黄源深主编的《阅读教程（2学生用书）》紧扣《大学英语课程教学要求》，聚焦阅读课的中心任务，集中提高学生获取信息的能力和阅读理解能力，并让学生通过自主学习提高对四、六级考试阅读题的解题能力。注重人文主义教育，通过选取生动有趣的故事，突出向善、向上、爱人、助人、乐观进取、服务社会等主题，使学生在学习语言的同时塑造自己的性格，发展健康的个性，提高自身素质。注意为学生自主学习创造条件，除了注重课文的趣味性之外，还特别设计了Reading for Pleasure部分，提供小故事、小幽默、文字游戏等材料，使学生想读、爱读，以便养成阅读习惯。注重跟踪学生的阅读理解能力，每个单元的结尾都有多道阅读理解自测题，并附有总分统计，方便学生随时自测，了解自己的阅读理解能力。
