Hello, I don't know what the landlord means by basic English. Our school uses Intensive Reading of Contemporary College English, edited by Yang Limin and published by Foreign Language Teaching and Research Press, with six volumes. But in fact, we only went to four volumes, but we didn't. Tutorial books, some people use Spark, and I buy old books full of notes and answers directly. I also buy counseling books published by FLTRP. This set of reference books includes books for students and books for teachers. It is recommended to use the teacher's book, all in English. Intensive reading textbooks are well written and the texts are very rich. An article should pay attention to n points, and the counseling books are very detailed. But the teacher pays more attention to analyzing the content, rather than talking about syntax, grammar and morphology, because the teacher emphasizes that these are all done by himself after class. Intensive reading in Beijing Foreign Studies University emphasizes outline and interpretation, as well as translation training. There are a considerable number of exercises after each lesson in the textbook, how to use them specifically. . Anyway, I read the text first, then look up the words, listen to the class, then do exercises, check the answers, listen, read, practice and review, and then the teacher will let us do a quiz. . As for reference books, the contents of books used by students first have background and author's introduction; Then there are key and difficult sentence patterns to explain the text; Then practice the answers after class (only the answers are not explained); Then the Chinese translation of the text. The teacher's book introduces the background, explains the key points and difficulties in English, and practices the answers after class. FLTRP's series of red, green, blue and purple textbooks are used for listening, and only that set is used for oral English in the first semester. The teacher will arrange to use other books at the same time. . . . Welcome to ask questions to 158 Education Online.
