Literature Club
​Literature Appreciation
Su Shi once said: The life is wrapped in a thick cloth, and the belly is full of poetry and literature.
Bing Xin said: Students should "read more, read well, and read well".
This shows the importance of reading.
​
"There are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand readers." Reading exchanges can help the understanding of books and even the establishment of a world view.
​
Reading can not only increase a person's knowledge, but the increasing literary knowledge is also a sublimation from the inner spirit to the outer temperament.
​
From politics, national culture, personal identity awareness, to ancient and modern Chinese and foreign classics...
​
Jiarui's new "Literary Appreciation" provides a comprehensive appreciation and reading of books recommended by private schools in the United States.
​

It is more suitable for junior and high school students who are about to enter / intend to enter American colleges and universities, and can better integrate into the local campus culture.
​
