内容概要

　　《大学金砖英语数字化系列教材：大学金砖英语读写教程1（通用）》用于大学英语教学的通识教育阶段。这个阶段的教材内容以通识为主，也就是对学生进行基本的语篇分析能力的培养来达到提高他们英语阅读和写作水平的目的。如果在此阶段大学生能够接受规范的英语语篇分析和正确的写作训练，必将对后续的英语学习打下坚实的基础。《大学金砖英语数字化系列教材：大学金砖英语读写教程1（通用）》共选编有9个单元的教学内容，可供一学期使用，每个单元由内容相关的、难度由浅入深的三篇课文展开。
　　《大学金砖英语数字化系列教材：大学金砖英语读写教程1（通用）》在编写过程中，首先从培养与提高大学生的语篇语境认知能力入手提出相关问题，然后引导他们认识对语篇衔接和连贯起重要作用的语篇线索标记语，进而对语篇中体现文章主题的重要实词和短语进行注解和示例，从而至上而下地完成语篇分析教学的全过程。教材的另一个特色是课后阅读和翻译练习的编写不仅紧扣课文展开，而且结合所学的课文，按照课文的写作特点、文体来安排写作的各个环节，教会学生写什么、如何来写和涉及什么语法等问题，通过这种“词语”—“段落”—“语篇”的语篇结构分析法来完成整体写作训练。

章节摘录

　　Scan the text for specific information.　　1＿Life's great constant is change. As humans we control our own beginnings and ends and the paths we travel between the two， to begin and end and begin again is a simple phrase that describes the way many of us go through our lives.　　2 ＿Human evolution] is the process of growing older by moving forward that lasts for the entirety of our lives. We are constantly finishing the scribing of one chapter of our lives and moving on to writing new ones. Like an ocean sea， change appears in waves and allows us to move from one period to the next while we grow and mature.　　3＿A monumental change that happens for many of us in our young adult lives is when we commence from senior high school and move on to college or university. The transition to university can be the first real change that we as people experience without the emotional support of our close friends and family. If we choose to move away from our hometowns， which many of us do， the vast distance between the life we had and the life we will build forces us to shoulder burdens and deal with challenges that some students handle better than others.　　4＿This change can be difficult for many students who leave the safety of their families and long time classmates for the first time. Lifelong friendships are strained by the reality of being far apart. Situational comforts such as familiar food our mother may have cooked， or soothing memories of our favorite　　quiet places， or time we spent learning from our father may become memories that fade away as geographic distance increases. The things that were familiar and easy are suddenly new and different again. Friends we once relied on for moral and emotional support have to be replaced with new friendships whose bonds can be bound in closer proximity to our new station. For some students， this can be an exciting time and one that teaches them about their own character. For other students，this time can be lonely and hard to adjust to.　　……
