The main objective of ADESSO.t, A Functional Approach to Italian is to allow<br > beginning students of Italian the opportunity to learn how to understand and use<br > the language in different situations. For this reason, the structure and content of<br > each chapter are shaped by functional notions. In addition, each chapter in the text,<br > as well as the corresponding chapter in the workbook, provides ample opportunity<br > for the student to develop formal skills through the grammar presentations and<br > activities.<br > The term functional in this book has two meanings. First of all, it expresses the<br > view that students need to know language forms and communicative notions in<br >order to carry out certain functions, i.e., routines encountered in everyday life.<br >Thus, for example, if one were to order a coffee at a bar, the functional approach<br >would determine the structures and communicative tasks required to carry out this<br >particular social scenario.<br > Secondly, most of the activities in which students practice what has been intro-<br >duced in a specific section of a chapter are designed as functional, i.e., they involve<br >the student in some activity based on that particular function, such as ordering<br >coffee.<br > This book is the product of over twenty years of teaching beginning Italian at all<br >levels of education, from the elementary school to the university. It contains ideas<br >and material developed over these years that have been found to work well with a<br >wide range of student learning styles. Most of the material has been "tested out" in<br >various high school and university classrooms in the city of Toronto and its<br >surrounding regions. Only those features found to be successful year after year have<br >been incorporated into the framework of the text.<br > I would like to thank my students and colleagues, all of whom have given me<br >their precious feedback over the years. There are simply too many to mention by<br >name here. I would like to express my deep gratitude to the expert editorial staff at<br >Heinle & Heinle, and especially to Erika Skantz, Julianna Nielsen, Mary Root<br >Taucher, and Stan Galek, for providing me with valuable insights, suggestions, and<br >most important of all, encouragement, during the long and laborious development<br >of this book. I would also like to thank the following people who reviewed the<br >manuscript:<br >Walter Blue, Hamline University<br >Brian O Connor, Boston College<br >Diane Musumeci, University of Illinois<br >Thomas Cravens, University of Wisconsin<br >Louis A. Bruno, Cranston High School<br >Thomas Cox, San Diego State University<br >Laura DiGregorio<br >Giovanna Miceli Jeffries, University of Wisconsin<br >Annamaria Moneti, Syracuse University<br >Marcello Scarsella, Snowden International High School<br >Beth Wellington, Simmons College<br > Finally, I express my appreciation to the designer, Jane Carey; the native<br >readers, Alessandra Crainz and Lucia Conti; the proofreaders, David Baker and<br >Grisel Lozano-Garcini; and to Nicole Baker for additional editorial help.<br > I truly hope that students and teachers alike will find this course to be a reward-<br >ing learning experience. Adesso, let s begin!<br >

我发现这本书的排版设计极其精妙,它展现了一种对阅读体验的深刻理解。字体大小的选择恰到好处,行距的宽松度拿捏得非常到位,使得长段落的阅读也变得轻松自如,眼睛可以自然地在文字间流畅地滑动,不会产生任何卡顿或疲惫感。更值得称赞的是页边距的处理,它没有像一些现代设计那样过度压缩文字,而是留出了足够的空间,这不仅让视觉呼吸顺畅,也为读者留下了“思考的空间”——那种阅读时偶尔需要停下来,让思绪飘一会儿的间隙。整体设计语言是克制而优雅的,没有任何花哨的装饰分散注意力,所有设计元素都旨在服务于核心——那就是让作者的思想能够最直接、最纯粹地传递到读者的脑海中。这种低调的精致,比任何浮夸的封面设计都要有力得多,体现了出版者对内容本身的尊重。
评分从一个纯粹的“工具书”角度来看,这本书的耐用性简直无可挑剔。我经常需要带着书在不同的研讨会和咖啡馆之间穿梭,过去很多书的脊背没多久就开始开裂,或者封面因为频繁的弯折而留下难看的折痕。但这本书的装订工艺明显是按照承受高强度使用的标准来制作的。即便是多次完全摊开平放,书脊的压力也分布得十分均匀,没有出现那种让人心惊胆战的“咯吱”声。这种对物理承载力的关注,意味着我不用担心在重要的章节做标记时,会因为过度用力而损伤它。它不是那种放在玻璃柜里供人瞻仰的艺术品,而是一本真正可以被“使用”的知识载体,它的坚固,是对阅读过程本身的一种承诺和支持。
评分这本书的装帧简直是为那些真正热爱纸质书的读者准备的。硬壳的质感拿在手里沉甸甸的,那种触感让人踏实,仿佛作者的智慧就凝固在这厚实的封面之下。我尤其欣赏它所使用的纸张,那种略带米黄色的纹理,不仅减轻了阅读时的视觉疲劳,更赋予了书籍一种历经岁月的沉淀感。翻页时的那种轻微的沙沙声,是电子阅读器永远无法替代的感官享受。每一次小心翼翼地打开它,都像是在揭开一个尘封已久的秘密。对于那些习惯在书页边缘做下思考批注的人来说,这种高质量的装订和纸张提供了完美的画布,即便是最浓墨重彩的标记,也不会渗到下一页去破坏阅读的连贯性。可以说,仅仅是拥有它,就已经完成了一次仪式感的启动,让人对接下来的文字内容充满了敬畏与期待。这绝对不是那种可以随手丢弃的快消品,它注定是书架上可以长久伫立的珍藏。
评分我必须承认,我是一个对书籍的“气味”有着近乎偏执要求的人。这本书散发出的那种独特的油墨与纸张混合的味道,是任何扫描件或电子版都无法复制的。那是一种混合了时间、印刷工艺和纸浆纤维的味道,每次翻开它,这种气味都会轻轻地涌上来,立刻将我从当前的环境中抽离出来,带入到作者构建的世界里。这种嗅觉记忆一旦建立,就会与书中的内容紧密绑定,形成一种独特的个人体验。这种对多感官体验的满足,是阅读高质量实体书的终极魅力所在。它不仅仅是信息的传递者,更是一个完整的、可以被身体感知的对象,让人感觉自己是真正拥有并沉浸在了这份知识之中。
评分这本书的重量感和分量,带来的心理暗示是巨大的。在信息碎片化的今天,我们习惯了快速浏览和即时获取,但这本书拿在手上,那种实体带来的重量感,自然而然地会迫使你放慢速度,进入一种更深入、更沉思的状态。它提醒着你,你正在处理的是经过深思熟虑、需要时间消化的知识体系,而不是社交媒体上转瞬即逝的口号。这种“重”,不仅是物理上的重量,更是思想上的分量。它为你构建了一个阅读的“结界”,一旦进入,外界的喧嚣似乎都被这实体感所隔绝。对于那些渴望进行系统性学习和深度批判性思考的人来说,这本书的物理形态本身就是一种有力的辅助工具,它在无形中设定了阅读的基调——严肃而专注。
