※ 引述《jocelyn0109 (jocelyn0109)》之銘言:
: 最近想要看文法書
: 大家很推薦的:
: Understanding and Using English Grammar - Zara藍皮書這本
: 發現它出到第四版了耶
: 板上的資訊都是第三版的 ..
: 請問有板友買過第四版的嗎? 跟第三版會差很多嗎?
: ="=畢竟第四版比第三版貴阿...
: 而且還有分中英 英英 ...讀起來應該沒差吧?!
: 感謝!
3rd or 4th?
If I had not gotten the blue book,
I would probably go get the fourth edition,
provided that the price is reasonable.
On the other hand,
since the English grammar doesn't get updated once every few years,
maybe there is no such a dire need to get the LATEST edition,
unless it comes with a HELPFUL Software, CD, or DVD
that justifies the additional cost.
By the way,
do you know that many U.S. textbook publishers do that
all the time as a strategy to prevent students
from buying used books for their classes?
For them, a best selling textbook is like a cash cow,
one way to milk it is to UPDATE it once every few years.
Since the publishers only sell the most current edition
and since it is relatively difficult to order good quality used books in bulk,
most classrooms typically surrender to such a business strategy
and pay up wads of money as a result.
English version or Chinese version?
Of course water may get into our nostrils and make us choke once in a while,
and surely it is psychologically comforting
to hold on to something we're familiar with;
I know I may be stoned for saying this,
but isn't it time to let go of our swim rings
if we are serious about swimming?
Azar books are written for ESL people,
so they are already explaining grammatical concepts in simple english.
If I don't find myself understanding
the English texts in the blue book,
maybe the correct thing to do is to settle for the black
or even the red book for the time being.
There is absolutely no shame in this thing; like many people,
I learned it the hard way. Believe me, take my word for it
and get the English version.
If you find yourself totally alone in this thing, check this site out, and
think about why the rest of the world is learning English the "HARDER" way.
Maybe, I am just guessing here, there is no other way?
