Title
Spanish for Reading: A SelfInstructional Course (Barron's Foreign Language Guides),New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
A unique approach to Spanish reading comprehension, Spanish for Reading can be used as a textbook supplement in classrooms or by anybody who is teaching himself Spanish. It begins by demonstrating similarities between words and parts of words in Spanish and English, and proceeds to offer practical instruction that will help readers broaden recognition of words and phrases. Each of the book's fifteen chapters concludes with a reading passage, the first of them quite easy to comprehend, and successive passages increasingly complex and sophisticated. Early passages are simple essays on Spain's and the Spanishspeaking world's language, geography, and culture. Later passages are excerpts from wellknown works by world renowned Spanish writers, including Jorge Luis Borges, Pablo Neruda, and Gabriel GarciaMarquez. Students who use this volume methodically will ultimately be reading and understanding these passages in their original, unedited Spanish, without need to seek outside help. Short of spending time in Spain or Latin America, here is as good an introduction to Spanish culture as a student will be able to find anywhere. Photos and line drawings.
