《美英報(bào)刊文章閱讀(精選本)(第五版)》,與前四版一樣,是供大專院校英語(yǔ)和新聞專業(yè)及其他涉外專業(yè)高年級(jí)學(xué)生使用的教材,也可供具有相應(yīng)程度的從事新聞、外事等工作者及英語(yǔ)愛好者自修之用。讀者在學(xué)習(xí)了這套報(bào)刊文選后,借助《美英報(bào)刊導(dǎo)讀》和《當(dāng)代英漢美英報(bào)刊詞典》,可以先看美英報(bào)紙上文字較淺顯易懂的報(bào)道性文章和《美國(guó)新聞與世界報(bào)道》雜志,然后再看其他新聞刊物和評(píng)論性文章。這樣就能獨(dú)自走上一條讀懂報(bào)刊之路,這也是我們編寫此書的最終目的。
第五版對(duì)第四版的課文更新了70%,更換的課文均選自2010年至2013年美英大報(bào)和知名新聞期刊,如《紐約時(shí)報(bào)》、《洛杉磯時(shí)報(bào)》、《今日美國(guó)報(bào)》、《泰晤士報(bào)》、《星期日泰晤士報(bào)》、《金融時(shí)報(bào)》、《時(shí)代》周刊、《新聞周刊》、《美國(guó)新聞與世界報(bào)道》、《商業(yè)周刊》、《幸!(Fortune)雜志、《經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家》等。內(nèi)容既有社會(huì)、文化、政治等方面的新聞,也有世界大事的報(bào)道和評(píng)論。
1963年畢業(yè)于北京大學(xué)西方語(yǔ)言文學(xué)系,曾任北京大學(xué)英語(yǔ)系副教授、講授美英報(bào)刊文章選讀等課程。英語(yǔ)報(bào)刊教學(xué)研究會(huì)前任會(huì)長(zhǎng)。所編《美英報(bào)刊文章閱讀》多次印刷,深受師生的歡迎。
