你的气质里藏着你读过的书,想要与众不同,自然少不了高质量的阅读。而外文书除了对学英文学习颇有助益外,还能open your mind.

但当你准备好了英英词典,剁手了kindle,甚至找到了最有读书气氛的湖畔岩石,却发现:

目测一页至少20个单词不认识;
一个句子占了三四行,主语宾语傻傻分不清楚;
总之各种读不下去……

这就是你日益增长的读书需求和词汇量及语法知识供应不足之间的矛盾。为了解决这个矛盾,ç在建立了读书信心和基本技能后,就可以循序渐进读其他的英文资料了。

现在就来看看老外的推荐理由吧:

1.Charlotte’s Web – E.B. White
This is a lovely novel that all age groups can understand. Aimed at native English speaking children, there are many adults who still say this famous book is their favorite. This is part of the national curriculum in many schools around the world, so it’s quite possible this book will also come up in conversation. You can almost guarantee that the majority of native English speakers have read this book at least once.

这是一本童话故事书,却同样吸引了很多成年人阅读。很多英语国家都把这本书作为学生的必读书目。

2.Mieko and the Fifth Treasure – Eleanor Coerr
This book is not really so famous, but it is on the recommended book list. What’s great about “Mieko and the Fifth Treasure” is that it’s short. At only 77 pages long, this will be an easy read. Again this book is aimed at young native English speakers, so if you’re learning English, the level won’t be so difficult. This book will keep you interested as you’ll learn many interesting things about Japan and its culture.

这本以讲述日本文化的书籍很短,只有77页,但会让你学到很多有趣的知识。“Mieko and the Fifth Treasure”的目标读者是年龄偏小的native English speaker,用词和句式都比较简单,很适合英语学习者进行泛读。

3.The Outsiders – S.E. Hinton
This short novel is perfect for EFL learners. It has modern themes and typical teenage issues that people around the world have experienced. There are very few cultural notes in this, which means you don’t need much background information. The sentences are short and easy to understand. The vocabulary is also very easy. You should be able to read this book without difficulty.

这本书的内容以青少年为主,贴近生活,没有陌生的文化信息,十分适合英语学习者学习。

4.  The House On Mango Street – Sandra Cisneros
The great thing about “The House On Mango Street” is that it’s an interesting read. It’s written from the point of view of the writer. You can really feel what the protagonist (the main character) feels. The sentences are really short so it’s also easy to understand. There are a few challenging words and a little bit of descriptive language, but you can usually understand them with the context. Another great thing about this is book is that it gives you a deep understanding of a different culture.

这本书的中文翻译是“芒果街上的小屋”,几乎是家喻户晓。里面的英文大都是短句,偶尔一两句难句也可以通过上下文进行理解。

5.Thirteen Reasons Why – Jay Asher
This story takes place in the present, which means the writer writes using simple grammar. All sentences are short and the vocabulary is relatively easy. The interesting grammar and short paragraphs make this a quick and easy book for ESL learners. This is an award-winning book and on the NY Times best books list, so it’s worth a read. This book deals with some heavy issues. If you’re looking for something light and happy to read over the summer vacation, you should not read this book.

“Thirteen Reasons Why”简单的语法,短小的段落,都很适合在地铁上或者其他零碎时间阅读。书中的内容略有沉重,却更值得成年人思考。全文都是16岁少女汉娜自杀前所录制的录音带内容,再穿插一位同学听过之后的反应。汉娜每次用一卷录音带叙述她和某位同学的过节,指控他们该为她的自杀负责。

这些书籍对有四六级基础的大学生来说基本无压力,你完全可以在课堂间隙或等公交的时间里读上一段,快来试试手捧英文书一目十行的感觉吧。
