Principles of reading material selection
As we all know, for learners with low reading level, too difficult materials will hinder their reading. Similarly, too simple materials will lose their appeal to learners, so for different learners, we must be sure of the difficulty of the materials when choosing reading materials, so as to ensure that learners can fully read and understand the text and improve their reading ability.

difficulty

The difficulty of language includes grammar, vocabulary and sentence structure, so when paying attention to this problem, we must grasp whether the grammatical difficulty of the selected materials is suitable for learners at a certain stage; Whether the number and scope of vocabulary are sufficient; Whether the sentence patterns of the materials are diverse.

interesting

The interest of the text is an important factor in choosing reading materials. Interest is the motivation for learners to read, and materials that are attractive to learners can be digested and absorbed even if they are slightly difficult, because such materials stimulate learners' thirst for knowledge and curiosity, which also makes them have the enthusiasm for reading.

realness

When choosing reading materials, we should give priority to articles written by native English speakers aimed at improving the authenticity of native readers. Considering the reading level of learners, you can also choose some slightly rewritten books published in Britain and the United States. When learners read the real text, their previous knowledge, interest and curiosity are stimulated together, which can directly lead to the success of reading.

broad

Extensive reading can help learners broaden their horizons and gain extensive knowledge. Therefore, the content of reading materials should reflect the history, people, customs and cultural customs of the mother-tongue country, and there should be fashionable content, so as to be as close to life as possible, covering all aspects of daily life, with diverse genres, such as fairy tales, poems, film and television scripts, celebrity speeches, news reports, comments, and even trains, planes, timetables, recipes, etc.
