Applying efficient learning methods and reflecting interesting material in the text

This textbook is structured so that two passages become one study, and an efficient learning system is applied that presents an appropriate amount of material for students to study at one time according to the achievement criteria.
Each STUDY reflects the 2015 revised curriculum reading area divisions, such as 'Humanities + Arts → Society + Culture → Science + Technology → Humanities + Arts...', and studies two related texts in one STUDY. However, each area is structured in a circular and repetitive manner to ensure learning without getting bored.
Additionally, we have carefully selected and presented in the form of texts interesting for students to read in each area.

Reflecting the 2015 Revised Curriculum Reading Achievement Standards

The STUDY names corresponding to the learning objectives for the two passages in this textbook are organized step by step based on the achievement standards for reading in the 2015 revised curriculum.
For each fingerprint, we have provided 'problems related to the STUDY name' so that you can learn the achievement standard content naturally.
And after studying the two fingerprints, we presented a 'Reading Method Q&A' to help you understand the key concepts related to the STUDY name in the form of questions and answers.
Additionally, after the core concepts are presented, the contents are organized in a separate page called the 'Concept Directory' so that you can review them at a glance.

Reinforce vocabulary learning

This textbook presents a variety of 'Vocabulary Check' questions to help you check your understanding of the key vocabulary presented in the two STUDY passages.
And, although not presented in the text, we have included a 'Vocabulary Special Lecture' to help you improve your vocabulary by learning various vocabulary such as homonyms and polysemy, synonyms and antonyms, and common misspellings that are frequently tested on the exam.
In addition, the problem explanations include a 'vocabulary recharge' that includes the pronunciation and meaning of Chinese characters so that you can learn difficult vocabulary and concept vocabulary that frequently appear on exams that appear in the problems, helping you learn a wide range of vocabulary.

Improving Reading Comprehension Skills through Self-Directed Learning

In the main text of this textbook, a checklist is provided in the 'Learning Checklist' after each of the two passages to enable self-directed learning.
In the 'Fingerprint Structure & Answers & Explanation' section, the text is presented once again and organized in a written format to help students understand the structure of the text and efficiently learn the key contents of the text.
Additionally, in 'Answers and Explanations', we have provided detailed explanations of correct answers and explanations for incorrect answers so that you can thoroughly understand the correct and incorrect answers to the questions.
