Description

A WeChat public account created to deliver weekly supplementary articles for an English and American literature course at Guangdong University of Foreign Studies. Each of the 12 weekly articles comprises five parts: "lead-in, keywords explanation and translation, writers’ or poets’ information, extended readings and comments on each week’s theme."
