阅读是英语学习极为重要的语言技能，也是学习者获取信息、提升文化意识、培养思维品质的主要途径。教育部2022年颁布的《义务教育英语课程标准》对七至九年级学生的英语语言能力进行了分级，对学生如何运用书面语篇提升理解性技能提出了具体要求。据此，我们对本套书进行了修订。全套书共分5册，供七至九年级使用。它的基本特点如下：

1.单元设置、主题和话题及难易程度与教材同步，便于学生巩固课本知识，并做适当拓展。2.语言材料的真实性和时效性强；语篇类型丰富，包含了大量与文本内容匹配的多模态语篇，如插图、图表等。3.将流利性阅读（fuent reading）与策略性阅读（strategic reading）相结合，在注重流利性培养的同时，寓阅读策略于阅读活动之中，注重阅读技能与说、写等其他技能训练的结合。本书每一单元分为以下5个部分：

“热身活动”（Appetizers）：

通过直观的图片，使学生能将图片信息与自身背景知识结合起来以更有效地构建意义，为后继阅读做铺垫。同时，培养他们使用词典的习惯。●“语言知识”（Soups)：复习每一单元的主要生词、短语、语法点和句型，需要学生在完成重新识别、操练运用的同时，为进入“阅读训练”做好准备。“阅读训练”（MainCourses）：每个单元的主体部分，又分为“Read&Act”“Read&Think”和“Read&Write”3个小部分。

“Read&Act”部分

注重阅读和口语训练的结合，通过表演等形式，为不同学习风格的学生提供多种理解和运用语言的途径。

“Read&Think”部分的阅读活动设计旨在体现从理解、应用、分析、评价到创新等思维能力的培养，并融入了阅读策略的指导，帮助学生学会阅读。

“Read&Write”部分注重读写训练的结合，学生通过有引导的、有控制的多种书面输出活动，进一步深入理解语篇意义、运用语言。

●“学学做做”（Desserts）：包含Read& Play 部分。该部分的设计基于英语学习活动观，旨在通过微型任务或项目达成语言的迁移创新；小组活动形式也能够培养学生的合作能力。

●“欣赏提高”（Drinks)：旨在引导学生阅读和欣赏一些英语成语、小诗和英语影片台词等，增加文化知识输入、提升文化意识。英汉语言文化的对比旨在增进对中华传统文化的了解、培养跨文化意识。
