英語精選句型薈萃（簡體書）

本書原名為《英語句型精華》，于1997年在香港出版，得到行家的好評，深受讀者的歡迎。英語學習者紛紛來函要求擴容，增加篇幅。現根據大學英語/專業英語教材中出現的句型，增收了50個句型，加上原有的200個句型，現161組中共收句型250個。作者根據多年來的教學經驗和科研成果，針對中國人學習英語的特點，撰寫本書，其宗旨是為寫作和翻譯提供豐富多彩的表達方式并使英語學習者的漢語思維模式轉換成英語思維模式，即用英語思維并處理語言信息。期盼本書成為英語學習者必備的案頭參考書并具有收藏價值。為了滿足不同層次讀者的需要，我們先用電腦對各種句型作統計分析，然后進行篩選，再按復現率和難易程度，分為初階、中階和高階三種類型，前兩種稱為普及型，后一種定名為提高型。本書在內容選擇、編排方式和處理方法上與一般語法書或句型集不同，具有自己的特色。
