This unique edition of The Great Gatsby from Dead Dodo Vintage includes the full original text as well as exclusive features not available in other editions. The Great Gatsby is a 1925 novel written by American author F. Scott Fitzgerald that follows a cast of characters living in the fictional town of West Egg on prosperous Long Island in the summer of 1922. The story primarily concerns the young and mysterious millionaire Jay Gatsby and his quixotic passion for the beautiful Daisy Buchanan. Considered to be Fitzgerald's magnum opus, The Great Gatsby explores themes of decadence, idealism, resistance to change, social upheaval, and excess, creating a portrait of the Jazz Age that has been described as a cautionary tale regarding the American Dream. Fitzgerald, inspired by the parties he had attended while visiting Long Island's north shore, began planning the novel in 1923 desiring to produce, in his words, "something newsomething extraordinary and beautiful and simple and intricately patterned." Progress was slow with Fitzgerald completing his first draft following a move to the French Riviera in 1924. His editor, Maxwell Perkins, felt the book was too vague and convinced the author to revise over the next winter. Fitzgerald was ambivalent about the book's title, at various times wishing to re-title the novel Trimalchio in West Egg. First published by Scribner's in April 1925, The Great Gatsby received mixed reviews and sold poorly; in its first year, the book only sold 20,000 copies. Fitzgerald died in 1940, believing himself to be a failure and his work forgotten. His work, spearheaded by The Great Gatsby, experienced a revival during World War II, and the novel became a part of American high school curricula in the following decades. The book has remained popular since, leading to numerous stage and film adaptations. The Great Gatsby is widely considered to be a literary classic and a contender for the title "Great American Novel". The book is consistently ranked among the greatest works of American literature.

This Classic Edition contains the original version of "The Elements of Style" written by Cornell University English professor William Strunk Jr. Generations of college students and writers have learned the basics of grammar from this short primer over the years. It was rated "one of the 100 most influential books written in English" by Time in 2011, and iconic author Stephen King recommended it as a grammar handbook that all aspiring writers should read. Written one hundred years ago, "The Elements of Style" is a nostalgic link to a momentous time in American history that ushered in the Art Deco era and the Roaring Twenties. Many of the English grammar rules it cites are as relevant today as they were at the turn of the 20th century; but, one by one, these rules are becoming out-of-date This Classic Edition, updated as we head into 2017, is intended as a tribute to Prof. Strunk's enduring book. It follows the original version but includes these enhancements for today's readers: 1. Editorial notes have been inserted to indicate grammar rules now considered obsolete, and to provide brief insights on updated rules for present-day writers. 2. Easily recognizable symbols have been added to the grammar examples throughout the book so that readers can discern correctly written sentences from errors at a glance. 3. A Study Guide has been added at the conclusion of the book. 4. The paperback version includes blank, lined pages at the end for convenient note taking. 5. The digital version has been restyled for improved display on all modern e-book readers.

　　普通高等教育“十一五”*规划教材《俄语阅读教程》（全套六册）自面世以来，承蒙全国诸多高校俄语专业广大师生的厚爱，先后多次重印，2011年还被评为江苏省高等学校精品教材。在本次印刷之际，我们应出版社之约对本套教程的课文内容和编写体例都做了全面修订。本次修订的主要依据是全国高等学校外国语言类专业教学指导委员会俄语专业教学指导分委会编写的第二版《高等学校俄语专业教学大纲》（2012年）。《俄语阅读教程（1-2册）》分别供高校本科生二年级第1和第2学期阅读课教学使用，也适用于掌握2000个单词、并初步通晓俄语语法基础知识的俄语自学者。 　　本教程的课文全部选自俄罗斯新近出版的书籍和报刊，选材新颖，内容广博，题材广泛，既有贴近大学生校园生活的题材，如俄罗斯大学生的学习、生活和流行时尚等，也有为人们所广泛关注的俄罗斯风俗习惯、文学艺术、科学技术、社会生活、婚姻家庭、教育体制、人口问题、政治人物、历史文化等方面的素材。课文以反映俄罗斯现实生活为主，同时兼顾文化传统内容。这样可以将语言学习贯穿在了解现实生活和文化传统知识的过程中，贯穿在思考和探讨与之相关的各种问题的过程中。课文内容新颖，趣味性强，语言规范、贴近生活、实用性强。课文体裁多样，既有童话故事、幽默小说、人物传记等文学作品，又有记叙、说明、议论、公文、访谈等其他样式，语体兼顾书面语和口语。 　　本套（两册）教程均由14个单元组成，每个单元包括两篇（或两篇以上）同一主题、但语料不同的课文。我们根据由浅深、循序渐的原则编排单元。除了测试单元只配有课文导读和练习外，其他每个单元都分为五个部分，结构如下： 　　1）课文导读：每一单元的篇都有一段简短的导读，扼要说明课文将涉及的主题。目的在于提高阅读兴趣，让学生带着问题去阅读。 　　2）课文：每个单元的课文分为两部分：*课为基本课文，第二课为补充课文。基本课文供学生课前阅读，教师在课堂上通过练习检验学生对课文内容和某些常用词语的掌握程度，并行必要的讲解。补充课文供学生当堂阅读。对基本课文的材料要求学生行“细读”，而补充课文的材料则要求学生“略读”即可。基本课文和补充课文篇幅平均为1000-1200词，每课课文的阅读时间均应控制在半小时以内。为了适当降低阅读难度，以便学生顺利阅读，我们还在课文中添加了必要的脚注。 　　3）生词注解：我们以第二版《高等学校俄语专业教学大纲》附录八中的词汇为基本依据列出生词。生词用中文释义，给出的是单词在上下文中的意思。对课文中用于转义的一些常用词汇，我们依次列出其转义和本义。课文平均生词率不超过3%。 　　4）固定词组和短语表：我们以第二版《高等学校俄语专业教学大纲》附录九中的熟语为依据列出固定词组和短语。表中的词组和短语用中文释义。对含有多个义项的常用词组和短语，我们依次列出上下文义及其他义项。 　　5）练习题：练习的设计从有利于提高学生的阅读理解能力和好语言基础的角度出发，采用选择题、填空题、问答题、连线题、判断题和翻译题等多种题型结合的方式。重检验学生对课文内容和某些常用词语的掌握程度。在题型上考虑学生参加四级水平测试的实际需要，设计了部分针对四级测试的练习，以帮助学生逐渐熟悉统测形式。需要说明的是，补充课文的练习是针对学生的“略读”方法而设计的，因此我们在补充课文的练习中只编排了对错选择和问答这两种题型。 　　两册的*后一个单元皆为测试单元。其课文篇幅及其生词率，都是根据大纲规定的具体要求行设计的。各篇课文的阅读时间均应控制在三十分钟之内。
