內容簡介

這套讀本的英文原版共分七級,包括啟蒙讀本和第1—6級。考慮到啟蒙讀本與第一級篇幅都較少,難易程度也很接近,于是將之合並為第1冊,其余2—6級與英文原版相同。這樣國內出版的這套讀本共包括6冊。

本書介紹了一些優美的文學作品,包括詩歌和《聖經》的節選。主要討論了拿破侖‧波拿巴、清教徒先祖、婦女、上帝、宗教信仰和哲學等話題。課後還附有一些思考練習,這些練習可以幫助學生更好地理解文章,引發孩子們的思考。本書更適合高年級學生閱讀。

本書是《第6冊》。


威廉‧H‧麥加菲,美國著名教育家。1800年出生于賓夕法尼亞州,1826年畢業于華盛頓大學杰斐遜學院。在數十年教育生涯中,他曾擔任過邁阿密大學語言學教授,俄亥俄大學校長。自1845年開始任弗吉尼亞大學道德哲學教授。他還幫助組建了俄亥俄州公立學校體系。

早在19世紀初期,麥加菲就意識到,應該給那些孤獨的墾荒者和歐洲移民的後代提供普遍的教育,于是他利用自己作為演講家與教育工作者的天賦,開始為孩子們編寫系列教材。這套教材共7冊,從學齡前至第6年級。他前後花費了20多年的時間才完成全套教材的編寫。這套教材面世後就被美國很多學校選為課本。在75年間銷量高達1.22億,直到今天仍以各種版本流行于西方,被美國《出版周刊》評為“人類出版史上第三大暢銷書”,對美國青年的心靈塑造與道德培養產生了史無前例的影響。
