本教程旨在通过教师课上指导、学生课下自主学习的方式拓宽学生视野、培养他们的终生学习能力。全教程由基础篇、进阶篇、提高篇、高阶篇和精阶篇五册组成，每册十个单元。每单元设计一个主题的形式，单元中各模块的设计符合学生的阅读规律，如阅读知识面拓展、技巧训练、能力培养、实战演练和兴趣开发。练习题型的设计主要是帮助学生阅读过程中猜测生词词义、预测文章内容，运用“相互关联”(Interactive)阅读模式，将“用法”(Usage)与“运用”(Use)有机地结合。同时，为适应CET 4／6考试要求，增加了快速阅读和细读(In-depth reading)真题训练，达到“学”以致“用”的目的。

本教程适用于本、专科学生，也可作为英语学习爱好者的案头读物。
