Penguin Readers is a series of simplified novels, film novelizations and original titles that introduce students at all levels to the pleasures of reading in English. Originally designed for teaching English as a foreign language, the series' combination of high interest level and low reading age makes it suitable for both English-speaking teenagers with limited reading skills and students of English as a second language. Many titles in the series also provide access to the pre-20th century literature strands of the National Curriculum English Orders. "Penguin Readers" are graded at seven levels of difficulty, from "Easystarts" with a 200-word vocabulary, to Level 6 (Advanced) with a 3000-word vocabulary. In addition, titles fall into one of three sub-categories: "Contemporary", "Classics" or "Originals". At the end of each book there is a section of enjoyable exercises focusing on vocabulary building, comprehension, discussion and writing. Some titles in the series are available with an accompanying audio cassette, or in a book and cassette pack. Additionally, selected titles have free accompanying "Penguin Readers Factsheets" which provide stimulating exercise material for students, as well as suggestions for teachers on how to exploit the Readers in class.
約翰•巴肯(John Buchan)
當過政治傢,英國保守黨國會議員,律師,齣版商,也參過軍。他以創作驚險故事而著稱,其中以理查德•漢內係列的懸疑小說最為經典。

約翰•巴肯是希區柯剋最喜歡的作傢之一。第一次讀到《三十九級颱階》時,希區柯剋說:“從我第一次讀約翰•巴肯的《三十九級颱階》起,就覺得它一定能被拍成一部偉大的電影。”1935年,希區柯剋將其改編成電影,由奧斯卡影帝羅伯特•多納特主演。這部電影成瞭影史上最經典的懸疑片之一。
大概应该算是硬汉侦探,类似于阿婆的汤米和塔彭丝冒险故事。的确很有画面感,很好拍成电影,不过也有些人物的心理活动啥的,这些怎么用影像表达呢? 在这样的故事里直觉总是很重要,看到一个人就直觉他是好人,另一个就直觉是坏人,总觉得用这种方式让事情朝着正确的方...
評分说到《39级台阶》,大家首先想到的都是电影,而大多数内地观众更是最先想到1978年的美国版本,该版本经过上译的经典配音,为观众留下了极为深刻的印象,童自荣的华丽音色和电影本身的紧张情节都曾让人痴迷,即使现在看也不过时。而电影结尾的大笨钟桥段更是成为了被不断致敬的...
評分 評分“希区柯克同名电影经典原著,四次改编同名电影•百老汇舞台屡获殊荣之作,英国文学史上经典悬疑间谍小说”一系列的殊荣和光耀都给这本《三十九级台阶》的阅读奠定了不凡的基调,除去这些经久不衰,再看这本短小的被称为是“一毛钱小说”的书可以被认为是精悍了。 ...
