1. Introduction
As is known to all, reading is considered as the most essential skill, when compared with listening, speaking, and writing. Through extensive and intensive reading, students not only grasp linguistic knowledge and obtain information, but also lay a solid foundation for the other three skills.
At present, English Curriculum Standards demand that students should be able to identify the characteristics of different literary forms, able to understand the reading materials in the different views and attitudes, able to understand difficult and long sentences through analysis of sentence structures, able to appreciate literature in plain English with the help of teachers, and reach more than 30 million words of the amount of extensive reading. According to the requirements for students, the fundamental purpose of reading teaching is to train students to read more efficiently and to develop students’ appropriate reading habits and arouse their strong interests in English.
