精彩書摘

An immigrant is a person who comes to a new country to live. People often think of the United States as a nation of immigrants. This is because， with the exception of Native Ameri- cans， people from other countries and their descendants make up the entire U.S. population. There have been three distinct waves of immigration to the United States since the colonists founded the nation.
The earliest setders were the colonists. Unlike immigrants， who come to settle in a country that is already established， colonists come to a region to found a colony under the rule of their home country. Before the founding of the United States， colonists welcomed set- tlers， from England as well as from Germany， who came to tend and settle the land.
Once the colonists had founded the nation， the first wave of large-scale immigration oc- curred. Between 1820 and 1880， nearly 8 million immigrants chose to come to the country. Most of these were from Germany， England， and Ireland. They were at ease with British customs. They spoke English or a related language. Many were artisansand laborers who found work in the growing cities. On the West Coast， immigrants from China came to strike it rich in the Gold Rush and to work on the transcontinental railroad. Among those who made up the first wave were a large number of immigrants from Africa. These people were brought to the United States against their will and were sold to plantation owners to do forced labor.
During the second wave of immigration——from 1880 to 1920——more than 24 million immigrants arrived. Most were from Russia， Poland， and Italy. Many were of Jewish de- scent. They brought with them a range of languages， religions， and ideas about education and government. Prior fears that immigrants would change early American values grew more intense. Immigrants were willing to work for low wages. This inspired additional fears. Citi- zens feared that immigrants would take their jobs. Laws were passed to limit the number and kinds of immigrants to enter each year.
The third wave of immigration in the United States spoons （持續） the period from 1970 to the present. More than a million immigrants arrive each year from such regions as Latin America， the Caribbean， and Asia.

前言/序言

　　閱讀既是理解和吸收語言文化信息的重要手段之一，又是語言文化信息的最便捷的輸入源。我國教育部新製定的全日製義務教育和普通高級中學《英語課程標準》對學生的閱讀技能從三級到九級提齣瞭明確的要求。在目前國內外的各種英語測試中，閱讀理解所占的比重越來越大。為此，我們特嚮你推薦“中學英語拓展閱讀叢書”（Timed ReadingsPlus）。本叢書含有以下3個子係列：社會科學（Social．Studies）、自然科學（Science）及數學（Mathematics），由上海外語教育齣版社從美國McGraw Hill Glencoe公司引進齣版。社會科學和自然科學各有10個分冊，社會科學每冊有24課，自然科學每冊有25課，每課兩篇閱讀材料；數學有5個分冊，每冊有15課，每課兩篇閱讀材料。本叢書語言地道，知識麵廣，信息量大，能有效訓練學生的閱讀理解能力，提高他們的閱讀速度。每課的第一篇閱讀材料篇幅長400單詞左右，側重訓練學生的快速閱讀能力；閱讀理解題則主要檢查學生是否能在快速閱讀後掌握閱讀材料中的事實和材料所傳達的思想。每課中的第二篇閱讀材料較短，著重訓練學生的閱讀技巧，如：從上下文中猜測生詞的含義，找齣作者的觀點，得齣中心思想，排列事件順序，推斷作者的論點等。因此，我們認為它是一套訓練學生閱讀速度及閱讀理解能力並能同時開拓他們視野的拓展型叢書，適閤外國語學校初二及以上年級學生和非外國語學校高中學生課內、外使用。
　　怎樣使用本係列叢書呢？我們有以下的一些閱讀策略供大傢參考。
　　1．閱讀時，要集中注意力。
　　2．用一分鍾閱讀標題，並思考以下問題：我是否瞭解這一話題？我從這個話題中能學到什麼？這個話題引起瞭我怎樣的思考？
　　3．重點閱讀文章第一句和最後一句，因為第一句和最後一句往往是作者提齣自己觀點和總結全文觀點的關鍵句子。
　　4．快速閱讀全文以獲得材料所傳達給你的信息。如遇到含有姓名、日期或數字等的內容，你應該放慢速度，以便記住這些內容。
　　怎樣纔是一個快速閱讀者？
