内容简介

　　《英美概况（专升本）》介绍了英国、美国的地理概貌、历史背景、政治制度、经济概况、科学技术、文化传统、体育娱乐、宗教信仰、风俗习惯及社会生活等方面的基本知识，有助于学习者了解英美的思维方式、价值观念及生活方式，更好地掌握和运用英语语言，加深对语言和文化的理解，增强对文化差异的敏感性，提高分析和评价能力，达到扩大知识面、巩固和提高英语水平之目的。《英美概况（专升本）》受教育部师范司委托，由高等教育出版社组织编写和出版。1999年在武汉华中师范大学召开的全国师范“专升本”英语教材编写会议上，与会代表对《英美概况》一书提出了很好的编写原则，概括起来有两点：一是以比较的视角来编写《英美概况》。这样学员可以在学习过程中有比较地掌握知识、内容。二是强调知识的规范性和准确性。根据上述原则，《英美概况（专升本）》在编写过程中力图符合中学英语教师及其他考生的实际需要和实际水平，做到语言通俗易懂、内容新颖、趣味性强。考虑到学生已学过专科英语课程，具备一定的英语基础，因此，注释用英语。为让学生能在课堂教学中更好地理解、消化所学内容，每章节后面还附有讨论题和术语解释。另外，考虑到一般师范院校已开设英美文学课程，故未把英美文学的内容列入《英美概况（专升本）》。
