《柳林风声(附光盘适合小学高年级初1年级)/津津有味读经典》编著者肯尼思·格雷厄姆。

肯尼思·格雷厄姆(1859．1932)是英国的银行家．他于1908年创作了《柳林风声》。《柳林风声》源于格雷厄姆给他的独生子阿拉斯泰尔讲述的动物故事，阿拉斯泰尔非常喜欢，于是父亲答应在他去夏令营的时候写信给他继续讲这个故事。这本书的创作源泉是作者的童年记忆。格雷厄姆的母亲在他小的时候就去世了，他和外祖母生活在一起。外祖母家有一座很大的宅院，他在这座大宅院以及乡野河畔问度过了童年时光。他小时候流连的田野风光，后来成为《柳林风声》中鼹鼠、河鼠、獾与癞蛤蟆先生结伴畅游的世界。

"No, no, no. You must all come home with me andhave lunch at Toad Hall. My lunches are famous."

"I have to go now," Badger said. "I have thingsto do."

He walked slowly away, shaking his head.

"Famous lunches!" he said under his breath. "Whata bunch of nonsense."

"Isn't Mr. Badger feeling well?" Rat said.

"Oh, he's like that sometimes. Pass the sandwiches,will you?" Toad said, forgetting that he'd invited Moleand Rat to have lunch at Toad Hall.

The friends ate their picnic.

Then Toad said, "Why don't you both come andstay with me at Toad Hall? There are a lot of rooms.We could have a lot of fun."

"We'll visit you one afternoon," Rat said.

"No, no. Come today." Toad said. "You'd like todo that, wouldn't you, Mole?"

"Oh, yes," Mole said. "Thank you very much."

"Mole is staying with me, Toad," Rat said. "I'mgoing to teach him all about the river. Aren't I, Mole?"

"What? Oh, yes. Yes, of course," Mole said. "ButI'd like to see Toad Hall."

"And so you shall," Toad said, taking the lastsandwich. Then he asked Rat, "Have you seen anyWild Wooders recently?"

"Who are the Wild Wooders?" Mole asked.

"Animals who live in the Wild Wood," Toad said."The rabbits are all right, but as for the others.., youdon't want to have anything to do with them."

Rat said, "The weasels are the worst. You can'ttrust them. I never go into the Wild Wood."

"And I never, ever invite them to Toad Hall," Toadsaid, finishing the last sandwich.

He looked at the empty picnic basket.

"Is there anything else to eat?" he asked.

"No, Toad," Rat said. "You've eaten everything."

"Then I'll be off to Toad Hall and one of my famouslunches."

As Toad said this, Alfred the horse arrived, pullinga brightly painted caravan.

"Ah, here's my beautiful caravan," Toad said. "Forgetboats and the river, Mole. Travel the world in a caravan.Come inside. I have everything anyone could need."

"It is rather beautiful," Mole said.

"Come on my travels with me," Toad said. "We'llhave such fun."

"What do you think, Rat?" Mole asked.

Rat thought for a moment. Then he said, "We'dbetter go with him. We can't trust him, since he isfoolish sometimes."

"Nonsense," said Toad. "I'm a famous traveler.Jump on and we'll be off."

Toad, Rat, and Mole jumped into a seat at the frontof the caravan.  "Off you go, Alfred," Toad called to the horse.

Alfred shook his head sadly, just like Badger. "There'llbe problems," he said. "Whatever Toad does, there arealways problems."

But he put his head down and began to pull. Slowly,the caravan moved away from the river bank.P6-P7

读书最美妙的境界是读得津津有味。

我想，对于中小学生，英语阅读要读出三味才算是津津有味。

津津第一味，是读出好成绩。国家《义务教育英语课程标准》(2011年版)和国家《普通高中英语课程标准》(实验)都规定了中小学生的英语阅读量，要求学生每年课外阅读一定量的英文读物。用课外的阅读提高自己的英语成绩。肯定是我们进行课外阅读的一个基本愿望。如何实现呢?这需要有相应的配套活动指导，因为这些活动可以把我们在阅读中获得的语感转化为我们考试中可以表现出来的语言运用能力。

津津第二味，是读出宽视野。我们通过阅读认知我们无法靠自己生活的直接经验认知的世界，我们可以通过阅读穿越到任何时代，与大师为伍，与英雄比肩，入宫廷痛斥国王，到小村体恤贫民。我们不仅可以因此而晓知天下，更可因此与人广泛交流。

津津第三味，是读出高素养。阅读是学习。学习知识，更学习做人的道理、做事的方法，分折的恩路、明辨的条理、批评的路径、建构的框架。阅读是体验，体验如何淡泊明志、如何激扬文字，如此等等。丰富藐们的人生理解，提高我们的综合素养。

你肯定会问，如此三味，需要太多课外时间，我本无多少课外时间，是否可以聚合一体?

当然可以。

《津津有味，读经典》就是一套可以让你读出津津三味的读物。这套读物不仅符合国家《义务教育英语课程标准》(2011~)和国家《普通高中英语课程标准》 (实验)的要求，更是汇集了西方文学经典，更为难得的是，英语语言优美而又符合我国学生语言水平，同时附有表演短剧剧本、纯正地道MP3和自主评价手册。

如此，你可以开卷“悦读”了吧？

期待你读出津津三味？
