内容简介
《环球时代美文读本》（Global Times Readers）系列丛书旨在为广大英语中高阶学习者提供一套提高语言质量、增强人文修养、拓展学习视野的优质辅助读本。内容涉及文学、文化、哲学、社会、生活等各个方面，编者从众多经典作品和报刊时文中遴选出难度适宜、有针对性的文章，在帮助读者领会英美语言文化魅力的同时，客观上对学生通过普通英语四六级、英语专业四八级、考研英语和英语专业考研有所裨益。丛书共分为六大主题，每个主题根据难易度分为诵读本（Memorable Words）和赏析本( Thought-provoking Words)。大部分中级英语学习者面临语言贫乏的困境，通过诵读本练习发音、提升语感、活学活用。而高阶英语学习者主要陷入由东西方文化差异造成的语言障碍中，无法用地道的英语随心所欲地表达思想观点，通过赏析本可以培养审美情趣，提高专业素养。本册《捕捉伟大思想的英语文字（诵读本）》所选文章全出自人类历史上伟大的思想家、哲学家、政治家等等之手。文章体裁主要为议论文、小品文、杂文和随笔等。主题内容涉及生活、人生、生命、死亡、爱情、自由、读书等方方面面、大大小小的各种问题，清晰而客观地呈现了各个时期思想家们的智慧
