王娟、郐红芳、王汉平主编的《中外合作办学雅思阅读教程》以阅读主题为主线，实现了“文章题材与阅读方法”“题型特点与技巧分析”“课内讲解与课外练习”等的三大有机结合，最大限度地向考生展示了雅思阅读的命题规律、解题流程、做题思路，并配以适量的模拟训练，以期真正帮助考生提高雅思阅读能力。
在对雅思阅读题型进行细致分析的基础上，本书把这些文章按主题分成9个单元，每一单元包括三个部分。Part One Warming up主要是针对与该单元主题相关的词汇进行预热式练习；Part Two Reading-Centered Activities是单元的主体部分，涉及雅思重点题型的介绍与分析，并就不同题型，根据不同话题，精选相应的文章进行有针对性的阅读训练，同时给出做题建议及注意事项。文章后附有单词讲解，以便使用者学以致用，高效扩大词汇量。Part Three Strategies主要是对本章出现的雅思阅读题型的答题方法的一个反馈和总结。第10单元是模拟训练，旨在考查学生的综合阅读能力。
