《读写教程》强调社会语境在微观教学活动中的适用性，重在从语言修辞角度剖析英语的阅读与写作技能，多层次、多角度地编排语言素材，有机地穿插在传授知识的环节中，旨在帮助学生理解和领悟言语中蕴含的文化意义。《读写教程》所采用的阅读例文既有历史的视角，也有现实的视角，既有普通人的个人自述，又有学者的宏大论述，涉及的内容从历史、文化、地理，到生态、人生等，同大学生世界观和人生观的形塑息息相关。
《读写教程》有别于以往英语写作教材的一大特点是亮化且量化了阅读在社会语境与写作之间所扮演的桥梁角色。通过阅读环节，学生不仅可以积累词汇、拓宽视野、提高思维能力等，更是在接受“润物细无声”的写作文化熏陶，通过作者／读者之间的潜在对话方式，通过作者—读者—写作者之间的角色转换，帮助写作者不断更新现有的认知体系，从而最终完成新文本的建构。
