弗朗西斯·培根曾在他那著名的《论读书》一文中指出：读书使人充实（reading makes a full man），中国也有二句古谚：一为：“书读百遍，其义自现”。二为：“熟读唐诗三百首，不会作诗也会吟。”培根强调的是“读书”（阅读）与人生，而后二者强调的是“阅读”与“理解”、与“写作”（创作）的关系。不论怎样三者都突出强调了“读书”（阅读）的功用。“读书”就其本质而论就是“阅读”，而“阅读”又可分为“精读”（intensive reading）、“泛读”（extensive reading）、“跳读”（skipping）、“扫读”（scanning）和“快速阅读”（fast reading）以及“朗读”（reciting），也就是培根先生所说的some books are to be tasted，Others to be swallowed，and some few to be chewed and digested。 学习一门外语，既需要“精读”也需要“泛读”，在某种意义上讲，“泛读”的多少决定了外语学习的成败高低。顾名思义，“泛读”就是泛泛而读，它的目标是通过大量的阅读，拓宽视野，扩大知识面，增加词汇量，从而增强语感——而语感是学习外语最最重要的一个因素。
本套教程取名为新概念，主要反映在以下几个编写特点： 阅读材料丰富多样，题材广泛，体裁多样，内容新颖，注重知识性、趣味性与实用性； 突破传统教材课文篇幅太短的局限，阅读量明显加大； 注重培养学生快速、准确、有效地获取信息的能力； 增加了有关中国传统节假日方面知识的阅读与摄取，以增强学生跨文化交际的能力； 为增强实用性，本教程有目的地收录了一些实用类体裁的阅读材料：如广告、信函、合同、协议、招标书以及招聘启事等，以便学生通过阅读和初步接触能了解此类文章的格式及其用词。 《新概念大学英语泛读教程》一套四册。每册有15个单元，每个单元由三部分组成：阅读课文和练习、快速阅读和练习、课外阅读和练习。此外，为方便阅读，我们在阅读课文和课外阅读后面增加了部分必需的注释。每册书后都配有练习参考答案，以便利教师和学生的教与学。

In the early days of the Internet， each new page was a cause for celebration. The early pioneers watched in excitement as the network grew， and they wanted to keep people informed about this growth. Now， home pages are so yesterday. You were cool 10 years ago if you had a home page. Today blogs are where its at. Meg Hourihan was in a bad mood. She had nothing major to worry about， but she was afflicted by the triple malaise of a woman in her late twenties. （a） the weather was Iousy； （b） she was working too hard； and （c） she didnt have a boyfriend. Nothing， not even eating， seemed very interesting to her. The only thing that did sound appealing was moving to France and finding a new French boyfriend， but even when she talked about that idea she struck a sardonic， yeah-right-like-Im-really-going-to-do-that kind of tone. I know this about Meg because I read it a few months ago on her personal website， which is called Megnut. com. rve been reading Meg for a while now， and so I know all kinds of things about its author， like how much she loved Hilary Swank in Boys Dont Cry， and how she wishes there were good fish tacos to be had in San Francisco， where she lives. I know shes a feminist， and that she writes short stories， and that shes close to her mom.
