
《阅读广角Level 4D地球科学与物质科学》是Reading for Information丛书的第4级第4册,这套书是原版引进的、原汁原味的英文读物。本册在介绍太阳系和物质变化的同时,还着重讲解、分析了标题(Heading)、副标题(Subheading)和表格(Table)的阅读技巧,将有效的方法与有趣的内容巧妙结合,二者相辅相成,相得益彰。该丛书共分为5个级别(Level),每个级别分为科学和社会科学两大板块,科学板块包括生命科学、地球科学、物理和健康,社会科学板块包括地理、历史和经济。第4级适合初三、高一的学生阅读和学习。
