前言

　　为了配合新课标教程的全面推行，我们组织了湖北省部分重点中学以及华中师大外语学院的部分教师编写了这套《中学英语阅读教程》（共计12册），旨——在为中学生提供一套与新课标教程相配合，难度相当，题材多样的泛读材料。希望读者能从这套阅读教程中充分感受东西方文化的差异以及英美国家人们的历史文化、科学技术、生活方式、情感心态等，从而开阔视野，得到启迪。　　诚如读者所知，没有广泛的阅读和涉猎课本之外的语言知识，只是拘泥于课本，是很难真正学一门外国语言的。　　因此，我们编写这套丛书的基本出发点，就是为中学生的英语阅读提供最合适的材料。这套教程完全可以作为新课标的阅读补充，为读者从课本的“精读”走向课外的“泛读”搭建一个必要的平台，从而使读者学习英语的兴趣得到培养，阅读能力得到提高，并充分体验阅读带来的愉悦。　　为了面向全体学生，做到“因材施教”、“开卷有益”，我们将丛书分为“拓展版”和“基础版”两种，从七年级到高三，循序渐进。“拓展版”是针对词汇量较大，语言基本功较厚实的同学；而“基础版”则是针对语言能力相对薄弱，阅读能力有待进一步提高的学生。因此，在编写过程中，阅读难度稍大、新词汇稍多的文章我们就选入了“拓展版”；而阅读较简易、生词量较少的则选入“基础版”。读者可根据自己的学习需求作选取。

章节摘录

　　Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for awoman. A man goes shopping because he needs something. He knows what hewants， and his purpose is to find it and buy it； the price is a less importantconsideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what theywant. If the shop has it， the salesman immediately produces it， and the businessof trying it on is done at once. All being well， the bargain can be and often iscompleted in less than five minutes， with hardly any chat and to everyone'ssatisfaction.　　For a man， slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what hewants.

Highest in her mind is the thought offinding something that everyone thinks suits her. Most women have an excellentsense of value when they buy clothes. They are always trying to find anunexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses， a woman may easily spendan hour going from one counter to another before selecting the dresses she wantsto try on. It takes a great deal of time but gives great joy.
